I've brought my babies here since I moved to Smyrna years ago. Lightning Skye, my Husky/Malamute mix loved to come in. He thought it was a social visit. He got so much love from everyone. His buddy, Four, our black cat was docile enough we just carried him in. He knew he ruled over dogs anyway. I lost them both about 4 years ago. I still have a snauzer and a chihuahua, both getting up in their years. We also found brothers,black cats, that we named Trouble and Leo. We hoped to save money a while back and went to another office in town. Major, major mistake! My extremely beautiful and nervous cat had a breakdown there. They did not know how to handle a nervous cat. I later brought him to Dr. Duffy (hey, I had to! He was hurt!) and she has areas for "cats only". Pheromones are emitted into the air to help calm the cat. He did quite well for her. I never had a problem with Southern Vet. They still talk about my handsome boys, Lightning and Four. I'll never go back to that other place. It's not worth my babies health!Read Less

This vet is wonderful if you have a healthy pet. But, if they're sick, run as fast as you can away from this establishment. I have taken 3 pets there for years: 2 dogs, 1 cat, all elderly. When they experienced liver and kidney issues, the vets as well as techs said 'There's really nothing you can do. It just happens with age.' I had every imaginable blood test and trusted them. Then, I began reading online the many mainstream approaches vets take to remedy these issues and I was so disappointed NONE of these measures were ever mentioned at Southern Vet. I even asked the vet straight out about these treatments and she looked at me sideways. I tried a different vet as a "second opinion" and they immediately began antibiotics and other prescriptions to decrease ALT levels and even helped me modify a diet to address kidney disease. My pets are now doing great and their blood levels are normal. If you have a pet you adore, don't trust these people. The ladies who work up front are lovely, but the vets and techs are completely lazy when it comes to treating serious diseases. I've never written a review before and I'm only doing so in the hope to save other furbabies from what nearly happened to my own. Read Less
