Pharr Road Animal Hospital

I have a small paralyzed 6 lb shi-poo named Dakota that is a patient here and also boards here very frequently. My dog is well taken care of and loves being with the Pharr Rd Animal Hospital team. They take loving good care of him and I am always comfortable when he is in their care - be it for boarding or for treatment. Read Less

Every time I call they are so knowledgeable and patient. Everyone who has helped me from the front desk, to the techs, and our Vet are wonderful. Dr. Paschal is so good to our golden doodle, I would recommend her to anyone! Read Less

I took my cat here for the first time about a year ago for a routine check-up. Everyone was very caring and patient, and I think my cat received very good care. My only complaint was that they were not able to give her the pills that they prescribed her for fleas and worms. I understand that my cat is difficult (as cats are), but it was disappointing and daunting that I was sent home with pills for my cat. Read Less

I can't say enough about the entire staff (out front and behind the scenes) and the vets at Pharr Road Animal Hospital. They were ALL helpful, understanding and extremely knowledgeable from puppy to Rainbow Bridge with my last dog of 15.5 years that I didn't have a second thought about bringing my new rescue here for his wellness. Have referred so many others that are still using PRAH to this day. Don't hesitate to go here! Read Less

Dr. Paschal is the best! She's always so understanding and patient with my little bichon. She explains things well and gives me options for treatment. All the staff is friendly and welcoming. The facilities are always clean. Read Less

Dr. Winokur is the BEST! He provided so much knowledge and helpful information about my dog and her conditions. I feel completely safe and comfortable having him as my vet and I know that my dog is in good hands with him. It really makes a difference when you find someone you can trust!!! THANK YOU! Read Less

Great experience! They were able to accommodate a last minute next day appointment for my cat. The entire staff was super nice, easy going and great with my very nervous pet. The doctor seemed knowledgeable, easy to talk to and informative. Only critique would be she gave him some deworming pills and causally said she was going to give him pills for deworming without really asking me if I wanted him to have them. I would have said yes if asked, it was a separate charge on the bill though. The price was still decent for the total service (exam, travel documents, updated vaccines, worm pills and some meds for the plane ride) at 170ish bucks. Read Less

Love this vet. Their front desk staff is amazing every time I call and they treat my four-legged children like their own. My cats hate traveling and being in the carrier. There is this precious sweet grey cat that is there every time I bring them in. He/she always comes out to check on them while I stand awkwardly checking in with my howling furr-kids. Its just too cute. Highly recommended for the comfortable atmosphere and incredible staff. Read Less

I have been taking my dogs and cats here for over 20 years. This team is expert, caring and professional and the Hospital itself very attuned to client's needs. Communication is excellent and they really give thought to what client's want regarding hours, services and supplies. I feel confident when I bring my furbabies here. Confident that their lives matter to the people who are Pharr Rd Animal Hospital. Read Less

Dr. Tracey Sasher and the team were absolutely fantastic. They were very kind and gentle with my pup, were completely welcoming of kisses and even taught me a new way to help calm my pup down when people enter the room. They were very honest through the whole process and educated me wonderfully! I'm glad to have found such a wonderful vet in Atlanta that I know I can trust with my dogs needs and well-being. Read Less

I've gone to Pharr Road Animal Hospital over many years and have found each of their vets to be incredibly caring and communicative. I also like the very little turnover of their technicians and front desk associates. Retention of "good people" says a lot about a business. Read Less

The best people. I brought in my pup Leia to get her vaccination shots. Dr Paschal was so kind and gentle. And when Leia cried while getting her shots, the vet tech gave her a little kiss on the head. She was so sweet. I loved that :) Read Less

My puppy Yogi and I love going to Pharr Road Animal Hospital! We can get an appointment, or if my schedule doesn't permit, they offer drop off service. I can drop him off before work and get a call from the Vet when they have taken a look at Yogi. For a single mom of a fur-baby, this is so helpful so that Yogi can get taken care of even if my schedule doesn't permit. The staff, every single person, are all so friendly and caring!! We can't say enough about how happy we are with being a part of the Pharr Road family!! Read Less

