I was recommended this vet by a good friend of mine for my two cats. Initially I had inquired on a Friday and they had offered me the following Monday, but due to my schedule I opted to wait a month for their next Saturday appt. This was for my cat who was wheezing/coughing, which they let me know to monitor for any changes and to see the emergency vet if it got worse. I ended up taking both of my cats in for a regular exam ($53) and received their yearly vaccinations (~$100). I appreciate them allowing me in the exam room with my pets and they were up front with all costs and didn't try to upsell me on any services. There was no wait time for my appointment and all services were complete for two cats within 30 minutes.

We saw Dr. Raney for our dog's hotspot issue and she did not provide any remedy to my dog's condition than what I was already doing. She tried to sell me on getting X-rays on his nose merely because it was wet and cleaning of ears when there was no infection. She told us the wipes we have been using were not anti fungal so we would buy ones from them, but in fact our wipes were antifungal. Really felt she was very unknowledgeable and we wasted our time and money. We ended up just getting shot of cytopoint, but we are not 100% sure that he was given the injection since he's still licking his paws and rubbing his face few days after the appointment. If we do go back, we would definitely only see Dr. Shim.

Do not get a surgery from this place! This happened a couple years ago but every time someone asks for a recommendation on a place to get their pet spayed or neutered I always say don't come here! So I'm finally taking some time to warn on Yelp. I brought my cat here to get spayed and they must have overdosed her for the surgery or the pain meds... She was faintly breathing and not moving at all for hours! Even tho I was told she would be ok & just sleepy.. I looked for the paper work they gave me to call them or see if I missed something (like how many hours she would be knocked out) cause it was hours later and she was still knocked out cold and her breathing seemed a lot worse. Wellll they gave me paper work for someone else (Human and cat names) and had the Weight of a much heavier cat! Who knows how much drugs they gave my poor cat that day! I took her to the emergency that night and called to complain to this vet the next day and they said they would refund the procedure or my emergency vet bill but they never did. I never bothered back with them because they clearly aren't responsible or responsive people. I would never recommend this place!

I've brought my dog here a few times and really liked Dr. Shim and the staff and was looking forward to making this my primary veterinarian. HOWEVER, today I went in to have my 10 year old cat euthanized. She has been eating, drinking, and using the litter box approximately 3x her typical amount for 6 months. She has been peeing outside of her box sometimes, and has been vomiting every other day for 2-3 weeks now. There is CLEARLY something wrong with my cat and I don't want her to suffer any more. Enter "doctor" Rainey (spelling); who refused to euthanize my cat against my wishes. Let me add that my cat has been incredibly aggressive for 5+ years now, viciously attacking my ex-girlfriend and myself 3 times now (picture of my most recent attack attached, 08/2023). This "doctor" accused me of DRUGGING my cat. WTF is wrong with you lady? Thank you for wasting my time and causing me to look for a new vet. I will do some searching and pray to not be attacked or have my dog attacked by my little monster. P.S. 1 minute out of her crate after returning from Alton Main, guess who peed on the carpet? PICTURE ATTACHED. THANK YOU DR RAINEY

Dr.Shim and his staff are amazing ! They take their time to hear your concerns and it doesn't feel like they are trying to nickel and dime you for unnecessary procedures. Unlike other places I've been to - looking at you Banfield ! They are incredibly sweet and know how much our pets means to us which is very refreshing to experience when your little one is sick. I brought my puppy Zelda over for some tummy troubles and they took care of her right away. Got her some meds and Hills variety of dog food. It was like magic, she was back to her usual self ! So happy to found this place - way to go Dr.Shim and staff, thank you for all that you do!

Garrix got his cleaning today thanks to Dr Shim and staff. He has a chipped canine but luckily Dr Shim said we didn't need to extract, just needed smoothing. His teeth are now purely white/clean. He was back to catching flies as soon as he got home

First time puppy parent here! We have a miniature dachshund and I looked into a couple of vet offices in my area and decided to give Dr. Shim a try based on the Yelp reviews. I liked that he has treated other dachshunds for IVDD since that is common with my puppy's breed. I am pleased to say we left the vet office feeling so happy and relieved with all the office staff and Dr. Shim. He was kind and walked us through our puppy's first examination. He also gave us a tour of the facilities (surgery room, X-ray room, and the kennel) and loved seeing where all the pets go to be treated and healed. The staff was kind and gentle with our 12 week pup and we were out of there in about 30 minutes (tour included). I'm not sure if prices are reasonable since it's my first pet but it didn't seem unreasonable to me for all the services provided: exam consult, vaccinations (parvo and kennel cough), deworming, and a fecal exam. See picture attached. We have to go back and drop off a fecal sample tomorrow since our pup was nice and clean LOL We'll be back in 3 weeks for his rabies shot.

We rescued our beloved Chunks from the streets and since then Dr Shim has been taking good care of him, he recommended to run some tests and we found out he is FVI positive. Thanks to Dr. Shim we can provide Chunks a good quality of life. I’ll recommend Alton Pet Clinic to everyone.
