Head dr missing the point Brought my dog in after 3 people recommended them, great dr great staff they should all get a raise. the main dr who is the owner and his bud dr. went on vacation leaving I dr to handle everything She did but it was no joke. If you open a business to protect life and death of animals and profess your dying love of them you need to have a least 2 dr on staff, unless you want to open a really small place. Anyway I think his father wouldn't be so proud of him. . I'll go back because of the great staff and this 1 Dr. but shame on him.

Extortion 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.

A 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 !

DO NOT USE THESE VETS!!!! DO NOT USE THESE VETS!!!!! Issue one: Vet would only write a prescription for one month’s supply of medication, despite my dog being on this medication for years! Which meant I then needed to order 3 prescriptions after only one month!!! Issue two: Unbeknown to me when I collected the prescriptions on Saturday he had only validated the prescriptions for one month which meant me having to pay the full three months supply of medication x 3 in one go, rather than validating it for the minimum of three months (some vets validate them for six months) in order for the online supplier to send these out in 3 monthly instalments. I rang the surgery to speak to someone about getting the prescription expiry date extended as the amount of money to pay in one go was unachievable for me, but the vet flatly refused!!!! This has demonstrated Local Vet’s motivation of misleading pet owners into thinking you are providing a good value service and that you care about the animals that you see, but in truth its just about how much money you can get out of people! You really should be ashamed of yourselves, especially in these unprecedented time of price increases, but I guess you have taken full advantage of this ! If I had the facility to give 0 star I would!

Helpful We started local vets to help see where calls get generated from and where we are pulling business from. Since working with local vet/ veterinarians.com we have enjoyed listening to our conversations and seeing where we can make improvements and how this type of service can help the clinic. They are working on a better software to help make sure we don't get billed for new clients that are previous clients and not getting credit for those calls and I have to put in multiply requests or call instead.
