I am GREATLY DISSPPOINTED and would not have expected this turn from an office we had trusted and loved for so many years! (We previously had been clients for about 15 Years.)I called to get my dogs vaccinations and refill their heartworm medicine. I was told of a recent change in office policy which required a physical exam for all dogs yearly before any shots or medicines would be prescribed. I complained that this seems onerous, and in the past we had loved Dr Ryan for her sensibility and for the ease we felt working with her. In this time of great uncertainty this new policy was so upsetting. She said they would make an exception, but going forward It would be required. I then made an appointment to go in to get my dogs vaccines that afternoon. I recieved a call less than half an hour later inviting me to find another vet, and my dog would not be able to have any refills or recieve his shots as planned that day. As my dog was due for the vaccines and needed his heartworm 2 days past, my pets health was in jeopardy by this action. Read Less

First time client-- when I called the staff was very friendly, and got me an appointment quickly, which is great. Sent two cats to get treated for URI. Had to pay $50 EACH to be seen and 'evaluated', even though they were previously diagnosed AND in the same appointment which took less than 20 minutes. Paid over $250 for each cat to get one shot each to clear up the URI. When I received the estimate they had also added in worming for each, even though I never asked for it, and my cats had already been wormed previously. If I hadn't caught the extraneous worming charge, it would be $56 more. Read Less

I would like to say thank you to the staff for seeing my Gizzy today. He wasn't feeling well so they had me to bring him in to be a work in. They told me to have him there at 12. They gave him fluids, antibiotics, done his bloodwork, examined him and cleaned his anal gland and I was checking out at 12:53. That was the quickest service ever. I would also like to say thank you to all of the staff, from the girls at the front desk to the Dr. They were all very, very nice and courteous. I was very pleased with the Dr. She was great with my baby. I could tell that she really loves animals and that means so much to me. If I could give y'all more stars I would. THANK Y'ALL SO MUCH!!

Dr. Ryan is an amazing staple of the Bedford Co. animal community. I have first hand seen not only her dedication to her private clients, but also to shelter pets! Riverside works so hard to provide compassionate care to every animal that comes through. Thank you Dr. Ryan and staff for being life savers with hearts of gold! Edit: I finally made the call and switched our personal animals over to RS. We came in today with three large breed dogs, and a 4 year old human. It was chaos, but it was our chaos, and the staff was wonderful working with us going between our two dogs and our current foster dog through FOBCAS. We love Dr. Ryan at FOBCAS and now I can say my family loves her as our personal vet too! Read Less

Once I would have giving this place a better review, but after what i went through back in December i cant. I brought My 5 year old male cat (who had been on prescription food since age 3 due to crystals), in because of him being in pain, he got an xray and it showed a bladder full of crystals and a stone in the kidneys. Was told She couldnt do anything to handle the stone but she would do surgery to clean out bladder. He was there a full week, was told at one point he chewed and pulled out his catheter (i know no one watches them when they stay overnight, but a E-collar should have prevented that i would think) Well was called to come in day after Christmas, i knew i may have to make that final decision on him, His fever didnt drop much, was told he didnt eat the entire week (that made me upset that i wasnt informed earlier) and was not told not much else. She was real busy and left the room, i sat in there with him holding him, confused, scared, sad, and seeing him full of staples, and never got the "I think its time", " He will get better" or any kind of consultation/talk. She sent in a young guy who i talked with awhile and knowing how much pain my cat would be in when that stone would go through his system i made the call. Later found out that young guy was not a tech or an assistant but the kennel worker. Week later when i came to pick up his body and pay bill, told receptionist im not coming back there anymore and was hurt by how i was treated,(never made a scene and no one else could hear me) She told Dr Ryan who was more concerned that i was mud slinging her reputation and said she thought we were on same page, She never told me anything or answered any questions that day so not sure how that she thought that. Finally when i got his body(receptionist just wanted to bring it out and hand him to me) , his box casket was big enough for a poodle. Never a im sorry for your loss from vet or as yet a sympathy card in the mail. Please no comments, i want this behind me and to get on over my loss. Read Less

I had the pleasure to meet Dr Ryan and her staff while taking animals back and forth for treatments and surgeries from the Bedford County Animal Shelter were I volunteer. The staff is outstanding, always putting the animal well being and comfort first, super friendly. They truly care about animal welfare and their support to help the local homeless animal is just remarkable. I already have a personal vet in Forest where I live, but I know that if anything happens to this practice, my pack will be transferred to Dr Ryan! Thank you for all you do, your unconditional support and willingness to help even the most "broken" animals! You rock! Read Less

