Golden Mile Animal Clinic has the most caring staff, and doctors. What I like the most is that they only suggest necessary things that help your pet continue quality of life and health. If they suggest it- your pet needs it. They have been so good to our scared and terrified pets as well as our friendly and wild pets!  Each staff member that comes in contact with your Animal talks to them, pets them and answers all of your questions!  Our cats love the Staff and doctors at Golden Mile Animal Clinic even if they are a little scared to be outside their home.

I took my cookie dog there three weeks ago. They ran some blood work and the vet told me that cookie was healthy but was positive for lime disease but it was treatable. She also said there was part of her blood work that was low but she wasn't concerned because there machine was broken and all the pets they've tested with it had similar results. They charged me over 200 dollars. I called 2 weeks later and informed the person that answered that cookie wasn't doing very well. That person told me that lime disease can take the full month of treatment to work. That information is wrong. I called back on this past Monday and said again that cookie was still sick. The vet called back and told me that cookie's blood count was low that she needed a blood transfusion for me to take her to avets in Monroeville. I took her that afternoon. Avets did another blood test and found that cookie has cancer everywhere inside. Today is Wednesday January 24 2018. Cookie has an appointment with my local vet for euthinization. The outcome would be the same regardless of what golden mile did. I would not go back there ever. Read Less

If I could rate this Dr Showalter a 0 star I would. My GSD suffered from seizures and we medicated her for a year trying to make her life comfortable and happy. Unfortunately this didn't happen and after 22 hours of in and out seizing we made the decision to allow Sheba to cross the rainbow bridge. Showalter being the money making "dr" he is would not assist us, instead trying to over medicate our beautiful 3 year old girl. Where is her quality of life??? This decision broke my family's heart and we found a vet who was compassionate and assisted our baby in crossing that bridge to end the suffering she was living. Not a day goes by that I do not think of Sheba and how I will never recommend Showalter to anyone. Read Less

I have been taking my dogs/cats to golden mile animal clinic for over 20 years. They have helped to keep my dogs healthy and have been compassionate and helpful when one of my pets passed away. I have also always felt that their services are affordable, especially since I usually have 4 or more pets at a time. Read Less

Our poor Annie died when we brought her there. It was very sudden and upset us terribly. Everyone there was very compassionate and caring. They gave us as much time to be with her and offered very kind words. They helped us make decisions how to take care of Annie's body. Two days later a sympathy card came from them. I fine it hard to believe that people felt them uncaring. Read Less

Stay away from this greedy hate shop. We took our dog in because we felt he was trying to tell us that something was wrong. The man we saw whose last name I believe showalter was less than helpful, had no sympathy or compassion and was overall rude. We took him to another vet the next day and he was diagnosed by the wonderful staff at a Banfield hospital with lung cancer. We decided to end his suffering but this "Doctor" should be ashamed by his attitude and I will never recommend or refer anyone to this establishment. We had gone one time before for routine checks about a month prior and the vet we saw was only slightly better. There are far better places to go In the area like dr tucker or dr wiles. Read Less

My family has been going to this vet for years. The office staff is friendly and caring. Both doctors are incredibly thorough, knowledgeable and they take the time to explain exactly what is going on. I would highly recommend. Read Less

My brother recently went here to put his dog (family member of 13 years) down. His dog was suffering terribly and my brother had made the tough decision to end his dog's suffering. And this vet had zero compassion. Thankfully, he decided to leave and find someone else that will make this a more confortable experience for both himself and his dog. My question is, how do you decide to become a vet and don't consider people's feelings as well as make this a comfortable transition for the dog? Unfortunately the reality is there are miserable people in this world that get into service professions for the wrong rea$on$. My hope is that this vet reads this post and seriously does some self reflection and considers his actions and changes for the better. Or I hope that (if he doesn't read this) people never bring their pets to his establishment for services. He should be ashamed of how he treated this situation. Read Less

I took a 3 year old black lab in for a yearly checkup and shots, and thought I'd have his nails trimmed while I was there. After the shots, a "tech" came in to trim his nails. Being a large dog, he sat on the floor with his right rear leg tucked under him while this was going on. I asked the tech is we could help stand him or roll him over, she said no, even though he clearly wasn't enjoying it, he struggled throughout. After trimming the legs she could reach easily, she then proceeded to grab his right leg out from under him and yanked it up in the opposite direction to trim. The next day, he came up lame. Another trip to the same vet and I was told he had a torn ACL, and without $2-3000 surgery, there was little hope for him. During the second trip, he cried and carried on in the waiting room while we waited, something he'd never done before, maybe he was trying to tell us something.Anyway, I went back a few days later to ask the vet about the possibility that the injury had occurred that day.Immediately and without hesitation, I was barked at, and told that I could "shop that around all you want" and that I would not be successful. Huh? I hadn't even finished explaining my concerns when that came out. He then went on to explain that there was "no way" it could have happened during an office visit. That alone sounded suspicious, I mean, how can anyone be that sure, without even hearing me out?All I was looking for was a little sympathy and compassion, and to make sure the staff was made aware of it, just in case it did happen there, a very real possibility. I wasn't there to make accusations or threaten legal action, but that was clearly on their minds. It was obvious at that point that they'd been down that road before...At this point, it's a real possibility that I may have to put a three year old lab down because of this injury.Beware. Read Less
