They are sales people..They ALWAYS want to do test after test which I turned down and they decided to do an exam even after we told them we didn’t need one that I got charged $50 plus $9.95 for as well meanwhile our last exam was just months ago. All I wanted was an ear cleaning and allergy medication and walked away with over a $200 bill. It’s sad because the main staff are really nice and you can see the love they have for our pets but all the dr staff worries about is sales. Being that this is not the first time this has been done to us, I sadly have to look for a new place to go as the constant sales pitches are unavoidable and extremely annoying.

Lovely interactions with the staff and we weren't forced into any up charges or unnecessary care

Sasha was so amazing with our fur baby! She is so knowledgeable, along with the doctor and all the staffs! They are so friendly and kind! I am a first time pet owner and they made it so amazing! Love the place and will always come here for my baby fur!

This is a very long review but trust me it’s worth the read!! I originally gone here bc my dog was having an issue that needed to be seen ASAP. I was going to take him to his home vet but they were full and couldn’t see him that same day so I came to this location bc they had same day appointments available. I walked in and the lady told me the estimate total would be about 110, so originally I was okay with that. They took my dog back and had a look at him, the vet came back saying that they would need a urine sample because whatever he had could be bladder stones or kidney stones then she said it could also be a infection. Then she mentioned that pancho could possibly need an X-ray to detect the stones, then she said he needed get blood drawn to sample it . So before I agreed to do anything she mentioned bringing a quote of what these things would cost for that day. Her assistant brought the quote and it was for 500 dollars !? I was in complete shock. I told her that I wasn’t sure and had to think about it because I came in thinking it would be 110 like she said but 500 dollars is wayyy out of my budget. But then the assistant told me that it’s okay that I could think about it but that they had already taken a blood sample from my dog !? Im here like ??? I never agreed to that and I never okayed it. So I was kind of upset so I told her oh okay then I guess go ahead and do the senior profile ( blood test and urine analysis) . I ended up paying around 250. Next day passes and they give me a call saying they found crystals in his urine and that it could be bladder stones and if he isn’t peeing okay that it could be an emergency, BUT that she needed another sample bc his past sample could’ve been falsified ? So that right there was already a red flag for me. Then she mentions that he needs an X-ray as well.. then she sends me a quote of 400 dollars . Of course I was very skeptical. So I went to my dogs home vet and luckily enough they had an open appointment and they did a urine sample on him and told me that he had no crystals in his urine and that it was just inflammation and to continue his prescription that this vet had given him and that the inflammation will go down on its own. So this is why I wrote this very long review bc I’m more than upset because can you imagine how much more money I would’ve spent for absolutely NOTHING if I wouldn’t have gotten a second opinion.

I have searched a long time for the kind of care that my Penny Lane received at Thrive-Buford! She is usually so nervous, but they eased her anxiety with LOVE and ATTENTION! I felt thorough explanations were given for all diagnostics recommended and we were given reasonable options that worked best for my ol' girl. My business will go nowhere else for ALL of my animals' care.

Alvin loved his visit to Thrive! He can sometimes get anxious at other vet offices, but Dr. Murray and Sarah showed him right away that he was in good hands. The team at Thrive clearly love what they do and it shows ❤️

We had a great experience, my dog came in for a Wellness exam and vaccines. Alicia was wonderful, friendly and took great care of my pet. She explained in detail how much everything would cost beforehand. They trimmed my dogs nails perfectly. The facility is very clean and more affordable than my previous veterinary clinic. Would highly recommend.

I can't say enough good things. I took my baby Lilly here for over a year. She was a senior and this was the most affordable care. I could also count on being in and out quickly. Today I had to say goodbye to my baby Lilly, and they took such good care of her to the end. I would highly recommend this place.

I couldnt recommend a place less. Brought my dog and cat here for wellness exams + nail trims. As you can see, 2 of my dogs nails were trimmed INCREDIBLY SHORT. The other paw was barely trimmed. The two short nails bled and bled for about 2 hours, and my dog limped for the entire day. I spoke with the manager here, didnt catch her name, and was informed that there was nothing that could be done as she couldnt "be sure" that the injury was caused by the nail trim, yet i called them as soon as i arrived home so i dont see how she could have possibly injured it from the walk out of the vet 10 feet to the car. She was incredibly snarky and spoke to me as if I was only trying to get money from them!! I just wanted a refund on the $20 nail trim! I spent $500 on wellness exams it is the least they could do to keep a client! If im taking my dog to a VET, im expecting them to help my dog feel better, not leave her with a sore and bloody paw and nothing more than a "sorry". Oh, they did offer to have us come in and "examine it and stop the bleeding", like thats any better! My dog shouldnt be bleeding in the first place! Horrible place. Horrible experience. Do not go here.

Thrive has been my best vet experience yet. I even moved into the city and continue to take my cat to the Buford location. Excellent care, communication and staff that goes above and beyond. Dr. Murray, Alecia, Sarah- and every staff member I’ve interacted with have been professional but so caring and hands on treating my cat like their own. 12/10 recommend bringing your pet here!

Dr. Murray and the Tech Alecia were incredible... Our lab was extremely sick and they were incredible thoughtful, cost conscious and knowledgeable. They guided us through a scary situation and pup is doing much better!

We took our 3 month old puppy there for some stomach issues she was having, and Alicia and the Dr. were the best. You could tell they have a passion and a true care about your pet and that’s exactly what we were looking for. Our pup enjoyed being there unlike other offices she been to. The overall cost is by far the best in the area and frankly a fraction of the cost of what it would be anywhere else. Awesome staff and very clean environment. 5 out of 5 any day.
