I live in Lewiston and purchased a low cost spay certificate from friends of animals about a year ago, back then, they had a couple of totally amazing girls at the front desk that were super knowledgeable and caring. Don't get me wrong the girls they have now are pleasant enough, but not the same. I received a phone call that my dog was due for an annual check up but her shots were not due until October. I was given the choice of doing both at the same time, or having the annual exam sooner. I asked if there was a price difference, and was told that the price would be the same regardless. $58.00 for the exam and what ever the shots would cost. I decided to do the annual exam sooner. I assumed for $58.00 I would get a thorough exam. My dog obviously has bad memories of the hospital because of her operation, and she was cowering and petrified and needed to be dragged in on a slip collar. The vet came in and we had a conversation about  her weight,  she had a quick check of her heart with her stethoscope, felt her body and I was charged $58.00. I was aggravated, but did not show it to the vet who in all honesty was nice to me. I asked if they could check her for ticks, and the vet said she would need to do this with an assistant in a separate room. I was told to wait in the waiting room, whilst I was waiting,( Which was about 2 minutes) I asked the receptionist if the vet would be coming back to talk with me as I had a couple more questions her response was, write them down on a piece of paper!! I was a little surprised by this and said Is the vet not coming back out ? The vet suddenly appeared but seemed rushed. I am not sure why I paid $58.00 I  had decided to stay with this hospital and make the drive from Lewiston even though I would be driving past multiple vets on the way. I have now changed my mind. I feel like I was totally ripped off. Read Less

Today was my first experience with them and it certainly will not be my last! They are WONDERFUL! After a previously bad experience with another vet, I took my cat her for a second opinion about some issues she was diagnosed with. Upon my arrival, the receptionist was very sweet and kind and put my cat at ease right from the get go. The other receptionist were very nice, and were very pleasant to talk to. The wait was minimal and the Vet Tech Chris was absolutely phenomenal!! She really knows what she is doing and she is terrific at her job. She kept my cat calm and was extremely gentle. Dr. Kerwin ( a fill-in doctor) was amazing as well. Very gentle, very kind, very thorough yet explained everything so that I would understand. She gave me options and she made sure that I knew everything I needed to know. I saw a huge difference in my cat this time than the last vet we went to. This place is simply wonderful! The office is beautiful and adorably decorated. You can tell they really love animals there! Their prices are great and I would recommend them to ANYONE! Thank you Killewald for taking such good care of my baby girl! We will be back! Read Less

I absolutely love Killewald Small Animal Hospital. They staff is amazing and their services are outstanding. Each of the employees has taken the time to get to know me personally, as well as my family whom I referred to them. They took amazing care of my baby girl Hilda when she had to have surgery, and were incredibly supportive when I had to put her down. Any time I need to stop in for something, they always ask how my animals and family are and make me feel comfortable and cared for. I can honestly say that they are the best veterinary office I have ever gone to, and I can't imagine ever going to another office. Thank you for everything you have done so far, Killewald, and thank you for all that you will do in the future! Read Less

Love this practice. I would travel far and wide to see Dr. Decker! The techs are all very professional and kind. My dog has been antsy and squirmy at a previous vet practice. At Killewald, he is calmer and my partner and I completely trust the techs and Dr. Decker to work with him. My cat is traditionally shy and spends her time hiding. At Killeward, she lets people pet her. Dr. Decker takes her time and explains everything in detail. The people she works with make sure we have everything we need. I highly recommend Killewald.

Peeved.The first few times I came here I've had a great experience, however my latest visit was also my last visit. My cat has been getting urinary infections every year around this time, and this year was no different.  I recently moved to Akron and wanted to keep going with this vet as they're always been extremely kind to me and my pets.  After calling the vet to get a quick appointment they got me in within 3 hours to look at her, great news!  Fast forward to yesterday with her post infection check up.  I heard my cat meowing angrily at the back (hear it all the time when my dog tries to lick her - oh man). Her results were inconclusive and they told me I'd have to come back in.  That wasn't a problem, I'm absolutely willing to put in 35+ minutes (each way) of driving for my cat.Like it was suggested, I had locked my cat in the bathroom for an hour before our drive to the vet so her urine would be full.  I get to the vet, wait around twenty minutes and get told her urine was empty - again.The vet tech who came out was EXTREMELY rude.  I can deal with ignorant employees, but when I'm explaining to her that I'm not simply driving across the street every day to get there and it's not really possible for me to keep making these long, gas guzzling journeys for nothing. She cuts me off.  Which is fine, hey, she obviously felt like that's A+ customer service.  But when I asked if I could leave my cat there for a couple hours, she looked down at her watch while I was talking as if my cat and I were an inconvenience.  THATS where I draw a line.  Why the ** am I going completely out of my way to take my cat to a vet office where an employee does not care about my pet? An employee who was HANDLING my cat and "checking" to make sure she was healthy?  I will never put her life and well being in the hands of an ignorant and patronizing employee who acted like we aren't worth her time.  I'm absolutely shocked and disgusted at the treatment we got, and it does not matter to me how friendly the receptionists or the vet was.  I refuse to let someone like that touch my pet.  Her life is worth more than a rough handling, rude as sh** technician, and I will be taking her and my pup to a new vet.  Unbelievable.

