Have been a loyal patient to them since we moved to SC. We went out of town and had our friends in Atlanta watching our pup, I forgot to get his heart worm and flea medication for him so I called 1800 petmeds just to get the mess to our friends house for that month so our dog wouldn’t have to risk getting fleas or make our friends take him to a vet. Tidewater would not approve the medication, said “technically” our dog isn’t their patient anymore because it had been so many months since he had a check up. I go in there every month, pick up and PAY for his medication and never once heard that he needed a check up but now that they aren’t benefiting from our money, they aren’t his vet. I’m highly disappointed with tidewater. I called and explained that this had nothing to do with them. It was an emergency, I called 2 times to check up on the status, was put on hold for 15 minutes and then Jill the receptionist tries to sale me on making my dog a follow up appointment when we get back from our trip. Umm no thanks. I’ll take my business Somewhere where it is appreciated. Read Less

Definitely the worst vet I've ever been to. Will never return. I have had very snarky techs. Had one tell me that I was using cat flea/tick prevention on my dog. Was extremely rude about it. The product (that was bought from the vet) was clearly for dogs. I needed to get a surgery for my senior dog and they keep asking me to come in to get in examed. They have seen him at least five times about it. Receptionist was extremely rude when we explain that the vet has already seen him about it multiple times. One time they put their prescription food in my bag and added it to the bill and when we never talked about it. They just want your money. There are much better vets!! Read Less

We have known Dr. Cara Daniel for over 4 years. Dr. Daniel and her full staff at Tidewater are absolutely fantastic. They are always kind, caring, accommodating and very knowledgeable. We have never had any problems with getting appointments and are very reasonably priced. Absolutely love the laser & acupuncture treatments. Thank you Dr. Daniel and all of Tidewater for taking such good care of our family! Read Less

Tidewater Vet is the best in Charleston. Our dog is very sweet, but nervous around vet offices after having two surgeries. And I cannot say enough good things about this vet. They are always so sweet, and speak softly to him and treat my pup very well even though he is pretty difficult. Highly highly recommend them!! Read Less

My dog is extremely sick. She needs antibiotics. She is limping and not eating. Her paw is swollen to twice its size. I called to make an appointment for an emergency visit and they said they couldn't see my dog for FOUR days! She will be dead by then. This, after I have paid them thousands of dollars to maintain my two dogs. The only thing they said they could do was have me drop her off in the morning and have her stay there, alone, until Monday when they could look at her. Really? She's a two year old very healthy Jack Russell. Who are these people? This is the most expensive vet I have ever been to, and they can't even find five minutes to see an emergency patient? I will never go back. If my dog dies while I try to find the attention for her that I thought I had, then there will be consequences. Read Less

I am very excited about our new vet, Dr. Daniels and her vet tec Michelle. They went over and above in terms of knowledge, service and follow up. Jill at the front desk was very friendly and accommodating. I got tons of great information in regards to my new puppy from Michelle. They handled my puppy very well. Her labs were done quickly in office. I will not hesitate to recommend them and hope they keep up the same level of service as I've seen on our first visit. Great practice! Read Less

I took my three pets (2 dogs, 1 cat) to be checked for ringworm—and specifically stated the purpose of my appointment at the time of booking. All pets were analyzed and 1 of the dogs had a suspicious legion that vet wanted to test further before administering meds. However, in order to do so, I was told that I would need to leave, purchase a cheap toothbrush and return with the toothbrush and dog so the vet could brush a sample of the area and then submit the toothbrush for lab testing. Since I didn’t have time for the aforementioned errand (and didn’t think it appropriate in the first place) the vet then said she would go to the drugstore and purchase a toothbrush for me, but I would need to wait an additional 20 minutes. When I again expressed my surprise / frustration with the process the vet informed me that ringworm is very rare and that’s why they don’t have the supplies in the office to test for it. Needless to say, I will never return to this clinic and would advise avoiding it if you want a professional veterinary experience. Read Less

