Swannanoa Valley Animal Hospital 2580 U.S. 70, Swannanoa, NC 28778

"Very kind and thoughtful staff . I had to bring a friends pet in for what was going to be a euthanasia and ended up just needing a cremation service because the pet passed before the appointment. They treated us like we were long time clients and showed compassion and respect."

"The front staff and vet techs are great - especially Peggy and Jess. That being said, I've now had the worst vet experience of my life with Dr. Sharp, who has zero bedside manner. He handled my cats very roughly, and two minutes into the examination broke my cat's tooth, causing her to bleed. He didn't apologize or express any feelings at all. Just said she would now need an antibiotic shot. After examining my other cat, he mansplained how to clean her ears (I clean her ears regularly and said so). At no point did he ask if I had any concerns or questions (I did). Thankfully the vet techs were helpful and basically did his job. I don't know if he was in a rush or what, but I strongly advise against seeing him. Not an ounce of kindness or care was detected. - towards me or my cats."

"My husband usually takes our 1 year old Lab for his Vet appts but was unable to today for his yearly checkup.. I got there and decided it would be easier for me to wait outside until they were ready for us. We were greeted and taken to our exam room by Jess who was very courteous. She made the whole experience very pleasant and went above and beyond to help accommodate me with a hyper pup. When it came time to pay my dog started pulling towards another dog wanting to play making it very difficult to make the transaction. Jess came to the rescue again by allowing us to go outside and relay the pymt for me. We also determined my dog needed another test to be up to date on everything so she was so kind as to come outside and do it so my dog did not have to go back through the anxiety again. I can not say enough about the kindness and respect I was shown and how very grateful I am for that. Thank you so much Jess! You are absolutely amazing!"

"Love the doc and all the staff. So friendly. They clearly all love what they do. And they know how to care for my pets. Under their care, I've had my cat put down, my puppy neutered and my old dog tended to...among other things. All top notch!"

"Professional and compassionate employees, they are amazing with pets and the cost is more affordable then most places. They have patience which I appreciate because my dog has anxiety when it comes to vets. They will try to squeeze you in between appointments if there is an emergency which is extremely helpful. The office is pet friendly with quite a few pets of their own relaxing. There is also a side door and ramp which is convenient if your pet doesn't do well near other animals or has difficulty with steps."
