Everything was great. They squeezed me in even though I ran late, ran extra tests that were needed even though it meant staff had to stay after closing half an hour, and everyone, from Dr. Miller to the folks at the front desk was courteous, friendly, and professional, as well as being helpful. Dr. Miller called the next day with the test results (all's good - yea!). This is the 2nd cat I've brought to Tyson AH and I highly recommend it to anyone with an animal that needs care. Read Less

They did provide a life saving surgery when our vet couldn't fit us in... but the after care instructions were non existent. She came back with dried blood in her fur. My dog was under a lot of pain and they didn't prescribe the correct medication to make it at least bearable. I had to followup to get additional medicine. Now even though my dog hasn't bothered them get stitches are falling out of a sloppy close up job (they are due to be removed in a week). I'm very happy that they saved my dog but I am dissatisfied with all else. Two and a half stars and almost $2,000 later. Read Less

We absolutely love Tyson Animal Hospital! We have an indoor/outdoor cat who loves to roam our neighborhood and occasionally comes home with scratches and bites. We've had to make several impromptu visits to patch her up and Tyon's has always made the effort to fit us into their busy schedule. Additionally, all of the staff are very friendly and the vets are super knowledgeable and just all around great pet people. In a stressful situation, they do a great job putting us at ease which is a huge relief when it comes to the safety of our animals. We trust them 110% and feel very confident in recommending them to others! Read Less

The staff is wonderful. Very welcoming. Helpful and patient. My husband and I dropped off our Camero baby for her surgery. They assured us our camero will be fine. I was thrilled to see at least 3 office cats lounging around. Oreo, the sweetest cat, must’ve sensed how worried and anxious I am for my camero. She sat with me, purred and comforted me for a while. I left the office feeling much better, all thanks to Oreo . We can’t wait to get our camero back tomorrow. Read Less

Apart from this facility being completely run down, I would not trust this vets medical opinion nor would I trust her integrity. I had a terrible experience with Dr. Tyson and when I questioned her about the treatment she provided my cat she got extremely defensive and completely made up a story about my cat being unhealthy, aggressive, and difficult. All completely false statements.I have decided to take my pets elsewhere, hoping no one has to put down their beloved pet unexpectedly and then be met with a fabricated story line by this vet.

Earlier this week, we said goodbye to our 15 year old pug. He had been seen a week prior by Dr. Luke for his old man checkup but soon started declining a couple of days later due to old age.

The decision was not an easy one to make and I said goodbye to my little buddy. I was able to pick the pace as to which we proceeded and I was never rushed after the procedure. I picked up his ashes today and although she was busy, Dr. Luke took a couple of minutes to check in with me and see how we were doing. If we ever have another fur baby, we will definitely choose Tyson for their care. Thanks again! - Salem's family See More Read Less

Dr. Tyson is a skilled and compassionate veterinarian. She's built a practice staffed with warm, caring, and efficient personnel. I've never been made to feel rushed when at an office visit and in turn always receive thorough explanations of diagnoses and treatment plans. Phone calls are returned on the same day, unless one has been advised otherwise. Fees are fair, and she's worked with me to provide the best care for my dog that I can afford. I'm so pleased with Dr. Tyson, that even though I've moved out of the area, I continue to return for my pet's care. Most impressively, Dr. Tyson remains current in her veterinary medical education, cutting-edge surgical techniques, and the latest advances in medical treatment. They have a small retail area stocked with foods for special diets, leashes and collars, and they dispense medications common in veterinary care. Kenneling is available. Office hours are intended to be accommodating, and the outgoing after-hours phone message includes information for an emergency clinic if necessary. This practice is housed in a very unassuming little building that was formerly a home. While it could be said it might benefit from some updating and renovation, it's worn by the years of traffic that comes with caring for many, many beloved pets. The reception area is decorated with photos of patients accompanied by notes from grateful pet owners. Parking is limited. Read Less

I can't say enough wonderful things about this vet. They are 100% dedicated to their clients and go above & beyond to provide amazing customer service. We have 3 dogs & moved to this area about 7 months ago. We originally tried a vet near our home & had a horrible experience. Then we found Tyson and I am forever grateful we did. One of our senior pets had a terrible cough so we took her in. They took X-rays and did tests but were unable to fully identify the cause so they sent us to a referral hospital which I'm so glad they did. Long story short it turns out our dog has cancer. Dr. Luke has been so supportive through this process. She calls to follow up regularly and goes above & beyond to help is with any questions or support we might need. The entire staff is so helpful & goes above and beyond for their clients. Great customer service with very fair prices makes this vet one of the best I've ever experienced! Read Less

