Goodrich Veterinary Clinic
Omaha, Nebraska
General Info
Goodrich Veterinary Clinic in Omaha delivers a veterinary experience defined by dynamic movement and tranquil stillness. This Nebraska clinic stands alone in its ability to adjust to changes in animal postures. The session initiates with spatial reading where practitioners examine how pets anchor their weight distribution alongside the frequency of their eye movements and whether tail motions display stability or hesitation. Staff members adjust their positions according to those readings by standing diagonally when direct approaches cause tension and using pauses instead of vocal cues when animals display over-attunement. Pets observe stationary initial tools placed in view which allows them to visually acclimate to the environment before engagement starts. Goodrich Veterinary Clinic delivers integrative diagnostics surgical consults pain tracking sensory response care and structured mobility rehabilitation. Every treatment process modifies itself during real time operation. Whenever a pet displays flattened posture or redirects its gaze, training sessions revert to anchoring techniques which may involve patterned movements or rhythmic steps to restore tranquility. Aftercare plans provide owners with techniques for visual and tactile pacing that include extending hands in side arcs and introducing movement contrast while guiding routine reentry through visual anchors. The post-visit behavior remains stable without unnecessary spikes while home care routines maintain their usual steadiness. Goodrich Veterinary Clinic delivers an intricate communication experience through silent cues and responsive timing to families in Omaha and pet owners across Nebraska.

Was referred by Petco to Goodrich Clinic for my rescue dog. The dog is so badly matted that Petco said that his first groom needed to be at veterinary clinic. Called Goodrich Clinic and explained the above. Was told the earliest appt would be the end of June. When I explained that dog is in immediate need, no response. So I asked if they could recommend any place else. They said all All About Dogs and then hung up on me. Will NOT be taking any of my pets to this clinic. Their customer service is abysmal.

Dr. Garner is absolutely fantastic. She takes the time to listen and explain all details. She always makes us feel like we are her only customer. I have not seen her partner but have friends who have and they also say she has an excellent bedside manner. I truly believe any ratings that are low have to do with the old owner cause we have been to this clinic a lot this year and they have all been wondeeful.

I have been using Goodrich for a little over a year for my dog. Never had an issue and they are usually very accommodating when emergencies have arisen. My dog is head first into walls stupid, but she absolutely loves going to this clinic and everybody that we have interacted with so far.
The two current veterinarians, Dr. Garner and Dr. Mongan, purchased the clinic two years ago from Dr. Goodrich, so please keep that in mind when you read other reviews as only the ones less than two years have any pertinence on the current clinic.

Not only does Goodrich go above and beyond for your pet, they'll do what they can to comfort you as well. One of their employees went out of her way to bring medicine to my place of work for my dog, and if that's not customer service I don't know what is! Their employees are kind and caring, and Dr. Mongan is talented with animals! She's smart and knows what she's doing, while maintaining a calm demeanor even with a scared pup. Love this place for treating us like family.

One of the best vet clinics I've visited. Caring staff and affordable prices. You can tell they really care about the animals- not just the money. One of the local rescue agencies, Homeward Bound, recommended this clinic to me, and I can definitely see why they use them. Will certainly be coming back.

My dog however, was recently taken ill on the Sunday. Because Yorkied are so prone to dehydration- I took him to an emergency vet clinic. While they provided a good service, it was not like going to Goodrich and seeing Dr. Mongan or Dr Garner- The reason for this review is because the following day Dr. Mongan called me to inquire how Oliver was doing. She also let me know that I could have called her on Sunday if I had concerns. I have had a few vets in my life experience but NEVER any so caring as the vets in this office! If this review offered 10 stars - Goodrich staff would be given all 10- I will never take my dogs anywhere else!

Since Dr. Goodrich himself retired it isn't the same and the 2 ladies who took over aren't as in-tune with the animals as Dr. Goodrich was. I have been bringing my dogs here for over 10 years. Never during that time have I been turned away for vet care. The vet herself turned me away and told me to go to an ER vet clinic because she couldn't do anything for me besides take an X-ray. Once I got to the ER Vet after the recommendation from the vet at Goodrich, they baulked at me and asked "So they only took an x-Ray at Goodrichs and sent you here without any other testing?" Yes, exactly what happened. The new owners of Goodrich don't care about you and it was a lesson learned the hard way. It's too bad since Dr. Goodrich was soo good with animals and ensuring their health. These new owners aren't anything like him.

