Very nice staff, but I wish there had been more transparency about the medical decisions and better communication regarding the prescribed medications. I brought my 9-year-old dog in for his first-ever ear infection. Despite having no history of atopic dermatitis or allergies, he was prescribed Numelvi. When I asked about the medication, I was told it was a steroid, when it is actually a JAK inhibitor indicated for atopic dermatitis. When I asked about Claro, the ear medication he received, I was directed to read the label myself. I understand medications could be used off-label, and the technician was doing the best she could to explain everything, and everyone was very friendly. However, I wish the treatment decisions had been better explained by the vet, especially the rationale behind the prescribed medications.

Hi Jim, Thank you for your 5-star review! We love your feedback and especially your kind words.
We took our baby Rahman there. Very friendly, clean. They are straight to the point and they do their job as if they have protocols in place, which I loved.

Save yourself a bunch of money AND get better treatment for your pet. GO ANYWHERE ELSE! They will nickle and dime you and insist on unnecessary treatments especially x-rays and ultrasound. It's like buying a car from a dealership. They will push the money making procedures but don't understand that some people have a good understanding of medicine and how it's supposed to work. What these clowns are doing is what they do to us in our human health plans. Overcharging and unnecessary BS. It's out of control but we are forced to take it, and we mainly do, because of insurance. You've been warned. Take your pet somewhere else.

We recently moved from St. Bernard Parish back to Orleans Parish and, unfortunately, the previous owners of our new house also left us an unexpected housewarming gift... fleas! We have five indoor cats who all started scratching, and since they were also due for their vaccinations, I knew there was no way I was going to stuff five already stressed cats into carriers after such a traumatic move. Thankfully, I found Clearview Animal Hospital and their mobile veterinary service. From the very first phone call to the day of our appointment, their communication was outstanding. They made the entire process so easy and reassuring. Dr. Edmunds and her veterinary technician, Nikkie, came to our home and were absolutely wonderful. They were kind, patient, and incredibly gentle with all five cats, not to mention they handled two extremely nervous cat parents who couldn't stop bickering! They never made us feel rushed and treated our cats with so much compassion. I can't recommend Clearview Animal Hospital highly enough. Their staff is fantastic, and their in-home veterinary service is an absolute lifesaver for anyone with anxious pets or multiple animals. We are so grateful we found them!
The docs and staff at Clearview Veterinary are the best. They always greet you with a smile and are eager to help. Genuinely concerned about the wellbeing of our pet. Thank you Clearview Veterinary!

Hi Keith! Thank you so much for your 5 star review and for taking the time to share your experience. We are so happy that your fur baby is feeling better now. We truly appreciate your kind words about our team and practice!
My dog may be scared coming to the vet, but everyone who works here is very amazing and sweet
Met Dr Hecker and Kailey, can't remember Dr Hecker's nurse's name, but they were all amazing. You can tell everyone there loves the animals. Can't recommend them enough!!! Dr Edmond, her tech and everyone I talked to at the office, were awesome. Had a mobile home visit because our cat gets stressed leaving the house. He is also a squirming octopus for doctors. They handled him easily, gently and compassionately while checking out his eye. They made it look easy (He wasn't too happy). He is now over it and talking to a lizard on the outside of our kitchen window. They were outstanding; if you need a vet, call them. They'll take care of your fur babies.
Thank you, Ray! We’re so glad we could make the visit easier and we appreciate your kind words about the team!
