Buster, my rescue, had never stayed overnight anywhere and I was very concerned. I toured Buckeystown in advance and the staff was caring and welcoming. The kennel area was as clean as any hospital that I've seen and Buster had a wonderful stay. I would definitely recommend.

Report
Needed a vet after moving to the area. Thankful that a friend recommended Buckeyestown Veterinary Hospital. Office staff was very helpful. I was able to get my cat in for a nail trim a few days later. At previous vet, he incurred a "difficult cat fee". But the tech here at BVH didn't seen to have much trouble and charge was $22 LESS than I paid at old place. Unfortunately they are scheduling new patient appointments for 6-8 weeks out. However my dog and 2 cats don't have any urgent need to see a doctor so the delay doesn't affect us. I hope they recruit another veterinarian soon.

We have been taking our dogs to Buckeystown for years now and we absolutely love them and our dogs do too! The entire staff is wonderful and has a genuine love for the animals and it shows. Highly recommend if you live in the area and are looking for a vet. A huge shout out of the client service manager Amytha. I called in with a concern regarding our puppy and she was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond with assisting me. Thank you Amytha & Buckeystown!
