This place is horrible. I would not recommend this place to ANYONE with a fur baby. I brought my 12 month old chocolate lab in with a deep laceration on his back paw that kept spurting out blood. My puppy had been bleeding for almost 2 hours ( we had to travel an hour and a half to this place). We got him there and they were really friendly at first. They took him back to examine him and instead of coming back to let us know what would need to be done and discuss the cost they went ahead and " treated" his wound. They applied some powder called hemablock and bandaged it up. They brought him back to us and told us to wait a few minutes to see if the bleeding had stopped. Gave us the bill.245 dollars later our puppy is still gushing blood. I had given them My last dollar .if I would have had another 500 bucks they would have treated him properlyinstead they said we would need to find somewhere else to take him due to lack of fundstook back the pain meds and antibiotics as well and pushed us out the door.puppy still gushing blood. Waited until 7am to get him to our regular vetby that time he had lost so much blood he was going into shock and was almost dead. Come to find out he had severed the main artery in his leg and needed to be stitched up. So if you want your animal to die then you can take them to this place but if you really love your pet then I suggest going elsewhere. They care more about a dollar than they do your fur baby.
I found Dr. Strickland to be very loud obnoxious and brash and lacking in compassion ,the staff acts like they don't like their job and I think the place is coin operated .I honestly believe if I'd had another $500 my little dog would still be alive . After my little dog passed and I went to pick up his body the doctor didn't even have the common decency to to come out from the back of the office and give condolences. Next time I have an emergency with any of my pets I will go the extra hundred miles to a different ER. I have a hard time believing that a person would actually let an animal or living things die because of a dollar amount but it seems to come easy to this place .
Don't take your sick animal here. Save time and drive to Savannah or to Florida to see someone who care! This was the worst experience ever!!When I arrived no other customer was waiting. The receptionist had me fill out the form and asked what was wrong with my dog. I gave her a brief explanation. A little later we went back to the exam room. I never saw a doctor or nurse. Just the receptionist with a bill for $290. Without a doctor even looking at my dog they wanted X-rayswhy? I told her to run the urinalysis before doing the X-rays. The receptionist took the specimen I brought in and left. A little later a nurse (I assume since she never introduced herself)said the urine was fine and they needed to do X-rays. Ok? But the actual vet hasn't even looked at my dog. We waited over an hour and a half (90 minutes!!!) and still no one looked at my dog! My daughter and I could here the doctor in the back discussing the weeks surgery schedule! What someone could do first thing every morning..hello I have a sick dog here. Finally I got up and left. The receptionist said the vet was working on two critical animals. May be but I could hear what the vet was saying and it wasn't medical - it was administrative! I left they ended up only charging me for the urinalysis but that's not the point. DON'T bulls..t instead of taking care of the animals. Don't keep people waiting.
Very very wonderful staff ! Mr. Robert Burns was our vet today and he took great care of our dog, Buddy . We were really thankful to get in quickly and have him checked out.
Excellent service for our injured dog. All local vets were closed over the weekend. Dr Cranfeld helped us tremendously with x-rays sent to our home vet in VA and our local vet in Brunswick, consultation, prescription of pain meds to help our dog for several days. Good news - she's doing better day by day.
Horrible experience, very rude and very unprofessional. I'm wouldn't recommend going here, one of the males that worked up there slammed the door on us and wanted to fight.
Absolutely no way we will ever use this place again. We had a cat almost a year ago die from a congenital heart defect so we are very over protective of our other pets. When another pet started having similar symptoms we tried Brunswick Pet ER and were told that we needed to see a Cat Cardiologist to get extensive tests in addition to the $350 worth of x-rays, blood work, and other tests for this vet. Why?? We were forced to sign papers that we were leaving with our sick cat against their advice even though we were told other than the tests that we still needed to see our regular vet in the morning. When we got our cat to our regular vet we were told that his heart defect was the cause of the symptoms and it had progressed so far that he would need to be put to sleep considering any treatment at this point is basically just prolonging the inevitable and that it could cause a heart attack anyway. Very glad that I didn't listen to this RUDE vet that was very rough with my cat. DO NOT USE THIS PLACE. The only positive was the vet tech-she was amazing but I felt sorry for her having to be around the hateful vet.
Absolutely sickening! Front desk lady was very rude! My dog was sitting in the waiting room for around 30 minutes bleeding and no one seemed to care! Workers continuously walked past her and ignored her. I do not recommend this place to anyone. Complete and total rip off! Dr. Nun in Kingsland, GA is amazing. PSA: DO NOT HAVE AN ANIMAL CLINIC IF YOU ARE IN IT FOR THE WRONG REASONS. Some people actually care about their animals.
My experience here was amazing, my dog was going through respiratory distress and my regular vet wasn't available so, I decided to take him to the Brunswick Pet ER.
The doctor that was there, Dr. Strickland, was very thorough. She was understanding and thoughtful. She explained everything so my family would understand what was going on. Ranger had to stay in the hospital, and when I visited he seemed very happy there. By the next morning, he was doing better and we were able to take him home. We had to see our regular vet a few days later, and by then he was 100% better. I've been to other emergency clinics before when I lived in Penn, and the cost at this ER was by far the least expensive compared to the others.
I'm glad Brunswick now has this available when our fur babies get sick after hours.
