We were charged $23 to have them trim our puppies nails. I would have taken her to a groomer, where the charge is $5. But, she doesn't have all her shots, and the same clinic told me to keep her out of public spaces with other dogs until she's been fully vaccinated. When I inquired, I was told that they are a "clinic" and this isn't something they do. She is a puppy. I thought I could trust them to take care of her and not take advantage of us in the process. 3 other vet clinics told me they do not charge for initial puppy nail trims while they wait to be vaccinated. We will be looking for a new vet. Read Less

Wonderful care for our dogs from all of the Dr’s we have seen and what made our final decision to continue our care here instead of our previous vet was the front desk customer service.

My best friend and driving partner Max broke a front tooth Sunday and needed to see a Vet... Alder Creek got my buddy in the next morning. Max typically hates going to the Vet's like I'm sure most pets do, but Vet did really good with Max, I could tell she was one who loved animal's more than the $. That's the best kind of Vet there is. They were really gentle with Max and got him fixed up in no.time and now he's his happy self again. Thanks so very much Doc.. Oh....and the cost was surprisingly affordable. Thanks again for everything... Alder Creek gets 2👍👍 from Max and Christopher 🐶 😃 Read Less

Called about pricing and was told a way lower amount on the phone. Watch for the extra fees. I'm over 200.00 into vaccinations and exams on a kitten that has yet to be neutered. I called and asked what the cost for fixing and shots before his first visit. I was not told of the additional charges or tests. So if your thinking of getting you kitten all his shots and fixed be prepared for over 300.00 all said and done. Read Less

I hate to write a negative review because I like the doctors here. But in April there was a misunderstanding and they murdered my kittens while inside the womb of our cat. We took our cat in for a strange cough. Dr said our cat was pregnant and due in a week which was a surprise. We said "oh, we were going to get spayed." Dr replied "we can still spay her." Brought the cat in to get spayed and was never told they would end the lives of the unborn kittens. I'm not a vet and I don't understand the anatomy of a cat or what "spaying an animal entails. Point being a came in the next day and they charged me over 300 dollars for the procedure and abortion of the kittens that were die any day now. I received a heart felt apology which I appreciated but they want me to pay for the procedure. I'm not paying for a procedure I didn't authorize and that wasn't explained to me of even warned about. I'll be taking them to small claims court to avoid paying for the murder of my kittens Read Less

We are new to the area and needed to establish veterinary care for our 'doodle and Bernese Mtn Dog. We took the Bernie in first, since he was kinda whiny. They were able to schedule a new patient visit and evaluation within 48 hours of our call. The staff was very nice and experienced. The clinic was a little off the beaten path, but that was good--just in case there was an escaped patient (no busy traffic to deal with). We saw Dr. Smith, and she was very pleasant and quite animated. Very personable, and you could tell she likes big dogs. She spent about 45 minutes with us and Cooper, and told us all about the local environment and what to look out for and what not to worry about. Oh, and their clinic looks brand new and definitely top-shelf. The grounds were also very well maintained--there was even a water-feature for Cooper to walk in while outside :) Prices were about average, but I think you're getting a lot for what you pay for. No unnecessary tests, drugs, etc. Overall, we were very happy with the care and would recommend this place to our friends! Read Less

I can't begin to express our appreciation for the staff at Alder Creek Vet. Over the years we have seen Dr. Tegarden, Dr. Haggarty, and Dr. White for everything from routine appts for immunizations and temporary illness, to an emergency cesarean and resuscitation of pups, to the sadness & pain of our pets end of life. They have always been thorough in their assessments and treatment, kind, compassionate and reasonable in their approach to treatments, laying out options and explaining them, and not judging our decisions. They are all great!! On 2 different occasions they have waited after hours to provide care for my pet and involved our entire family in the birth of pups by cesarean and most recently in having to put down our 11 yr old family member. Dr. White is extremely patient, empathetic and so kind. She waited after hours while we went home and got the kids so they could spend some time with our dog, say goodbye and patiently walked us through the whole process of putting our dog to sleep. She was asking the kids about their memories, and made a really sad time as good as it could be. Thank you!! I find their prices to be extremely reasonable especially in comparison to other clinics. I've been their a lot and occasionally may wait 15min but usually not and honestly, their worth the wait! Read Less

I arrived 5 minutes early for my 4:40pm appointment. After waiting 20 minutes, I asked how much longer i would have to wait. The receptionist said she didn't know for sure cause there were others ahead of me. So I thought about my options: 1. sit there and wait indefinitely to see the doctor, even tho i had a solid (i thought) appointment. 2. Re-schedule and maybe go thru the whole long wait all over again, or 3. just walk away. I chose the last option. It appears that this clinic is overbooking and not able to keep up with the demand, or is just unable to make sense out of the whole appointment concept. Simply said, if you make appointments for people, please have the courtesy to honor them (within a reasonable time ok?) I don't think that is an unreasonable request. Read Less

