Memphis Veterinary Specialists

It has taken me time to write this review. I was sent here as Sammy was unwell. I never thought I would leave without him. Never in a million years did I think that. However, when THE decision had to be made the doctor and staff were AMAZING. I was alone and they were patient, calm, professional and supportive. I never felt rushed or pressured and the room they let us say good-bye in had a sweet book about a dog named- Sammy. ❤️ I’m glad they were here when I needed them and I highly recommend them for care of your pet. Sammy was loved so very much and he is missed dearly. The photo of him was 5 days before he passed.

We drove in 3 1/2 hours from Arkansas for Dr. Huey to evaluate our Catahoula dog, Brieda’s, eye condition. Memphis Vet Specialists worked us in quickly. Dr. Huey and the staff were very knowledgeable, respectful and we appreciated the time taken to examine our girl and give a diagnosis with plan of treatment. Very professional and empathetic treatment considering the situation we were looking at with our pup’s eye. We return next week for Dr. Huey to perform surgery.

Dr Darryl King is one of the best vets I have ever encountered, in my 40 odd years of having a pet, mostly cats. If he is on duty and you are lucky enough to be assigned to his talented and skilled care, exhale and count yourself as being in GREAT hands. I wish he had his own private service so I could be one of his grateful clients there. Thank you Dr King and MVS.

We don’t have the words to express our gratitude and thanks to the this team. Our Doxie rapidly declined due to a herniated disc in her back. We rushed her 3 hours away to Memphis. We were shocked at the level of professionalism and expertise and the facility was better than many "human" hospitals I’ve been in. They took her in and treated her like she was their own. We got daily updates with pics and even a text from our baby. Plus, a winter storm moving in where we gout get back to get her for several days. It was no problem. They told us to come when it was safe. And to the people that just stayed there during the storm, you are amazing. Thank you so much for taking care of our little girl!!

I had to bring in my dog for an emergency visit the afternoon of 3/26/26. She was unable to eat or walk. They brought out a cart and rushed her back. They immediately put me in a room. One of the employees came to the room and explained what they are testing for. Then the doctor came in and explained my girl had a large splenic tumor. I had to face the fact it was time to let her go. Everyone was so kind, but I want to give extra thanks to Madison & Dr. Ackerman. They both explained every step in the process, from her ultrasound to the actual euthanasia. They allowed me as much time as I wanted with her before the euthanasia process started. Visiting the emergency vet is never fun but they made it a tad less painless. Thanks for letting my sweet girl's last moments with us be full of soft voices and kindness. ❤️

With a sick dog, one is already nervous and upset. All staff were friendly and helpful. The veterinarian we had was wonderful. Clear, concise, and excellent bedside manor. My dog was much better in 24 hours like they said. The will send the record to my primary vet to follow up on. Excellent! Would not hesitate to go again

Dr Huey is a wonderful ophthalmologist. She did cataract surgery on our doggie and it went smoothly. She now sees better than she has in so long. Cataracts kind of snuck up on us. Had no idea what a difference it would actually make. It's a pricey surgery but so very worth it. No need to look any further if you need a canine ophthalmologist. Dr Huey is the best.
