I take my pup here for doggy day care (and his vet needs as well) and the staff is amazing! My puppy was scared of everything when I first got him and I was nervous leaving him in a new place (but I hated leaving him alone all day since I work full time) but they made me extremely comfortable with my decision to take him there. They explained his daybto day and he gets SO EXCITED when we pull in the parking lot! It’s also very convenient because I work on Sir Tyler drive as well! I will definitely be recommending their services to all my fur baby Mom friends! Read Less

I will never go back to this animal hospital. They not only are the incredibly rude and entitled but they also money hungry. If you are looking for a local veterinary hospital, go to A Country Vet. Kind, personal, and professional. Read Less

Dr. Jaoblin was amazing with our puppy when we found out she had parvo. He was very concerned and loving. Two weeks later our older cat decided he needed some attention and Dr. Duffy came to the rescue with two snake bites! All the kids are live and well now! We found our fur-ever doctors! Read Less

We value the care the people at Atlantic give our spoiled dog. He also loves to go there. He is so excited to go to doggie day care, he practically jumps out of the car and into their arms. That is encouraging to us as he does not appreciate strangers very well. Read Less

I have two cats and one dog who are followed and treated at Atlantic Animal Hospital. They all receive thorough and thoughtful care! The exam rooms are spotless and the waiting area is nice; they even offer client treats. All the employees are nice and the vets are tops. M only concern is that my dog was placed on a special diet for allergies and, after following the directions on the package, she gained five pounds over six months--about 1/5 her regular body weight. I thought the issue was mostly due to her breed (beagle) as they tend to gain weight easily. When I expressed concern about her weight and food intake, a tech indicated they "don't recommend following the package instructions." While my dog's allergies are much better, I wish someone had cautioned me about the portion size for the special food as I now have a plump dog. Still, I'd never switch vets as I'm confident in the care my pets receive. Read Less

Every time I take my animals there, there's something wrong or miscommunicated to me. It's been one thing after another. First, my dog needed 2 additional vaccs to go to daycare and a negative fecal test. Fine, all good. What they didn't say is that he would need 3 fecal tests done at my expense, resulting in me taking several unnecessary trips. They clearly do not communicate with each other whatsoever, as I get different answers every time I go for the same questions. They have mischeduled me and charged me anyway and have charged me for services they performed which I didn't ask for. This most recent time they have lost my dog's personal belongings while at boarding and did not apologize or offer to compensate me. They seem to really not care about your time, money and energy at all. This place seems affordable on paper, but they charge you for every single little thing you may not even be aware of as they do not communicate well at all. I've given several chances and I have just had it. Read Less

I have been very pleased with Atlantic Animal Hospital. The staff is courteous, and we have always gotten an appointment when we needed it. They really gave us extra service when we needed a shot for our dog to enable us to board her so that we could attend a funeral in Pennsylvania. Dr. Joplin took great care of our cat, and encouraged us to call if there were any problems or concerns. He wanted to spare her the trauma of coming back in. The tech that worked with him was also wonderful. I have no complaints about this practice! Read Less

My pup wasn't feeling too hot all week and when it came to the morning I knew I had to call. The staff had no problem with trying to squeeze her in. Between having an immediate open appointment, drop off service, or a perfect window of time to walk in, they saw us the same day and we walked out satisfied without taking a toll on my pocket. We have been going there for 3 years now and I have to say I can't imagine anywhere else we would take our Ruby girl! Thank you to the Vets, Vet Techs, and all the important staff members that take extra strides to ensure the 4-legged family members are taken care of no matter what! Read Less

Don't lose your animal like I did. I took my cat, Hallie, here because my husband said wonderful things about this vet. I wasn't sold on my current vet, so why not. Well my first appt after a physical, I decided to get her teeth cleaned in Feb 2015. Up until this point, Hallie a 9 year old tabby had been perfectly healthy all her life. Hallie ended up flat lining on the table and they were able to resuscitate her. Happy to have her back, the vet gave me one, maybe two, antibiotics to take home in case of infection. A few months went by, Hallie slowly began to lose weight, vomit and not eat. I took her back to the vet in July and Hallie had lost a third of her weight. I paid for an ultrasound and blood work. The vet could not come to any conclusion besides late stage Lymphoma (which wouldn't make sense since it was a rapid decline) or IBD. Hallie was put on an anti-inflammatory to treat IBD. One year since her teeth cleaning, Hallie was on her death bed having lost half her initial weight and barely eating. To try anything, I suggested an antibiotic to the vet. Of course, after consenting to long extensive tests suggested by the vet, that still found nothing. The antibiotic turned things around for Hallie. She perked up and gained some weight back. This led me to believe Hallie had an infection and the vet never suggested such. I had to diagnose my own animal. I believe, Hallie had got an infection the day she went in to get her teeth cleaned. The antibiotic and anti-inflammatory bought Hallie time. The infection had already done the damage to her body for an entire year before getting treated. Hallie made it one more year until Feb 2017. She didn't have Lymphoma lasting 2 years with those symptoms plus an antibiotic wouldn't do anything for cancer. I believe, she had infection in her intestines and in the end couldn't eat anymore. Maybe, if the vet would have suggested an infection and antibiotic from the beginning (July 2015), she might still be here. I would not recommend this vet to anyone. Read Less