I don't even know where to begin in describing how much I love EVERYONE at Tidewater Vet. I have three big dogs, two of which are seniors with a million problems. In the last year, I have spent more time at Tidewater than anyone could ever imagine, and every time I am met with friendly smiles, concerned staff trying to ease my worries, and the most excellent medical care in our area. I am so thankful to Dr. Daniel and her staff for always taking care of us and treating us with compassion. Jill, at the front desk, is such a welcome voice on the end of the line when I make appointments, and I am convinced Kelsey, one of the vet techs, loves my big boy as much as I do Every team member at Tidewater is fantastic! I just cannot say enough good things about everyone there and the care they provide my animals. Read Less

Tidewater Vet goes above and beyond when it comes to taking care of animals! I'm a foster mom who visits their location a good bit and they are SO loving with each pup I've brought in. When you call, you are always going to speak with someone extremely kind and knowledgable. I believe that's one of my favorite parts about this specific practice - they make you feel like their #1 priority at all times, because you are. Read Less

I had the pleasure of both being a client and then getting hired by this clinic. This is one of the most passionate and hard working group of people in the area. As a client, they were always willing to go the extra mile and took such great care of my dog from vaccines to sick appointments. As an employee I could not have been more proud to work with the team I did and would trust any one of the doctors and employees to help care for my pet! Read Less

The women vets and staff are caring and knowlegable. When Heidi and Feathers died within one year Dr Daniel called and wrote a caring thoughtful note. I have recommended them to several family and friends who want the best care for their furry family members. Read Less

I may be biased because this vet is just around the corner from our apartment, but, let's be honest, it's one of the reasons I chose them. Also, the folks who work here are very welcoming, it's a clean and updated space and everyone who works here has been very kind and caring to my grrrrls (two chihuahuas). I liked their online presence and when I stopped in person to scope them out, I was impressed. Both times I've taken my grrrrls in for checkups and nail trims they've done a great job. And they follow up a day or two later to make sure things are going well. Two thumbs up! Read Less

We have been taking our two Yorkies to Dr Cara Daniel for years. The entire office is super friendly, helpful, and responsive. Dr Daniel and any fill in vets have been extremely thorough and caring. We have an older rescue with physical and emotional problems so he needs special attention. Everyone is always attentive to his/our needs. We know our two boys are in good hands with this crew!

We had an emergency today with our one year old lab mix. We aren't patients of Tidewater, but they got us in right away. Right when we walked in the door, they took us to the back. We were pleasantly surprised by how fast everything happened and how they got the situation under control. We will now always go to Tidewater for check ups, etc from now on. Thank you so much!!!

I was very disappointed with this clinic. I have dealt with many veterinarians in my life and this is the first time I felt an animal doctor was more concerned about money than the welfare of the animal. I contacted a friend who is a teaching veterinarian at a major university about my pets treatment and he was very concerned about the integrity of this clinic. He said it sounds like they are lying to you. There are to many good vets around to take a chance with an iffy one. Keep looking, don't stop here. Read Less

Cannot say enough wonderful things about Tidewater. The staff & doctors are so amazing & caring. I am so grateful that I found them to care for my little man a couple of years ago. Thank you, Dr. Daniel & all of you for being awesome! Read Less

We have a 17 year old dog that we take here. Both vets and the staff are phenomenal. Our baby is always well taken care of. They always do a follow up call to see how he is doing. My own doctor never does that. You can't go wrong trusting them with your pets. Read Less

What a wonderful and caring place to take our fur babies! Dr. Daniel and her staff are the best making even the most difficult situations bearable. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our Hunley! Read Less

Did some checking around before deciding and then picked these folks to care for our new puppy. Nora and folks there were fantastic - they helped us understand some nuances of the dog that we were curious about and overall did a great job making my little girl feel like her new puppy was being watched by the best.