There is nothing fun about going to the vet, but the work done here was great. Our cat had his leg amputated due to other medical problems, and the two vets that we worked with clearly cared a lot. We were really impressed by them, they were patient, answered our questions and were good about truly caring. We never had to wait long, and always were able to get in for important last-minute appointments.
Our negative experiences were entirely with their staff. After a vet told us they would give a discount for paying for the surgery in cash, we were scoffed and laughed at (literally) when we mentioned it to the clerk upfront. It happened after the vet was gone for the day. We were told we made up the policy. Each time we picked up medicine (4 times in the last 2 months) the staff never gave us instructions, simply handed it over and we had to ask what to do with it (because 1 or two times the bottles were unmarked with any instructions). If we ever called with a routine question ( ex) time it takes for a cat to recover after a declaw) we were told that they were unsure. We had to specifically ask the staff if someone would find out (because they did not volunteer to find out). Twice after leaving from procedures we were not told if there should be a follow-up appointment, and had to call after returning home to find out we indeed need to set something up.
We had great experiences when the vet picked up the phone directly, but the upfront staff left a terrible impression. Because the care of our pet is in the hands of the vet, we will likely go back. But a change in staff may be worth looking into.

Wasn't a huge fan of Dr. Goodrich and either were my animals. I almost left but then Dr. Garner started and she is amazing. My animals love her. With her, my dog doesn't need a muzzle when getting nails cut and my cat just purrs during visits. I can trust her judgement and opinions. I took my cat to a Vet that was closer to my home and their estimate for my cats surgery was expensive. Dr. Garner estimate was way less for the same if not better care.

My family have rescued two dogs in the past 3 years and are first time dog owners! Before adopting our first dog a bichon named Chester I contacted Dr. Melissa Garner for more information on the bichon breed and rescue dogs. She was patient and kind and walked me through the entire process. Of course, Dr. Garner was a natural choice for a vet. She has always been there for Chester and her expertise as a vet as kept Chester healthy and happy. When we adopted Candy this past June we wanted to take her with us on a family vacation to Canada. Candy is a Coton De Tulear and had no paper work as she came from a puppy mill. Dr. Garner again to the rescue, even though she was on vacation and wasn't in the office to help she hooked us up with Dr. Mongan. She did Candy's check up and health certificate so we could take Candy out of the country. She made sure that we were ready to go on time! Come to find out that she also had gone on a fishing trip to a nearby resort of the one we were going to. I would recommend these two fine ladies to any pet owner! They are the BEST hands down!

FIRST- HE Should have NO stars, but a rating is required... WORST experience with a vet EVER!! I took my animals here because they needed ongoing treatment that was quite pricey...I called around and their prices were reasonable. Well, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. Charging low prices is the only way this jerk could stay in business!!! I had read reviews that the vet was a jerk, but I've dealt with people who have mental illness and I thought I can deal with this jerk if it would be cheaper, as long as he was good with my animals. He is more than a jerk, he is an as@#le. He's got major personality problems. He didn't care about my animals and even told me, ""Next time if you don't ask me anything, it'll be cheaper!"" in a disgusted tone. I went back for the maintenance meds and he was a complete jerk, beyond professional! By the time I left, he hadn't treated my animals and had me in tears and was still ""yelling"" at me! All this because I was ""wasting"" his time by asking questions!! I ended up walking out stating we would NEVER be back. He is a complete jerk. He has an anti-social personality and NO EMPATHY or COMPASSION. I will never again subject my pets to his ""care"", HA, or myself to his degradation!! Get a clue, Dr. Goodrich!!!

DO NOT GO TO THIS VET! My dog nearly lost his leg. Took my 11 month old dog to this vet for a broken leg and he just threw a cast on it. The X-ray showed that the bones were not even aligned. He said that the body has a miraculous way of healing itself. That is how he explainedd the bones would heal, basically by themselves. Took my animal to another vet for a second opinion and they said the bones would never heal with the way this vet treated his leg. He had to have surgery to fix his leg. When they removed the cast they also found that the cast was not properly padded and an ulcer had started to appear from the poor casting. Don't take your animal to this vet!!!

We LOVE Dr. Mongan, she's a wonderfully compassionate doctor. She has cared four our dogs for many years.

Dr. Mongan has been great! It's really easy and quick to make an appointment, she is great with our pets, and the prices are hard to beat.

