Lafayette Veterinary Care Center

If I could put it at a 0 star I would. They gave up on my baby boy as soon as they saw we used scratchpay payment thing, thenweprcede to wait hours all without NOT ONCE attempting to help except a towel to wrap my suffering baby while they are writing up the bill and soft Pitching euthanasia and claiming that there was nothing they could do.... they were ill stocked with feline blood, they told me they were going help him, and they didn't do a single thing other than print a damn invoice and snuff out one of the sweetest most loving souls from this world. I honestly can't help but replay that horrific experience practically every day and every night,. You took away my familiar, my best friend... I Read Less

Great service!! I am excited about a vet clinic that is open 24/7. I was extremely pleased from the moment I walked in to check out. From the two ladies that were assistants (I didn't catch their names) to Dr. Dusty, I was more than happy with how they handled my guy, Shadow. We will definitely be bringing current and future pets from now on. Read Less

I came in last Monday night, April 30th, with my beautiful Sandy Beth....she was my 14 year old dachshund mix. When we got there it was evident that it was an emergency. Dr. Ryan and Lindsay took her immediately to assess her, draw blood and take x-rays. Unfortunately I was given the absolute worst news I could ever hear....Sandy had congestive heart failure and was suffering terribly. The decision had to be made to let her rest. Dr. Ryan and Lindsey did not let that be t...he end of their responsibility.....the compassion they showed my sister, daughter and me was outstanding. Although I was basically unconsolable they did everything possible. Today we picked up Sandy's remains and again I lost it. Instead of rushing us out they put us in a room to grieve. I absolutely hate that I had to go through this but I am grateful it was with them. THANK YOU! EDIT: When I thought Sandy was now forgotten; I went to the mailbox and found a card signed by each employee and sent to us sending their condolences to our family for Sandy Beth! Thank you guys so much for your caring hearts. See More Read Less

I love LVCC!! The staff members are always friendly and accommodating and their new 24/7 hours have been a blessing for this working (with a commute) dog momma. I've used them for grooming, wellness visits, daycare, boarding, and training and all of their services are exceptional. I highly recommend LVCC. Read Less

Highly recommend for veterinary care! The friendliness of the staff, cleanliness of facility, and compassion for your animal is 5 stars. Dr. Tony Nauta and assistant Mallory were fantastic with my extremely anxious boxer/pit. Although we had never been their I explained what was going on and they scheduled an appointment for me in 30 minutes so I wouldn't have to wait with my anxious dog. Within a few minutes of arrival we were in a room. Thank you so much! M.B. and chloe Read Less

I just had to make the hardest decision of my life to put my 14 year old best friend to sleep... it's a decision that I have been trying to come to terms with... the entire staff shared their condolences and made me feel at ease... they are the most loving, patient, compassionate vets office around... the respect they showed my dog before and after death gave me the closure that I needed I thank each and everyone of you! Read Less

I brought one of my guinea pics in about a week ago because he was having some breathing issues, and they were very helpful and did everything they possibly could to help the little guy out, but unfortunately the next morning he passed away (no fault of theirs). This morning I recieved a very sweet card signed from all of them that really touched my heart in a way im sure no other vet in town would care to do so. This is the only place I will be taking any of my pets from now on, simply because of the sincerity and love the staff here have shown for me and my furry friends❤️ Read Less

This place was recommended to me by a friend.When i tell you the minute i walked in,I was greeted by the girls at the desk and quickly taken care of.My Chloe and Lola were very comfy and pleased throughout the whole process.The people there are wonderful and I am truly grateful for the Cate and love that they showed ,especially to Lola:)..She's doing wonderful since her visit!!We will definitely be back when my kitties are in need!!!

On this day 1 year ago, I had to have my beloved Molly put to sleep. It’s been a very painful adjustment without her. I don’t think I’ve mentioned this before, but Dr. Angie Sanders from Lafayette Veterinary Center should be acknowledged for all she did. She did everything she could to ease Molly’s pain and give her a better quality of life in her last days. At the end, she came to my house and with tears in her eyes she was able to ease Molly very peacefully into a bette...r place. She was gentle, kind, compassionate, and loving towards Molly, and also to me. I could not have had a better person by my side as I went through that. I will forever be grateful to her for all she did for us. I’ve been walking down memory lane thinking about the fun times I had with my Molly.... She was quite the traveler and loved to go on trips. Her very first trip was when she was 6 weeks old and we drove to Ft. Benning Georgia to see my son graduate from boot camp. We also made frequent trips to Houston, San Antonio, and Florida. One time we made a long trip through the Ozark Mountains to visit my cousin who lives on the border of Arkansas and Missouri. I got lost in the mountains and was so thankful she was with me. She had a ferocious bark that scared most people. There were many times that she used that bark to warn me and protect me. It really didn’t matter where we went. All she cared about was being with me. She watched me like a hawk and if I made even the slightest movement, she was up and ready to follow me wherever I would go. If I was outside working in the yard, she would always stay right next to me. She never took her eyes off of me, and they were so expressive that at times I felt that I knew what she was thinking. It was that unconditional love and constant companionship for almost 15 years that I’ve missed the most. I will keep the memories and always feel grateful because I know that I was blessed to have had this kind of love in my life. She was truly my angel. See More Read Less