I've always known that this is a pricey practice but they do seem to love the animals. My bad review is about the daycare prices. My dog is right under 50 pounds...but when he doesn't play in daycare he gains weight. If he weighs 1 ounce over 50 pounds...he cost $8 more a day. Same dog, just ate too many milk bones this week. Its a vicious cycle. If he plays, he losses the extra but if life gets in the way and we cant get there, like holidays, he cost more. Because of this, and I spoke to the billing person there, we will be playing somewhere else, regrettably. It's a greedy policy. And greed looses customers. Read Less

Being new to NC, I chose Atlantic Animal Hospital from the online reviews. The reviews were spot on! Professional & caring team, clean facility, and no unnecessary procedures. Very glad to have found them. Read Less

Staff are super friendly and caring. Everybody is excited to see my pup when I bring him in. I bring my dog for both daycare and vet care; both services are great. They accommodate busy work schedules and prices are reasonable. Read Less

Very friendly staff. Made sure client and pet we comfortable. Clean area. They let each cat (on their own) out of kennel to run around. And they found our kitty has gingevitus, that no one else diagnosed. I highly recommend Atlantic animal hospitsl, and will definitely use again. Read Less

I can't thank these wonderful humans enough. Took such good care of my kitty, Millie, during a very scary time. The day after Christmas when cash was low and willing to work out a payment arrangement. Called to check in to make sure she was doing ok the next day. Thank you times a million for getting us in with no notice and saving my kitty!Read Less

I am from Elizabethtown, my regular vet is in Lumberton. Lumberton has experienced unreal flooding from hurricane Matthew. It has caused the entire town to shut down with literally no way in, nor out.Read Less

I love the staff but I have struggled trying to pay the bill. Over $800 for an exam, updated shots/vaccines, & flea meds for three months for two small dogs seems a bit much... :( I guess it was my own fault for waiting until the last minute for rabies vaccines so I took the place that could book them soonest. The same thing back home,100 miles away, is only around $200. Read Less

I would not recommend this place to anyone in the Wilmington area! Me and my girlfriend took our shorkie here for about 2 months. After which they informed us the would need to give the dog a flu vaccination. They informed me that it would be a simple 17 dollar charge. I agreed to 17 dollar charge as my dog was already there and I was at work. When I went to pick my dog up I was informed that we owed them over 100 dollars for the day of day care/flu vaccination. The day care cost is 20 dollars and vaccination was 17. The rest was a exam fee which we did not consent. We later found out they actually only weighed her and no exam was performed. Either way it was a vet tech and not even the Veternarian that did this. We NEVER consented to the additional charges nor were we informed. When I approached the vet tech at the time of check out she was a complete jerk and would not listen to myself as a customer that was concerned. My dog has not been back to this place. I also told the vet tech I would not pay the charges that I never consented to. There are plenty of other places in Wilmington that will treat you and your pet with the respect you deserve. Do yourself a favor and do not use this place to take your pet. Read Less

Atlantic Animal Hospital took the most amazing care of our 12 year old Golden Retriever, Banks. We were not even established clients yet they were super accommodating to our emergent need for immediate, highly specific healthcare. Their customer service was phenomenal and we were treated like family. Everything from the facility to the care Banks received was nothing short of excellent. We interacted with multiple receptionists, veterinary technicians, and veterinarians yet they all knew who I was and remembered Banks' name and who he was. All of our needs regarding care for our loved one were exceedingly fulfilled. We are extremely grateful for their service.Read Less

I love the whole staff at Atlantic, I took my dog Dre there his whole life. Everytime we walked through the door they knew his name and were so excited to see him. They really loved him, and grieved with us when he finally lost his battle with lymphoma. Dr. P is the best!!! She went above and beyond with Dre's treatment, I will always be grateful knowing that we did everything we could to save him. Read Less

I can't speak highly enough about Dr Michelle Rohrer and the entire staff at Atlantic. They are great vets/techs and take the time to explain your pets needs without unnecessary tests and extras that can quickly add up. Always friendly and prompt. Visits take about 1 hour from start to finish. Read Less

