I took my Great Pyrenees, Buddy to Southside Animal Hospital for a second opinion when I was encouraged a few days earlier by another Vet Clinic to schedule surgery to have a large lump removed from his back.

This Vet Clinic made no tests other than the one they had made with positive results a year earlier and there was no change in the lump. The doctor stated her belief that the lump was cancerous & surgery would be needed to remove it, but without testing.

Thankfully, I did not listen to what the other Vet Clinic suggested & I scheduled an appointment for a second opinion at Southside Animal Hospital. My appointment was at 10AM & a very nice lady came & took us to an exam room just a minute later, no waiting. The girls up front was also friendly & nice.

I think Buddy & I really lucked up when we were seen by Dr Weaver. She was the nicest, kindest person ever & I felt she really cared about Buddy, not like so many vets in the past, just push & shove, hurry up, get your money & get you out the door.

As it turned out after Dr Weaver made tests, Buddy was 'fit as a fiddle" & did not need surgery. I think it is despicable that a Vet would suggest surgery on an animal with no tests whatsoever, just what they think & with dollar signs in their eyes.

Needless to say, Southside Animal Hospital will be our place to go from now on. I would recommend it to anybody that has been looking for great professional care for their pets
BUDDY GIVES DR WEAVER 11 STARS!!

I took my cat to Southside Animal Hospital for his yearly appointment, and Dr Top found a mass in his mouth. The fact that she even found it was impressive. My cat is a fighter at the vet, but she noticed the mass as he was hissing at her. Talk about attention to detail! The possibility that the mass could be cancer was terrifying, but Dr Top was informed, provided good information/guidance for next steps, showed sympathy, and fit me into her already full schedule for my cat to have surgery and biopsy the mass the following week. She was also understanding of my financial concerns. Dr Top was able to extract all of the mass and was patient with me as I asked numerous questions before and after surgery. She called me herself to communicate the results- no cancer! But inflammation caused by gingivitis. She then recommended water additives for cats to promote dental hygiene, and I will be taking my cat for a dental cleaning in the new year. I thank God and Dr Top for the great outcome and for taking care of my fur baby. Especially when he can be a handful at the vet. I’m impressed with Dr Top’s ability and professionalism, and I am happy with the process as a whole. My cat seems to have a new lease on life and is playing more now that we got that nasty mass out of his mouth. Thank you Dr Top and team!

Southside is by far the best animal hospital we’ve ever used. We’ve brought our cats and dogs to them for 14 years. We recommend every pet owner we know to them. Highly recommend all of their vets but especially Dr Weaver.

Southside has been our go-to vet for a few years now and every experience has been pleasant and helpful. They were very accommodating when my dog passed away and they take great care of our new one!

We have been bringing our dogs and cat here for years. They have taken great care of our pets and really responsive when you have questions but aren’t sure a visit is medically necessary. My cat loves them so much he has faked being sick a few times for attention.

Dr Sara Anderson has been so caring and compassionate with both of my dogs. She was especially kind with my dog, Scout, who had been diagnosed with cancer after having a high-grade mast cell tumor removed by a different vet 1-31-23. She gave me various options if I start to notice symptoms that his condition is worsening. As his cancer progressed she walked through it with me. Thank you, Dr. Anderson, for being the kind, caring vet I have been searching for!

I have been taking my dogs to Southside Animal Hospital for 25 years. They have always done an excellent job, whether the visit was an annual physical, vaccinations or diagnosing disease or other health challenges. Her most recent visit was vaccinations. The doctor also checked her diabetes and she got a good report. They also ran tests to check her general health—also a good report. I have full trust in Southside personnel and plan to continue using their services.