I had no idea this 24/7 vet clinic existed and I am so grateful to know of them now. Everyone (from the person who greets you and your pet as you walk in, to the intake nurses, to the vets) receives you with genuine concern. The clinic operates like a well-oiled machine and the personal follow-up is extraordinary. I received three phones calls (2 from the vets and 1 from the nurse) within just a few hours of bringing my dog in and leaving him there for overnight treatment. I went to bed knowing that eyes were on him constantly, so I was able to rest better. Read Less

We drive from Lake Charles to bring both or girls here. The staff is ALWAYS friendly and the Docs are kind and caring. They always take their time with us. Even the girls are excited when we get there. They are comfortable with everyone there. WE LOVE THIS PLACE. Read Less

I can’t say enough amazing things about this team! I am so grateful that they treat my JD like their own. We’ve been for regular and emergency visits and every single time they put us at ease. The team is kind, patient and understanding and always there when you need them. Read Less

I love this place and would recommend them to anyone who needs vet care! They are friendly and they know how to handle any animal who walks through the door. Dr. Mark fixed my cat right up and he’s now on his way to full recovery after being misdiagnosed from another vet. Thank you to everyone who helped with Raz!! Read Less

These people here have such good hearts. My cat went into labor and had severe complications to where she couldn't birth them and she was going to end up dying. We came in at 4am and Dr. Tony Nauta helped us out, he was so understanding. He reduced the price of our bill by over half of what it was originally after talking to him about our financial situation. They took very good care of her during and after her surgery. Without the help they provided, I would've ended up losing my furbaby. Would recommend them to anyone in the Lafayette areaRead Less

When I initially picked LVCC for my pets' care, it was because of convenience. I loved that they were open late because I work during the day, making it hard for me to schedule daytime appointments. Even if they were to now change their hours and only be open 8-5, I would gladly miss work to still see these amazing doctors, nurses and patient care techs. From the moment you walk into the doors you are greeted like family. They go above and behind for my four-legged babies and for that I am forever grateful. I recommend them to everyone I know without reservation! Read Less

From the doctors to the vet techs to the girls at the front desk, they all go above and beyond to make sure our animal babies are very well taken care of whether we’re there for an annual checkup or an emergency procedure. I trust them without a doubt in my mind to make sure our cats and dogs have the absolute best care around when it’s needed. Read Less

Merry Christmas to an amazing staff. I see my my local vet in Breaux Bridge Dr Audrey an amazing lady. But Dr Audrey doesn’t hesitate to send her patients to you guys, for 2 nd opinions, better testing etc. Lafayette Vet, always welcomed us with open arms( though not being my regular vet.) - Dr Bordelon has helped 2 if my babies cross the rainbow bridge with the help of his wonderful/sweet staff. — Thank you for being there for the pets that need another level of care. — To the staff: you guys are half of what makes a practice great. Thank you for what you offer. The compassion you give is pricelessRead Less

The Vets are great. Wait until you see the owners daughter beat her dog, in front of me while I'm waiting to drop off my dog for grooming. I said, what are you doing and she said, it's ok is my dog!!! Is this where you want to leave your dog? Read Less

Would give it zero stars if I could. I had recently taken my cat here to have him boarded, and when I came to pick him up I noticed that his blankets and food had been left in his bag the same way I packed them. When we got home he immediately went to his bowl and started eating like he hadn't eaten in days, which leaves me the concern that he wasn't fed properly while he stayed there. All of this for $35/night, while the new place I have found is half that and the staff actually seems like they care about cats. Wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. Read Less

Great place for boarding. Costs $30/day at the time of this review. The place is in extremely good shape and looks more like a resort for dogs than a veterinary clinic. As an added bonus they send you a text every other day of your pet with a cool update. (See my included picture.) My Rottweiler has stayed here twice over a two year period and the experience has been great.Read Less

Wonderful staff and doctors! I only visited once for a specific procedure that my local vet was not able to perform on site. The procedure confirmed some bad news for my dog, but the staff was so sweet to her and made it as comfortable as possible for her. When the bad news came Dr. Bordelon was very kind and informative, and sat and answered any questions I had. Also the the clinic is open late hours which is very convenient, and has an attached pet resort. Highly recommended! Read Less

