Sounds like a great place! I’m thinking about going there because my leopard gecko may be egg bound. Would you be able to see her or are reptiles such as my leopard gecko unable to recieve treatment here? Read Less

I didn’t have a vet in town, until today. They went above and beyond to help me with my ferret. They have been so accommodating, and walking me through every thing to get her well again. The team here, are so passionate about there jobs, and it reflects in their care, and compassion. Read Less

When I took my exotic pet The sugar glider here it has taking over 2 hours I was hungry and did not supplie snacks Also 45 mins till I got the second form.It is not a good place to go if you have a sugar glider/exotic pet I do not recommend coming here. Read Less

Been going there for 30 years after trying other vets around town. They have always treated me and my animals with respect and care. I read in the comments about the area being unsafe but haven't seen it myself. And as far as the payment in the other review. They tell you the cost before the treatment and if it was more than i had at the time they worked with me to the benefit of my animal. And my dog enjoys going there if that means anything. :D Read Less

So wonderful with my cat! My cat is quite heavy and needs to lose weight. I've been actively working with him for months now with the help of Fairgrounds Animal Hospital. The first Vet I took him to at a completely different clinic barely examined him and then told me I should be charged with animal abuse. I was already so worried about my kitty that this almost broke me. The staff at Fairgrounds have been wonderful. They performed an extremely thorough exam and ran a complete series of blood tests. I was so relieved to find out my boy is in such excellent health despite his weight. I thank Fairgrounds Animal Hospital for kindly and compassionately caring for my cat and for not judging me in the process. Read Less

A year ago my Great Pyranese was ran over, both back legs were badly broke. Dr. Johnson and his staff worked tirelessly with my dog and myself to get her walking and using all 4 legs again. They are knowledgeable, kind and patient. Thank you Fairgrounds Animal Hospital. Read Less

My cat suddenly became very ill and had to be out to sleep. Everyone was so wonderful and sympathetic. I never once felt pressured about what the best choice for my furbaby was but I was informed of the choices we had. They cut a lock of fur and beautiful watercolor prints of his paws. I will be taking my other two cats there from now on. Read Less

I've been seeing doctor Johnson for my pet. Very competent, friendly and reasonable prices.Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for good service and prices.International traveling definitely hassle free. they will provide you with most the information you need, not to mentions to prepare your pet with the vaccines necessary. Read Less

They are friendly but it seems like all they want is money we took our 2 month old kitten in because she's latharhic and has trouble walking and they wanted almost 400$ to do all these tests and try mess they think might work sorry but I'm not buying my kitten mess when your don't even know what's wrong with her...When my house burnt down 6 yrs ago in feb. they were genuine and caring about our animals let us make payments and everything it's just not the same anymore Read Less

My poor 10 year old Chipoodle who is overweight fell off the table when the groomer walked away and had left the leash too long! ( I will never go near that place again and filed charges! ) . Anyway, I drove straight to the office and without having an appointment or having ever been there before they took us in immediately! All the blood vessels in my baby's eyes had burst and were dripping blood! They gave her a shot that reduced the swelling and kept us until they were sure the bleeding had stopped. Here's the amazing part! Dr. Cox charged us only regular check up fees and the medication! NO emergency charge! Read Less

Great place to take your animals, but for your own protection, best to avoid. The neighborhood is besieged with crime...the office had it's windows shot out at one point, and employees had their vehicles broken into. Gang shootings are common in this area. Not for the feint of heart...carry a firearm, or bring an armed escort. Read Less

My first visit to Fairgrounds was to get help for my cat Sequoia and I encountered a wonderful, caring staff. They welcomed me as an old friend and were attentive to my concerns. The veterinarian even called me twice after I got back home to check on Sequoia's status. What a relief to find a caring place to take my furbaby. Read Less

If you don't have a lot of money and your small dog has been in labor for 8 hours and nothing has happened yet, don't expect much help besides them telling you your dog is gonna die. Don't worry she didn't die and all her dogs were born just find. Thanks for all the help! Oh and thanks for just thinking I didn't care about my dog. I rescued her from people that kept getting her pregnant and continued to beat her daily and kick her in the stomach over and over again and throw her at the wall and the rare time they'd let her out of her cage they'd make sure if she even moved her life would be hell. So thanks for letting me know a responsible pet owner gets their dog fixed after insisting she was going to die and I couldn't make payments. She's safe now and as soon as she had the puppies I brought her in that you said were gonna die, I got her fixed. I'm glad you guys were generally concerned about the animal I saved and was trying to make sure she didn't die. Thanks for all the help. Read Less