This was my first time ever visiting Pharr Road AH and it was under unfortunate circumstances. We had to put our little kitty down as it was his time to go. We were devastated and going through a very tough time. From the minute we walked through the door, everyone was so accommodating. It was clear they truly cared and sympathized with us. Even though our reason for being there was awful, they made it as good as it could have been. They definitely gained a customer that day. Read Less

I have used Pharr Rd Animal Hospital since the days when it was Foy Animal Hospital, when Nick came from Auburn, worked with Dr and Mrs Foy until he bought them out! They have seen my many generations of cats over the years and have always provided the best of care! Great staff too! Read Less

Dr Winokar and the great staff at Pharr Road have taken wonderful care of our 2 year old golden doodle, Gracie. Thankfully, she just needs sees them for routine checkups. Our former sweet soft-coated Wheaton terrier, Maggie, suffered from so many allergies that we were regular visitors. We appreciated all the wisdom and expertise that they showered on Maggie trying their best to ease her symptoms, and then finally the love and care that surrounded us on her passing. Read Less

Best vets ever. Have been right with us through the years ... the good and the bad ... caring for a grand total of nine rescue pups ... spanning over two decades. Three of our adopted furry babies are still with us today, and we love our Pharr Road Animal Staff. Read Less

We have been clients of Pharr Road Animal Hospital for over 35 years. I think that says it all. We have complete confidence that our dogs are receiving the very best care available and would not even consider going elsewhere. The front office staff and the techs are unfailingly friendly and helpful, and the doctors are absolutely the best. We love Pharr Road Animal Hospital! Read Less

The vets, technicians and staff here are amazing! Most recently, I took my lab because she was limping on her back leg. They were completely booked for appointments but gladly welcomed me as a walk-in and got me in a room quickly. Dr. Horner came in and was very transparent with me about what she thought but was also very kind and reassuring as she could see the fear and concern in my face. She walked me through what she would like to do, and I really appreciated that she wasn't jumping the gun and doing x-rays right away as she was aware of the expense. Luckily, everything turned out to be ok and I am so thankful for the care and kindness of Dr. Horner and all of the staff. Read Less

I started here with one of my two dogs februray of this year. I brought both of my dogs this past Friday for a ck up and one had recently lost weight . Dr Pascal did blood work that was sent out to figure out the problem long story short before it was back from the lab my dog for very sick fast and I lost him this Tuesday . everybody there was so nice and compassionate and made it a much easier experience for me .. Read Less

Pharr Animal Hospital the best, in Service, Caring, Professionalism. We love it here and so does Murphy our Springer Spanial! Dr. Coleman is terrific, kind and so knowledgeable! I feel so blessed to have him as our Vet Read Less

There's no better Place! I go there with my 2 Chihuahua Mix Dog Girls Cassie and Bibi since i moved to Atlanta. They got spayed there during Christmas time - the scars where really smaller than i thought- tiny i can say and it healed super quick. They got soft fabric Cones that where not bothering them that much. I just have been yesterday for shots and check up. The Doctor is sooo nice and wonderful- so is the entire Staff there! You can just be sure your furry family members are in the best Hands there!Read Less

I went to Pharr Road Animal Hospital for the first time a few days ago, and I'm so grateful I did! My experience was nothing but warmth and compassion from everyone I met and my precious Maya felt relaxed by the end of her appointment with Dr. Winokur. Very impressed and I've already given rave reviews to many of my friends who have "fur" kids as well :-)))) Read Less

Everyone at this practice puts your pet first. What a great place to take your pets. I have received top notch service. The doctors look at your case individually- you and your pet are not a number and this is not assembly line veterinarian services. So nice to feel like a welcomed client instead of a bother. Even the front desk is invested in your pet's care. LOVE THIS PLACE! Read Less

