Dr Cifranick and the staff at Animal Medical Center were extremely kind and gentle with our older Bichon. They worked us in their schedule and were generous with the time they spent observing and examining our dog. Thank you. Read Less

Dr Cifranick and his staff proved proved themselves very rude, incompetent. My wife left in tears after taking our Great Dane puppy, Larry in for a routine appointment. The Doctor told my wife (rudely and condescendingly) that our 3 month old 35 pound happy go lucky, outgoing, crazy puppy was underdeveloped, malnourished and not socialized. All of which are wrong. They told my wife "you can just leave the room because your dog isn't socialized and he'll do better with you away from him" like what? This puppy is beyond socialized and very well trained. The incompetent Doctor recommended getting our GREAT DANE PUPPY on puppy food... Now I am a former veterinary technician of 6 years and I have seen the results of that. I'd like my dog to not have hip dysplasia by age 3 and live past age 5. As for being underdeveloped? He is 3 months old and 35 pounds. PERFECTLY within the weight spectrum for a growing dane, actually a little on the higher end. Very sorry excuse for a Doctor of veterinary medicine... Read Less

I recently had a very sick Kitty...my Lucky Boy...he was a good good boy and Dr. Mark and the staff took such good care of him...he made it 6 months longer than he should have thanks to this place...will NEVER use another vet...Dr. Mark is it for me and my fur babies...YOUR THE BEST!!! Read Less

As a new member to the Beaufort community, I was nervous taking my pup Obi to a new veterinarian. Obi is 2 years old and has only ever been seen by one other vet at our previous home. After much research I found Animal Medical Center West online and was pleased to see such great reviews. Making an appointment online was quite convenient and easy to do. My visit to the clinic was a great experience. The environment was tidy, the staff was friendly & Dr. Cifranick was wonderful. Doctor came into the room and sat on floor to interact with Obi, I've never seen this done before and it was such a sight to see! I'm so happy I found this place and will be a returning customer. Thanks so much. Read Less

Yesterday was my first visit to this office (new location on Robert Smalls) and I couldn't be happier! I called in the morning and was able to make an appt THAT DAY. Cannot say enough good things about the staff they were incredibly kind and helpful. Dr. Cifranick is AMAZING, and patiently took the time to answer every question I had as did everyone else there. Love it here! Now if I could just find a doctor for myself that is this outstanding :-) Read Less

Medical Center West has been wonderful in every way possible with our little River. We just came cross country and I have come to known in past times that it can be difficult to find a new vet whom you enjoy being around and feel comfortable leaving your pet with. The staff at Center West are so warm and welcoming. We had to recently have our puppies dewclaws removed from his back legs and it was a 10 day heal with the cone on, but they healed so well within 7 days that they were able to remove the stitches early and we have had no trouble since. I highly recommend Dr. Cifranick and his staff at Medical Center West! Read Less

Dr C is the best. I was having a meltdown about my poor sick dog (of course on a Sunday afternoon), he met me at the office in just a few minutes and had Noggie treated and my nerves calmed quickly. Thank you for your compassion and calm. Read Less

As always the best service for your pet and their owner. The staff is incredible and the the doctor is the absolutely most knowledgeable around. That doesn't stop him from enjoying his job and treating patients with care and humor . I would go nowhere else Read Less

I have been there a couple times and the vet seemed pretty cold to me (as opposed to compassionate). I started crying because the cat needed to be put down and his response was, "You should toughen up instead of letting these things bother you." I have every right and desire to mourn the loss of an animal I loved, so this did not sit well with me. Read Less

Best staff and Drs of any animal facility I have been to. I have been coming here for 10 years and even with the volume of patients, they always take time with your pet explaining everything. If they say they will call back they do. I really can not say enough about this dedicated office. I worked in rescue for 8 years and became a CVA so I have seen many offices and none come close to the Animal Medical Center-Pamela Mutch Stevens Read Less

Everyday, I drive past The Animal Medical Center and call out to all those beautiful animals as they are out in their cage runs...I really feel that they hear me and the tone of their barking changes from wistful to a friendly "Hello, buddy!" I've never been inside and I live vicariously through those doggies since I don't own one at this time. Read Less

My furry friend was so nervous and not feeling well. We went to see Dr. Cifranick and he could immediately tell she was anxious and conducted the entire exam on the floor petting her. His staff also was on the floor with her giving her vaccinations. This was by far the best veterinarian we have ever seen and will most certainly be back. Keep it up! Read Less

The best! If there was a way to give more than 5 stars I would! Dr. Cifranick is one of the most kind, knowledgeable, compassionate and caring vets I have ever dealt with and AMAZING with my fur babies. This office is immaculate, the staff exceptionally friendly and polite, and they always make my pets feel at home. Kimberly and others on his staff were so attentive and wonderful during our rough time, and I cannot thank them enough. I highly recommend this practice! Read Less

Dr. Cifranick and his staff are genuinely really nice people. When our old dog, Rocky, was struggling they really took care of him and I couldn't have asked for more compassionate people to help him and us through such a rough time. Our dog loved the staff and felt completely at ease there. This is a great place to take your pets. Read Less

