The staff at Animal Medical Center is absolutely phenomenal. Our dog had a medical emergency and Animal Medical Center went above and beyond to take care of him even before the vet had arrived. They were kind, caring, knowledgeable, and professional. We are so grateful for them and will likely be switching from our current vet to them because of this wonderful experience. Highly recommend for any of your pet's needs!

Probably the best thing I can say about this place is that quite often we come in for a visit and they absolutely remember my dog, and it is not as if we are there all the time.

I love this guy ( Dr. Andy Roark of Facebook Veterinarian fame. But I like our Vet best. We have been with the same veterinarian office for almost 30 years. they got us through Chipper's death( Chipper is the dog I credit with saving Margaret's life). multiple cats. and the death of our favorite most beloved cat of all time, Ruthie and they are very kind about Naomi's bad behavior that has gone on for almost 13 years... Naomi, well last night she woke in the night and peed on the mattress... that would would be our mattress not hers. she is sort of the drunk uncle of dogs, but we still love her. On the day our daughter went into labor, I took her in to be boarded and was out of there in five minutes. Our vets office got us through the big bat invasion, the rabies shots etc. Well the CDC and our pediatrician got us through that one too. When Naomi got loose early in the summer, she ran off into the neighborhood and I was on my way to the vet to take Ruthie.... she was very sick. I dropped Ruthie off, and spent a good hour hour looking up and down the neighborhood. from Gregory to 79th Wornall . As I talked to some teenage boys around 79th and Oak they told me they had seen her running fast and going West. About that time the phone rang and it was Mary at Animal Medical Center. I half expected bad news about Ruthie, but it seems that Naomi had gone to see her doctor. She waited outside the entrance and went in when another customer arrived. She then sat under a chair and waited for someone to notice her. Funniest story we recall from this thirty years of being part of this practice. So, Dr. Andy Roark..... these relationships you forge.... they are decades long and involve many many family members. Thanks for the work that Veterinarians do. It keeps us all very human. But I like Animal Medical Center best.

After 14 years of taking my pets to Animal Medical Center, I am done with AMC. Dr Kaemmer informed me today that for several months now, one of my dogs has been very difficult during his boarding stays. When I asked why this was the first I'd heard of it, she said "maybe my staff was scared to tell you for fear of how you'd react". She also said that the staff there get bitten by pets all of the time, and if they told all pet owners about incidents where their pets act up, the pet owners would turn it back on AMC and be critical of AMC's care. First of all, Dr. Kaemmer, as owner of AMC, should take full responsibility for what her staff does or doesn't do. Withholding information from owners about their pets' behaviors can be dangerous. One of the reoccurring issues, which no one ever mentioned to me until today, is that my dog with the reportedly bad behavior has been "attacking" my other dog while in boarding. While I can't even imagine how my 40-pound dog could "attack" my 70-pound dog without serious retribution, if it is, in fact, happening, I NEED TO KNOW THIS. They've allowed me to continue to board them together in the same kennel knowing they do not do well when boarded together. Withholding this information about my pets' behavior has proven to be detrimental to their well-being, as I've continued to board them together thinking all is well. I can tell you all is not well at AMC...They're more concerned about their reputation than the well-being of the pets in their care.

I love these guys. Mary is my go to without a doubt. She does not sugar coat and she tells you straight how it is. That was when I knew I would always be told the complete truth.

I agree, you are not your average bear, you sound very UNEDUCATED and unaware of what is going on around and don't take the time to find out.My guess is that you knew exactly how much it was going to cost and just didn't want to pay your bill. You like a lot of people just want everything for nothing and think the world owes you something.I have been going to this clinic since the early 90s and I have never heard this type of issue. They always tell me how much it is going to be before anything is done. I love Dr Joi, she is the greatest and explains everything in detail.Also, I have 4 pets on their health plan which saves me a lot of money over the entire year for services, medicines and food. The clinic is always clean, the exam rooms are bright and cheerful. All the employees love my pets and treat them with great respect. The only thing they want is what is best for my pets.If you pet had flea bites, yes they would tell you about it. They never charge for anything unless they call me. I am sure they tried to call you but I also am guessing you either didn't answer your phone or just didn't bother to give them a good number to reach you at. Grow up and understand the world doesn't owe you anything.

I can see why some people would be irate about paying bills to this place. I took my dog there for a simple neutering, he's an adult dog about 75lbs. Guess how much they wanted for just that procedure.. $325.. and this was on their supposedly "Half Price Tuesdays&Thursdays" Now I've owned several dogs throughout my life, and I'll admit the last time I had a dog neutered before now was the early 90's, but back then it cost me about $45 all around to have a similar size dog neutered. I have a hard time believing that the price to have a dog neutered has gone up to almost eight times that. This place is dirty inside, unkempt is a better word and if I had known a half price neutering was going to cost me over $300 I would've just had it done at the humane society for $50. They wouldn't have tried to toss 90days worth of frontline on the end of the bill either, while claiming my dog who neither him or my cat have ever had fleas in over 5 years of owning the both of them, "Needed it" because he didn't have fleas, but he had bites.. Really? You think they got out a microscope and poke through his hair to find flea bites? I highly doubt it. Never again will I bring a pet of mine to this place.