We recently switched to Dr Almand & Pharr Road as a result of friend's recommendations. We had previously been seeing another local veterinarian for years, but, their practice has been undergoing changes. Our dog is older, somewhat arthritic and diagnosed with a situation that will probably claim her within the next year. We intend to make it a great year for her. Dr Almand's course of treatment was to honor that, give her medication and lifestyle recommendations to make her time as great as it could be. Our prior vet advocated test after test and invasive surgeries when the ultimate outcome is already dictated. We prefer the kind, intelligent & pragmatic solutions offered by Dr. Almand. Her staff is great as well. Read Less

Pharr Road has given my two dogs the best possible care! When I first adopted my dogs, it was obvious that they had not received the veterinary care that they needed. After reviewing several vets, I chose Pharr Road. From the beginning they have been so wonderful, and caring. When one dog was involved in a dog attack, he was taken to the emergency vet. Not even 12 hours later, Dr. Paschal had called me to check on my dog! You do not get that kind of care, and attention to detail at many vets. Granted, they are pricier than other vets in the area, but I truly believe that you get what you pay for. Read Less

As always my dog received outstanding care after she was injured. Loving hands and gentle words helped to sooth her. She was promptly treated for her injuries, made comfortable, and kept for observation for several hours. The following day I received a follow-up call to check on my precious dog. Having been a client at Pharr Road for over 30 years, I am grateful for the doctors and staff who have care for all of my dogs. Read Less

Whenever my rescue Golden, Chrissie, and I go to Dr. Paschal and Pharr Road Animal Hospital, we get the best treatment in the world. I've tried other vets over past decade, so I have a comparison. Since first coming to Dr. Paschal 1 year ago, I saw that she discusses various options and costs and helps you figure out what is best for your pet. She also keeps your pet's needs in mind and lets you know when new products are available that will help her. After having five skin infections while seeing another vet in January 2015, since coming to Pharr Road in February Chrissie has become the picture of health. Dr. Paschal also clearly cares about her human and animal clients. Once I had an emergency since Chrissie had gotten a stick stuck in her gums, and Pharr Road advised me how to get through the night, since there wasn't much bleeding, and then Dr. Paschal took care of Chrissie early the next morning. I completely depend on Dr. Paschal and Pharr Road Animal Hospital for my cherished pet's care. Before closing I need to say the support staff is wonderful, as well. Thank you Pharr Road! Read Less

I was simply stunned to read a negative review about Dr. Winokur have to wonder if it was written by someone who had never been to visit him. My experience with him has been quite the opposite and I have never met anyone who had a bad experience with either Dr. Winokur or any of the other vets and staff of Pharr Road Animal Hospital. I searched for several years to find a Vet of Dr. Winokur's caliber and have been taking my dogs and fosters to him for several years. One of the things that makes Dr. Winokur stand out from the rest is his broad base of knowledge. He is skilled in traditional western practices as well as eastern medicine. Accupuncture, theraputic massage, Chinese herbal medicine, traditional western approaches - his skill set is extensive. If your pet presents with a challenging symptom, he will consult with other doctors as appropriate. One of my Rottweilers has had numerous (!!) leg issues and several vets told me that she would have to be on rimadyl for the rest of her life. I didn't want to go that route for a variety of reasons and was thrilled when I found Dr. Winokur and he tried her on several herbals instead. My Rottweiler is now running pain free and is able to live a normal life - something that other vets said would never happen. I can't thank him enough. Another thing I like about Dr. Winokur is that he does not speak down to you and takes as much time to explain things to you as you need. It is not unusual for him to give you printouts of articles or suggestions of books to read. He is very thorough and gentle in his examinations and asks alot of questions about what is going on - which sometimes seem like they are totally unrelated - and all of a sudden you are having an ""aha"" moment as he ties the symptoms together as he reaches a diagnosis. Each visit with him is like a mini lesson, which I like. I personally prefer a vet who is of the ""less is more"" school of care, and that is Dr Winokur. He won't suggest a sledge hammer approach when there is another equally effective, less stressful way to deal with the issue. One of my dogs had a mast cell tumour and Dr. Winokur was very compassionate and helpful as he walked me through treatment and what to expect. And he always returns phone calls and after a surgery he always calls with a report and then his staff will follow up after you bring your pet home to see if there are any problems. I have taken my fosters to several of the other vets in the practice as well and I have an equally high opinion of them.The staff to a person are friendly, competent and they always come over to say hello and pet and greet which ever dog I happen to have with me. I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Winokur and the other vets and staff of Pharr Road Animal Hospital and I am so very thankful that I found him. Yes, they can be a little expensive, but for the quality of care you receive, you are getting a bargin. No other vet for my dogs, thats for sure!!!! Read Less

