I stopped in for flea prevention a few weeks ago. The way I was treated and those that came in while I was being served made me want to make an appointment. Same experience today. Boarded Chipper and we were very happy with care he received as well as manner in which information was relayed to us. We found out about you guys from Mary Katherine Flynn and her pup Waylon : very nice and helpful to work us in!
Rocky Ridge Animal Clinic offers a premier boarding facility that is all indoors and climate controlled. Our feline guests have their own wing. We have both spacious cages and indoor runs in our kennel. We do not leash walk our guests. Instead, they are taken out to a fenced-in play area three times daily to exercise.

I recently brought my two Huskies to this vet for the first time last week, and it was a great experience. The employees and Veterinarian were very nice and down to earth, and they were eager to take care of the two pups. The dogs weren't nervous around anyone there and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Definitely give them a call if you need vet services in the Birmingham area!

If I could leave no stars I would. Used to love this place, but wont ever even try to use them again. Called and scheduled my dog for boarding. Apparently it was the owner who I spoke with. He told me they had plenty of room for my dog and that they had tons of dogs go home the day I spoke with him. He took all of my information per usual and pulled us up in the system. got to the drop off date and was told they did not have any space for my dog.

Completely inconvenient to now not have anywhere to take my dog because everywhere else is booked and the appointment was secured. Would completely not recommend under any circumstances if you want to be sure your pet has a spot for boarding.

The receptionist with short hair has a nasty attitude both times I've been. Regardless, of how nice I am. She acts as if I am a bother to her just by asking a question. The guy doctor (I didn't get his name) was so incredibly rude to his employees. I felt so bad for them. I couldn't imagine working for someone who treated me that way. It didn't even seem like they had done anything wrong!

And he doesn't care that paying clients can hear him degrade his employees! I won't be back, simply because of the attitudes of those 2 people. The 2 people who are supposed to be kind were horribly mean! My daughter is a technician who recently got her license. I will NOT be recommending this place for her to work. I've heard great things about the lady vet there but I unfortunately wasn't Able to have her as my dog's veterinarian.

Critical: Professionalism, Quality That's the surgery light. It is dangling from the ceiling over an open dog. They reuse medical equipment and will argue with you to save their own as$. Know where you are taking your dogs. Helena vet is great. As well as the vet right down the road from them. Don't risk your animals to support them.

Fantastic folks here. They took care of our pups while we were evacuated for Hurricane Ida and the dogs seemed very pleased about their stay.

They are amazing from the staff that works up from to the drs. My dog had a huge mass on the front part of her chest (turned out to be cancer) but they removed it all and have called to follow up. Every time we go in they know her by name. They are one of the most reasonably priced vets I've ever been to.

The sweetest staff to my pup and I. My dog is always excited to go back with them so I can tell that they love on him. Typical pricing. Always clean. I can tell they really care about my dogs health with the conversations that we've had.

If I could rate in the negative, I would. Our groomer was backed up and we needed our pets cut. We thought we would try this location due to the positive reviews. Wish we hadn't. They SHAVED my beautiful miniature Aussie. My mother in law and kids picked the dogs up, so they just paid and left. I was shocked when I got home from work. I will now need to protect him from the sun until his hair grows back some.

You would think a professional groomer would know better. It looked like someone grooming for the first time ever did this. We will never return and if you love your pet - don't recommend grooming services here.

Very poor pet care, rude staff our little puppy got very bad experience, they charged us for grooming but not worth will not recommend anyone. we did took the whole bag of the food with us, and they made us to get more food, which they didn't even fed him, we had all the vaccines done for our puppy done but they gave him another Vaccines, if anyone don't have the the vaccines for their puppy how can they have them on board, so all the want is to make money and don't care for the other puppies.

Mostly staff is soo rude and disrespectful, they expect you Don't ask them anything but just pay them with No questions asked. We also had an accident in the car, (poo) that they didn't take him out, when we called them and asked when they mentioned they took him out in the morning, very poor service.

Wonderful staff! Cheapest exam fee I have found at any vet. The wait wasn't long at all and my baby was taken care of for his rash/bites! Spent less here than I had expected so I am one happy customer! Will definitely be back!

Dr. Evans is the best vet I have used! She is very professional, caring, and thorough. I have been to several Vets over the years and Rocky Ridge A.C. has by far been the best experience. The whole staff there is great! It starts with Dr. Evans and continues with Kelly at the front office and Courtney the Vet Tech. I am not the type that likes to leave my dog with anyone or anywhere without me, but they really make you feel at ease with those three taking care of him.
