Van Crest Animal Hospital

In the last 6 months, I have had two seperate urgent visits with 2 of my 4 animals. I have met several of the staff, including both Dr. C and Dr. Chambers! They are amazing, very personable, very caring, and took EXCELLENT care of my fur babies. They also ensured they explained to me what was needed with home care and would be able to give them the medicine they needed when sent home. I am especially thankful for them and their expert care of Princess Tigris, my cat. She became very ill, very quickly and upon getting her in and Dr. C checking her, she found a leg wound. It was very scary, and I truly thought my girl was not gonna make it. Dr. C and her team pulled my girl through it. They had to keep her there for 3 weeks, which was hard but that is where she needed to be! She was finally able to come home, although still crated and still with the cone on. We had her first follow up today and while she is not completely healed, she is on the mend! I am so thankful for each one of them and their staff!

I’ve gotten my cat JiJi and dog Niko both neutered here and both had a great experience! I didn’t have the best experience with Columbia Animal Shelter Spaying my other dog Onyx so I was worried how the recovery would look for JiJi and Niko but so far everything is great! The tech that did the intake for both JiJi and Niko is sooo nice! I believe her name is Jordan but I could be wrong. She was very loving to both of them and cared about our concerns regarding Nikos overwhelming anxiety. As for Onyx’s experience getting her shots here everything went well! She is dog reactive and immediately after notifying the other tech that called her back she took note of the situation to ensure nothing would go wrong (she even let us pay in the room so Onyx could go straight out!) The doctor examined Onyx and noted areas of concern but also areas where we are doing well. After Onyx he walked us through the steps for Niko after his surgery and gave us plenty of resources to aid Niko through his stress along side medication. Overall I enjoyed this vet very much, they have the cheapest prices in the area yet they don’t act like a cheap vet!

We just love this place. Our fur baby has seen both Mr. and Mrs. Dr. Chambers, and they are wonderful. Knowledgeable and fair- easily the best vets we have ever had. The nurses are so patient and love on my girl the way I do. You can tell everyone in that office genuinely cares for the good of all pets. Honest, patient, and willing to help any pet- Look no further- Van Crest is the best. Thank you!! ❤️❤️

This vet and his whole staff are my hero’s. About a month ago I had to rush my 15 year old pup to the er I made it just in time to have to say goodbye. 2 days later I got a call from a lady that was supposed to be watching my other 2 while I was dealing with the death and cremation of the other one telling me I need to hurry up and come get my 9 year old the son of the 15 year old. That a cable got wrapped around his arm and they thought it was broke long story short no it wasn’t broke that cable had been wrapped around his a for 4 days and was dead I took him to the er already knowing his leg was gone but I had them start the antibiotics through iv while I looked for a surgeon I called 3 and got told $1500 to $4000 but when I called van crest and told them my story the tech took down my info and I had the er send his file to them They called me back and said $900 $400 down and the rest by Monday all because they have a big heart. They did a wonderful job and my boy is doing excellent. I could never repay them for what they done.

Van Crest is the only place I trust with my fur babies. We have 2 cats, Willow & Zoie plus a new rescue Stratfordshire bull terrier, Ruff. Both Dr C’s are caring, compassionate, and thorough in taking care of their needs. We had made "the" hard decision for our previous 13 yr old fur baby, Spock and they were so loving and caring during the whole process. They made it as easy as they could under the circumstances. I highly recommend this practice to take good care of your fur babies.

My animals have been patients since 2012. Lost my sweet pups 2017-2019 and BOTH Dr. Candra and Dr. Nick Chambers were awesome from their initial visits up until the last days. Caring, smart and very personable. I recently adopted a new pup which I was certain I'd never do but Dr. Candra said I would. She knew! They are still the same wonderful doctors and humans 6 years later. I have nothing to compare it to but the fee for service then and now is worth it for the amazing care my sweet Gracie, Patrick, Trip and now Sadie have received. Thank you to the doctors and team!! Nowhere else I'd go.

My baby is a three-year-old lab mix and has had to deal with anxiety when going to different places and meeting new people. This place had so much patience with her, and Dr. Chambers was very informative and knew how to approach her. The young woman who understood my dog's needs (I'm sorry I forgot her name) is AMAZING. My fur baby left in good spirits and stuffed with treats.