The reviews I've read on here tell me that only people that complain are those that don't want to pay their bill. How many times have you went to the doctor and been told it will be one amount and they find other issues before they are through? Look people!! Do you want your pet taken care of or not?? If money is your only issue, don't take them to the vet at all. Or better yet, give your pet away as you aren't a good owner in the first place!I love this place, they always try to save me money. My cat loves going to see the vet because she is given great care and loved while she is there.

Most of the doctors at this facility are great. If you pay attention to what you're being told, there are usually no surprises. I noticed problems with some of the people at the front desk in the past, but everyone seems great now! They even helped me save money on my bill, which surprised the heck out of me. I get the feeling that a lot of reviews I have seen are by people who just did not want to pay their bill.

I wish I'd done more research on this business before I went there. Unfortunately I had my cat neutered there and he also received shots. The employees there act as if they are doing you a favor to even acknowledge your presence. I had several questions and they were very annnoyed that I asked. When you ask about the costs involved, they only thing they can say is ""You'd save money if you sign up with out health plan"" They really PUSH you to enroll in their monthy plan to send them money continually. Maybe it's a good deal but they are so pushy about it. They finally did tell me what the costs were but when I arrived to pick up my cat, the bill was significantly more than I'd been quoted. I questioned the bill and was immediately talked down to and talked ugly too. I've never been treated worse in my life. There was an older woman customer there at the same time who questioned a bill and they were just plain rude to her. When she left, the employees blatantly and loudly talked terrible about her and called her very unkind names. The woman had been very polite & they spoke terrible aboout her. I would never return to Animal Medical Center. I'm sure they probably talked about me when I left as well. I told another woman at my office about my experience and she said she'd changed vets several years ago after she'd been badly treated at Animal Medical Center. I found another vet right around the corner and they are much more professional and the building is much cleaner and better kept. Also, Animal Medical Center is very dirty and has a strong stench.

I've personally had nothing but bad experiences with Animal Medical Center. Two of their vets are somewhat personable and possibly competent. Dr. Williams, the owner, is very old, rude, and oblivious to the lousy customer service provided. Complaints about his staff always result in the staff being defended, complaints about being overcharged or charged for unauthorized services result in vicious attacks on the customers. It's not unusual to have more than once argument over billing or unauthorized services going on in their lobby at once. Many intenet sites have negative comments about this business and the business usually responds by attacking the customer personally. They realize their business plan, customer service, attitude, cleanliness, services, and attitude cannot be defended so they attack any customer bold enough to complain. I recently had dinner with a neighbor who described being treated badly by the staff at Animal Medical Center and another neighbor and I had to laugh. He'd found out what long time residents of the neighborhood know. Patronizing Animal Medical Center is a critical error in judgement. As bad as they consistently treat humans, can you imagine how the animals are treated.

My family has brought our pets here for at least 30 years, me for more than 15 years. When I have to go out of town, my sweet Henry Jay is in such good hands. He has no anxiety when he goes there and none when he comes home. They are the best!

After 14 years of taking my pets to Animal Medical Center, I am done with AMC. Dr Kaemmer informed me today that for several months now, one of my dogs has been very difficult during his boarding stays. When I asked why this was the first I'd heard of it, she said "maybe my staff was scared to tell you for fear of how you'd react". She also said that the staff there get bitten by pets all of the time, and if they told all pet owners about incidents where their pets act up, the pet owners would turn it back on AMC and be critical of AMC's care. First of all, Dr. Kaemmer, as owner of AMC, should take full responsibility for what her staff does or doesn't do. Withholding information from owners about their pets' behaviors can be dangerous. One of the reoccurring issues, which no one ever mentioned to me until today, is that my dog with the reportedly bad behavior has been "attacking" my other dog while in boarding. While I can't even imagine how my 40-pound dog could "attack" my 70-pound dog without serious retribution, if it is, in fact, happening, I NEED TO KNOW THIS. They've allowed me to continue to board them together in the same kennel knowing they do not do well when boarded together. Withholding this information about my pets' behavior has proven to be detrimental to their well-being, as I've continued to board them together thinking all is well. I can tell you all is not well at AMC...They're more concerned about their reputation than the well-being of the pets in their care.

I love these guys. Mary is my go to without a doubt. She does not sugar coat and she tells you straight how it is. That was when I knew I would always be told the complete truth. My dogs know these people, after all they were there when our house burned. I have never had a vet a really trusted. This is the place for the straight scoop on your furry baby or in my case babies.

