The team at CHV go above and beyond for my dog’s health and well being. Both Dr. Kahuda, Dr. Blackwood, and every tech we have had the pleasure of meeting have been so friendly and warm towards myself and bear, even though bear has always been a little hesitant at the vets office. They seem to really take time to consider what is going on with Bear whether it is an annual check up or a sick visit. I have been to a few other vets in this area, but have yet to find the vets and techs with the bedside manner found here at CHV. Read Less

My husband and I were looking for a vet for our new dog that we just rescued from the Charleston Animal Society. We were recommended by the shelter and decided to look at some of the reviews before making our dogs first app. Our dog has a form of aggression with other dogs and wanted to make sure it was a low stress environment. We were impressed by how welcoming and compassionate the staff members were. I would highly recommend to anyone ! The other reviews are 100% accurate and if your reading this.. don't hesitate to make an appointment today ! Read Less

I have been taking my french bulldog to CHV for three years now and they have been incredible! The staff is extremely friendly, considerate, and knowledgeable. They want to get to know you and your animal and keep up with it all. They are considerate with needs and cost, they always ask if it’s alright to take tests/procedures and let you know the cost ahead of time. Additionally the facility is clean and welcoming! Highly recommend. Read Less

Dr. Blackwood always goes above and beyond for my dog! She was there for us every step of the way when he got very sick. I genuinely feel like the entire team cares so much about him which is incredibly comforting and assuring. I highly recommend these guys and can’t thank them enough for everything they’ve done for my boy. Read Less

We've known Dr. Kahuda for quite a long time and her care of our two dogs (one very young and the other very old) has been exceptional. She has always been honest, thorough, and an out-of-the box thinker who could successfully marry the health and well-being of our dogs with a balanced, thoughtful, and practical approach. We recently had to relocate to another town and thus the arduous task of searching for a new vet began. Even through that transition, Dr. Kahuda was there to guide us and support the health of Phoebe and Finn. She counseled us through issues and guided us in knowing the right questions to ask to successfully land in a new practice where we feel comfortable. After having lived many places and seen many vets, we can say she's second to none and are most humbly grateful for her caring and compassionate care that reached far beyond the doors of her practice.

I really wish I had the same positive experience as everyone else. Although the practice was nice and the people were friendly, the small amount of diagnostics done to figure out my cat's problem caused an incorrect diagnosis and he got worse before improving with a second opinion and correct medicine. When I originally brought up that he wasn't improving to the vet office, they were quick to refer me to a specialist which wasn't needed. I also never received the summary of my visit despite being told I would receive by e-mail. Disappointed because money is tight and having to see another vet for a simple issue was disheartening. Read Less

I have never been a fan of any of the vet's we brought our dogs to, as they tend to over charge and do not communicate well. Charleston Harbor Veterinarians is literally the best. We brought one of our dogs in for an issue that came up and had such a good experience that we brought the other two in over the next two weeks. They are completely transparent with costs and producers and they are totally reasonable prices! They are also very present and compassionate with the animals which I have never found anywhere else. Each time I have called I have been able to set up appointments for that day even when they were booked. This place is really great and I recommend this vet for everybody! Read Less

Can't say enough good things about this place. Dr K. rocks and the entire staff are friendly and professional. We are new to the area and love this place. We took our little love bug in for an persistent on-going issue. Dr K. is being so thoughtful about how to treat her and finally get this issue resolved. She analyzed previous vet visits, took into consideration that due to her age she is sensitive to treatments, consulted with other specialist when needed, etc, etc, etc - She has done it all! It has been way too long that we have had an intelligent, caring veterinarian!!! Bring your little one here and you will think the same! Read Less

Very friendly and always helpful. We moved to Charleston and decided to try them the facility is very clean and the staff is very friendly. Dr. Kahuda definitely cares about the animals. They are very accommodating when it comes to scheduling appointments.  Very affordable. We now bring both our dogs here Read Less

