Southside Animal Hospital

everyone is nice for the most part. however they drop the ball pretty often. i recommend choosing another practice if you’re pet has chronic issues that need regular attention. they are equipped enough for yearly checkups at best. you will be waiting around the phone in the event of an emergency or deferred to the ER clinics that nobody can afford. the front desk & techs don’t communicate the best either, so be sure to take your own notes so you’re able to follow along, & hold people accountable.

I really trust Dr. Joyce with my pet family. I'm always confident with her diagnosis. Her staff is the best and will treat you well. They love the animals, you can really tell, so I wouldn't worry about taking your beloved pets there. They don't try to pad the bill with a lot of stuff, and if they say tests and meds are needed, then they are. The office has always been clean and looks well taken care of. I highly recommend this office if you're looking for a veterinary clinic.

My dog had surgery recently, and I can't say enough good things about the staff! They were so kind and attentive, and it really made all the difference. I often get anxious when I have to leave my pets, but this veterinarian put my mind at ease. I felt completely comfortable knowing my pup was in good hands!

I have a Morkie and she has had a terrible cough for about a week. I spoke to Teresa on 1/8 but she said she had to call me back and on 1/9 she still hadn’t called me back. I then called the office again and she asked if I "got her message", No, I never received a message! I need a vet who calls me back when I’m concerned and trying to get my pet in to see a vet. I see 5 stars above, which one day I would have given them those 5 stars, however, right now I give them maybe 2 **. So hard to understand when your pet has had a problem for over a week and then get the promise "calling you back" and never getting that call. When I called her back today, Jan. 9th she said "Did you get my message?". No, I did not get any messages from you or your office. I guess it’s time for me to move on. If you have had great service there, good for you. For me and my pets, being a loyal customer for many, many years, I think it’s time for me to move on to a practice that can help my pets when they are in need.

Dr. Joyce and ALL of the staff are literally life-savers. Our dog, Goose, became very sick seemingly out of nowhere. Dr. Joyce was able to squeeze him in as an emergency case and stabilize him, diagnose the problem (liver failure), and get him on the road to recovery. It’s been a long road, but he is back living his best life and we’ve had Southside staff by our side the entire way. My wife and I have trusted Southside with both of our Standard Poodles over the last few years and would recommend them to anyone seeking a comprehensive and personal experience for both you and your pet.

A friend recommended this clinic and I made an appointment.. I haven’t taken my dogs anywhere else and I will not. Dr Joyce had a special relationship with my girl, Roxy. She made her transition across the bridge as good as could be expected. I now have two other girls that are patients here as well. Communication is always clear and straight forward. I appreciate that. I never feel pressured into all kinds of testing or medications either (as opposed to other clinics). I trust what Dr Joyce tells me implicitly as she always has my dogs’ best interest in mind. 10/10 would recommend

This Vet is a very caring and friendly atmosphere. I highly recommend especially if your pet needs Euthanasia. They made the whole process easier for our family and our family cat.