These people literally saved my dogs life. I had been taking my dog here for the past year and they always remembered both him (Levi) and I. When they say they treat your pets like family, they really do. I recently had to take him in for some emergency surgery and they did a phenomenal job. I don't feel like he would've made it somewhere else. They dedicated hours upon hours of time and attention that he really needed to make it. Even a few staff members I had not met yet were completely knowledgeable of who he was and his condition. I'd go in and say I was there to see Levi and they all knew who he was and his situation. They really love what they do. As a first time dog owner I always have a bunch of questions on things and they are always there to listen and help. I would recommend this place to everyone! They will definitely take phenomenal care of your pets! Read Less

I just moved to Wilmington 3 weeks ago, and prior to our move we lived in Raleigh where I worked at a couple animal hospitals either part time or full time as a technician for the last 8 years. So needless to say I was a little nervous about taking my dog somewhere I had never worked and to a vet I didn't know personally. My dog and I treat our fur baby just like a regular child and we had been talking about finding a new vet in the area but I just couldn't decide. Well this past weekend and into Monday he would throw up every time after he ate and so we knew we needed to get him checked out. My husband said that Atlantic Animal Hospital was recommended by several people at his work and after reading the reviews I decided it would be worth a try. I called to get an appt but they did not have anything that day but offered to let me drop him off, which I preferred not to do and so they set me up with an appointment for the next day but I asked them to call me if they had anything become available that day. I was very happy when they called me to say they had an appt open up that afternoon. When I got there everyone was very nice and the place was very clean. We had to wait but only about 5 minutes or so which was good. The technician and vet were also very nice and thorough and tried to make my dog more comfortable when he was scared. The only small negative I have is that they did not split the Famotidine pills that they sent us home with, which wouldn't be a problem if they were not so tiny and hard to split at home without a pill cutter. All in all a great visit and will be taking Walter there again for his needs and hope to see Dr. Karessa Schaffer again as she was great. Also saw lots of dogs playing outside in their doggie day care and they looked like they were having a blast and we are hoping we can get Walter set up for some play dates. Read Less

6 years ago Malaya started having some pretty serious health issues. After multiple/different vet visits a friend ref us to Michelle Rohr @alantic animal hospital. One visits and one look she knew that she was pretty sever diabetic. We where stunned. Years of shots special food and tons of other health issues Atlantic animal helped us through it all. Then we moved across the country to the land of tons of amazing vets and specialist.... For 5 years we found no one who could help Malaya and figure her issues out or how to deal with her. We even thought about sending her back to NC to live with my parents to be under there vet care so her quality of life could be better. Then petting her one night we found a huge mass. After multiple vet visits and ultrasounds we knew it had to come off. With lots of uncertainty from our San Diego vets we had no doubt in our minds knew we had to get her on a plane and back to NC. So 3 weeks later we did... She had the surgery it went great. Mass the size of a grapefruit on her liver. 5 days later she was back in SD. All was good and we started to get a lot of her health issues under control while being in constant contact with Laurie(Dr.Parish)and Michelle(Dr.Rohr). 1.5 years after surgery we moved back to NC back into there amazing care! Yesterday Malaya left us here in our arms next to one of the best vets ever! You 2 Drs with your gifts and your talented team gave us almost 3extra years with one VERY special amazing Dog! God bless you and your team and thank you so very much words can not even express my gratitude for you both!Read Less

The doctors and staff are amazing. It not only looks clean..... it smells clean in the building also. We have been going to Atlantic for about 5 years with Sadie our lady boxer who we just found out has kidney disease. We are laying out a plan for her health care and wouldn't trust anyone but Atlantic (Dr, Parrish). Dr. Parrish also treated our sly Clyde boxer with his treat of heart worms and cancer. We are forever grateful for their amazing bedside manners and expert care. I know they truly care about our pets.I recommend them to everyone I know with a fur family member.Read Less

My cat, Oregano has received professional and very kind care here. Dr. Schaffer and the vet techs we have dealt with are the best. The front desk staff has always been courteous and same day appointments have been available when needed. Dr. Schaffer is one of the best vets we have ever worked with and I am very glad we found her when we moved here. Read Less

Well that was entertaining....rushing my dog across town to Atlantic Animal Hospital  so that they could lock their doors promptly at 5 knowing I was on my way and got there at 5:04. I guess they have more money than time and they couldn't even be bothered to call me back and tell me that my dog or my money wasn't important enough to give me 4  minutes. I'm glad I don't operate that kind of business for my clients. Read Less