To our friends at Lafayette Veterinary Care Center: Thank you for taking such good care of our rescued fur babies. Dusty (our Shih Tsu) and Mr. O€Malley (our Lhasa/terrier) are so dear to us. They are family. We appreciate all you have done to help them lead healthy, happy lives. When they feel good, we feel good. Everyone from veterinarians, ancillary staff, office personnel and grooming have treated us with the utmost courtesy, skill, professionalism and sincere concern. Can€t get any better than that! Dusty and Mr O say, €Thank you€ € and so do we. Linda and Bill Gleason Read Less

Called today because my dog ate a mint chocolate protein bar. Lindsay asked the ingredients but since we did not know the amount of chocolate in the bar she called the company and found out the amount and talked to one of the vets, only to find out it wasn't enough to cause concern. I don't think you can find this quality of customer service and patient care anywhere else! Read Less

Best vet ever! Their staff is very friendly and attentive. They truly do care about the animals! The location is convenient and the building is extremely clean. They also offer affordable payment options through Care Credit. I would recommend this place for all picky pet owners! :) Read Less

I use the pet resort for my dog. I love having it attached to a vet's office. And I always get pictures of my dog during her stay. It always makes me feel better. They also offer services like grooming and playtime.Read Less

I have never been more grateful for a human being as I for Dr Angie!! Through the joys of bringing a new family member for their first visit to the heartbreaking moment when you have to say goodbye, Dr Angie has been there, she's laughed with us and cried with us and has such an amazing gift! We love everyone at LVCC and would never think of going anywhere else, thanks to you all for being such an amazing team!!Read Less

I love this place. I started with them when Doc Doiran and Andy Plauche were on Johnston street with my precious Beau and now go to them for my little girl Mia. A big thanks to Dr Angie Sanders for finding those stones in her bladder yesterday and taking such great care in removing them. You are the best. Read Less

Was not our regular veterinarian, but had an after hours emergency. Everyone was so sweet and accommodating. When things did turn out has we had hoped and prayed, Dr Young and staff were compassionate and patient as we made the most difficult decision a pet parent has to make. They let us stay as long as we felt we needed even though they were closed. They never rushed our decision and I thank them very much. Very professional staff. Read Less

LVCC is hands down the best clinic i have ever used! Dr Bordelon and the entire staff have gone above and beyond while caring for my 10 yr old boxer. they made me feel comfortable and i knew Bella was in the very best hands to handle her surgery and recovery. i will without a doubt continue using LVCC for all my Veterinary needs! Update: I can't thank Dr Dusty and Vanessa for coming out at 930 last night to help get our sweet girl over the rainbow bridge. Their compassion and kind hearts during this time was remarkable. Even in Bella's last moments her love for you two was undeniable. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!Read Less

I want to send a great big THANK YOU all the way from Louisville Kentucky for allowing Angel Jones to set up an account for our very much loved Keith Burke Jones!! I trust in Angel and her judgement, if she says he's in the best hands I am confident he is!! Without the love and compassion and donations sent from all these individuals and the patience you all have to collect them, Keith would not have a chance at life. Hopefully Angel can tell you his story if she hasn't already done so, this way you too, can know why he means so much to so many people. Again, Thank you!!Read Less

I had a wonderful experience with this hospital.. We saved a puppy from bad conditions and then things got bad so we brought him into the hospital and thank goodness we did because it turned out our rescued puppy named Buddy had Parvo.. The Hospital was able to work with us by not admitting him into the hospital due to our limited funds gave him meds and fluids and a great recommendation for a vet to follow up with the following day... We are so pleased to report one week later parvo Buddy has made 180 degree change and is doing wonderful and instead of showing he felt like he was on his death bed and today completely full of puppy liveliness... Thank you so much for your help.. We are forever thankful to have saved Buddy not only from bad situation but also his life from Parvo... Thank you again and again and an extra one to Alicia..Read Less

I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to the staff of Lafayette Veterinary Care Center for all of their help in treating Jake over the last 14 months. Jake loved all of you guys and especially bonded with Vanessa, Doctor Patrick and a few others during all the time that he spent with you guys. As many times as Jake had to be poked and prodded, he could not wait to get out of my truck to go visit everyone there. When those inevitable final moments came this past Monday, everything was handled with the utmost dignity and respect and I will never forget what you guys have done for Jake and our family. Jake even went swimming that day which is what he enjoyed more than anything. We got to say our goodbyes with a very understanding staff in a nice setting. Very special thanks goes out to Doctor Patrick for going well above and beyond the call of duty with Jake on numerous occasions. There are just no words for the amount of gratitude that I have for you giving Jake so much more time with us. That time was the most precious thing that I could ever ask for. Jake loves you guys and hopefully is smiling down with his constantly wagging tail from above. Eternally GratefulRead Less

