Dr. Angie was absolutely wonderful. I was honestly at a loss on what to do for my cat, and she took the time to really listen, research, and thoroughly evaluate what might be going on. She was incredibly caring and never made me feel rushed, explaining everything clearly and making sure I understood my options. Her bedside manner was excellent, and it was clear she truly cares about the animals she treats. The staff was just as kind and compassionate. Everyone I interacted with was patient, caring, and made a stressful situation feel much more manageable. I’m very grateful for the support and attention we received and would highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for a veterinary team that genuinely cares!

Providing compassionate care and making sure pet owners feel informed and comfortable is very important to us. We truly appreciate your kind words about our staff and your recommendation of our clinic!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this clinic. Dr. Sanders and her entire staff are incredibly thorough, kind, and genuinely care about every animal that comes through their doors. They truly go above and beyond. They saved my cat’s life in 2022, and I will never forget the compassion and urgency they showed during such a scary time. Recently when he started having another issue, they were quick to work him in and make sure he was taken care of right away, which meant the world to me. Having personally worked alongside Dr. Sanders in the past, I’ve seen firsthand the level of dedication, knowledge, and love she brings to work every single day. I know for a fact that any pet brought here is receiving the absolute best care possible. I’m beyond grateful for everything this team has done for my cat and for so many other animals. I truly can’t thank them enough. 🐾💙

Tatum, thank you so much for your incredibly kind and thoughtful words. It means a great deal to hear how much trust you place in our team, especially knowing you’ve seen firsthand the dedication and care that goes into helping every patient. We’re so grateful we could be there for your cat during such a frightening time in 2022 and again recently when he needed care. Hearing that he’s doing well means the world to us. Thank you for sharing your experience and for trusting our team to care for him.

Took our kitties Asher and Kaiser to Companion Animal Hospital of Lafayette after an emergency from them getting into a lily flower, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about our experience. Everyone was kind, helpful, and reassuring during a really stressful situation. Dr. Sanders did an amazing job keeping us updated on their condition even as late as 7PM, which meant a lot to us and helped ease our anxiety. Before they were ready to be picked up, they were even bathed and returned home clean, which was such a thoughtful touch after everything they went through. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience during a scary time, and we would absolutely trust our cats with them again if we ever needed emergency care in the future. Highly recommend.

I didn't go to this vet until I had a problem with my dog ( a 90 lb lab mix named Beau) and needed help. It felt like Beau was their only patient every appointment we went to. None of the appointments were emergency but they still had multiple staff in the room to assist. It was like that 1 dog was their whole priority. They worked as a team and communicated well. I did not know vets delivered this type of service. I could not be happier with their service
