Langley Animal Hospital

We found one of our guinea pigs, Momo, had severe bloat this morning, showing all the classic symptoms. We called two dozen animal hospitals in the area, and this was the only one that claimed to be able to treat guinea pigs. It turns out that was a lie. When we arrived, the doctor clearly had never heard of bloat (a common condition in guinea pigs) and believed the mass on Momo's abdomen was a tumor, even after we explained that it had appeared suddenly overnight, and even he stuck a needle in and pulled out gas. When we tried to explain what bloat is and suggest some of the common veterinary treatments we've found online, he insisted that surgery was required, which is not the treatment for bloat, and would almost certainly kill her. He didn't even offer to do an xray to confirm. We left with Momo soon after. The "office visit" charge for basically 5 minutes of incompetent service was $60. The office is rundown, smells badly, and has shelves full of jars of tumors and fetuses on display like some kind of sideshow. Avoid this place at all cost. Read Less

I am very disappointed with the service here. 1st off  had my dogs ears docked after surgery they used regular first aid tape to wrap his ears at first I though this was ok until I started to look their was no kind of gauze their to protect the open bloody wounds from the tape. Days later when I went to remove the tape it hurt my dog so bad it took me 2 hours to remove this pulling on my puppy's open wounds and stitches. When I removed the tape I found the 2nd issue which was a small laceration in the opposite direction of how a dogs ears should be clipped. Stupid me I figured it would heal but didn't not even a 6 days later my dogs ear was so swollen and infected By this time he was already under the care of our normal vet And he has been on antibiotics and pain meds since day one. The infection is so bad my dog is losing his ear. In less then two weeks my dog was healthy and happy and now is on so much medication to protect his body from fighting this infection and is in the process of loosing half of his ear. This doctor came recommended that he did good work has been doing it forever maybe so he has but their is no reason on why after surgery my dog is in this much pain to remove tape let alone to loose his precious ear. Do not go here if you want to keep your dog healthy!! He will be reported to the state veterinary officer and actions will be taken place cause I do not want what has happened to my precious baby to happen to another animal! ****pictures are graphic!!! If you have a weak stomach do not look**** Read Less

I've been bringing my pets here since I was a young girl; I don't typically have problems with this place, but the doctor(s) do have thick accents that I still have trouble with (as I'm not as regular as I use to be due to having a clinic that is closer to me now). As long as you communicate with your doctor then there should be no issues. This place is inexpensive compared to other places I've visited and all of my pets have done well under their service. All in all a decent place that has been around a LONG time. They will remain my "go to" clinic for major issues as their prices are reasonable. Read Less

My dog Baby Girl is the third dog I have brought here. Service continues to be good. Dr. Dillon and Dr. Raj always take good care of me and my pets. They are patient and explain to me what is going on with my dog. Auxiliary help is also very friendly, knowledgeable and have good rapport with my dog.Read Less

Took kitten in for a spay. Was quoted a price of $112, ended up being $160. Vet is far too expensive. Was told by someone else that this vet worked with Alley Cat and was inexpensive. No excuse whatsoever for trying to charge the max for everything. If you do go, make sure you request a list of charges. Also vet charges before you ever get a list of what you were charged. Will not be returning ever again. I do not have unlimited income and this visit nearly broke me. Read Less

My 18 yr old cat was very ill and I was able to walk right in and be seen. The doctor was very kind and patient with me and my cat. They took great care of him and put my mind at ease. I will be taking both my cats there.Read Less

The worst ear crop I've ever had on any of my dogs. I gave this vet pictures and told him exactly what kind of show crop I wanted. My puppy came out botched and with the ugliest crop ever. Extremely short and wide. Do not go to these people! They don't listen to your desires and only do what they want. I am certain this guy has no clue how to do a show crop. Not to mention they quote you one price over the phone and when it comes time to pay it was HUNDREDS of dollars more than what they said the most expensive price could be. I had to take my puppy to the emergency vet a few days afterwards because the guy taped the ears so tight and didn't stitch them together so meat was hanging out. The emergency veterinarian said that my dog had a horrible ear crop and even asked who did it! Vets rarely ever talk about each other but they made it clear that this vet was very uneducated about how ear crops should be done. Beware to anyone who goes here especially ones looking for a vet that does ear crops. Read Less

They are definitely not time conscious. Both doctors seemed hesitant with answers about simple things that I would expect to be protocol. They also asked for pmt up front then tacked on an extra $90+ after tx even though I specifically asked if everything, including meds was included in the quote of $260. I wound up with a total of $420. Little post op instructions were given. I would have liked to ask more questions but they didn't speak English well so it would have been useless. I feel so horrible for subjecting my kitten to that place. Read Less

Took our new puppy boxer there once we found out they performed ear cropping. The surgery went very well. They had Romo a full day and took good care of him. Follow up care was good. It's been about six weeks since his operation and his ears are beautiful. Wonderful job. The location is very inconvenient, near a very busy intersection off 410 and Riggs Rd. Also, not respectful of client's time and appointment times are not always honored. Twice I've gone to be told the vet is in surgery and I would have to wait an hour or come back. Would appreciate a notification call before I make a 45 minute drive for nothing. Yes I will continue to use for now.Read Less

Both of my dogs, Maverick and Charlie, are seen in this office. The front staff is always very nice and welcoming. The doctors we have seen are also great.. They really take time to get to know them and take excellent care of my fur babies. They always leave in a happy mood and love the attention they receive when they are being examined. The prices and animal rescue group discounts are also very helpful. They are great, highly recommended! Read Less

They used to be pretty good, but they've gone downhill. Now they're overdependent on blood tests, overpriced, and tend to go back on promises. The final straw was when one of my cats died under their care. If they'd given him an X-ray, they might have actually seen what was wrong, but they relied entirely on a blood panel. Read Less

Dirty, slow even given little to no customers, try to financially pressure you for additional treatments and overcharge vis a vis what they quote you on the phone. $60 exam fee when no exam was performed? Won't be coming back. Read Less

I take all 3 of my doggies to Langley Animal Hospital. The service is amazing. Courteous, professional, and fees are much more inexpensive than other Vets in my area. They also provide boarding care. I will definitely be taking my dogs there as long as they are around. Read Less