This is the most compassionate and caring vet I have EVER been too and I've been to a lot. (Used to own a rescue). I brought my 7year old pit to be put to sleep and I just knew it was gonna be this cold hearted procedure. We got there they had a bed made for him fed him a whole BAG of treats let him eat a whopper and a sundae. And the doctor even sat on the floor to give him his shot. They gave us a coffin AND footprint momentos. The doctor hugged me. It was one of the hardest times in our lives that was turned into a beautiful ceremony. I will not stop here on spreading how amazing they are. Read Less

I was immediately welcomed by the staff and was able to check-in within seconds. They have a nice area (slightly separated from other chairs) with a cart for you to put your cat carrier up high so you can see your cat! The appointment was right on time and they even had three staff members in the room to help make the appointment go quickly because my cat was a little nervous. I'll definitely be taking him here in the future and I'm sure he'll get more used to the room and not need to be bundled in a towel kitty burrito! Thanks for great service. Read Less

Wow,  what can I see about this place.  Refreshing,  amazing,  caring,  we'll informed,  updated technology,  truly caring people,  the most informative vet session I have ever experienced.  Our pet is an older golden retriever and I felt like they truly took an interest in his health. They diagnosed something that was explained as "he's an old dog"  one week ago at another vet. Read Less

After driving my dog Maddie all the way to BR for last year's annual, I finally decided to switch to a vet in Lafayette. The experience we had this morning was exceptional, and I have a plethora of nice things to say about Dr. Sanders and the staff overall. Maddie is typically extremely skittish in new places, but when we walked in she felt right at home! She was given treats, kisses and hugs. Her nurses, Dana and Cadence, were so nice and informative...and Dr. Sanders was absolutely in love with her!!! So relieved that my sweet girl will be in their care from now on. If you're looking for a vet, I highly recommend LVCC. Thank you Danielle Pitre for the suggestion!!!Read Less

I have a senior pet and was very concerned about her care. Dr. Bordelon and his staff, particularly his procedure nurse, spent time with me, answered all my questions, and made sure my very anxious dog was comfortable before, during, and after the procedure. Additionally, their confidential patient updates portion of their app kept a nervous dog mom fully informed throughout her procedure. A great experience! Read Less

Absolutely impressed with all services and staff members who took Fantastic care of my baby Pistache! I can't rave enough about the doctors and nurses. My yorkie Pistache had knee surgery on both back knees and stayed in the hospital for a week. We were very lonesome but the text message updates and photos helped ease our pain of loneliness. We are faithful and dedicated to loving all 6 of our pups with after hours open till 10pm is a great relief should something go wrong. We tell everyone who will listen about how wonderful Lafayette Vet Care Center is!Read Less

Our quadraped "Heidi" loves coming to LVCC! She is enthusiastic regardless of whether we are going to the Resort or Veterinary side. That is the highest testamony any veterinary hospital can have, total acceptance by their patient! Thanks for all you do to help us keep Heidi well and healthy. Read Less

Awesome! Caring, attentive, and professional. Our Coco was very ill and Lafayette Veterinary Care Center took the time to get us in quick and relentlessly cared for her. They answered all of our questions and were always happy to give us updates whether we called many times a day or early or late in the day. In fact,they encouraged us to contact them with any questions. The staff were so kind and considerate of our worries and concerns. Dr. Sanders was a miracle worker and went above and beyond to care for our Coco! Thank you Lafayette Veterinary Care Center for providing us the comfort and reliability we were looking for at such an emotional time with our baby kitten!Read Less

This place is phenomenal!! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for, or looking to switch Vet.'s. The staff is extremely friendly and the hours of operation are super nice. Unless something drastic happens or changes, these folks will continue to get my business. As a side note, the whole facility looks like a spa and not a veterinary clinic!! VERY clean and fresh smelling!! Read Less

Best vet's office I've ever seen! They truly care and love every animal that comes through the door. They have a grooming salon and a pet resort that is attached to the veterinary building. The kennels where the dogs are boarded are very clean, large and comfortable. They do anything and everything they can to make you pet feel comfortable no matter what he/she is there for.I have one dog who is the nicest, friendliest and calmest dog I've ever owned ... Until he sees the metal table in the exam room. He begins to growl, breathe heavily, flail around, and basically becomes uncontrollable. They work together to try to do anything and everything they can to calm him down and make him feel comfortable. Unfortunately he requires sedation, but they're still very loving and friendly. Some vet's offices become annoyed and frustrated with dogs that get so nervous and stressed in the exam room... Not here. I would recommend this vet to anyone who is looking for a new vet, or is unsure about their current vet. If they're more expensive than your vet, I assure you it's worth it. They have an extremely clean and nice facility as well as all the newest and up-to-date equipment. Best vet in town for sure!! Read Less