Our experiences with Dr.Ryan and Riverside vet has been awesome. She is the most compassionate doctor I've ever met and I have known several. She definitely treats every animal as it were her own and spends the time with you to get to know you and trust that she genuinely cares about all animals. I wish i could say i have met 1/4 of people in my life that were a fraction as good hearted and genuine as this doctor is! I will never take any of my animals anywhere else. And anyone that has anything less than amazing to say about her well I'm too religious to speak of how much you should be disgraced. Also there is some pretty amazing staff working there ;) Not fair to only have 5 stars to rate! Read Less

Dr. Ryan is an amazing veterinarian. I rescued two Labrador puppies in September of 2016, and wasn€t sure what to do since these were my first dogs. I didn€t have a lot of money so I went to Dr. Ryan for help. She offered numerous options which included take home vaccines and a puppy pack which included helpful information and a sample of heartguard and nexguard. She was also running a promotional service for discounted neuters in September and discounted spays in October. I love how Dr. Ryan works with people and wants the best care for not just the animal but also the clients. Read Less

Roll over of several front desk staff, many poor changes seen/experienced over the last few years.. Disappointing to say the least. Sara worked the desk in the past and was absolutely wonderful to customers and so loving to pets. They are always pushing the sale of things not needed and are too rushed, not taking the time with you or pay attention to what you are asking. Boarded my ole girl last year and cried when I picked her up she smelled so bad, dirty and smelled strongly of urine. left message asking for dr Ryan to call me, and was told I was harrassing the front desk people....

I had the pleasure to meet Dr Ryan and her staff while taking animals back and forth for treatments and surgeries from the Bedford County Animal Shelter were I volunteer. The staff is outstanding, always putting the animal well being and comfort first, super friendly. They truly care about animal welfare and their support to help the local homeless animal is just remarkable. I already have a personal vet in Forest where I live, but I know that if anything happens to this practice, my pack will be transferred to Dr Ryan! Thank you for all you do, your unconditional support and willingness to help even the most "broken" animals! You rock! Read Less

Dr.Ryan and staff are awesome.Dr.Ryan is a very caring and compassionate person and it shows every time she is examining one of my pets.My Molly was so scared to let anyone touch her to give her a bath and cut her nails...Dr.Ryan goes in and talks and loves on Molly next thing you know Molly is letting them work on her.....I recently had to take one of my cats that had a hurt leg...The staff fit me in right away that evening and Dr.Ryan was able to treat Lucky and kept him overnight for observation.I have been going to Riverside now for 6 years and would never want anyone else to treat my animals but Dr.Ryan.....Thank you Riverside for the care you give not only to my pets but to the animals at the shelter....Your team is amazing and you should be proud of the work that you do and the accomplishments you have made.

Our experiences with Dr.Ryan and Riverside vet has been awesome. She is the most compassionate doctor I've ever met and I have known several. She definitely treats every animal as it were her own and spends the time with you to get to know you and trust that she genuinely cares about all animals. I wish i could say i have met 1/4 of people in my life that were a fraction as good hearted and genuine as this doctor is! I will never take any of my animals anywhere else. And anyone that has anything less than amazing to say about her well I'm too religious to speak of how much you should be disgraced. Also there is some pretty amazing staff working there ;) Not fair to only have 5 stars to rate! Read Less

Dr.Ryan is the most amazing veterinarian I've ever met! She takes so much time with each patient and client to make sure everyone is on the same page! She cares about EVERYONES fur babies as if they were her own! Not only is she there during business hours(8:30-6) but working late nights after 9 and sometimes 10 at night just to insure everyone's babies are properly taken care of. I will be going here for as long as I have my fur babies, because I would never trust another vet as much as I do Dr. Ryan!!! Read Less

Dr. Ryan is an amazing veterinarian. I rescued two Labrador puppies in September of 2016, and wasn€t sure what to do since these were my first dogs. I didn€t have a lot of money so I went to Dr. Ryan for help. She offered numerous options which included take home vaccines and a puppy pack which included helpful information and a sample of heartguard and nexguard. She was also running a promotional service for discounted neuters in September and discounted spays in October. I love how Dr. Ryan works with people and wants the best care for not just the animal but also the clients. Read Less

Roll over of several front desk staff, many poor changes seen/experienced over the last few years.. Disappointing to say the least. Sara worked the desk in the past and was absolutely wonderful to customers and so loving to pets. They are always pushing the sale of things not needed and are too rushed, not taking the time with you or pay attention to what you are asking. Boarded my ole girl last year and cried when I picked her up she smelled so bad, dirty and smelled strongly of urine. left message asking for dr Ryan to call me, and was told I was harrassing the front desk people.... Very disappointed will not return. Do not recommend. Read Less

She is always willing to offer her time if you need her to answer questions or help with concerns you may have for your pets. They are VERY reasonably priced.