My husband and I recently adopted a kitten from the SPCA. We had been waiting forever to adopt since we lived in an apartment that didn't allow pets, but now that we own our house we knew it was time. So we adopted the cutest orange tabby furball there ever was. We got a free vet visit with the adoption so I took our fur baby Leopold here. My mother in law takes her two dogs and one cat here, so I was referred. Leopold was a good kitten and the staff was sweet and helpful. They make your pet feel at ease and will show you how to administer medicine or answer any questions. As a first time pet owner I had lots! They also demonstrated how to clip his kitty claws. I hope I will only need to bring little Leo for his yearly checkups, but I have confidence in the staff and like this vet office. Read Less

Ever since Bill Killewald retired they seem too interested in the money and too little about their clients. Furthermore their staff continuously is changing. Charge for post-operative care? Please

I absolutely love Killewald Small Animal Hospital. They staff is amazing and their services are outstanding. Each of the employees has taken the time to get to know me personally, as well as my family whom I referred to them. They took amazing care of my baby girl Hilda when she had to have surgery, and were incredibly supportive when I had to put her down. Any time I need to stop in for something, they always ask how my animals and family are and make me feel comfortable and cared for. I can honestly say that they are the best veterinary office I have ever gone to, and I can't imagine ever going to another office. Thank you for everything you have done so far, Killewald, and thank you for all that you will do in the future! Read Less

We took our new puppy Starla for her first Check up and we just love this place. The people are so nice and the facility is very clean and neat. They gave her the shots she needed and explained everything about them to us. Best of all they didn't pressure us into anything that was not necessary to up-charge our visit like our pervious vet. Prices are very reasonable and they even suggest ways to help with the cost of spading our puppy in the future!!! A++. We are very pleased with our new vet choice. Read Less

I'm a new puppy owner had to decide where I would bring my dog for treatment. There were several veterinarians in the area. I chose Killewald Small Animal Hospital because location price and reputation. After an initial emergency visit to Killewald, I have called several times for advice and information. Dr. Shannna Decker and support staff are wonderful kind caring and informative. They are extremely thorough in their examinations and directions on how to care for your animal afterwards. They are accessible and accommodating. Read Less

Love this practice. I would travel far and wide to see Dr. Decker! The techs are all very professional and kind. My dog has been antsy and squirmy at a previous vet practice. At Killewald, he is calmer and my partner and I completely trust the techs and Dr. Decker to work with him. My cat is traditionally shy and spends her time hiding. At Killeward, she lets people pet her. Dr. Decker takes her time and explains everything in detail. The people she works with make sure we have everything we need. I highly recommend Killewald.

My pets have been patients at Killewald's since they were babies. The staff is very friendly, helpful and LOVE LOVE LOVE animals. They are very accommodating, even when "mommy" messes up and arrives too early for an appointment. Oops. Strangely for pets, when I mention it's time to go see the vet, they get excited for the trip.

Peeved.The first few times I came here I've had a great experience, however my latest visit was also my last visit. My cat has been getting urinary infections every year around this time, and this year was no different.  I recently moved to Akron and wanted to keep going with this vet as they're always been extremely kind to me and my pets.  After calling the vet to get a quick appointment they got me in within 3 hours to look at her, great news!  Fast forward to yesterday with her post infection check up.  I heard my cat meowing angrily at the back (hear it all the time when my dog tries to lick her - oh man). Her results were inconclusive and they told me I'd have to come back in.  That wasn't a problem, I'm absolutely willing to put in 35+ minutes (each way) of driving for my cat.Like it was suggested, I had locked my cat in the bathroom for an hour before our drive to the vet so her urine would be full.  I get to the vet, wait around twenty minutes and get told her urine was empty - again.The vet tech who came out was EXTREMELY rude.  I can deal with ignorant employees, but when I'm explaining to her that I'm not simply driving across the street every day to get there and it's not really possible for me to keep making these long, gas guzzling journeys for nothing. She cuts me off.  Which is fine, hey, she obviously felt like that's A+ customer service.  But when I asked if I could leave my cat there for a couple hours, she looked down at her watch while I was talking as if my cat and I were an inconvenience.  THATS where I draw a line.  Why the ** am I going completely out of my way to take my cat to a vet office where an employee does not care about my pet? An employee who was HANDLING my cat and "checking" to make sure she was healthy?  I will never put her life and well being in the hands of an ignorant and patronizing employee who acted like we aren't worth her time.  I'm absolutely shocked and disgusted at the treatment we got, and it does not matter to me how friendly the receptionists or the vet was.  I refuse to let someone like that touch my pet.  Her life is worth more than a rough handling, rude as sh** technician, and I will be taking her and my pup to a new vet.  Unbelievable.

My husband and I recently adopted a kitten from the SPCA. We had been waiting forever to adopt since we lived in an apartment that didn't allow pets, but now that we own our house we knew it was time. So we adopted the cutest orange tabby furball there ever was. We got a free vet visit with the adoption so I took our fur baby Leopold here. My mother in law takes her two dogs and one cat here, so I was referred. Leopold was a good kitten and the staff was sweet and helpful. They make your pet feel at ease and will show you how to administer medicine or answer any questions. As a first time pet owner I had lots! They also demonstrated how to clip his kitty claws. I hope I will only need to bring little Leo for his yearly checkups, but I have confidence in the staff and like this vet office. Read Less