I moved to a new location and needed to look for a new veterinarian for my sweet JRT so, I turned to YELP!  Based SOLEY on all of the wonderful reviews, I decided to book him an appointment with Charleston Harbor!  Let's just say, said reviews did NOT let me down!  From the moment I called to make our first appointment I felt welcomed!  If you take the time to read through all of the WONDERFUL reviews, as I did, I am most certain you will be placing a 5 star review yourself!  I don't trust just anyone when it comes to the care and well being of my precious little fur baby!  He has been my little buddy since he was 7 weeks old and he will be turning 16 in 5 days!  If anything, I am more cautious now that he is a "senior" doggie than when he was just a little itty bitty baby!  Dr. Kahuda and her staff did not disappoint!  They were kind, caring, friendly, professional and we are looking forward to our next visit in February!They took the time to write down all of the vitamins and supplements I give my sweet boy and Dr. Kahuda even let me look through the little eye thingy to look into my sweet Sony's eye!  ALSO, they have his name written down as S-oh-ny...as to not confuse his name with "Sonny".  This is the first time EVER any vet has done this and well...it put a smile on my face and warmed my heart to see it!  My poor little guy has been called the wrong name so many times so, this special little touch meant (and means) a lot to me!  Kudos CHV team!  You guys are AWESOME, to say the least!P.S.  Sony loved all of the yummy treats and creamy peanut butter! Read Less

What an amazing experience! We are visiting the area for a few months and needed to have one of our dogs looked at for an on-going issue. I have to say, this was the nicest vet office that we have ever visited. A beautiful, clean environment that is designed to make both humans and animals comfortable. The staff was excellent as well and did everything to make our very nervous dog comfortable, they even offered her a little peanut butter to get her to come to them at first. Dr. Kahuda and her staff have gone above and beyond to help us determine what is going on and to fix it. We are very happy and will continue to use them throughout our stay in the area. Read Less

Charleston Harbor is like taking your pet to see a family friend. When we adopted our dog, we did some research about where to take him and we are so glad we found Charleston Harbor. We've had Dr. Kahuda each time we've gone and she remembers our dog each time and special things about him. She always takes the time to thoroughly explain what she's doing or looking for and what she's seeing. The assistants, particularly Molly and Jessie, are always very helpful and sweet to my wife and I as well as our dog. We've recommended Charleston Harbor to friends because we always feel treated like family. The pricing is incredibly reasonable and the quality of care is outstanding. Throughout, their focus is always on care and not on gouging you. Can't say enough about how outstanding they are. Our dog runs to the door every time because he's excited to see his friends at Charleston Harbor! Read Less

Recently moved to Charleston from New York with my two senior dogs. After doing some research I decided to give Charleston Harbor a shot as our new family vet practice. Coming from New York we are used to a very high standard of pet care. These guys more than exceeded what we had back home. Incredibly caring, patient, and generous with their time, everyone on staff is a true professional. Beautiful, immaculate facility that feels like a doggy spa more than a doctors office. We've had well visits, a poisoning scare, and a dental operation since we've been here and could not have asked for better care, compassion, transparency, and love towards our pups. 100% pros in every way. Thank you Dr. Kahuda and team!!! Read Less

We absolutely love these vets. They were wonderful with both our older pug (who got VERY nervous at all vets) and our new 1yr old rescue pup. The rooms are very comfortable, they offer you free water or coffee, and they get down on the floor with your dog if they aren't comfy on the table. We absolutely love Dr. Kahuda because she personally follows up with us the day after appointments by phone or email. Amazing service and prices aren't terrible! Read Less

My dog, Copper, and I absolutely love CHV! The staff is very friendly and welcoming while the facility is warm and homey. It's also very convenient for us as we can walk to the vet, but if the weather isn't nice there is free parking right on Line St. I am so pleased with the care they've provided for my sweet girl and would recommend CHV to anybody! Read Less

I love this vet office. Cute little snack station. Staff is super nice, and I feel like they actually care about what's best for my pet and I. They are realistic about costs and work with you to figure out what your best options are. Five stars fo sho. Read Less

We had a great experience here, even thought it was time for puppy shots. All staff members were extremely friendly and each of them took the time to get to know the Indy and throughly explain what his needs would be and how we could better care for such a little dog! Great people, great place, I will be telling everyone to take your pets here!Read Less

Great first vet trip for our pup, Indy. Everyone was very nice to us and and took a long time to explain everything and answer our questions. They made Indy feel comfortable and he loved everything but the shots. Bright clean facility. Glad to have picked such a great place! Read Less

We had to see our furry friend off to a better place this week. Thank you for your excellent care and helping us through our decision. You can really tell that your staff and doctor care about the emotions of the owners as much as you do our pets. Thank you so much for what you do. Read Less

