I've never trusted a vet office more than I trust lakeside! Both of my dogs have had surgery here, performed by Dr. West, and several dental cleanings, as well as many normal visits. We've always received great care in a timely manner. Read Less

Lakeside Animal Hospital is full of lovely ladies. The reception area is very spacious, which I think is great. Dr. Strong has continuously monitored my baby, Addy, and is helping us with her diabetic situation. Dr. Evans has also been involved with Addy's care. Dr. Strong and Dr. Evans will call me with results and provide me with detailed information and instructions. I'm so happy that I decided to take a chance when I changed veterinarians. I have never regretted my decision. The staff is super always super friendly. If I have a question that they don't know the answer to, they advise me that they forwarded my concern to the back. Inevitably, I receive a call from either Dr. Strong or Dr. Evans. Read Less

This is the main place we took our old dog too. Unfortunately, we had to have her put to sleep due to cancer but the staff there was really nice about it and gave us a nice wooden box with her remains and a lovely poem that made losing her a little more tolerable. Thank you, guys. Read Less

Love the people here at Lakeside. I needed my dog neutered as soon as possible, they got me an appointment for the next day. My dog was neutered & I was able to pick him up by noon. Brought him in again last week to have anal glands expressed, only paid $10 for the whole visit. Very impressed. Read Less

Will never utilize their services again! Very abrupt and non caring! Told me my dog had a malignant tumor and spoke of inability to operate or amputate in FRONT of my seven year old and fifteen year old daughters! Said my dog was in excruciating pain but couldn't be bothered with prescribing pain medication for him! My dog is 13 years old and we have given him 13 years of LOVE - we brought him here to board for five days and picked up a nightmare!!!! Beware!! Read Less

After 20+ years and many thousands of dollars, I have made my last visit to this establishment. Had an emergency this morning, called to let them know we were on the way, then arrived and we were told to have a seat and wait. I watched 3 routine appointments be taken back while my extremely sick, emergent dog sat in the waiting room. I had to express my frustrations in the presence of their other customers to get my dog assessed. I was told they were very busy and it might be a better idea if I took my pet to another vet. After all of the time and money I have invested as a customer here, I would expect better treatment during an emergency. Apparently they have expanded to the point that they are too busy to be concerned about losing their loyal customers. Please do yourself and your pets a favor and find a CARING vet office. It most certainly isn’t Lakeside. Read Less

I was referred here by a family friend. I feel really bad that I can't remember the name of the doctor that we saw! He was awesome! It was very apparent that he and the rest of the staff that was there that day truly cared about my family and our dog! Although our dog Sox didn't make it.... if I had it to do all over again I would still have come to Lakeside Animal Hospital with her! Thank you for taking care of Sox ❤ Read Less

I’m so frustrated and disappointed with this vet especially after seeing their ratings. The ladies up front were rude (they called my husband an idiot) and never got our bill right on the first try. We took our German Shepherd to Dr. West because he had a couple of sores between his toes and he determined that our dog Lucky needed surgery and a biopsy to ensure it wasn’t an autoimmune disease or something worse. It sounded serious so we agreed to it. He did the procedure and taped his paw (tape right on his skin) to make sure Lucky wouldn’t aggravate the stitches. Well, the tape irritated his skin and actually made the entire paw worse. Over $1000 later and a lot of pain to our poor dog, the sores came back two weeks after the surgery. We decided to take him to another vet who kindly told us we were taken advantage of and that it’s a fungus that needs a quick course of antibiotics and anti-fungal medicine. Sure enough, the sores started disappearing three days after seeing the new vet (Goose Creek Vet - I highly recommend them). I also called and asked about my other animals vaccines because I had a feeling they had vaccines coming up but the ladies up front assured me they were all up to date. Well it turns out our other dog was past due on 3 vaccines and her heart worm test (again I recommend Goose Creek Vet). We’ve never had such terrible service. Read Less

I have had a number of vets over the years in different cities and states.  Lakeside Animal Hospital though is top notch and very reasonable.  I had two emergency vet visits since moving back to Moncks Corner and on each visit my dog was rushed to the back.  I don't believe one of my dogs would still be alive if it wasn't for the quick reaction and knowledge of the team at Lakeside.  Highly recommend them to anyone looking for vet services.

Lakeside Animal Hospital has been a blessing for Barney (kitty) who is 8 yrs old. Since moving to this area in June 2016 Barney came down with a terrible skin condition that was treated as a food allergy. Since no improvement and skin breaking out with sores/losing hair fast it took some research. I want to thank Dr. Johnson who was able to diagnose his illness which is not common in cats and was able to act immediately. Since then Barney has been improving but will be on meds from now on. Thank you Dr. West and Dr. Strong who also have been treating Barney. Communication has been great and staff is awesome. I have 6 more kitty's that are seen there as well! I'm so happy to be near such an awesome Animal Hospital I trust! Read Less

Our dog Tebow was treated by Dr. Jones for an unknown disease starting 9/1/16. Dr. Jones really took time with us, trying to go over what was going on blood wise. He took great care of Tebow while he was hospitalized for 2 nights, even calling at 8pm for an update. Money was a major factor for us, and he was only charging us 1/2 price for most of the procedures done and even doing free ultrasounds. He was baffled, as was 3 other vets, as to what was going on with our beloved pet. We spent well around $1200.00 for this unknown disease and ultimately the death of our very loved friend. All in saying we paid a lot for no cure or even a diagnosis, but we were treated kindly and most importantly the Dr did what he was able for what he knew was going on. Thank you Dr. Jones. Read Less

i took my 10 year old/100lb lab in for walking and eating problems. it took them 3 hours to do this appointment by the way...they sent me home with meloxicam and said it was arthritus. i called a week later and said there was no improvement and she said i could bring her in to put her on a metabolic diet. at this point my dog could barely walk and didn't want to eat or drink and they knew this. i trusted them unfortunately at their word and three days later, my little girl lost use of her bodily functions and it broke my heart. her left leg swelled within 3 hours double its size and she started breathing eradicatly. it was sunday so i took her to the ER and she was put to sleep that afternoon. DONT take your best friend here. I lost mine too soon because I did. They can shove their metabolic diet where the sun don't shine... i read the reveiws on that too and am apalled that theyw ould even suggest it. negligence on their part cause me my best friend. or at least prolonged the suffering of my best friend when she could have rested in peace but instead she dies a drug out painful death.

I have a very large Lab they take time check him thoroughly during his exams. I also feel the Drs there really care. I have received calls after Baloo has had to be treated just to make sure he is doing ok. My medical drs don't call to check on me after a visit. They are #1 in my book.Read Less

I am sorry to read that some customers/patients have had such a long wait. My family has been going to Lakeside for 3 years now seeing Dr. Strong, and not once have we had to wait more than 15 minutes, even when I had to come in for an emergency. The staff has always been more than friendly and accommodating, and very calm with my animals. I've found the prices to be more than fair, you get compassionate and knowledgeable employees, and Doctors who seem to be very happy to see you and your pets, well, maybe mostly the pets :) Overall, I would recommend Lakeside to anyone who is after above par care for their animals.Read Less