Hard to issue a review based on criteria outside of the care, but felt it needs to be said. We have decided to stop using Tyson for one primary reason...the physical condition of the facility. Maybe at one time it was a charming, re-purposed home that is now a clinic, but it has fallen into such a sorry state of disrepair that we're concerned how it reflects an the attention being paid to things INSIDE the clinic.Overgrown grass, shrubs and weeds, peeling paint, rusted and disconnected gutters, just generally ugly and dilapidated for a animal medical facility. This place almost looks like an abandoned, post housing crash foreclosure home. It is truly well below the standard I would expect for any place, much less one that I am entrusting to care for my pets. The standing water alone is a mosquito haven.At some point you begin wondering whats happening to cause a practice to devolve into such a condition, and we no longer felt comfortable walking in the front door. I certainly wouldn't for one second go to a (human) doctor if their office looked like this, so..... Dr. Tyson...do what it takes to overhaul your facility and I suspect you'll see more business...we just can't give you ours anymore until conditions improve dramatically. Read Less

Wow! I can't believe I've never reviewed my awesome vet, Dr. Donna (Tyson) Dishman! I have been bringing my two fur babies here since we moved to South Durham in 2008 and the entire crew at Tyson's have never failed to provide caring and affordable medical care. I came here initially on a recommendation and stayed because they are amazing. The tech staff is extremely friendly and helpful, even when they are busy (stressed) and I'm trying desperately to get my fat log of a dachshund to sit still on the scale and not chase the office kitty. They are also very sweet to my pups before/after they get shots and try to keep them calm. I like that they don't try to push services or medications on you. I've done routine exams/shots here as well as a dental cleaning for the weenie and just this week my mutt Casbah got a tick burrowed in that I couldn't get out. The staff got her right in, removed the tick, gave her some antibiotic, and a rabies shot she was due for and it was like $45 bucks. Not too bad. They do boarding here as well which I've never done, but I would not hesitate to leave my babies here. Read Less

Tyson Animal Hospital has been caring for my many pets for more than a decade. They've helped us through the good, the bad and the sad.

I am beyond delighted with the care and service I receive when I take my pets to Tyson's. Dr. Dishman is so genuine, caring and thorough.

I board my dog there and Molly wriggles with joy when we pull into the driveway--she loves Lynn more than she loves me ;-) An extra added bonus is that the fees for service at Tyson are very reasonable and I have not felt that any service suggested was to increase sales (and I've had that experience elsewhere). This is a solid business with exceptional people supporting it. I highly recommend Tyson to anyone who asks about vets in the area. Read Less

I highly recommend this hospital to anyone who wants to find a Vet that treats your animals as they deserve to be treated; with compassion and care! Dr. Dishman gladly opened her door to me and to my pooch, even though the clinic was totally booked on a super-busy Saturday! Dr. Dishman took her time and was extremely gentle with my dog, and was truly caring with how he and I felt. She treated him as gentle, as possible. The two assisting nurses were also extremely gentle and understanding towards my dog's feelings and genuinely sympathized with my worrisome nature, which made me feel better. The final bill was more than I expected after the conversation with the doctor on what needs to be done to help my dog. I don't mind paying extra $$, because the service was excellent, and it was truly worth it, however I just wished it was indicated to me how much it might cost, so I'm more aware of it and understand it better. I wasn't impressed with the receptionist as much as with the rest of the staff. Although polite and smiling, she wasn't that accommodating with the customer service. When I asked about the bill, she replied with a short response and impatient look. Maybe it wasn't her best day, maybe she was tired, so I'm going to ignore that. Again, Dr. Dishman is fantastic and I'm glad I found her! Read Less

We recently got a dog from an animal shelter and I wasn't sure how she would behave at an animal hospital since I hadn't taken her to a vet before. She had been through a lot lately and I wanted to be sure she had a positive experience, so I tried Tyson Animal Hospital because a friend takes her dogs there and loves it. I noticed the landscaping was pretty & welcoming which I think even made my dog happy because she smelled flowers and plants on the way in rather than the typical ""vet clinic"" scent. Inside, it looks so warm and friendly and really feels like you are at home - very cheery and inviting. The people that work there were also very friendly and professional. I'm not sure who needed the friendly and welcoming atmosphere the most - my dog or me. :-) The veterinarian & the technicians were very thorough with my dog's exam & took the time to answer all my questions. Most medical places these days seem to want to rush you out of there, but I never got that impression from them. They really seem to have a passion for what they do & have sincere compassion for the animals. So Refreshing! I was touched by the way they treated my dog with such love & care during the exam, even petting her & talking to her. She had an ear infection & had to get her ears cleaned out; I was amazed at how they were able to do this so thoroughly, while making my dog feel as comfortable as possible. My dog was very relaxed the whole time, and she acted as though she was getting a spa treatment rather than medical care. When I got her at the shelter she was shaking & terrified so I thought she would be terrified at the vet hospital, but she never shook once there. They made us all feel right at home. My dog's ears now look clean & I can tell her ears feel better. The cleaning and the ear medicine Dr. Dishman prescribed has really helped. I will gladly take her there again and would recommend it to anybody. Read Less