Seriously, the best vet clinic anywhere. The care from the veterinarians and the staff is top notch. It's clear they love their job, and most importantly, love the animals they treat. My dog has received excellent care, while I received very thorough discharge instructions for my sick pup, and at an incredibly reasonable cost. The clinic is very comfortable and you feel like you're at home instead of in some sterile, cold building. Can't say enough good things about Dr. Blackwood and the rest of the team. Read Less

Lovely environment,nice service, and acceptable price. I just got my golden retriever and looking for a Vet clinic for a while. I took my dog to Banfield for his first check, however I do not like their service and environment at all. Then I visited several clinics by myself and searched online. Finally I found the Charleston Harbor Veterinarian, I took my puppy there for his vaccines today and I am super satisfied! The doctor and nurse are very friendly, knowledge, and helpful. I love them!!!By the way, even though they are located in the fancy downtown, their price cheaper than the Banfield(petsmart)!! Read Less

I absolutely love Charleston Harbor Vets!! Not only do they provide an amazing atmosphere (legit, this place is nicer than my own Doctor's office) that makes my sweet Jessie (and myself) feel comfortable, but they treat the pets that they see as if they were their own.  I have been taking my 10.5 year old golden retriever to see Dr. Kahuda for a year and a half now and can't imagine ever going elsewhere.  They provide convenient & flexible appointment times, a very high level of care and attention, and are incredibly friendly while doing so.  5+ stars to the entire staff at CHV!! Read Less

This place is awesome! Dr. Blackwood is thorough & calm and I liked that she spent some time connecting with Boone before starting the exam.  They gave him lots of treats :)Other pros: *lots of flexibility for scheduling*upfront about setting cost expectations*the facility is gorgeous.  It's nicer than my living room, and cleaner.  (But notice I haven't reviewed any cleaning companies, so that might just be me).  *Jesse, one of the vet techs, gave me her cell # when I asked about pet sitters!  *no harsh lighting or funky vet office smell*Dr & Staff all seemed to go above and beyond in being sensitive to pet and pet owner anxieties and fears.  We aren't dreading coming back!

Every single person at Charleston Harbor Vets is amazing. My dogs would stay there all day if they could. You can tell that they really love what they do. They're very reasonably priced and always try to save you money where they can. One of my favorite things is when they email or call after an appointment to make sure everything is going okay. Read Less

I love the fact that I know my fur babies will always see one of two doctors. The doctors and staff get to know me and my pets and I can tell they truly care about them. The relaxed atmosphere puts me and my pets at ease and makes going to the vet less stressful for all of us. In addition, everyone at CHV is very knowledgeable about diagnosing and treating my fur children. I highly recommend CHV. Read Less

I took my 8 week old great pyrenees puppy here for his shots and check up and they are great! Staff is friendly and the place is wonderful inside! She made some great suggestions for puppy training and books to read as well! My sister recommended them to me because she takes her siberian husky here and she loved them too! There is parking in the back and it is convenient for us to get to! I recommend it if you are looking for great care for you furry baby/babies! Read Less

CHV has a wonderful, caring team of professionals. They have helped me with my Lab, Lucy, my dear buddy for 15 years. They love her as much as I do! Highest recommendations if you want a team to care for your four legged family member and have a personal relationship with you, too. Read Less

I was apprehensive about finding a new vet after my move to Charleston, but I am so happy with CHV. They were incredibly sweet to my cat and followed up with a cute handwritten note after her first visit. The entire staff was so genuine and compassionate, I do not have enough great things to say about CHV. Read Less

I can't thank Dr. Kahuda enough for her compassion. She was so loving to my senior dog. She had the tough job of giving us devastating news but did so with such kindness and took the time to answer all of our questions. She even stayed late to perform and xray and go over it with us and set up an appointment for her with a specialist. She continued to follow up on my sweet girl over the next several days. The office staff is wonderful and the clinic is bright and comfortable. It feels more like you are at someone's home vs. a vet's office which I feel made my dog less nervous. I highly recommend Charleston Harbor Veterinarians. Read Less

Just as everyone has said, this is a great place with knowledgable, caring and dedicated staff! The rooms are bright and cheery and doesn't feel like your typical vet clinic that is often stressful for pets. Dr. Kahuda was so kind to our newly adopted pup Tyler and was very patient with his somewhat anxious and unpredictable behavior. She called to check on us the next day and when I called a couple days later to let her know I was a bit concerned about his lethargic behavior due to heartworm treatments, she asked me to stop by to check his temp and listen to his heart to make sure nothing was wrong. They didn't charge me a dime for this appt. which was nice since she did end up spending more time with him than expected. It's nice to know I can call them anytime I have a question and I won't be put on hold for 10 minutes or brushed off as is my experience with past veterinarians. Thanks CHV! Read Less