Nearly two weeks ago my regular vet clinic cancelled an appointment I had for my cat Lovey. Dr. Wreden and Dr. Damm saw him. When Dr. Wreden diagnosed him with advanced kidney failure and cancer, Dr. Damm put him out of his misery. She was simply wonderful. She has the best bedside manner. Read Less

TEN stars.....we cycled thru three vets since moving here in 1/15.  Dr. Cifranik and staff are awesome......he seems to have a "sense" about him that makes our pet seem comfortable when there.  He has a gift.  Truly.  Great care...immaculately clean facility.Also Cammy the groomer is AWESOME....she's the best. It took us FIVE lousy local groomers before we found her.  She's a gem !! Read Less

All the doctors here are wonderful! And the staff, as soon as you walk in are helpful and friendly. They have performed a couple big procedures on my dog, and I wouldn't think of taking her anywhere else. Read Less

I was sent to the Animal Medical Center from the Beaufort Courty Animal Shelter's manager because my service dog Ivy had gotten out and was hit by a car. I can truely say, that I have never been treated so good after making a mistake that could have cost me my dogs life. The entire staff was professional and caring . The way they handled my Ivy was like she was a piece of precious crystal . Even with my special circumstances , they took care of her needs. I give the whole staff five stars and 10 At-A-BOYZ! God Bless the whole crew! And Dr. Cifranick You Rock!!!!! Read Less

Dr. C is amazing!! My dog Is normally so anxious at the vet and she is so great with him. You can tell his love for animals and he truly enjoys his job. Staff is always friendly and so helpful. I would highly recommend animal medical center west.. Read Less

Dr Cifranick saw my girl (house cat, mixed breed) at 2000 at night and did EVERYTHING he could think of to help her after she started throwing up randomly. He didn't charge anything unreasonable and saw her for 2 follow ups to make sure we did her take home meds correctly and that she got better. He had a specialist consult on her X-rays to make sure everything was fine (no additional charge to me) and really made me feel better without knowing anything about us. We will definitely go back and there's no other vet or vet clinic for our little family! Read Less

I recently adopted a rescue puppy and took her to the vet for a check up and to address a few rashes. Dr. Cifranick was attentive, professional, and very informative. He took his time and answered all of my questions very respectfully. Dr. Cifranick was able to give me several treatment options/recommendations and advice for raising a new puppy. I was very pleased with the service and I'm looking forward to using Dr. Cifranick again in the future. Read Less

Everyone there is more than awesome, very caring, and with a senior (very senior) cat, I go see these fine folks almost as much for me as for my senior citizen, Simon. Simon would give 5 stars if they had a saline solution warmer...he's so thin that he practically gets hypothermic when he comes for fluids. Keep up the wonderful work (and put the fluids warmer on a wish list, please.) :-) Read Less

My wife and I have two Golden Retrievers, and we --and they-- are absolutely delighted with the responsiveness, courtesy, and professionalism that has been received from Dr. Doug Cifranick and his wonderful staff. Our experience has been such that there are no silly questions, no question is left unanswered, and each explanation is given in a patient, understandable, and medically comprehensive manner. All of this makes it clear that our dogs are at the right place and in the right hands. If you have animals, this is the place to go! Read Less

Normally I take my animals to another vet, but he was out of town this weekend when our 16 year old Norweigan Elkhound had an apparent stroke. My regular vet mentioned that ya'll are now seeing emergencies over the weekend and recommended that we call. I left a message and got a very quick call back from Dr. Dohm (I hope I am spelling her name correctly!) who then met me at your office ASAP. Charlie indeed had either a massive stroke or perhaps cancer--either way, he was not going to recover. Dr. Dohm and Milani (again, I hope I spelled her name correctly) were *incredibly* compassionate, kind and patient with my mother and I as we made the decision to humanely euthanize our sweet boy. He passed in my arms, with no pain and no noise. The fact that he was seen so promptly, and with so much love means more to me than words can say. It was a dark and rainy night, and I really did not want to have to drive to Charleston or Savannah. Thank you for seeing us, for not letting Charlie suffer for a minute longer than he had to, and for making a very painful experience as compassionate, kind and warm as possible. Dr. Dohm and Milani are amazing and I would recommend them to anyone seeking veterinary care for their pets.Read Less

They squeezed me in as a same-day appointment when my cat was in pain and my regular vet couldn't get me in for days. I was impressed with Dr. Damm and how thorough and patient she was. The vet tech was friendly and the front office staff was too, especially with my son. They seem to really enjoy working there. I plan to make them my vet for both my cats permanently! Read Less

These amazing people not only saved my oldest pug's life when we first moved here, they continue to give us amazing service through their loving and caring attitudes. I would recommend them over and over with no regrets! 2018 Edit: It's taken me a while to write this. I recently lost my youngest pug to colon cancer. But, the entire staff at AMC could not have been more helpful, kind and loving in his last year of life. They always made sure to find time to squeeze us in during one of his emergency blow-outs and worked hard with us to find alternative treatment when his only option was a life-threatening surgery. Their love and kindness really helped me to make it through the whole process. As I said before, I would over and over recommend the AMC to anyone who wants the best for their fur baby! Read Less
