These guys are great. I would say it's worth the extra drive time for your pets to be in good hands.

I like taking my Dog Allie to the Appalachian Animal Hospital for Grooming yesterday. Haylee Grooms her and does a really great job. I have been taking Allie there for grooming and medical care for 3 years and everyone there that I have interacted with has been very nice to Allie and I. I have taken my two cats pepper ( a boy cat) and Amelia my other cat there to. I like Dr. Norris she is friendly and knowledgeable. She is the only veterinarian there I take my Fur kids too. I would definitely recommend Appalachian Animal Hospital to anyone who asks me for a vet recommendation.

I have been bringing my pets to Appalachian Animal Hospital for several years. I am located in Buckhannon and make the drive to Elkins because I've always been very pleased with the care my animals have received. Their prices are also very reasonable compared to other vets we've seen.

Very rude when I came through the door .. Not very professional!!! My Destiny does need training and she needs medicine is why I brought her here, but I'm not giving these rude people my money for my person dog, heck to the no .. I'll give to Weston Veterinary Hospital because when I called there they were so nice and didn't make me feel like these people did .. So, no I don't like this place .. Rude
