Had to take our kitten in for diarrhea. Staff was fast, kind, efficient. Dr Tony was very open and quick in his care and definitely did not try to recommend anything the cat didn't need. I showed up without an appointment and was out of there in about 30 minutes with a kitten who now has all its shots( including a starter antibiotic shot), was tested for feline HIV and leukemia, and 2 meds for home. Reasonable price for all the care. Read Less

I went to this animal hospital for convenience and I was extremely pleased with my service. The Doctor diagnosed my 13 year old Maltese with congestive heart failure and was extremely knowledgeable about the diagnosis. He did not order a lot of tests and xrays just to make more money (as other vet offices do).  The vet also answered all of my questions which I appreciated. Read Less

We needed to get Coby's second week shots and Dr Tony Abara took him right in and gave him his shots. Dr Abara was also very educational and explained what we need to do to assure Coby stays healthy. Best part of our visit was that Coby didn't freak out and panic when he had his appointment which he did when we visited Pet Smart. Don't be fooled by the big box vets even your pets know they are not a good places. Thank you for your great service and knowledge. Update:-) Post op report is two thumbs up. We had a great experience with our puppies surgery and Coby is doing great and is growing taller and smarter by the day. Read Less

My dog had an allergic reaction to something and started swelling up in the face and became covered with hives. In a panic I called the closest Vet which happened to be Tri-City Animal Hospital. I explained the situation and even though they are not an emergency location, they didn't hesitate before telling me to come in. I arrived a few minutes later, and the tech had me fill out information while she took my pup back to see the doctor. He stopped what he was doing to help my dog and not only was the current patient extremely understanding, but the staff was too. They got my girl all fixed up and sent me home with meds and not an unreasonable hole in my wallet. I can't thank them enough for the care they gave my dog. Read Less

Took my cat in for diagnosis & treatment re: some upper respiratory stuff going on. Told me I had to leave a $250 cash deposit. Looked in my wallet and I had only $220. Offered to leave that and go get the other $30 from an ATM. Front office staff refused, and worse, acted real snotty about it. I work outside and wasn't dressed to the nines, and it was very apparent that they thought that they were dealing with some lower life form. Crappy practice, crappy people, crappy building.

I took my dog on Saturday to be seen he was very sick and I didn't know what was wrong with him...My usual vet was closed. I wanted to have them look at my dog and see if there was anything I needed to do until I could get to my vet on Monday, but one of the staff asked to see my dog so we went out to my truck and I told her that he had not been eating he had loss of balance and breathing funny. She looked at my dog and when he relieved him self she says"" he has blood in his urine and that's not good.... She then started to tell me how much it would cost and what the doctor would most likely do. I then told her that he has an appointment next month to update his shots and that the one problem I have at the moment is that this weekend was the weekend that all of my paycheck went to bills and I don't get paid again until Friday, as soon as she heard that she stopped me and said (not even caring that I could prove that I could pay the bill and I only live like 3 blocks away) ""the doctor is not in and you can bring him back when you get paid!!!"" what kind of insensitive person says something like that? I spent all weekend on the internet making phone calls and not one person could or would help me. So needless to say I'm just sitting here watching my dog die and there's nothing I can do about it.. I don't even know whats wrong with him.. I will never go back to this place again. They don't even deserve a rating... I had 5 puppies last year come down with parvo and my vet helped me out with out question and with out a huge vet bill. Read Less

I've been using this vet for 10 years, and over the years, they have cared for two cats and are currently caring for my two pit bulls. I've boarded my animals here, and the assistants know them by name, and my dogs love coming to the vet! Dr. Abara is kind, unhurried, and willing to discuss how to keep costs low. When one of my pit bulls was injured over Thanksgiving last year, Dr. Abara saw her immediately, and then referred us to an animal hospital that had 24-hour care, saying that he didn't want her to be alone in his facility over the holiday, and that they would only be in twice a day to check the animals. The bill from the other hospital was $1100--money that Tri-City didn't get! I really appreciated their honesty, and their willingness to put my pet's well-being before their pocketbooks. Read Less

My wife and I went a week and a half ago to get my terrier a dental cleaning. On friday we set up an appointment and were quoted a price of $150 by the head doctor, Dr. Abara. When we went to drop of our dog Monday, there was a different doctor on duty and the front desk clerk presented us with a price of $180. We tried to get them to lower it to the promised amount. We didn't get to speak with the female doctor and the staff at the front desk said we were being charged for a catheter. From $150 to $180 is a big difference and other places in Atlanta charge as little as $125.We took our dog home instead and we were told that we would get a call from Dr. Abara the same day to discuss the problem. We DID NOT receive a call. Be aware that the head doctor does NOT set prices or policy. Each doctor sets their own prices and there seems to be no communication between doctors. Get the price in writing when you set an appointment!! Read Less

I have used this animal hospital several times because it is convenient to my house, but I've never been very satisfied. I get the distinct feeling that they are trying to upsell me things I don't need. They don't seem that concerned about my animals and it just doesn't feel very clean or inviting. They don't follow up with you, they don't send reminders. I suppose you could take your pet here for some basic shots, but I'm starting to wonder about even that. Read Less