Was referred by Petco to Goodrich Clinic for my rescue dog. The dog is so badly matted that Petco said that his first groom needed to be at veterinary clinic. Called Goodrich Clinic and explained the above. Was told the earliest appt would be the end of June. When I explained that dog is in immediate need, no response. So I asked if they could recommend any place else. They said all All About Dogs and then hung up on me. Will NOT be taking any of my pets to this clinic. Their customer service is abysmal.

Dr. Garner is absolutely fantastic. She takes the time to listen and explain all details. She always makes us feel like we are her only customer. I have not seen her partner but have friends who have and they also say she has an excellent bedside manner. I truly believe any ratings that are low have to do with the old owner cause we have been to this clinic a lot this year and they have all been wondeeful.

Dr. Gardener and her staff are very nice and do an excellent job all the time. I couldn't be more pleased with my relationship with her and her staff.

They got my GSD in adapter after she got a butchers block bone stuck on her jaw. So glad they were there. And although it cost money it wasn't terribly expensive. Prices are great!

I have been using Goodrich for a little over a year for my dog. Never had an issue and they are usually very accommodating when emergencies have arisen. My dog is head first into walls stupid, but she absolutely loves going to this clinic and everybody that we have interacted with so far.
The two current veterinarians, Dr. Garner and Dr. Mongan, purchased the clinic two years ago from Dr. Goodrich, so please keep that in mind when you read other reviews as only the ones less than two years have any pertinence on the current clinic.

Not only does Goodrich go above and beyond for your pet, they'll do what they can to comfort you as well. One of their employees went out of her way to bring medicine to my place of work for my dog, and if that's not customer service I don't know what is! Their employees are kind and caring, and Dr. Mongan is talented with animals! She's smart and knows what she's doing, while maintaining a calm demeanor even with a scared pup. Love this place for treating us like family.

One of the best vet clinics I've visited. Caring staff and affordable prices. You can tell they really care about the animals- not just the money. One of the local rescue agencies, Homeward Bound, recommended this clinic to me, and I can definitely see why they use them. Will certainly be coming back. Also planning on using their boarding services this weekend for my cat while I am out of town.

My dog however, was recently taken ill on the Sunday. Because Yorkied are so prone to dehydration- I took him to an emergency vet clinic. While they provided a good service, it was not like going to Goodrich and seeing Dr. Mongan or Dr Garner- The reason for this review is because the following day Dr. Mongan called me to inquire how Oliver was doing. She also let me know that I could have called her on Sunday if I had concerns. I have had a few vets in my life experience but NEVER any so caring as the vets in this office! If this review offered 10 stars - Goodrich staff would be given all 10- I will never take my dogs anywhere else!

Since Dr. Goodrich himself retired it isn't the same and the 2 ladies who took over aren't as in-tune with the animals as Dr. Goodrich was. I have been bringing my dogs here for over 10 years. Never during that time have I been turned away for vet care. The vet herself turned me away and told me to go to an ER vet clinic because she couldn't do anything for me besides take an X-ray. Once I got to the ER Vet after the recommendation from the vet at Goodrich, they baulked at me and asked "So they only took an x-Ray at Goodrichs and sent you here without any other testing?" Yes, exactly what happened. The new owners of Goodrich don't care about you and it was a lesson learned the hard way. It's too bad since Dr. Goodrich was soo good with animals and ensuring their health. These new owners aren't anything like him.

Dr. Garner has been taking care of our 14 and half year old dog, Penny, since we rescued her as a puppy. Dr. Garner is very caring and is always so helpful with questions we have about our dog's health, especially now that she is in her senior years. I recommend her to all my friends.

Thrilled that Melissa Garner has her own clinic. We've been trusting her with the care of our sweet Wrigley for seven years. I wouldn't consider going anywhere else. Dr. Garner is not only intelligent and knowledgeable, but also caring and understanding. It's a blessing to have a vet you can trust and that you can count on to be there when needed. Highly recommend!

There is nothing fun about going to the vet, but the work done here was great. Our cat had his leg amputated due to other medical problems, and the two vets that we worked with clearly cared a lot. We were really impressed by them, they were patient, answered our questions and were good about truly caring. We never had to wait long, and always were able to get in for important last-minute appointments.
Our negative experiences were entirely with their staff. After a vet told us they would give a discount for paying for the surgery in cash, we were scoffed and laughed at (literally) when we mentioned it to the clerk upfront. It happened after the vet was gone for the day. We were told we made up the policy. Each time we picked up medicine (4 times in the last 2 months) the staff never gave us instructions, simply handed it over and we had to ask what to do with it (because 1 or two times the bottles were unmarked with any instructions). If we ever called with a routine question ( ex) time it takes for a cat to recover after a declaw) we were told that they were unsure. We had to specifically ask the staff if someone would find out (because they did not volunteer to find out). Twice after leaving from procedures we were not told if there should be a follow-up appointment, and had to call after returning home to find out we indeed need to set something up.
We had great experiences when the vet picked up the phone directly, but the upfront staff left a terrible impression. Because the care of our pet is in the hands of the vet, we will likely go back. But a change in staff may be worth looking into.

