If I could give this vet negative stars, I would. We took our 1.5 year old dog to this vet after he stopped eating and was vomiting. The first time we took him, we waited for over two hours just to be told he had a stomach bug and to give him Gatorade with his water and rice. We took him home, followed the doctor's advice, and did see a slight improvement for a few hours. Later that night, our dog began vomiting again which turned into him vomiting blood and refusing to eat. We rushed him back to North Davidson simply because they had seen him just the day before for the same symptoms. After waiting for about an hour, we were seen by Doctor Schmunk who did not run any type of test or blood work and insisted that our dog just be given fluids. The doctor was convinced our dog had gotten into rat poison when we were adamant we did not keep that in or around our home. The doctor refused to listen to us or our concerns or are requests for tests and bloodwork. They kept our dog overnight while doing nothing more than giving him fluids and told us to call every few hours to check on him. We called that night and was advised he had gotten a little better and were told that we should be encouraged by his progress. We advised the doctor to call us if there were any changes, no matter what the time. We heard nothing overnight, which we assumed to be a good sign. However, when we called to check on him first thing the next morning, we were told he died. The doctor offered no explanation and even worse, no sympathy or concern. We were told to pick up our dog and given a time to come. When we arrived, we were told to go around to the back of the building by the dumpster where we were essentially thrown our dog, which was in a trash bag. The staff here is not only unprofessional, uncaring, and unfriendly; but they don't even perform at the minimal level of professional veterinary care. PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT EVER TAKE YOUR ANIMALS HERE. This may be a low-cost vet; but the low cost is not worth the shortcuts the staff here take.

I wish I could give negative stars. This is the worst place ever took my dog up there to have surgery and they said they done everything and come to find out they half ass done it which cause me to have to take her to another vet office and have her have more surgery and all this could have been prevented if they done it right the first time the staff is very rude and unprofessional will never go back to them and definitely will not refer them to anyone if you read there sign out front it shows they don’t care about pets cause they have a sign out front about if you leave your pets in a car they will call and have them put to sleep yes I don’t agree in leaving a pet in a car but there is ways to do things with out haven them put to sleep north Davidson vet sucks

I'm not sure how I feel about this veterinary office... Sometimes they do a good job and then sometimes they are the absolute worst. For example my dog had to have exploratory surgery which they seemed to have done a good job on. Before we found out he needed surgery, we took him and the doc said he had a bacterial infection in his intestines, gave us medicine. Ok, well he wasn't getting better. Took him back, doc felt his stomach, felt a lump. Ended up being a rubber sippy cup stopper he swallowed before we got him. If he had a bacterial infection in his intestines why didn't they check his stomach the first time? Second example, my parents Dane ended up getting parvo somehow. He got so bad we had to put him down, we literally sat out back behind the building with all the employees coming out to smoke their cigarettes while we asked for hours when they were going to give him the shot to put him down. The poor pup suffered, had strokes and/or seizures for four hours while we waited for someone to come out and give him a shot. That really pissed me off and makes me very nervous every time I go now... I'd go somewhere else but I've not heard good things about other vets either so you're damned if you do and damned if you don't.