I agree, you are not your average bear, you sound very UNEDUCATED and unaware of what is going on around and don't take the time to find out.My guess is that you knew exactly how much it was going to cost and just didn't want to pay your bill. You like a lot of people just want everything for nothing and think the world owes you something.I have been going to this clinic since the early 90s and I have never heard this type of issue. They always tell me how much it is going to be before anything is done. I love Dr Joi, she is the greatest and explains everything in detail.Also, I have 4 pets on their health plan which saves me a lot of money over the entire year for services, medicines and food. The clinic is always clean, the exam rooms are bright and cheerful. All the employees love my pets and treat them with great respect. The only thing they want is what is best for my pets.If you pet had flea bites, yes they would tell you about it. They never charge for anything unless they call me. I am sure they tried to call you but I also am guessing you either didn't answer your phone or just didn't bother to give them a good number to reach you at. Grow up and understand the world doesn't owe you anything.

I can see why some people would be irate about paying bills to this place. I took my dog there for a simple neutering, he's an adult dog about 75lbs. Guess how much they wanted for just that procedure.. $325.. and this was on their supposedly "Half Price Tuesdays&Thursdays" Now I've owned several dogs throughout my life, and I'll admit the last time I had a dog neutered before now was the early 90's, but back then it cost me about $45 all around to have a similar size dog neutered. I have a hard time believing that the price to have a dog neutered has gone up to almost eight times that. This place is dirty inside, unkempt is a better word and if I had known a half price neutering was going to cost me over $300 I would've just had it done at the humane society for $50. They wouldn't have tried to toss 90days worth of frontline on the end of the bill either, while claiming my dog who neither him or my cat have ever had fleas in over 5 years of owning the both of them, "Needed it" because he didn't have fleas, but he had bites.. Really? You think they got out a microscope and poke through his hair to find flea bites? I highly doubt it. Never again will I bring a pet of mine to this place.

The reviews I've read on here tell me that only people that complain are those that don't want to pay their bill. How many times have you went to the doctor and been told it will be one amount and they find other issues before they are through? Look people!! Do you want your pet taken care of or not?? If money is your only issue, don't take them to the vet at all. Or better yet, give your pet away as you aren't a good owner in the first place!I love this place, they always try to save me money. My cat loves going to see the vet because she is given great care and loved while she is there.

I just moved to town and I took my cat here. I was very dissappointed in the lack of communication and the quickness for which they got me out of there. Not all of the staff were this way... but a few really made me feel rushed, which I thought was rude. I would not recommend them to another.

Most of the doctors at this facility are great. If you pay attention to what you're being told, there are usually no surprises. I noticed problems with some of the people at the front desk in the past, but everyone seems great now! They even helped me save money on my bill, which surprised the heck out of me. I get the feeling that a lot of reviews I have seen are by people who just did not want to pay their bill.

I wish I'd done more research on this business before I went there. Unfortunately I had my cat neutered there and he also received shots. The employees there act as if they are doing you a favor to even acknowledge your presence. I had several questions and they were very annnoyed that I asked. When you ask about the costs involved, they only thing they can say is ""You'd save money if you sign up with out health plan"" They really PUSH you to enroll in their monthy plan to send them money continually. Maybe it's a good deal but they are so pushy about it. They finally did tell me what the costs were but when I arrived to pick up my cat, the bill was significantly more than I'd been quoted. I questioned the bill and was immediately talked down to and talked ugly too. I've never been treated worse in my life. There was an older woman customer there at the same time who questioned a bill and they were just plain rude to her. When she left, the employees blatantly and loudly talked terrible about her and called her very unkind names. The woman had been very polite & they spoke terrible aboout her. I would never return to Animal Medical Center. I'm sure they probably talked about me when I left as well. I told another woman at my office about my experience and she said she'd changed vets several years ago after she'd been badly treated at Animal Medical Center. I found another vet right around the corner and they are much more professional and the building is much cleaner and better kept. Also, Animal Medical Center is very dirty and has a strong stench.

I've personally had nothing but bad experiences with Animal Medical Center. Two of their vets are somewhat personable and possibly competent. Dr. Williams, the owner, is very old, rude, and oblivious to the lousy customer service provided. Complaints about his staff always result in the staff being defended, complaints about being overcharged or charged for unauthorized services result in vicious attacks on the customers. It's not unusual to have more than once argument over billing or unauthorized services going on in their lobby at once. Many intenet sites have negative comments about this business and the business usually responds by attacking the customer personally. They realize their business plan, customer service, attitude, cleanliness, services, and attitude cannot be defended so they attack any customer bold enough to complain. I recently had dinner with a neighbor who described being treated badly by the staff at Animal Medical Center and another neighbor and I had to laugh. He'd found out what long time residents of the neighborhood know. Patronizing Animal Medical Center is a critical error in judgement. As bad as they consistently treat humans, can you imagine how the animals are treated.

I moved to Lees Summit several years ago and still go to the trouble to take my baby to AMC. I love their Health Plan, it saves me money that otherwise I wouldnt be able to spend. All the Vet's are great and the staff is caring and attentive. They remember my pets name and greet her when we enter the door. I've had to wait a time to two to see the dr but not near as long as I have waited for my doctor. Thanks a million AMC!!
