This was our 1st visit with our two (2 1/2 year old female and male Aussie Shepherd) who are litter sister and brother. We had some not so great experiences with a previous vet in the area. I cannot thank the staff at Waterway Vet enough for their professionalism, caring and patience with our skittish Aussies. They took their time and made sure the pups were not freaked out. A great experience from walking in to leaving. I cannot say enough good things about this practice.Linda O.Linda O. ★★★★★ Thank you so so much for your compassion and care when it came to our cat Mandy.

Friendly service. Feel at ease that they will take good care of our fur babies.Laura B.Laura B. ★★★★★ I called Waterway when my own local vet could not see our ill furbaby, Annie, for a week. I called waterway and the receptionist explained my situation and Dr. Kathy took her at 1:00pm that same day. We were shocked. She was so caring and did everything she could do to make Annie comfortable, based on her bloodwork and tests. After a week of hydration, antibiotics, steroids, nausea and pain medications, she got worse and didn’t eat or drink for days. Dr. Kathy was so wonderful. Even though we had to make the impossible humane choice of letting Annie go a week later, I can’t think of a better place to have to do it than Waterway with Dr. Kathy and Taylor. They were incredibly sensitive and Dr, Kathy even cried with us. She didn’t know us from anyone off the street, yet her compassion was as if we were lifetime patients. The whole staff signed a card for us and expressed how sorry they all were for our sudden loss. Annie was dead by the time our own vet even wanted to schedule her sick appointment. I don’t think there is any more to say than that.Thank you to Dr. Kathy, Taylor and all waterway staff who cared about us and tried to help our Annie.Kelley and Bob RainsKelley R.Kelley R. ★★★★★ Waterway Animal Hospital has been such a great place for my dog.

I trust them to care for my babiesKarey “Karebear” C.Karey “Karebear” C. ★★★★★ In all my 35 years of being a pet owner and needing a local veterinarian, I can say that Waterway Animal Hospital has given me the best service EVER! I have never experienced (time after time) such exceptional, wonderful, accommodating and easy to work with staff as WAH. They have provided my 4 pets (2 cats & 2 dogs) with such respectable, service oriented and affordable care. Being a loving and responsible pet owner comes with a lot of expenses. They have the best care cost around (from my extensive search) and are always sharing options to help make it as affordable as possible. In addition, my pets are at ease with everyone they’ve come to know there. I feel much more at ease knowing my fur babies are loved on with sincerity each time they have appointments. And it doesn’t stop short of visits, they call to follow up on how the patients are doing, even after routine vaccinations. Thanks WAH for being the best in the biz in my humble opinion. You are so appreciated and very valued. 😻🐾Rhonda R.Rhonda R. ★★★★★ Great place to bring your pet. Nice staff and they care about your pet!Carl P.Carl P. ★★★★★ It was pouring rain when we arrived at Waterway & we were met at our car w/an umbrella! We were put in a room immediately. The Vet tech was super friendly collecting all of Cappuccino’s basic info & history. When the doctor came in, she actually sat on the floor to get Cappuccino-comfortable, he was nervous with the other animals around & thunderstorms. The Vet was so friendly, patient & knowledgeable, she knew Cap’s history. They didn’t try to sell unnecessary meds or vaccinations. Check out was a breeze, everyone at the front desk was kind & personable. We love Waterway Vet, we trust them with our very spoiled dog & definitely recommend them to others.Lauren S.Lauren S. ★★★★★ Dr. Kathy and her staff are great and have been taking care of our pets for years.Allen T.Allen T. ★★★★★ These are the most caring people in their profession.
