I am so pleased with the services I have received for my puppy Sandy.. She's very active pup.. They treated us very friendly. Sandy had her Rabies Shot And Nail cut..the Dr. Had it all done.. Nail are so much better and Sandy never even knew she'd a shot too..
We WILL CONTINUE to Drive to Huntsvile for all her vet needs ONLY at GOVERNORS CHOCE ANIMAL HOSPITAL..
I THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH .response / report this review -

I noticed my dog trembling so I called to ask a nurse a question. I didn’t receive a call back so two days later I called as a reminder. The Dr. got on the line and said “you were told to come in so I’m unsure why you’re calling back”. I told her that though those were her orders nobody called back to let ME know. She instructed me to bring the dog in Saturday. I was told would be a regular office visit and would cost $42.50. On Saturday we bring her in, only to be told that the dr was not in. The chart was even already out and noted that we would be coming in and needed to the doctor. During our visit the technician never once touch our dog. We even asked if her ears could be checked since she’s prone to have an ear infection. Still nothing!!! The tech again reinstated that there was nothing he could do without a dr. He prescribed pain pills (though he didn’t know what was wrong) and provided an estimate for blood work totally over $325 if we can back when the Dr was in. Again I asked the Dr the estimated total cost to see what was wrong with our dog and was told $42.50. Today was a waste of a trip!!!

We absolutely love Governor's Choice. We have had several animals seen there but we had an emergency situation with our bull dog and we would have lost her if it were not for the care that Governor's Choice provides! It is not just the Doctor but the Tech's and the receptionist, they always remember us and ask about our animals and I am sure they see thousands of animals a week!

My little cat Sabrina was very sick, so I took her to Governor's Choice. I was sick with worry, but the staff and especially Dr. Harman were very kind. One of my other cats, Puff, came down with a mysterious sickness and I was losing my mind with worry, but again, the staff were extremely patient and compassionate. I've read alot of negative reviews, and have to say - I LOVE Governor's Choice. I will not hesitate to bring my babies to Dr. Harman! I have been treated with nothing less than dignity and compassion there, and I STRONGLY recommend them to all my friends!

I personal don't like governor's choice animal hospital, they're to expensive for poor service. I transferred to petsmart and it was cheaper and The service there is excellent. The people that work there are always in a rush, and my yorkie is terrified every time he goes there. I don't recommend this place to anyone

*****EDITED 05.22.17****
Turns out the reception staff is really nice. Because HAS uses them for spaying, we continue to see the staff on an almost weekly basis during kitten season. They are really a joy to work with in helping to fight the pet population. The only drawback is their scale in the last examine room; it is ALWAYS off. We keep track of our foster kittens weight on a weekly basis and if they are sick, they get weighed daily. Every time we take the kittens in to be spayed, they always weigh less than our scale at home. Usually, I would chalk it up to different scales, yada yada, however while I was waiting on the vet tech to come check one of my fosters in, I weighed the kitten. The weight I got was 1 lb and 7 oz; when the vet tech weighed the kitten, she got 1 lb & 4 oz.
Overall, this is a good animal hospital. We take our Huntsville Animal Shelter foster animals there for spaying and neutering. The reception ladies could be a little more pleasant but I might have just caught them on bad days. The vet techs are delightful and friendly. Because we drop off and pick up, we have not met any of the vets but it is my understanding that they keep in touch with HAS. I have not had any experience with their medical practices or prices, so this review is based solely on my personal interaction with some of the employees.
If I didn't already have a vet and a back-up vet for my animals, I would consider using Governor's Choice.response / report this review -

I have to give 5 stars because these staff members were the only ones willing to put up with my 80 pound German Shepherd acting like a feral animal in there. I'm currently in the process of training her to be more confident and social and the staff was very understanding of that and listened to me when I said she will calm down within 2 minutes if they just stay in the room and give Jacqui a moment to sniff them. They were very professional and honest with me and did not push treatments to make more money off me. I was previously turned down at the Spay and Neuter Clinic due to Jacqui not being trained and intimidating the front desk there. However Governor's Choice allowed me a walk-in spay. They did not "man-handle" the dog even though she was wearing a muzzle, they still were patient and allowed her to become trusting of the staff as I handed off the leash so they could take her to be treated. No hestation with Jacqui as she willingly went with someone she had been barking up a storm at no less than 15 minutes prior. Very happy with this place and I will gladly return.

The best care my cats ever had personal, intense and professional. My Spook had liver failure and tho he didn't recover Dr. Harman and staff gave him round the clock care, some free care, and never gave up on him. Dr. H gives acupuncture that is amazing and made my fussy female cats stop fighting! The cats don't mind going to the office!

On 12/2/16 I took my baby Precious to get her shots. They took us back to the room, it was only a few minutes the "person" came to give her shots. He was very unprofessional, he grabbed a few bottles and a needle out of the small refrigerator but another needle fell to the floor. I had to tell him that it was on the floor because he didn't seem to want to be there anyway. I was holding my baby when his rude Ass starting giving her the shots in her backside. I thought they were to give them in the neck area. Then he was grabbing her mouth and squirt something in her mouth. After a hour or two she started swelling from the shot, so I called the office to see how much of benadryl should I give her and they said that I could bring her in and they would check her out. But they said it was going to be a $39 charge! I told her that I was just there and gave you $68 , why would I pay another office fee. So, long story short I WOULD NEVER TAKE MY BABY THERE AGAIN!!!

Governors Choice Animal Hospital is a wonderful veterinary clinic. They provide excellent pet care at very affordable prices. All of my pets have gone here for years and I've always been completely satisfied. It's a full service clinic with friendly staff and knowledgeable doctors. I highly recommend you take your pets to Governors Choice!!

Wow! These are the best people in the universe to take care of loved pets. They always give estimates and have the best prices by far. It takes more energy to post negative reviews based on hearsay than to say something nice, to the people who are working hard to do the best job for your pet.

The vets and vet technicians at Governors Choice are very skilled and care very much about you and your animals. They are the best! They also price their services very reasonably. They spend a lot of time with clients explaining procedures and educating their clients on how to keep their pets healthy.

I'm sitting here and there is this Auburn linebacker here talking to the vets (people at the front desk) . The vet talks about how good the Auburn fans are and tells him out loud "Alabama fans are just a bunch of rednecks". I'm sitting here like I'm not a redneck!
They also tell us when we are about to pay that there are other fees we have to pay too. We called first to get a price and sat here for
30+ minutes, then tell us we have to pay more money. More than likely not coming back.
Im still in the office writing this.response / report this review