We have been taking our dogs to Pharr Road Animal Hospital since we moved to Atlanta in 1980. At that time there were only two veterinarians (Dr. Petty and Dr. Tucker). We fell in love with the doctors and the office staff and knew we had found the right doctors to trust with our pets' health care. Thirty years later we continue to be impressed with the quality of care our four-legged children receive from Pharr Road Animal Hospital. They have nursed our dogs through serious illnesses and have done so in a caring manner that made us feel that they loved our pets as much as we do. The combined expertise and experience of the doctors in this practice guarantee that your pet's problems receive excellent diagnosis and treatment. We are particularly impressed with the fact that they keep up to date with the latest treatment alternatives (including acupuncture). The front office staff, the techs and the doctors (including Dr. Winokur) without exception, have always treated us and our pets with the utmost respect. Thirty years on we continue to have a love affair with Pharr Road Animal Hospital. Read Less

I had to find a clinic that performed a paricular type of surgery on my chow mix baby. Dr. Duffy and co-workers perforned the necessary surgery and made me feel so much better about the tricky procedure. I strongly recommend the group to others. Read Less

Exceptional Professional Care and Service It is clear to me that one person has issues with this great practice and is abusing the internet with multiple negative ratings under different registrations. Anyone can have a bad experience. It doesn?t mean that this is a bad place. My Corgi was limping very badly and another veterinarian had already suggested expensive ACL surgery. Dr. Winnokur and Dr. Nichols both examined my dog, studied x-rays, administered acupuncture and gave me a sound plan to rehabilitate my dog. We used minimal medication and no surgery. It was been almost 2 months and he is not limping at all. Dr. Winnokur called me to check in twice. I have always found the staff to not only courteous but very professional as well. I love that they use not only sound traditional methods, but also are up on newer, less invasive, natural methods as well There are several vets on staff and I would trust any of them with my pets. Although they may not be cheap, I felt I got great value for time and money spent there. Read Less

The Vets at this clinic do not care about your pets. They only care about getting your money. The office staff are also obnoxious. They make pejorative comments about the customer and pet, even the office manager has is an unkind. The vets never return phone calls, even when promised! They wanted to order costly and invasive tests without a plausible reason to warrant these procedures. I have seen both the owners of the clinic, and they are awful vets. I would not recommend this place to anyone. They don't care about animals, only money. Steven Winokur WILL NEVER RETURN PHONE CALLS.. Read Less

The office staff is unkind and patronizing to your face. When you ask to obtain your pet's test results, the technicians will read over the results, and notify you that only the veterinarians can provide the results. However, the veterinarians will NEVER come to the phone, they will refrain from returning phone calls, and will NOT see you even if you go to their office. I had to tell them that I will file a complaint with the BBB in order for them to get the doctor to give me the results. Furthermore, they NEGLECT to apologize for their errors and rudeness. Also, they charge significantly more than other clinics. They don't seem to care about the animals in which they are allegedly treating. I will NEVER go back to this clinic. They are awful!

I will never take my dog back here. I took my dog to this vet b/c she seemed to have a bladder infection. The vet took xrays, urine tests, etc and came back to me, after I spent $300, with absolutely no helpful news. He suggested I take my pet to a specialist which could've cost another $800. He then suggested that my dog ""might have bladder cancer"". Of course after hearing that, I was so sad and very upset. I cried all day and spoke to my husband. My husband called the vet back and asked to re-test our dog. He did... and then found out it was a simple bladder infection!! First of all, I am upset that he even suggested my dog had cancer without knowing for sure and Secondly, I feel like they ripped me off! I will never recommend this place. Read Less