The decision was not an easy one to make and I said goodbye to my little buddy. I was able to pick the pace as to which we proceeded and I was never rushed after the procedure. I picked up his ashes today and although she was busy, Dr. Luke took a couple of minutes to check in with me and see how we were doing. If we ever have another fur baby, we will definitely choose Tyson for their care. Thanks again! - Salem's family See More Read Less

Dr. Tyson is a skilled and compassionate veterinarian. She's built a practice staffed with warm, caring, and efficient personnel. I've never been made to feel rushed when at an office visit and in turn always receive thorough explanations of diagnoses and treatment plans. Phone calls are returned on the same day, unless one has been advised otherwise. Fees are fair, and she's worked with me to provide the best care for my dog that I can afford. I'm so pleased with Dr. Tyson, that even though I've moved out of the area, I continue to return for my pet's care. Most impressively, Dr. Tyson remains current in her veterinary medical education, cutting-edge surgical techniques, and the latest advances in medical treatment. They have a small retail area stocked with foods for special diets, leashes and collars, and they dispense medications common in veterinary care. Kenneling is available. Office hours are intended to be accommodating, and the outgoing after-hours phone message includes information for an emergency clinic if necessary. This practice is housed in a very unassuming little building that was formerly a home. While it could be said it might benefit from some updating and renovation, it's worn by the years of traffic that comes with caring for many, many beloved pets. The reception area is decorated with photos of patients accompanied by notes from grateful pet owners. Parking is limited. Read Less

I can't say enough wonderful things about this vet. They are 100% dedicated to their clients and go above & beyond to provide amazing customer service. We have 3 dogs & moved to this area about 7 months ago. We originally tried a vet near our home & had a horrible experience. Then we found Tyson and I am forever grateful we did. One of our senior pets had a terrible cough so we took her in. They took X-rays and did tests but were unable to fully identify the cause so they sent us to a referral hospital which I'm so glad they did. Long story short it turns out our dog has cancer. Dr. Luke has been so supportive through this process. She calls to follow up regularly and goes above & beyond to help is with any questions or support we might need. The entire staff is so helpful & goes above and beyond for their clients. Great customer service with very fair prices makes this vet one of the best I've ever experienced! Read Less

Hard to issue a review based on criteria outside of the care, but felt it needs to be said. We have decided to stop using Tyson for one primary reason...the physical condition of the facility. Maybe at one time it was a charming, re-purposed home that is now a clinic, but it has fallen into such a sorry state of disrepair that we're concerned how it reflects an the attention being paid to things INSIDE the clinic.Overgrown grass, shrubs and weeds, peeling paint, rusted and disconnected gutters, just generally ugly and dilapidated for a animal medical facility. This place almost looks like an abandoned, post housing crash foreclosure home. It is truly well below the standard I would expect for any place, much less one that I am entrusting to care for my pets. The standing water alone is a mosquito haven.At some point you begin wondering whats happening to cause a practice to devolve into such a condition, and we no longer felt comfortable walking in the front door. I certainly wouldn't for one second go to a (human) doctor if their office looked like this, so..... Dr. Tyson...do what it takes to overhaul your facility and I suspect you'll see more business...we just can't give you ours anymore until conditions improve dramatically. Read Less

I have been bringing my two fur babies here since we moved to South Durham in 2008 and the entire crew at Tyson's have never failed to provide caring and affordable medical care.

The tech staff is extremely friendly and helpful, even when they are busy (stressed) and I'm trying desperately to get my fat log of a dachshund to sit still on the scale and not chase the office kitty. They are also very sweet to my pups before/after they get shots and try to keep them calm. I like that they don't try to push services or medications on you. I've done routine exams/shots here as well as a dental cleaning for the weenie and just this week my mutt Casbah got a tick burrowed in that I couldn't get out.

Let me say first, my dogs are not a patient of Tyson's, but I write this review based on a scary Saturday with a friend's Dalmation. 32, the dog, had an emergency when they were closed, and his owner was working. We were called and asked to go to the hospital, because they were talking euthanasia, and no one wanted 32 to be alone. We got there, and knocked when the door was locked, and were immediately let in to see him. Long story short, hecwas doing just fine, and the staff was so kind and compasionate. If I ever have a need to switch vets, it's my first choice to go! Read Less

I am beyond delighted with the care and service I receive when I take my pets to Tyson's. Dr. Dishman is so genuine, caring and thorough. She is also very respectful about an individual's pet care beliefs (i.e. indoor/outdoor cats vs. indoor only). She and her staff have helped me through sad times as well as the joyous ones. I board my dog there and Molly wriggles with joy when we pull into the driveway--she loves Lynn more than she loves me ;-) An extra added bonus is that the fees for service at Tyson are very reasonable and I have not felt that any service suggested was to increase sales (and I've had that experience elsewhere). This is a solid business with exceptional people supporting it. I highly recommend Tyson to anyone who asks about vets in the area. Read Less