Truly had the best experience EVER at this Veterinarian! Dr. Christa Kahuda was amazing with my dog Atlas. She sat on the floor of our room with him, which looked more like a bed and breakfast than a doctor's office. She was kind and very reassuring with us. She even showed us what her technicians were looking at under a microscope that streamed through an i-pad. I created a Yelp account just to give this review. If your pet is as important to you as mine is, I promise you won't regret letting Charleston Harbor Veterinarians care for yours! Read Less

Highly recommend! The location is perfect for downtown residents, the building is warm, inviting, and comfortable for both animals and humans, and it is affordable. Staff is very responsive to both email and phone calls. They answered all questions I had before the scheduled meet and greet for Scout. Dr. Kahuda and Jordan are wonderful. They let Scout set the tone for the meet and greet and Dr. Kahuda asked all the right questions. They were able to schedule Scout's yearly exam later that same week. Scout can be a bit of an odd pup, and they embraced her quirky personality. I also took my 6 month old kitten, Jem, for his follow-up appointment after adopting him. They are equally as great with cats as they are with dogs. They even worked my sister's dog into the same appointment. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this practice and the staff. If you aren't 110% satisfied with the care your pets are receiving from their current vet, schedule an appointment at Charleston Harbor Veterinarians. Read Less

Such kind, sweet, and generous people! I had to take my 5 week old kitten here for an emergency visit at 8am and we were seen ASAP. I loved the energy in the place because it is not like a typical veterinary office. Would recommend to all of my friends with pets! Read Less

CHV has the most comfortable, relaxed vibe of any vet I've been to. It's more like taking your pet to a nice house for him/her to hang out with some nice people. Immediately Dr. Kahuda got on the floor with Winston to get to know him. There was no having to inform different techs of the problem and waiting before being able to see the doctor, just the techs and the doctor working together and with you from the getgo. There are no exam tables and exam rooms just feel like a normal side room. The staff clearly know and appreciate how to make people and animals comfortable and make vet visits as stress-free as possible. This is great for my dog that gets serious anxiety when being at a vet. Definitely recommend! Read Less

The entire team at CHV is very professional, helpful, and kind. I couldn't have chosen a better place to bring my puppy Kali. They identified what was bothering her right away, and also helped me change the tire I accidentally blew on the way there. Also, Kali had gotten car sick, and they even helped clean her carrier. I'm sure you can't find a vet's office that can compare. Thank you so much!Read Less

Just got back from taking my mt. Cur and her 10 2 week old puppies for their first visit to to vet. As always drs kahuda and Blackwood and her staff go over and beyond the care they provide for our "children". We have been with dr kahuda and dr Blackwood since they were in goose creek and came with when they opened their own practice. We wouldn't trust our dogs with anyone else, because we're not just customers were like family. Read Less

The best Veterinarians in Charleston!!! Everyone is so nice, they always make it an enjoyable experience for my dog and I. Prices are also reasonable, and there's never a wait or anything. They are very fast. And to top it off they sent me a thank you card when I first started there that the entire staff signed. They go the extra mile. I highly recommend Charleston Harbor Vets to all pet owners! Read Less

I love Charleston Harbor Vet!  They squeezed my boy Rocket in at short notice for an appointment to update his yearly vaccines and to check some eye funk he was having.  It was easy in, easy out. The staff was very nice and efficient.  The place is very homey and welcoming. Their hours of operation fit my schedule perfectly. And their pricing fit my wallet perfectly.  Overall, we had an outstanding first experience with Charleston Harbor Vet. I would highly recommend them to any of my downtown or James Island friends. Read Less

Just like the other reviews, this is the most friendly and welcoming vet office that I've ever visited!  Our cat hates car rides and vet visits, but the staff and office environment here make it much easier on us.  Very convenient location and has parking.  They are all extremely attentive and work hard to make pets and humans feel comfortable.  I appreciate their quick follow up and response times to questions and concerns, couldn't ask for more.  They also provide excellent visit follow up, and quick notification of test results.  They are there when you need them! Read Less

