"Doc" as I call him can be very blunt and to the point. He has a dry sense of humor however I have never been more comfortable taking my animals to a vet. His vast knowledge and skill level is unlike any vet I have ever had. His main concern is the animals not how the owners feel. I seen the bad review and felt I needed to write a review because he can be easily misunderstood. With all of that said if you want a vet that focuses on the health of your animal and has more than reasonable pricing this is the vet for you. Read Less

Dr Henning is great. I only trust the BEST when it comes to my horses. He is to the point and does not sugar coat any information, just the way I expect my vet to approach me when it comes to my horses health and overall care. Rachel is equally has great and helpful.Read Less

Visited with an adopted dog from NE Humane Society to receive a rabie shot and free exam. This vet said no clinics in Omaha give free exams and if I keep the dog he has to charge for a visit. He states his taxes are very high and he can not give his services away. I check with three other clinics and they all offer free visits. He did not read the medical paper given to him before the exam and did not believe the NE Humane Society knew anything as they are just a bunch of volunteers and there is no way anyone would breed this dog. This Vet is only in this for the money, and he has no manners. Stay away. Also, his medical conclusion about my dog having a dermatology disease and possibly a pituitary gland issue and it is going to cost a great deal to keep him from suffering. I said fine, I will take her back the the Human Society so they can treat her. He said it probably won't show up in blood work yet so they won't treat her. Vet stated that I could give her a good life and then we can just end her life when the disease starts. It's the quality of life not the quantity. Also, I stated that I am on a fixed income and can not afford to treat if it is going to be expensive, he said "then maybe you should not own a dog." Read Less

If I could give a negative rating, I would. We took our dog to the Gretna Animal Clinic for an annual check-up since we just moved to town. The vet (I think he's probably the owner) said our dog's nails were too long and it might hurt his joints.  We were a bit behind on his nail trim schedule (we Dremel them ourselves) but by no means were they completely out of control.Long story short: The vet didn't suggest or even offer the option of trimming the nails on a regular basis to allow the quick to slowly recede, instead he told us to leave the room and cut through the quick on every single nail. They held down our dog on the counter and we heard him screaming with every snip from outside the room, which just broke my heart. When we went back in, my dog couldn't walk because of the sore nails and he was extremely scared.  We were stupid to just let it happen without saying anything, but in retrospect it angered us that he put our dog through that kind of trauma without offering the obvious choice of trimming just to the quick (where it wouldn't hurt) and trimming more often, which causes the quick to slowly and painlessly recede over time.Anyone who has a dog knows how hard it is to get them to be comfortable with having their nails trimmed.  It's a slow process that involves lots of treats and making the dog feel like he's not going to have his foot cut off.  Our dog was a particular challenge at first as he would bite and fight, so we had to use a muzzle at the beginning.  Then we slowly used treats and positive reinforcement to make it a happier, muzzle-free experience.   Needless to say, this experience was a major setback for us - thank God today our dog seems to have forgotten about this experience and still lets us trim his nails with a Dremel. To boot, the assistant tech was rude, and shushed me when I was trying to ask questions.  The vet is old school and basically didn't want to hear anything about what we heard on "that dang Internet", including whether or not a 10-in-1 vaccine is really necessary EVERY year (hint: it's not, but it IS a great cash cow if you're a vet).   The vet is probably good at large animals but definitely doesn't have the people skills or a sense of actually caring about animals appropriate for a small animal clinic. They treated us like we were ignorant fools and we certainly felt that way to have let them treat our pet the way they did.  If you have a dog, go somewhere else. You won't be sorry like I was.