I highly recommend this hospital to anyone who wants to find a Vet that treats your animals as they deserve to be treated; with compassion and care! Dr. Dishman gladly opened her door to me and to my pooch, even though the clinic was totally booked on a super-busy Saturday! Dr. Dishman took her time and was extremely gentle with my dog, and was truly caring with how he and I felt. She treated him as gentle, as possible. The two assisting nurses were also extremely gentle and understanding towards my dog's feelings and genuinely sympathized with my worrisome nature, which made me feel better. The final bill was more than I expected after the conversation with the doctor on what needs to be done to help my dog. I don't mind paying extra $$, because the service was excellent, and it was truly worth it, however I just wished it was indicated to me how much it might cost, so I'm more aware of it and understand it better. I wasn't impressed with the receptionist as much as with the rest of the staff. Although polite and smiling, she wasn't that accommodating with the customer service. When I asked about the bill, she replied with a short response and impatient look. Maybe it wasn't her best day, maybe she was tired, so I'm going to ignore that. Again, Dr. Dishman is fantastic and I'm glad I found her! Read Less

I started taking my dog to Dr. Dishman after trying other vets in the area. The other vets weren't bad, but my dog never seemed comfortable there. She loves going to Dr. Dishman however! The staff are always very friendly, and truly show that they care about your dog as an individual. They remember her quirks when she comes back. They'll help you get the occasional stubborn tick out. They are just fantastic, and I am really happy that my dog and I found this office. We've also had a great experience boarding her here. Read Less

Dr. Donna Dishman and her staff are the vet's vet! They have given my three ""girls"" superior, state of the art care with loving kindness at each visit. I am a transplant to the area from Cleveland, Ohio. Dr. Dishman was especially kind and welcoming to me and my dogs. She has gone above and beyond in her efforts to provide outstanding health and wellness care to them. She has been especially kind to me and recognized my relocation stress. She made herself available to me for all questions regarding the health and care of my dogs throughout my reolcation process. I can't recommend her enough. In fact, I pass her card out to anyone who asks me to recommend a vet. I am very grateful to have found her and her staff. Nancy Maybaum Apex, N.C. Read Less

I've been taking my dog to Dr. Dishman since I got her as a sick puppy 1 year ago. She and her staff have been polite, professional and a joy to do business with. They have been very helpful with odd phone calls (""My dog ate soap."") and have been able to accomodate any emergencies we have had immediately. My dog likes the vet so much that I decided to board her there when we went out of town because I knew she was familiar with all of the staff and she loves going there to visit her friends. Read Less

We recently got a dog from an animal shelter and I wasn't sure how she would behave at an animal hospital since I hadn't taken her to a vet before. She had been through a lot lately and I wanted to be sure she had a positive experience, so I tried Tyson Animal Hospital because a friend takes her dogs there and loves it. I noticed the landscaping was pretty & welcoming which I think even made my dog happy because she smelled flowers and plants on the way in rather than the typical ""vet clinic"" scent. Inside, it looks so warm and friendly and really feels like you are at home - very cheery and inviting. The people that work there were also very friendly and professional. I'm not sure who needed the friendly and welcoming atmosphere the most - my dog or me. :-) The veterinarian & the technicians were very thorough with my dog's exam & took the time to answer all my questions. Most medical places these days seem to want to rush you out of there, but I never got that impression from them. They really seem to have a passion for what they do & have sincere compassion for the animals. So Refreshing! I was touched by the way they treated my dog with such love & care during the exam, even petting her & talking to her. She had an ear infection & had to get her ears cleaned out; I was amazed at how they were able to do this so thoroughly, while making my dog feel as comfortable as possible. My dog was very relaxed the whole time, and she acted as though she was getting a spa treatment rather than medical care. When I got her at the shelter she was shaking & terrified so I thought she would be terrified at the vet hospital, but she never shook once there. They made us all feel right at home. My dog's ears now look clean & I can tell her ears feel better. The cleaning and the ear medicine Dr. Dishman prescribed has really helped. I will gladly take her there again and would recommend it to anybody. Read Less

Greenwood vet has been a lifesaver to my kitties on more than one occasion. The staff is very caring and attentive. The office is always spotless. I've had a few 'crisis' appointments and have never had a problem getting in right away. My cats are my children and I wouldn't trust them to anyone else! While Dr. Paula, the best Vet in the WORLD, is not seeing patients regularly, I feel just as confident in the rest of her staff as if she were seeing my babies personally! Read Less