With "today's vets" they are more about up-selling the customer than the actual care of your pet. That is what brought me to Tidewater. We have a mix breed dog named Ko, who is 11 years old that suffers from epilepsy. We made an appointment the same day and were taken to the back as soon as we got there.They were extremely polite, professional, and courteous towards his needs. He doesn't like to get his nails clipped and it is world war 3 when we try it. They had him in the back for 5 minutes and they were done with his nails, which I thought was impossible. What I liked the most was when I told the doctor he suffers from epilepsy she didn't try to shove product down my throat (which every vet does when they hear your dog has seizures). She just informed me of potential alternatives and that was it. Lastly, they called 2 days later just to check on him and sent a handwritten card. Really nice to see a business that is getting back old school business. Read Less

Wonderful, competent people at all levels and Dr D is the best. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a vet that you can trust and respect. We moved here 18 months ago and we have been taking our three girls there right from the start.Read Less

My interaction with Tidewater was not for services ... just to purchase a bag of CET with HEX dental chews that were out of stock and back ordered at Teddy's veterinary practice In Park West.  The key, here, was the customer service factor knowing that my dog was neither a current, nor prospective patient.  To make sure the item was available, I called ahead to confirm that the item was in stock and advised that there were just three bags, remaining, with a back order.  When I asked to have one bag put aside until the following morning, April said, "Sure" then wanted to pull up my account screen to make sure my information was current ... only to be advised that my dog was not a patient of the practice.  She mentioned that she would be off the following day, but the bag of chews would be in 'the closet.'  I stopped by mid-morning the next day, and sure enough, the chews were waiting for me.  The young woman who assisted me was so cheery that when she asked if I wanted another bag as there were only two left on the shelf (and back ordered), I figured that I'd better stock up.  It's comforting to know there is a vet close by that sells all the products I need to maintain my precious boy's health.

From the receptionist, Jasmine, to the Vet Techs (April and Juliet) to the Vet, Dr. Daniel, our visit was exceptional. Jasmine was professional when I called to the make the appointment and continued to be respective in her greeting and relaying that we were there to the Vet techs. Juliet came out to my car to help get my two dogs into the office and April was able to quickly and efficiently trim our dogs nails (which we have difficulty doing at home). This was our first visit, and we were impressed before we even met Dr. Daniel. She had obviously looked at our dogs records from the previous vet prior to coming into the room because she was aware of one of our dogs having a blood disorder. We discussed shots, bloodwork and during her exam our older dog yelped in arthritic pain. Dr. Daniel was very apologetic but we knew she barely moved the dog's back leg so the dog must be more advanced in her discomfort than we even knew. After further discussion, we now have our elder dog on a daily dose of pain medication and it has helped tremendously. We cannot say enough good things about Dr. Daniel and her staff. They are top notch! Read Less

While my experience with Tidewater may in fact not be representative of their usual service (as they claim), I think you should know the gamble you're taking by going here. Over the course of almost a year, I took my two dogs to Tidewater and had consistently poor experiences. The very first visit was great, although Dr. Daniel wasn't there, the person filling in for her was nice, took time to sit and talk with me about both dogs, and I had a great experience. Every visit since then seems to be more and more disappointing. They never seemed to be able to schedule a regular appointment, only drop-off appointments. So for most of the year my dogs went there, I never even met Dr. Daniel. Around Christmas they did blood work on one of my dogs, and they said they would call in a day or two with results, but they never did call me. I had to ask them to get any results. Once Dr. Daniel spoke on the phone with me about one dog's anxiety. She was reluctant to give medicine and proposed instead having him work with a trainer to improve his quality of life without the anxiety. She said she would provide a list of trainers when I picked him up. She never did. Most recently I scheduled an appointment for one dog who was having eye problems. I was told it was scheduled for 9:40 on my day off. I go up there and find out they had mistakenly scheduled him for another drop off appointment instead, so once again, I couldn't meet with the vet. I left and called back to ask about taking my other dog in as well (because he was due for all of the same vaccines as his brother). At first they said no, and I reminded them I only needed to bring him in as well due to their scheduling error. My dogs are a bonded pair and it was unacceptable for them to spend all day apart because of the clinic's error. They finally agreed. They said they would call me to let me know how their checkups went and that I could pick them up later. After 5pm, I still had no call, so I called them. All was well, and I was told they had the same vaccines done and that one had some blood work done. They never asked me if I wanted them to do the blood work, they just did it. I would have said yes, if they'd asked, but I was surprised they performed a procedure without permission. When I returned to pick them up the front desk person wasn't helpful. She just dropped their leashes and returned to her desk to help someone else. It was chaotic trying to wrangle both dogs into their harness/leash from home, and in fact she had to go fetch one of them that had run off into the back somewhere. She also had failed to print the paperwork I had asked for on the phone. Upon arriving home I realized they were not given all the same vaccines, and I saw no mention of blood work on the itemized receipt. When they called to check up on them the next day I asked about these things. According to this person I spoke with they never actually did the blood work that I was told they did. So I asked them again to prepare the printed copies of all of the dog's chart so I could pick them up after work. When I went, the front desk person wasn't sure about the answers to my vaccine/blood work questions so she got Dr. Daniel to come speak with me in a room. Dr. Daniel first said they only did what each dog was due for according to their records. I asked her to show me where it said that because I knew they should be on the exact same schedule and therefore should get the exact same vaccines. She puzzled through it for a little while and finally admitted that she didn't know why they weren't given the same vaccines and she didn't know why someone told me they did blood work that they actually didn't do. She proposed I bring him back in on my next day off to get it corrected. I went back, they corrected all of the errors, and I asked Dr. Daniel if she was charging me for this. She said half price. I said I don't think that's good enough but not good enough seems par for the course here. She then smiled and walked out of the room. It took 5 trips and around $300 total to fix their errors.Read Less