Dr Gardner is the best. Have been taking my dogs to her for years. She was there when I got them as puppies and was there for them at the end of their life. Just picked up my dog as I was out of town and never worried about him as I knew he was in the best of hands. I have recommended them to anyone who is looking for a great vet

Wasn't a huge fan of Dr. Goodrich and either were my animals. I almost left but then Dr. Garner started and she is amazing. My animals love her. With her, my dog doesn't need a muzzle when getting nails cut and my cat just purrs during visits. I can trust her judgement and opinions. I took my cat to a Vet that was closer to my home and their estimate for my cats surgery was expensive. Dr. Garner estimate was way less for the same if not better care.

Both Dr Mongan and Dr Gardner treat both pets and pet owners with such compassion. They are rescue friendly which is wonderful as well. I tend to be there very often as I have two of my own dogs and also do rescue foster care. They always know my pets and I by name. They always offer the best care and look out for preventive care as well. I recommend them to everyone!

As new pet owners we didn't have a clue about where to take our sick cat. We chose this place simply because it was down the street from our home. The Vet called multiple times after our cats initial treatment to check her progress. I don't know how their rates compare to others, but the bill seemed very reasonable for the services they provided. Next time we will know exactly where to go!

My family have rescued two dogs in the past 3 years and are first time dog owners! Before adopting our first dog a bichon named Chester I contacted Dr. Melissa Garner for more information on the bichon breed and rescue dogs. She was patient and kind and walked me through the entire process. Of course, Dr. Garner was a natural choice for a vet. She has always been there for Chester and her expertise as a vet as kept Chester healthy and happy. When we adopted Candy this past June we wanted to take her with us on a family vacation to Canada. Candy is a Coton De Tulear and had no paper work as she came from a puppy mill. Dr. Garner again to the rescue, even though she was on vacation and wasn't in the office to help she hooked us up with Dr. Mongan. She did Candy's check up and health certificate so we could take Candy out of the country. She made sure that we were ready to go on time! Come to find out that she also had gone on a fishing trip to a nearby resort of the one we were going to. I would recommend these two fine ladies to any pet owner! They are the BEST hands down!

We have taken our pets (three dogs) to Dr. Goodrich over the years and have always had excellent care. From a customer service standpoint, he was even willing to meet us after hours to provide comfort care and euthanasia when our first dog was dying following an automobile accident. In our experience, he has always been courteous and willing to go the extra mile to ensure great care.

FIRST- HE Should have NO stars, but a rating is required... WORST experience with a vet EVER!! I took my animals here because they needed ongoing treatment that was quite pricey...I called around and their prices were reasonable. Well, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. Charging low prices is the only way this jerk could stay in business!!! I had read reviews that the vet was a jerk, but I've dealt with people who have mental illness and I thought I can deal with this jerk if it would be cheaper, as long as he was good with my animals. He is more than a jerk, he is an as@#le. He's got major personality problems. He didn't care about my animals and even told me, ""Next time if you don't ask me anything, it'll be cheaper!"" in a disgusted tone. I went back for the maintenance meds and he was a complete jerk, beyond professional! By the time I left, he hadn't treated my animals and had me in tears and was still ""yelling"" at me! All this because I was ""wasting"" his time by asking questions!! I ended up walking out stating we would NEVER be back. He is a complete jerk. He has an anti-social personality and NO EMPATHY or COMPASSION. I will never again subject my pets to his ""care"", HA, or myself to his degradation!! Get a clue, Dr. Goodrich!!!

DO NOT GO TO THIS VET! My dog nearly lost his leg. Took my 11 month old dog to this vet for a broken leg and he just threw a cast on it. The X-ray showed that the bones were not even aligned. He said that the body has a miraculous way of healing itself. That is how he explainedd the bones would heal, basically by themselves. Took my animal to another vet for a second opinion and they said the bones would never heal with the way this vet treated his leg. He had to have surgery to fix his leg. When they removed the cast they also found that the cast was not properly padded and an ulcer had started to appear from the poor casting. Don't take your animal to this vet!!!
