Parker Animal & Bird Clinic

As a dog owner, I know how expensive vet visits can be these days. A friend recommended Parker Animal and Bird Clinic, and I’m glad I gave them a try. They offer discounted vaccination services every first weekend of the month, which is really helpful for pet owners on a budget. The only downside is that it gets very crowded, so be prepared to wait an hour or two before your pet is seen. Also, this clinic mainly focuses on vaccinations rather than full pet treatment services. Overall, it’s still a great affordable option, and it would be even better if they had a larger facility to accommodate more people and pets.

They helped my duck with his foot and happy to day he's doing much better now!

My rabbit began showing signs that something was wrong Sunday evening. He didn't want his favorite foods and didn't seem to be eating or pooping. I took him here at 8:15 this morning. They told me they were already full for walk-ins. A woman at the desk (based on his symptoms) said the symptoms were critical. Another female said she would look at him. She looked at him for less than a minute, and determined he was stable - and not critical. She said I could come back at 1 and try to get in again by 2. I called another exotic vet and made an appointment for 1. I didn't want to take the chance of not getting in again, but since she said he looked stable, I waited instead of finding an emergencyclinic. My poor rabbit died because they decided he wasn't critical this morning! I have had my rabbit for 7 years. I have an absolutely heartbroken 10 year old. I would not recommend seeing this office for any type of emergency. I am very upset that maybe he could have been saved had the vet taken a look at him in between patients to make sure he wasn't in critical condition!

This place used to be wonderful, and we have enjoyed bringing all of our pets here for years. However, recently, they do not even answer the phones to take appointments, and the only way to seemingly get an appointment is to show up in person, and visits are over 2 weeks out. Guess it is time to take the pets somewhere new sadly.

I called as soon as they opened to ask what they recommended in terms of the condition of my duck who I believe is showing signs of niacin deficiency. I explained that I had given her brewers yeast diluted in water all night as a form of rehab and asked if I should bring her in or if I was on the right path and could avoid adding travel stress to the duck. Their response was "we’re not going to give you free medical advice over the phone so you’ll need to come in and see the vet onsite." I show up 20-minutes later and they tell me that the vet that handles exotic pets is busy today and referred me to another facility on the other side of town. I understand business practices have to protect themselves financially but Jesus Christ…you’re in the wrong practice if you only do it for money and quite frankly I would have paid them over the phone for advice if that was an option but to waste my time and potentially increase the health risk of my pet just to send me across town is actually insane. Do better, care about the life of people’s pets!

We recently had to put our dog down, and they were so wonderful to us! I cannot express my gratitude enough for the care they gave him his whole life! Thank you so much!

Dr. Bethany Whetstone was absolutely incredible. She listened closely, took my concerns seriously, and made me feel truly heard. Her energy was warm, bubbly, professional, and comforting all at once. I felt completely at ease knowing my sweet little bunny was in the very best hands. This clinic is a rare gem, and I won’t be going anywhere else from now on. Thank you to Dr. Whetstone and the amazing team—you made a stressful day feel safe, supported, and even joyful. I’m so thankful