My Yorkie became sick while we were on vacation and I took her to Tidewater. What a great experience we had. Dr. Daniel is so caring for her patients and their owners. The staff is awesome and the office is very clean.The next day we got a call from them to see how Abby was doing. I don't get that from my Vet!If I lived in Mt Pleasant I would use her regularly. Her compassion and knowledge is tops and I'm very picky about who sees my dog. I trust Dr. Daniel and take her advice.I wish we lived closer so I could use her. Read Less

Dr. Daniel is kind, compassionate and an overall excellent veterinarian. She recently supported us during the heartwrenching process of saying goodbye to our lab of 14 years. We are grateful that she helped us through that. We feel fortunate to have found her after moving to Mt. Pleasant, SC. Read Less

Wonderful staff! My boy, Shane is always nervous at the vet. They are very patient and kind to him every time. Plus, the prices are great and they've always been able to fit me in for last minute for appointments! I definitely recommend them! Read Less

My wife and I took all 4 of our dogs to a different, popular, vet downtown and I was shocked and appalled when they made a dog owner wait in the waiting room to put his dog down after it had been hit by a car. Unfortunately the dog never made it to a room and died in his owners arms while everyone watched. We had been hesitant to change vets because this is where we always had gone because the price was right. What was lacking was genuine care and love for the animals. We moved to Tidewater after watching the tragic event in the waiting room and haven't looked back since. It may be slightly more pricey but what you get it well worth the money. I feel like my dogs get better health care than I do now. Dr. Daniel and her staff truly care about our pets as if they are family. Wait times are great, staff is friendly, and your four-legged family members get the best treatment available.Read Less

This is the most caring, compassionate vet's office I have been to in a very long time. I started bringing my animals to Dr Daniels on a whim and now will not go anywhere else now! When they could not save my cat, they were so compassionate about his passing and it definitely was not about the money. They don't push unnecessary things either. Their prices are extremely reasonable to and they always fit me in if my animals need, which is extremely helpful especially since one of my is a senior dachshund. Please don't hesitate to take your animals there! You will not be disappointed! Read Less

My dog, Sailor, has been seeing Dr. Daniel since she opened the Seaside Farms office and I am extremely happy with the care he gets. Sailor has allergies and a bad knee that led to surgery so he is a frequent patient! Under Dr. Daniel's guidance, Sailor is now allergy med free and his beautiful coat is back. My happy dog at the vet this morning for a checkup. Sailor is only a little sad that he didn't get to see Sadie - his favorite vet tech! Read Less

I have been taking my yellow lab to Tidewater for about six months now, and Dr. Daniel is great.  Her staff is always polite, fast, and accomodating.  They offer extended hours , which is great for busy work weeks.My lab is twelve years old, and I have always been given an honest opinion regarding treatment options when something has come up, and it is never financially motivated.  I feel I can trust Dr. Daniel and her staff, and that goes a long way.  I always feel my dog's best interests are at the top of their priority list.
