GBA nice website but feel that it could be more user friendly.. I really like the idea of localvets.com and enjoy listening to the calls when appointments are being made. I would be happier if I received some sort of notification whenever an appointment had been made through the website without having to go and look for them. Maybe an email notification? Right now it is challenging to remember to check on these and I am only reminded about them when I receive notification that money has been debited from the account !

GBRude I brought my dog into this clinic for the second time, for shots and for his first nail trim. My dog is still a puppy so he still has high energy and is a PitBull, which most know they naturally have high energy. I was rudely told by one of the vets that if I can't control my dog during the nail trim they couldn't trim them there. This was based off his excitement when he saw other dogs and in the exam room he was perfectly calm. Knowing that they handle many different breeds with many different temperaments, I was very offended. I have taken him to a couple other clinics prior and never received this treatment. I was also told that I should be getting him another parvo shot, when he didn't need one, and I had told them that he has also been exposed to another dog that had parvo so I know he wont need it. The same vet that was rude before rolled her eyes at me. I am a young adult and I really don't appreciate the treatment I received from the staff. I am a paying customer, no matter the age, and no customer should be treated with such disrespect. I won't be continuing business with them.

GBExtortion This company basically tries to buy up all the veterinarian search real estate on the web and sell it back to vets. By being the top listing on the page, someone already aware of your clinic and looking for your phone number ends up finding it on their service and you get charged $50. Most of the calls you get are for current customers and they charge you for the call when long time clients make appointments. If a current client gives a referral to a friend and they find your phone number on veterinarians.com, they charge you the $50 finders fee even though they are not responsible for the referral. You can get some of the charges reversed, but if you don't monitor it closely you will pay a lot of money for current customers calling their tracking number by accident. They are owned by a group that will monitor your presence on the web - so you pay the parent to compete with the subsidiary you are already paying - not a very ethical business model. They also advertise their tracking number on other sites and effectively compete with your free or paid listings on those sites.

GBLocalVets.com My experience with local vets could not have been better. My dog is a little old so any medical attention she needs can be stressful. LocalVets took the initial stress away by helping me find a local office quickly. Thanks, Shawn