These guys have been my cat's vet since day one. They're caring, nurturing, and supportive plus gentle with my girls. I know there are a ton of options in this city, but if you give Fairgrounds Animal Hospital a fair shake, you won't go wrong.Read Less

I was in need of a veternarian doctor and was not fimilar with the Reno, NV area. I called several places, but Jenny at Fairgrounds Animal Hospital sold me from the moment I called in to inquire. Her genuin care, kindness and professionalism was the reason I made my decision to choose their office. From Jenny at the front desk the wonderful doctor and all the staff, I can honestly say I have never been more impressed. You can tell that they are a happy staff and enjoy what they do, in fact, one of the staff said how much they loved working there!!! They all provided great service, comfort and care for me and my baby Rocky. Thank you guys for everything. Read Less

I'm very conflicted with this review, while I feel like everyone was very nice and did explain everything to me; but I can't shake the feeling that something is not right. I recently adopted/took possession of a 13 year old pit bull. Besides being a little "moley" and missing some teeth she is overall very happy and spry. About a week ago she began coughing, hacking and throwing up consistently. She still remained happy and eating so we let it run it's course. Three days ago explosive bowels movements occurred and I was so very worried. I called them Monday and they were able to get me in right away, on Tuesday. Thanks to Yelp I even had a free nail trim. Office staff was super nice, vet tech very friendly and the vet herself was very nice. My appointment was 3:45 and I didn't see the vet till 4:30. There was one other patient family when I got there getting ready to be dismissed. They worked out a treatment plan and presented it. Including X-rays and blood work it came to almost 700! Not a "here's what we recommend to start with" just "take it all". I opted in for bloodwork, heartworm test and medicine estimate of $100 that brought it to a total of around $350 to start with. Being very concerned about her, especially with stool rating at a 7 and filled with blood I took action. Approximately 20-25 minutes later I was told that everything looked good. They were going to prescribe some antibiotics, probiotics and a special diet. The total came to $464. I was very much in shell shock and of course I paid it. To further complicate the process I lost my debit card and had to use my son's trust account card and just felt very frazzled. When I asked why it changed so much from the estimate I was told it was the Clavamox totaling in at $110 itself! Why the vet said possibly amoxicillin and then switched to the more expense class of antibiotics, I wouldn't know. I was told really nothing to what they thought the reason for her bloody diarrhea or cough was, but to come back if this doesn't work. Yeah don't think I will be doing that. Very disappointed overall, just in the end of the process.I left there at 5:19pm. Felt like-very here you go, pay it. I also overheard the vet say to the tech in the back "you see that diploma that's mine and not yours". I don't know if that pertained to another story, animal or to the tech questioning her but that just bothered me. I usually walk away from my vet office with a good feeling, and I just felt shell shocked, lost as to what happened, lost into what was wrong with my dog and thinking that I need to find her another vet. I didn't really push and I think that's what went wrong. In relation to what they charged for blood work , I found later, is almost twice the amount of others vets in the area. Why she choose a $110 antibiotic instead of a less expensive one, I don't know. My dog is still hacking, but it was the first night without diarrhea.... so as I said before I am very conflicted. Although I do doubt that one dose of medicine fixed her overnight, more like whatever it was has passed. I definitely would not recommend without warning to ask LOTS of questions. I can say that I personally would not go back. I feel a little preyed on honestly. Read Less

Both Dr.'s Andrus and Johnson are absolutely amazing doctor's. They truly cxare and treat each client and their fur-baby as family. The staff is always friendly and helpful I've been going to them over 25+ years and I would recommend ANYONE and EVERYONE to go to this hospital for general Veterinarian medicine. Definitely and A+++ or 5/5 for rating here. <3 Read Less

I am overwhelmed with gratitude for Fairgrounds animal hospital. We are new to Reno and were very choosy in finding a vet..we have to min pins that both needed extensive work on thier mouth. we went to another vet in town and we just didn't feel right about them, when we found Dr. Johnson and his assistant they knew what the problems were right away and they really did care for our pets. The whole staff was great, they all seem to have a great love for animals. I just can't say enough about these doctors...We LOVE Fairgrounds Animal Hospital!!!!! we are so gratefull!! Read Less

I would recommend this business. The employees are caring and the Drs. are very professional. I've been frequenting this business for almost 10 years and have been treated very well. Recent renovations have improved the facility. The new lobby is spacious and welcoming and there are more exam rooms now. I have been very pleased with the level of service from Fairgrounds Animal Hospital. Read Less
