Animal Wellness Center - Santa Fe

We drove up to Santa Fe just to see Dr. Abernathy. She took her time to meet us and our newly diagnosed Oaklie. She’s lost her sight and wanted more info as we navigate this new life for her. Incredible experience and will be back for continued care.

I've taken my pet here in the past. My cat was diagnosed with cat herpes virus. I was given a supplement to give him to curb the flare ups. After about a year he had a really bad flare up. I looked online and all sources stated that this should go away in 1 to 2 weeks. I wanted to call the doctor to confirm this. Rather than just say yes this should subside eventually or no this won't and he'll need additional treatment they refused to answer that question in an attempt to get me to come in and give them money. Absolutely pathetic. I will be going to a different vet from now on.

We love Dr. Apodaca and Bailey! They’ve been so responsive and wonderful to work with over the years. We get the two dogs (one mini poodle and one Aussie poodle) teeth cleaned every other year and shots done there. They are a great team that work there and always professional. The prices are similar to other places in town but with better service. We love coming here

We used to take our dogs here when Dr. Moreau owned it 2 years ago and it was great but since it changed ownership the prices went way up. When I called on a Friday to see if the could get my dog in they told me not until Monday and there would be an additional "urgent care" fee. 3 days later it was still urgent care 🤔 We now go to Eldorado

Love this vet office. Dental work is way too expensive. It starts at $900 and runs about $70 per extraction, among other charges. 🙃 Absolutely phenomenal service and care for animals, though! My dog recovered incredibly well, and they were available for all my questions and any follow needed. They even have nice heated kennels for puppy recovery. Nice place!

Feels like all this practice cares about is money. $1,500.00 for extracting my dog’s teeth (which I was never advised of beforehand) & a cleaning. Other negative things happened which I’d rather not get into, but I am definitely changing vets. Not a very friendly atmosphere, I got attitude when I couldn’t remember the name of my dog’s food. Shame because I really liked this practice with the previous vet. After an email request for my dog’s records they have yet to send me the records.

EXTREMELY DISHONEST VETERINARY CLINIC. Prior to taking our 2 pets to the clinic to get their kennel cough vaccine, we called to get the cost of the visit. We were told it would be about 30 dollars per pet. We asked if there would be an office visit charge and we were told there would not be. Then they charged us $160.00 and were told there is about a $100.00 tech visit charge for the tech to administer the shots to 2 dogs. They also wanted us to subject our old dog, who has no trouble eating hard food and treats, to a several thousand dollar tooth cleaning, which at our dog's age is an unacceptable anesthesia risk. **** EDIT: I read your response which does not relieve you from the responsibility to be honest with your customers when they inquire about charges. To tell your customers one thing (about charges) and to do another is a dishonest, shady business practice. And, regarding the dental issue- a highly respected doctor said YOU TREAT THE PATIENT, YOU DON'T TREAT THE X-RAY. It would behoove you to ask about the dog's functional dental status including any questions about eating habits and symptoms of dental problems before rushing to a costly and potentially hazardous procedure under general anesthesia.