Dr. Teagarden is our primary and preferred Veterinarian. She's absolutely wonderful and our dogs love her. She guided us through the journey of having a dog with lymphoma, which eventually led to him being put down. Dr. T's compassion during the whole ordeal made dealing with the experience much less painful (although still devastating.) However, we've also been seen by Dr. Haggerty, Dr. White and Dr. Meltzer and wouldn't hesitate to be seen by one of them should Dr. Teagarden be unavailable. The facility is modern and very nice. The front desk staff and assistants are also excellent. Very grateful to have this clinic so close to home.Read Less

Dr. Tegarden is the best! She continually gives expert care and genuine love to my diabetic cat, Merlin. She has taught me to manage his home care well, returns my calls when I have questions, etc. The rest of the staff is great as well, anyways friendly and competent. Thanks all, for your help today. I'll continue to drive out to BG to have you care for us! Read Less

We are new to the area and needed to establish veterinary care for our 'doodle and Bernese Mtn Dog. We took the Bernie in first, since he was kinda whiny. They were able to schedule a new patient visit and evaluation within 48 hours of our call. The staff was very nice and experienced. The clinic was a little off the beaten path, but that was good--just in case there was an escaped patient (no busy traffic to deal with). We saw Dr. Smith, and she was very pleasant and quite animated. Very personable, and you could tell she likes big dogs. She spent about 45 minutes with us and Cooper, and told us all about the local environment and what to look out for and what not to worry about. Oh, and their clinic looks brand new and definitely top-shelf. The grounds were also very well maintained--there was even a water-feature for Cooper to walk in while outside :) Prices were about average, but I think you're getting a lot for what you pay for. No unnecessary tests, drugs, etc. Overall, we were very happy with the care and would recommend this place to our friends! Read Less

I can't begin to express our appreciation for the staff at Alder Creek Vet. Over the years we have seen Dr. Tegarden, Dr. Haggarty, and Dr. White for everything from routine appts for immunizations and temporary illness, to an emergency cesarean and resuscitation of pups, to the sadness & pain of our pets end of life. They have always been thorough in their assessments and treatment, kind, compassionate and reasonable in their approach to treatments, laying out options and explaining them, and not judging our decisions. They are all great!! On 2 different occasions they have waited after hours to provide care for my pet and involved our entire family in the birth of pups by cesarean and most recently in having to put down our 11 yr old family member. Dr. White is extremely patient, empathetic and so kind. She waited after hours while we went home and got the kids so they could spend some time with our dog, say goodbye and patiently walked us through the whole process of putting our dog to sleep. She was asking the kids about their memories, and made a really sad time as good as it could be. Thank you!! I find their prices to be extremely reasonable especially in comparison to other clinics. I've been their a lot and occasionally may wait 15min but usually not and honestly, their worth the wait! Read Less

I arrived 5 minutes early for my 4:40pm appointment. After waiting 20 minutes, I asked how much longer i would have to wait. The receptionist said she didn't know for sure cause there were others ahead of me. So I thought about my options: 1. sit there and wait indefinitely to see the doctor, even tho i had a solid (i thought) appointment. 2. Re-schedule and maybe go thru the whole long wait all over again, or 3. just walk away. I chose the last option. It appears that this clinic is overbooking and not able to keep up with the demand, or is just unable to make sense out of the whole appointment concept. Simply said, if you make appointments for people, please have the courtesy to honor them (within a reasonable time ok?) I don't think that is an unreasonable request. Read Less

Dr. Teagarden is our primary and preferred Veterinarian. She's absolutely wonderful and our dogs love her. She guided us through the journey of having a dog with lymphoma, which eventually led to him being put down. Dr. T's compassion during the whole ordeal made dealing with the experience much less painful (although still devastating.) However, we've also been seen by Dr. Haggerty, Dr. White and Dr. Meltzer and wouldn't hesitate to be seen by one of them should Dr. Teagarden be unavailable. The facility is modern and very nice. The front desk staff and assistants are also excellent. Very grateful to have this clinic so close to home.Read Less

Dr. Mary Ann Haggerty and staff are very friendly and professional. We took our dog in on an emergency after being bit by another dog at the dog park; not only did they fit us in at the last minute but they were quick, reasonable and did an great job fixing her bite wound as well. We highly recommend Alder Creek to anyone and won't take our dog anywhere else. Read Less
