Dr. Jeremy Hodges and his staff, (Chris) were amazingly kind during the process of losing my Gus. I will always be grateful for their kind and caring demeanor. The care they provided for my life long friend, partner, protector and confidante (Gus), will forever be in my heart. Thank you for the cards and poems to help in my recovery of his loss. May God bless you for all the kindness you have shown to me and others alike. Read Less

We adore Dr. Nikki Elstner! The absolute ONLY veterinarian I would trust my loves with! She is not only professional but takes great care to be compassionate & caring with our pets, as she understands, they are NOT, simply pets, THEY ARE OUR FAMILY!!! You CAN DEPEND ON Dr. Nikki Elstner! Read Less

In my opinion they have one of the best clinics in town. High Tech and very clean. Dr. Myers does his best to get to the bottom of a problem and honest enough to refer you to another Vet if He does not have a solution. One of my favorite Shepherds had issues and he was very helpful. They saved my Bibu when she bloated . It happened on a Sunday and they were there for us. The staff is wonderful and so are the rest of the Veterinarian. I highly recommend them. Read Less

The people at Theodore Veterinary Hospital & Clinic are like my family. They have taken care of my animals for many many years. The original owner Dr Sidell was a very kind compassionate and loving man that knew how to live! And had an awesome sense of humor he is sadly missed he passed on but never will be forgotten. Dr Carl Myers I have known for many years and is a dear friend. Read Less

We LOVE Dr. Chris Barr and his assistant, Tori. Tori makes you feel like family when she is talking about your animals. Both her and Dr. Barr truly love their job. They both treat the animals and animal owners with respect and love. I could not ask for a better team to look after our animals. The front desk staff is always so nice and helpful. They remember your name and ask about all the animals you own. Read Less

I can't say enough about how satisfied, comfortable, and trusting of Theodore Vet. Hosp. I was. I went there initially because My Doctor moved to this hospital. I was sold, impressed and so trusting of Dr. Chris Barr I had to follow him for my pets care. As it as turned out the entire staff and the other Doctors have been awesome. The best testimony I can give is that after being at the hospital for a bath or a surgery or boarding, my animals come back happy and healthy. That is how I know that the care there is professional but heartfelt. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who asks. I would go no one else in Mobile, Al. and I have been to 3 other hospitals that can't compare. Read Less

I loved my vet that I had been using for 30 yrs but I needed a Vet Hospital to administer chemo for my beloved Allie. Theodore Vet Hosp was recommended by my vet and Dr. Myers and the rest of the doctors & staff were wonderful with Allie and helped me have her for more years than I thought possible. Their up to date equipment provides (almost) instant information. Their surgical skills are amazing! My current labs love them as well. They enjoy their checkups and love boarding with them. I never get tired of bragging on the wonderful personnel working at Theodore Veterinary Hospital. Thanks so much for loving all my babies!!! Read Less

The service at the front desk is great! The Vets and Vet tech do a great job! The only problem we have at this time is being able to afford their quality service. We regret having to share this but being on disability limits our funds. Care for our pets is important. Our four-legged babies give unconditional love . We do what we have to do. Read Less

I recently moved from Ft. Rucker to Mobile and was concerned about finding a great vet because my little baby had severe skin allergies but Dr. Barr is awesome. I will agree with others it's not the cheapest but I have to say it's well worth the expense my little bailey hasn't had anymore issues, no bald spots, no pulling his hair out, he's doing great. We are both extremely happy!!! Read Less

I would have given more than 5 stars if I could. My precious pup has been a regular patient for several years just for routine visits. Last week we had a serious issue requiring immediate attention. We were worked in immediately upon arriving & Dr Barr was quick to calm our fears. After consulting with Dr Hall ( our usual vet) they devised the best treatment plan for our pup and she is on the road to recovery now. The entire staff is always pleasant & accommodating. Highly recommend. Read Less

Theodore Veterinary Hospital has been wonderful to us. We "adopted" a stray and quickly brought her here. They took great care of her, between heart worm treatment, many check ups and getting fixed. Now any time we go out of town, this is Mittens second home. We never worry about her. We know she's in great hands, from the front desk staff to those in the back, Mittens is loved. We highly recommend Theodore Veterinary Hospital. Read Less

I have been with Theodore veterinary for about 25 r better years. Never been dissatisfied with the service. Great staff to work with. I worked at different veterinarians when I was in school, never with some like them. Many different doctors all great. I use Dr Myers are Dr Barr most all the time they a great. They have the greatest doctors always able to talk with you. Will let you know what is wrong. Thank God for putting me with them. Have all the equipment so you do not have to leave town. I have people come in from out of town to use them. You will love them give them a try. I will never change because I have to know if anything is going on with my dogs they r my babys. HAVE TO HAVE THE GREATEST. Thanks for all the wonderful help in the past years. Also thanks for keeping up with the latest changes in the medical field. Thanks for all the helpRead Less

