At first they seem very friendly and know what they're doing, but after two very bad experiences with the staff. I am looking for another vet. First, on Wednesday I called needing medicine. I was told they would call me back, they did not. On Friday, I called again stating that I only had one dose left, I was told she would check into it and call me back. I NEVER got a call back. Monday I called again and was told it was ready for pick up on Friday. Smh Next, I went Monday to get the meds. That's when I got charged double for the second time. I had to make two trips to deal with their mistake. On two different occasions they charged me for two ounces of medicine $154 when I only received one ounce. (The first time, months ago, they fixed it and gave me the amount that I paid for, This time they didn't.) This time they told me maybe someone could help me next week and they were not able to do anything. That's when I gave the meds back said I don't want to argue about it and I don't want anymore excuses I want my money back. Then, in an attempt to give me a refund they ran my credit card 4 times and told me she couldn't give me a receipt. I was not offered or given a receipt. When I said I wasn't leaving without something in writing stating that I was not going to be charged, the " tech" got pissy with me. The "tech" scolded me for yelling when I never raised my voice, but I was clearly upset, I had to wait for days, I had to make two trips to the clinic, I didn't get what I was there for and all I was getting was excuses that nobody could do anything, I was told again, maybe next week someone could help me. Finally, I called to speak to the manager Richard Brinkley on Thursday, he is in the office but he's not available and he to does not return my phone call. Read Less

Those of you that keep reptiles know how difficult it is to find a vet that will treat them. Dr. Enderson will treat reptiles, and is very knowledgeable about them. He has seen several of my snakes and does everything he can for them when something goes wrong. He removed a cancerous tumor from my yellow rat snake, prolonging her life for several more years, for instance. It's such a relief to have a vet here that knows reptiles, and even goes the extra mile if need be. Five stars is not enough. Read Less

I went in due to a friend recommending a vet she uses frequently. I went with my two dogs. One is 6 lbs and one is 5 lbs. I went to just get them their yearly shots. The examine plus the shots was over $200 for a 10 minute 5 shot appointment. I was rushed throughout the appointment. The vet was disinterested in any questions and seemed to just want the appointment over. I'm am EXTREMELY disappointed in the service as well as shocked that their prices were excessively high. Not worth the money. I will not be going back. Very disappointed all around. Read Less

Our family are long time clients of Bradford Park and Grant Avenue. Our dog's have received top quality care and the doctor's are always engaging and care about the comfort of the dogs.I am disappointed to learn Amy Blevins, long time staff member and manager, is no longer associated with either Hospital. Amy was the reason I stayed with BP/GA after a negative experience with a current front desk person. Amy reassured me I would not need to interact with the hater [my word] and she would make sure future visits were professional and smooth. She kept her promise.It's unfortunate BP/GA were sold to National Veterinary Associates, a corporate business. The first time the personal touch I appreciated about BP/GA and Amy disappears, I'll be looking for a new veterinary facility. Read Less

Bradford Park Veterinary Hospital saved our precious baby's life. Amos, our 13-year-old Basset/Beagle, was diagnosed with a massive tumor in his stomach that abscessed and perforated into his gut, thus becoming septic. He went under emergency surgery in the skillful hands of Dr. Shelley. It was a long shot that he would pull through because of the severity of situation, but Dr. Shelley worked a miracle with our boy. All the technicians and the staff were extremely helpful, kind, and positive. Dr. Wiest worked with us throughout the whole process with the utmost professionalism, honesty, and care. A heartfelt shout out goes to Shawna for taking a personal interest in Amos and keeping us updated on his progress. Bradford Park Veterinary Hospital is undoubtedly the best in the area, unparalleled in their physicians, staff, and services. I am forever grateful to them for saving Amos' life. Read Less

Said she was in pain and could not do anything to help her. Is this legal to do this? Do they have that right and is there nothing at all they could do for the pain until they talked to me? Or is this normal procedure? Read Less

Bradford Park is absolutely wonderful, they saved my dogs life. My dog, Bowser, recently had to have emergency surgery to remove string that was wrapped around his intestines. I am so very appreciative of Dr. Sifferman who is our normal Vet and Dr. Shelly who preformed the surgery. The Doctors kept me updated on Bowsers condition before, during, and after his surgery. He ended up having an incision that was about 8 inches long and over 20 staples in his stomach. It has been over a month now since his surgery and he is completely back to his old self! The staff at bradford Park is always very helpful and friendly and you can tell that they truely care about the animals. If you want your animals to recieve the best care at the best price, without a doubt this is where you should take them! Read Less

I live an hour away from this hospital and I was having major problems with my dog. I was told that Bradford Park was the place to go and get the answers I needed. Unfortunately, I didn't ever get to an answer and eventually had to put my dog down, but the main reason for this review is to tell everyone about one particular doctor. Her name is Dr. W at the hospital. She was very sweet when she had to take over my dogs case when Dr. Enderson was out. I love Dr. Enderson he really understood how much I thought of my dog as my daughter and how much I would do anything to make her better. Dr. W seen my dog for an extreme case and we had to make the decision to let her go. I was so upset but I knew it was the best thing. The night we did this Dr. W helped me and was very pushy about getting me and my family members out of the office so things wen't super fast. I felt I was being pushed along but I also thought it was part of their job to do that so you don't linger around. I had my dog cremated. I waited the 15-20 days and never heard a word. I also waited another week thinking things were just busy. I was so upset that I had a friend call and found out Dr. W never todl them I wanted her ashes back. My dog's remains were long gone. She admitted she was wrong but her story doesn't check out. They still want me to pay the bill and I think that is horrible. I spent thousands of dollars there already and this is something they can't take back and make right. I would recommend Dr. Enderson to anyone but please do not put your dog's health, life, & wellbeing in the hands of Dr. Wittu! Read Less