Feels like coming home...I walked into this lovely, warmly and beautifully decorated lobby in an old house, was greeted with a warm "Welcome" before I even closed the door and my very sick dog and I were put into an exam room without a minute of wait time.Even the exam rooms are decorated so that humans can feel like they are just hanging out in someone's house while having their pet checked out. Nice chairs, super clean, cute curtains and pictures and a big, pretty rug for my dog to lie down on.Now for the most important stuff: my 10 yr old greyhound was incredibly sick...stomach/bowel stuff, I'll spare you the details. She was extremely dehydrated, had lost nearly 5 pounds, not much interested in eating, and very lethargic.The vet tech came in (please forgive  me, I don't remember everyone's names or who did what when)...any way, she came in and got down on the floor, (big dog, can't lift up to an exam table), with Maggie to greet and comfort her first thing. Then she entered all the information about what was happening with her and called in Doctor Blackwood, who was there in a minute or so.She too got down on the floor with Maggie and talked to her and petted her and said comforting things to her. They did the entire exam in the room, including a blood draw and administering fluids. Never before has a vet or vet tech done everything in the exam room so I could be with my dog while they poked and pricked and prodded. After 40+ years of taking my pets to the doc, I have finally found someone who realizes the need for me to stay with them while they're in this scary place.Long story short, we ended up in the hospital for a couple days because she needed IV fluids and meds overnight. She benefitted greatly from that. We did a follow up visit this week with Dr. Blackwood and Maggie is nearly her old dog self...whew!! Bottom line, great doctors and techs who treat your animal like he or she is your child and comfort you and the animal from the moment you enter the office. "Office" is a misnomer, care and comfort center would be more apt. Read Less

My dog Clare has been a patient since the moment I heard about Charleston Harbor Vet. I'm so happy with Dr Kahuda, the only thing better would be if I could be a patient too. :) Everyone there is always so above & beyond kind/considerate, and so knowledgable. They make you feel like a close friend, not just a patient. Clare was rushed to their office today in what I thought was an emergency situation & Dr. Kahuda acted quickly & resolved things within seconds, even handed me a tissue for my tears of relief. Best Vet office EVER! Read Less

We love CHV & Dr. Kahuda! A few weeks ago we brought our three cats in for their annual check-up & shots. It was the the most reasonably priced visit I've ever had with three furballs! The cats enjoyed the "cat only" exam room, especially our cat who normally freaks during other vet visits. Dr. Kahuda was so flexible with his slight moodiness. Our other two were very calm & one was even purring during his shots (Dr. Kahuda is one of five people he isn't afraid to see). CHV is so worth the drive from Goose Creek; all three boys will be back next year! :) BTW- if you are on the fence about making an appointment, I suggest asking for a tour. The office layout & mindset of is the most owner and pet friendly I've ever seen... &I have seen several! Read Less

Had a dreaded vet appointment with Murphy this morning. I was stressed about the discomfort it would cause him, having to take my son (4) with me, and let's face it- the cost. I decided to try Charleston Harbor Veterinarians on Rutledge Ave. The office is beautiful and open- no closed doors where doggies get anxious and can't see who's coming in. The staff is incredibly friendly, and they didn't leave My son out of the process. Murphy was relaxed and cooperative. The checkout is done in the exam room, so you're not struggling in the waiting area. Both boys got a prize, and best of all, the pricing was on point. Can't say enough about this place and the positive experience we had. If you love your pets, you'll try it too. Read Less

CHV exceeded my expectations!!! All other vet clinics I have visited in the past pale in comparison to this awesomely convenient vet clinic located in downtown Charleston. It is evident that the CHV team seeks to transcend the traditional vet visit by ensuring clients and their pets are well taken care of. Right away, Dr. Kahuda and the CHV staff made me and my pets feel extremely comfortable -- almost like it was home. They have very large exam rooms with comfortable seating, complete with Dutch-style doors so you can see what is happening and know no one forgot about you like at other vet clinics. The whole clinic is open concept so you can truly see what is happening and feel good about the treatment of each and every pet. One of my favorite parts I learned about during my first visit is the pet drop-off program. If my dog or cat is sick, I can drop her off at CHV on my way to work and pick her up on the way home! During the exam, Dr. Kahuda was very thorough in explaining things to me and gave me excellent recommendations for the health and care of my pets. She was patient and very knowledgeable!I can't say enough about the wonderful experience my pets and I had at CHV. The entire staff made us all feel very welcomed and valued so much so that my pets and I look forward to going back. How often can you say that about a vet clinic?! Now that I've been to CHV, there's no where else I will ever take my pets! Read Less
