It is somewhat pricey, but very clean and thorough. We love our vet, Dr. Rucker, and followed him there.

Dr. Nelson and all the staff are very compassionate and thoughtful. They've been a great help to my dogs and to me. Dr. Nelson listens and never rushes. He and his assistant, Emily, in particular, are the most understanding and kind people I've ever met in a veterinary office. I'm so grateful for them. The front office staff, Missy and Glenda are wonderful and always make the process as easy as possible. Read Less

Dr. Nelson and his staff are exceptional. They provide excellent care for all our animals, from our Australian Shepherd to our cattle. I highly recommend Providence Veterinary Care.

Today was our first time using Providence and we will be using them in the future. We have a local vet we use and providence is 40 miles from our home however we heard about them through a friend and we called to check about an oral surgery for our dog, like most people cost isn't the top priority with our pets but it's on up there on the list lol. Providence was significantly more cost friendly when we called and their estimate held pretty true. The 80 miles round trip was definitely made up in cost and great service on top of that. We saw Dr. Mitchell and were extremely pleased. Great vet clinic!! Read Less

Let's start this by saying I love this clinic! A very dear friend works here and I absolutely love the way Dr Nelson treats my animals! He is always there when he's on call and when we go in the clinic! Sadly today my GSD had an injury... he was spewing blood from his leg and if it wasn't for my friend, I would have taken him elsewhere but she came down as soon as we called! Moral of the story, I called the emergency line and waited for over 40 minutes to be contacted only to find out the vet on call was hosting a baby shower and could not see my dog until 4pm... whatever stabbed, shot, or punctured him hit an artery and that caused the spewing of the blood... I stayed calm when the vet finally called and even the second time because I wasn't to sure if I'd have to take him in or not so I wanted to make sure not to make the person who would be potentially caring for my dog mad.... sadly I am waiting for Dr Nelson to be back in office before I take him in(since it is no longer life threatening like it was earlier and the bleeding stopped) because Dr Mitchell couldn't be bothered while at the shower she was hosting. I also stated I would be taking him to the emergency clinic in Little Rock and she told me no, do not do that, just put pressure on it and get it to stop, I can see him after 4pm... this was at around 1120 when I got a call back, the accident happened at 730 am, I wrapped him and got it under control and then as I was changing the bandage(around 1015-1020), I squeezed to apply more pressure and busted the vein back open so I knew I needed help at that point but I was trying to avoid an emergency call because I know vets have a personal life also. I called between 10-25-1030. I would never call over nothing or something I could make wait until the next day. Sadly I needed a vet and ended up having the wonderful vet asst. come out and help me apply pressure and bandage my baby boy up. I am giving a one star because I am very angry that a shower was more important than an animals life... you could have had the shower on a weekend you were not on call because you know when your on call weeks before hand. But thank you, I know now not to ever leave my animals in your hands. I will strictly be doing business with Dr Nelson. I adore him and I know he will properly care for my animals!Read Less

Completely untrustworthy and incompetent. Hospitalised my dog overnight, sent him home without finding the problem or even stabilising him. He only went there because the good vet was too far away for a very sick dog to comfortably travel, well thanks to them my dog is dead. His problem was easily diagnosable from the symptoms and test results, and could have been treated, but no one wanted to have to deal with him over the weekend so they sent him home without bothering. Why actually provide medical care, when you can get $550 dollars for nothing? I'm so heartbroken. This was a complete and total mistake to ever take my dog to this vet, and since they've treated other pets of ours in the past we now wonder if they had to die, either. Don't take your pets here if you actually want them to be diagnosed and survive. May as well just set fire to a pile of money and shoot your pet yourself. At least that way maybe these wastes of oxygen can have the decency to go out of business. Since that's clearly all it is to them, a business, and quite a lucrative one, too. Trust me, this is the only review for a reason. Read Less

I'm not sure if the doctors are incompetent or just greedy we had our lab in there twice spent over 1300.00 and they still couldn't tell us what was wrong with him. They suggested we put in a feeding tube to make sure he gets nutrients until they could figure it out. went to the vet in Hot Springs in less than 3 minutes she knew what was wrong with him.now he is back normal. We will not go back there. I guess they are ok for shots but if your pet is really sick I suggest you go somewhere else. Dr kelly in hot springs is great. I believe she saved my dogs life and didn't put him throughl unnecessary test. Read Less
