I brought my green cheek conure here and it was amazing! Dr. Riggs was very helpful and let us know exactly how to take better care of our bird, we were also there for a wing trim and the entire time everyone was calm and it all went smoothly, best bet ever! Read Less

Yesterday was my first experience with BVC, as my leopard gecko Mr.Mana was feeling under the weather. My poor Leo had an absolutely awful shed which left him with wounds on his tail, he would not eat and he was drinking a ton of water. I called another vet clinic which couldn’t get me in until next week, long story short I was recommended this as another option. They were able to get me in the next day! Which gave me a lot of relief! The clinic itself has a small waiting room and the secretary was extremely nice and welcoming! The rooms are spacious and are welcoming, the vet tech was probably the nicest person ever!. Dr.Riggs made my mom and I feel comfortable, even making us laugh since my Leo is on the pudgy side. He is extremely passionate and knowledgeable,he even went through what we should do moving forward, and even looking forward towards the future. After only a day on an anti-inflammatory and milk thistle I can report that he is now eating again!. If you have exotics I highly recommend this place, the prices are reasonable and staff is professional and nice. 10/10 will be bringing my exotics to BVH from now on! Read Less

I take my parrots to Dr. Riggs. I find he is very knowledgeable and competent. We drive an hour from our home to his clinic and feel lucky that we are within driving distance. His expertise is a rare find. As someone else mentioned, he calls personally to give me daily updates on my pets when they stay at the clinic. Also, the Vet Techs he has working there and the office lady are competent, thoughtful and kind. I have been to both the Barberton and Wadsworth locations and have had nothing but good experience with Dr Riggs and his team. Read Less

This is a great clinic, especially for exotics. Recently, my turtle had a cloacal prolapse, and I was terrified. The staff and the doctor were very friendly and compassionate. I was able to get an appointment the same day, too! I would definitely recommend this practice for anyone with a reptile exotic. They took very good care of my little Oscar, even on such short notice. Read Less

We take our birds to Dr. Riggs for care. One of our birds has an obsession with water and would drink 10 times the amount of his daily dosage. I felt comfortable leaving him with Dr. Riggs and his staff. Griffin was there for the weekend the first time around but we took him back a few months later for observation and more intense testing and he was there for a week. I feel we have a good handle on his problem now and if he needs further treatment we have a game plan. Dr. Riggs called everyday (him, not his staff or secretary) and gave me updates on Griff's diagnosis and plans for treatment along with the days tests results. I recommend him for anyone having birdie issues, he has done great with ours. After Griff came home he still calls and checks on him to be sure his treatment is working. Read Less

I LOVE the Barberton Exotic Vet Clinic! They are extremely knowledgable, helpful and very kind! I'm never worried about the care my two English Angora Rabbits will receive while they are there. I will always recommend their facility to anyone. They are the BEST! Read Less

I would highly suggest Barberton Veterinary Clinic and their other location in Wadsworth. The vet was extremely knowledgeable about my birds condition and was warm and loving towards her. I truly felt like she receives the best possible care there and they really do care about her well-being by calling and checking up on her. Read Less

Took my snake in for a tooth abcess. Doctor Bedore took care of it in not more than an hour, and I really feel like he got the best care possible. Will definitely be bringing all three of my snakes back from now on. First place I've felt was actually knowledgeable about exotics! Read Less

Okay, if you're really serious about bringing your pet to this clinic you need to read this carefully. I had a hard time deciding how to rate my experience with this vet for a number of reasons. But to sum this up, they received only 3 stars due to what I feel is over charging for minor services. Otherwise, when it came to the quality of care they provided for my pet and the friendliness of the staff, etc... I would give them a 5 star rating. Dr. Riggs is amazing and called me 2 to 3 times a week to give me updates on my pets progress and what direction the veterinary staff had chosen to take with his care. The facility itself is very clean and welcoming. However, I brought in my Russian Tortoises- a relatively maintenance free creature, to have a feeding tube installed due to a lack of appetite & inactivity. I'm well aware that the procedure to install a feeding tube is anything but simple and have no problem with the price I was charged for this. But when it comes to tube feeding (which is a once a day process), I was charged $20.00 a day for something that takes less than 4 minutes to do. And on one of those days, was charged $30.00 (Supplemental Hand Feeding) for some unknown reason. I could understand these prices had I brought in a vicious snake or a nasty tempered dog but a tortoises? Come on! They're harmless!!! I was also charged $20.00 a day for boarding & $8.00 for "Hospital UVB" - again I present the argument above. If it doesn't cost me $8.00 a day to have a UVB lamp at home, nor $20.00 a month to feed him- then why charge so much just because he required less than 5 minutes a day of your time?!?  I get that business need to make a profit but seriously- wtf!