I have a miniature schnauzer (Molly ) she lost her front teeth and was in general, feeling bad . I could see her demeanor had changed and was not the same dog. I had been seeing another group of physicians and they dismissed her problems as yeast infections in her ears and bad bloodlines and just bad teeth. Doc Myers found the mites in her ears and we had to have oral surgery to remove the bad teeth. My Molly has been a completely different animal. She is chewing her toys playing again and in general with her new diet, a happy member of our family again. The Theodore Veterinarians Hospital is a wonderful Phacility, state of the art and truly a caring group . My brother has also started taking his animals to them because their vets have been ineffective at treating their animals properly. Great place, great people, great service, and love for our furry friends..Read Less

Three different vets looked at the swelling in my dog's face and we had two different diagnoses. Came into Dr. Myers and he looked and felt it, and said, no, that is not what this is. You will not walk out of here cheaply. Period. But, the level of service, the expertise, and the peace of mind I got were worth every penny. I love all my vets and I understand exactly why the diagnosis at the other three vets was not made correctly, and it was not all their fault. There's no test for what was wrong. But, Dr. Myers was able to rule out the other diagnoses just by feeling the lump on his face. He took him straight back to surgery and found the issue. You can't put a value on that when you are freaking out about your baby and his issue has been unresolved for over a month.Read Less

The doctors and staff here are wonderful. They took care of our fur baby Mr. Pickles. He was very ill and they got him back healthy. They kept us informed on his progress and answered all of our questions while treating him. Since he has been home he is back to his normal self and doing well. My 3 year old has his best friend back. So thankful they treated him as well as they did. Read Less

People may not realize just how many procedures that the Doctors here perform. Our 8 year old Cocker Mikki had a torn ACL our vet knew about Dr Myers and sent us to him otherwise we would have had to go to Aurburn or LSU to have the surgery performed. The surgery is not cheap but Dr Myers did a great job and our Mikki is walking on all fours again and it's only been 2 weeks. She still has a ways to go in her recovery but I would recommend Dr Myers to anyone that has a dog with a torn ACL. Read Less

I recently had both of my great danes laprascopically spayed and had their stomachs tacked.Both are doing fantastic. Dr. Meyers is excellent at what he does. He teaches other veterinarians from all over the country how to do the stomach tacking. His assistant Paul was very patient and answered all of my questions. He even got their employee that has Danes to come in and speak with me. The front office ladies are very friendly and heloful. The veterinary techs and assistants are great, too. I even got a video of the stomach tacking!After getting the Danes spayed, I took in my lab for her yearly exam. Dr. Meyers walked in the room and asked why her abdomen was so distended. He took x rays and found she had a tumor that needed emergency surgery. He even stayed over 2 hours late to do the surgery himself.Top notch facility, totally worth the 30 minute drive. I will not trust anyone else with my pets. Read Less

Short review: overpriced & negligent (poor quality of care) would not refer anyone to this clinic. Extended Version: My cat is 14 years old and was very healthy until a few months back when he stopped eating and I took him into one of the clinics that I go to regularly.  Because they were uncertain of what was causing his appetite to diminish they referred me to TVH.  He ended up staying a week and cost about $1000 for his stay there testing etc  At the end of his stay they relayed that they thought that he had Pneumonia or Bronchitis.  A few weeks later he continued to lose weight and I brought him back & they examined him again & diagnosed him w/Giardia & tape worms.  I gave him the medication for both as directed to no avail.  A friend of mine who owns a local shelter asked me if they had checked his mouth for an infection.  I almost dismissed that bc that seemed like a no brainer that they would examine as standard protocol but I call and asked if they had done so just to err on the side of caution.  The lady who answered the phone informed me that the vet who had treated Cow was out of the country but that she is thorough and that would have been part of the routine checkup.  I was also told by her and another lady who had answered that he most likely had both the tape worms & Giardia at the time of his week stay & that they had no reason to check his stool during that stay (evidently this is how they find these parasites).  I took the lady for her word and waited another 3 weeks as I was told the meds should take care of the parasites & appetite should go back to normal.  This did not happen & on the last day of the second round I took him back for another examination & requested that they check his mouth.  They did check his mouth & he did indeed have an infection which the vet said himself it was possible that Cow had this at the time of his last appointment and that it was missed "anything is possible."This was not reassuring to me that they had missed the parasites & the mouth infection & they did not offer to make it right or waive the fee of visit.  Just the checkup to tell me he had an infection in his mouth (that I asked them to check for who knows if they would have ever even noticed) & doing the same labs they did a few weeks ago (still not sure why they did the same ones twice just a few weeks apart) cost a little less then half a grand.  Took him back for his next follow up appointment today to find that he has lost even more weight & the doctor DID NOT even check the infection in his mouth only gave him a shot & when asked if he was going to check the infection since this was a check up he relayed that the cat was angry now & that he was not going to check it.  Billed me $100 for the Read Less