I have always had pets, and being a resident of this area for over 20 years, I've had the opportunity to visit nearly all of the veterinary clinics in the area. I had several bad experiences with this clinic in the past, one in particular where I took a male cat in to be neutered, and when I called to pick him up the next day, I was told he had died during the night of unknown causes. Several years passed and I learned that the clinic had been sold and was under new management and had all new staff, including veterinarians, so I decided to give it another try since it was so close to my home. I had a female cat, one of the sweetest, best-natured cats I had ever known that needed to be spayed, so I took her in on a Monday and again, had to leave her overnight. I picked her up the following morning and was told to return in 10 days to have the sutures removed. After 3 or 4 days, she still had no appetite, so I called their office and the person answering the phone was very short with me, and said, "well, why don't you give her something she likes, like tuna or something?" I tried this, but she still wouldn't eat. By that weekend, and I was very worried about her, and the events that followed will haunt me until the day I die. . . It was Sunday evening and she was in my bedroom closet where she had been the majority of the time since I brought her home, when suddenly I heard some sort of growling sound. I realized it was coming from the closet, so I peeked in and when I did, she flew at me like an angry wildcat! I tried to run from the room, but she wouldn't let go. She was scratching and biting me with a fury I've never seen in any animal. I finally broke free and ran from the room and closed the door. Her screams sounded like babies crying, and one would never believe that the sounds coming from that room was from just one cat. She was tearing through the room, turning things over and knocking things off the furniture. I was so shaken that I couldn't think clearly. I called my next door neighbor and she came over immediately. After 30 or 45 minutes, the screaming stopped and only a low growling sound could be heard. I very softly called her name through the closed door, and when she heard me, it started all over again. My neighbor was in total shock, and advised me to stay at her house until we could get help the following morning. I followed her advice and the next morning went back to my house. I called her name softly through the door, and again, the screaming and growling started. I called the vet's office and was told there was nothing they could do to help me and to call animal control. I had no choice. I had to have help, and luckily, the animal control officer was a very nice woman that was as concerned as I was as to what was happening. She skillfully captured her and took her to an emergency clinic, where it was discovered that she was burning up with a fever, a fever caused from a severe infection. Despite our efforts, my sweet little cat died. I was told that it looked as though a butcher had tried to spay her. There was infection in all areas of her surgery indicating the use of non-sterile instruments. In addition, they had used a form of anethesia that was no longer used due to the adverse side effects it caused in many animals, one being extreme aggression. I was so upset that I agreed to let the county handle the matter from that point on. I find it very hard to believe that this clinic is still in operation, but I will continue to share my experience with anyone that plans to take their pet to Tri-City Animal Clinic. Read Less

I have been taking my Cavalier to this vet since I adopted him in June and have had a very pleasing experience. I initially met with with Dr. Davis for his initial exam and she was very welcoming of questions. The staff was very attentive to me and my new pup and spent a lot time explaining to me the veterinary needs and schedule. Each subsequest visit has been the same. The assistants are also friendly and helpful. Since the first visit, I've seen Dr. Abara and received no less service than from Dr. Davis. I am scheduling his neuter procedure with them as well. Wjen I called to schedule the appointment, the aid gave me specific information on pre-op feeding, arrival time, pickup and fees. I've referred my next door neighbor that also has been pleased.

Friends, I took my 108 pound Rottie for a spay. The doctor admitted the pet and for about 200 dollars MImi was spayed. This included pain med to go home and a one night stay. I told all my family. I will drive 20 miles past several vets to meet with the doctors at tricity anytime. They really recognise the value of money and was later able to diagnose my other pet with hyperinsulinism after years of fainting fits. All we have to do is feed her multiple times daily. thank u Dr Tony & Davis. Read Less

It's not often that I take time out to write reviews like this one, but I feel it's my civic duty to warn people about this veterinary clinic. My first experience was not positive: the clinic was understaffed; the vet wasn't available for questions (and the one assistant who was there was clueless); I was quoted one price and when it was time to pay, I discovered $55 that no one mentioned previously; and finally, they failed to mention important follow-up care for the procedure my cat had - -I learned about it when I Googled it at home later. However, despite this poor experience, and because it is convenient to my home, I decided to give them one more try. I encountered similar problems - clueless staff, inaccessible vet, and extra charges (not to mention a very strange diagnosis that I?ve since found out was inaccurate!). This time, I requested an estimate BEFORE work was done on my cat which included charges of more than $200. The vet, Dr. Tony Abara, was ?too busy? to explain the charges, and the clueless assistant said they ""had spent enough time talking to me already!"" A total of about 5-6 minutes! Did they really expect me to pay for 2 different medical injections, drops, and tests that no one explained to me? One of the injections, as my new and wonderful vet explained, was for something that my cat definitely did not have. He actually encouraged me to report this clinic to the official veterinary licensing board, which I plan to do now. If you're considering this clinic, please think again. Read Less

I visted for the first time today and the staff was extremely friendly and courteous. Dr. Davis was very welcoming of my ""first time Mom"" questions. The facilities are clean and spacious but do have an animal smell, as expected. The staff cradled and talk to my pup as if he was theirs. I will definitely be taking my new puppy back for follow-up.

I've been going to Tri-City with my cat for about four years. The old doctor, who has since retired, was fabulous. He had a great way with animals and skittish kitty was always well-behaved with him. I'm not as familiar with the ""new"" doctor, but my overall impression of this hospital has not changed a bit. The office staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. The facility has been noticeably clean (just about spotless) every time I've visited. There's always that vet's office smell, but hey, what can you do... Read Less
