Been coming to NPAH for 20+ years for preventative care and for sick visits and orthopaedic care for our dogs through the years. Veterinarians, technicians, and front desk personnel all excellent - it's obvious that they all are animal lovers. Surgeons are top-notch - we've had cracked nails repaired, dental care, eye care, and major orthopaedic surgeries done through NPAH. They stress preventive care (immunizations, flee&tick, etc.) to keep your pet healthy and to avoid more expensive treatment down the road. Due to the quality, organized staff, you can see different vets and technicians for follow-up visits. Read Less

Best veterinary practice I've ever experienced! Front office, back office, vet techs, and veterinarians are friendly, compassionate, and competent. I've been a client for 18 years for my cats, and they are very cat friendly - always able to put stressed kitties at ease and treat them gently. I highly recommend them. Read Less

The doctors, technicians and staff here are amazing. I have very large guardian dogs that don't always do well with strangers and these folks make going to the vet a breeze. I highly recommend them. The doctors take time to really talk to you and explain everything and answer all your questions, and the care is excellent. They also listen well and are willing to work with you, not just go by a prescribed set of rules. The front desk staff are amazingly helpful and friendly, and the technicians take time to get to know the dogs to make sure they aren't frightened or nervous. I couldn't ask for a better place to take my four-legged children. Read Less

North Paw - PLEASE stop these mailings ! If you had cared enough, you would have followed up on our dog Dylan's cancer last June after your blunt terminal diagnosis. Thanks to the compassion and surgical expertise of ANOTHER veterinarian hospital, Dylan lived much longer.

We have had nothing but the best treatment for our cat at North Paw. The vets always take a lot of time with us and that is much appreciated. Recently one of the vet's returned my call at 8:30 PM in the evening, I was very impressed they would take time at that point in their day to call me back. I have nothing but great things to say about this hospital. We have moved since we first started going to the hospital and we are a bit further away now. We have talked about finding a vet closer to our home but we have received such great care that we have decided to keep going and its worth the drive for us.Read Less

Unfortunately today I had to put my 13 year-old cat to sleep today. I have to say throughout the process of taking in my sick cat, evaluating different treatment options and understanding our family's limitations the staff at North Paw was compassionate, informative and extremely helpful in making a very difficult decision. No pet owner wants to have to make life or death decisions for their pets, but being able to trust your veterinarian for honest advice and present you with all the options has been extremely valuable. I'd highly recommend North Paw and will be taking my other pets here as well. Read Less

Kaylee receives excellent care at North Paw. All of the staff treat her like family and it is obvious that they genuinely care for "my girl". Separate entrances and exam rooms for dogs and cats is beneficial. Exams are thorough and all of my questions are answered unhurriedly. The Paw Plan is a great deal - pay one annual fee for two wellness exams, two additional visits and immunizations annually, plus a discount on anything else. The receptionists who bookend our visit make it a pleasure as well :). Read Less

Inconsistent Communications by front-desk staff, Appalling kennel facilities, Sky-high prices, Long Wait times, Incompetent employees. It is with a sinking heart that my own neighborhood vet cares so little for the well-being of my dog and has no sense of urgency in recommending solutions to her care. Reasons for my URGENT APPEAL TO EVERYONE in Northern Durham County to NOT use this vet: 1) INCONSISTENT COMMUNICATIONS: Miscommunication of front desk and technical staff they charge you more for expedited services even though you are a loyal, paying and on time customer. They promise you service if you pay more but then do not provide the service. 2) UNCARING STAFF: They never learn your dog's name or gender. 3) UNKIND TECHNICIANS and VETS: They are not kind to you if you have a large dog. Techs and Doctors alike will criticize you if you have a hyper, high-energy dog. 4) INCOMPETENT FRONT DESK STAFF: If you are due a refund, the incompetent front desk staff will charge you and demand to see your bank statement because you have to prove it was not refunded. 5) APPALLING KENNEL. Dogs are not kept in an air-conditioned facility. It is dirty, grimy and not well-ventilated. No windows, hard concrete floor, filthy. Dogs are only let out twice a day!! 6) PREPARE TO WAIT ALL DAY OR SEVERAL DAYS DESPITE YOUR PET'S EMERGENCY SITUATIONS: Expect to wait a long time to see the vet. You will spend 30-40 mins congregating at the front desk (where it's unlikely you will even be greeted) then spend 20 with a technician who provides no insight, only takes notes until you have to wait again before you see a Vet. 7) OVER PRICED. You will actually save money and your sanity if you go straight to an Emergency Pet Hospital, instead of trying to make an appointment at NorthPaw and sit through the wait that will result 8) THEY LIE TO YOU. They will charge you more for expedited services then tell you, you were mistaken to believe them. Please do not support this clinic or the employees therein. It is upsetting when our pets are our children that we have to experience such uncaring, detached and duplicitous staff. Read Less

Kaylee receives excellent care at North Paw. All of the staff treat her like family and it is obvious that they genuinely care for "my girl". Separate entrances and exam rooms for dogs and cats is beneficial. Exams are thorough and all of my questions are answered unhurriedly. The Paw Plan is a great deal - pay one annual fee for two wellness exams, two additional visits and immunizations annually, plus a discount on anything else. The receptionists who bookend our visit make it a pleasure as well :). Read Less

Inconsistent Communications by front-desk staff, Appalling kennel facilities, Sky-high prices, Long Wait times, Incompetent employees. It is with a sinking heart that my own neighborhood vet cares so little for the well-being of my dog and has no sense of urgency in recommending solutions to her care. Reasons for my URGENT APPEAL TO EVERYONE in Northern Durham County to NOT use this vet: 1) INCONSISTENT COMMUNICATIONS: Miscommunication of front desk and technical staff they charge you more for expedited services even though you are a loyal, paying and on time customer. They promise you service if you pay more but then do not provide the service. 2) UNCARING STAFF: They never learn your dog's name or gender. 3) UNKIND TECHNICIANS and VETS: They are not kind to you if you have a large dog. Techs and Doctors alike will criticize you if you have a hyper, high-energy dog. 4) INCOMPETENT FRONT DESK STAFF: If you are due a refund, the incompetent front desk staff will charge you and demand to see your bank statement because you have to prove it was not refunded. 5) APPALLING KENNEL. Dogs are not kept in an air-conditioned facility. It is dirty, grimy and not well-ventilated. No windows, hard concrete floor, filthy. Dogs are only let out twice a day!! 6) PREPARE TO WAIT ALL DAY OR SEVERAL DAYS DESPITE YOUR PET'S EMERGENCY SITUATIONS: Expect to wait a long time to see the vet. You will spend 30-40 mins congregating at the front desk (where it's unlikely you will even be greeted) then spend 20 with a technician who provides no insight, only takes notes until you have to wait again before you see a Vet. 7) OVER PRICED. You will actually save money and your sanity if you go straight to an Emergency Pet Hospital, instead of trying to make an appointment at NorthPaw and sit through the wait that will result 8) THEY LIE TO YOU. They will charge you more for expedited services then tell you, you were mistaken to believe them. Please do not support this clinic or the employees therein. It is upsetting when our pets are our children that we have to experience such uncaring, detached and duplicitous staff. Read Less