Had to make an emergency vet visit while visiting down here. Our dog was in extreme pain due to joint problems. We stopped in without an appointment and got dr. Meyers to look at our dog. Him and his staff completely exceeded our expectations. Even though we weren't one of their regulars, they took care of our dog like he was one of their own. They saved us hundreds of dollars and had our dog feeling better within days of medication. Definitely recommend this clinic for anyone who wants someone to care for their pets. Read Less

I am new to the area and had been to another vet in the area for my sick puppy. I was sent to this clinic because they have ultrasound. This is an impressive clinic with well educated, caring, brilliant doctors. The clinic has the latest and greatest technology available! This clinic actually has a doctor that teaches endoscopy to other doctors! They do laser surgery which is amazing as so much less risk than to have a pet have a huge incision. I received aome very bad news for my baby, but i felt like she was in the very best hands! I highly recommend this clinic for the care if your pet. Read Less

I am in town visiting family for the holidays.  My mother-in-law had previously asked if I could go to the vet with her while I was here as she is handicapped.  I was actually thrilled as I am a recently retired veterinary technician/hospital manager and had been so for nearly 30 years.  While I love being retired I surely miss it.  Entering the hospital I was very impressed.  It is very nice and extremely clean.  We were promptly put into a room.  Shortly thereafter a young lady (never introduced herself) came in to discuss why we were there.  When I questioned her about a few of the vaccines she left the room without word.  Next another young lady came in (again no introduction) and I asked if she was the doctor.  She said no that she was here to see what we wanted done today.  I told her each item for each dog and she wrote everything down and also abruptly left the room.  Next another young lady came in (no introduction) and again I asked if she was the doctor.  No.  She was a technician and was there to see what we wanted done today!!!  Again I explained.  She said "I feel like you are attacking me and You are hateful".  I cried.  (She certainly should have held her tongue) I am not hateful in the least.  I am an extremely compassionate 55 year old woman who has spent her entire life caring for small animals.  My feelings were so hurt it bothered me all day.Now it begins to dawn on me that because I was not asking for exactly what they thought I should, they were unhappy with me.  My in-laws are handicapped, in their 80's, and on a very fixed income.  I was able to save them $25 without compromising the dogs' health.She then was going to take the dog in the back to do these things.  I never trust a vet that does that and I am positive my dog is much happier being with me in a stressful situation.  In all my career I have never separated an owner from his pet with the exception of surgery.  When they began it was evident very quickly why they take the dogs to the back as they were quite incompetent.So much for being thrilled about going to the vet.  Also, I wonder about their pricing ie a rabies vaccine that lasts 1 year is $13.50, and the very same vaccine that lasts 3 years is $42.50.  More than three times the cost!  At my clinic they were each $13.50, 1 year or 3 year.  The cost to the clinic was the same.I have to say I've never been treated so poorly.  A little professional courtesy here would have gone a long way.  Instead they've lost a client.  Here it is 12 hours later and I am still tearing up over being called hateful.I would never take my own dog to this clinic.  If they can't even be nice to the owners, how are they treating the pets in the back, out of sight.

I brought my cat in to be seen for his teeth.  Dr. Myers and his assistant spent more time with us than any vet ever has.  They were extremely thorough.  I ended up spending a lot more than I was expecting, but all charges were explained to me and I believe necessary.  I was very impressed with their care.

My ratings rules (for physicians, clinics, veterinarians, etc.):One star for cleanliness/orderliness.One star for courteous/friendly staff.One star for minimal waiting/response time.One star for knowledgeability.One star for sensitivity to needs.Cost: Less than $40 for a standard office visit (meds and treatments excluded).Special perks: Patient table which allows your pet to step on it from the ground, and lifts up (prevents need for lifting your heavy pet onto the table); digital vetscope (a monitor that lets you see what the vet is seeing when using something like an otoscope, or a scope viewing the inner ear); emergency services; pain management; suite boarding as well as indoor/outdoor kennels. Being new to the area and not knowing anyone to refer me to a good veterinarian, I had to just jump the gun and choose one. I'm glad I selected these folks. They are close to where I live, and I was impressed with the infinite number of services they offer. Those services are so numerous that I couldn't possibly list them all here, so it's better to peruse their website if you're interested.We saw Dr. Sidel, who was very friendly, amusing and helpful. He was very kind and gentle toward our dog, which wins serious points. He also appeared to be very knowledgeable, but this was a standard puppy exam (we had just adopted a rescue pup) so I can't say that with too much authority.The facility is very clean and we didn't have to wait very long to be seen. Because they offer services such as pain management and "behavioral medicine", it appears that they are sensitive to the needs of your pet(s).I've not yet tried their boarding service, but I plan to in the future. I'm also not yet sure what the charge is on boarding, but a simple call would answer that. What they do offer though are suite rooms with TV's and beds (which can be viewed at their website), as well as your standard indoor/outdoor kennel. The kennels are double fenced, for safety - a big requirement. All in all I was very pleased and definitely plan on using them exclusively. My senior dog is scheduled for an appointment on 2/16 and I'll update this review if needed. Read Less
