Central Kentucky Veterinary Center houses some of the kindest, most patient, caring vets and techs I know. Do not listen to the negative reviews about wait times. They are busy at times and waits can get long, sure, but if you look at clinic availability in the area you can see why. There aren't that many vet centers in Georgetown (or on the North side of Lexington). Further, I hope you keep in mind that if the staff is busy they are genuinely busy trying to assist and animal that is in much worse condition than your own. The amount of times they have squeezed us in with no notice (yes, with a wait) to check on our beloved dogs is many. In those times they have never showed anything but patience and kindness to us or our dogs. They answer questions and give health advice kindly and thoughtfully. Their top concern is the health of your pet. Pricing is extremely fair to what I've experienced in the area and a friendly reminder that if you cannot afford vet care, you cannot afford a pet. They work hard, care a lot, and it shows. We have taken all three of our dogs there and they are also blood donors at the clinic. The clinic is clean and the staff is wonderful. Be kind to your vets, folks.

Interesting visit. Never saw vet only vet tech, I guess. Yes it was just for a shot but since I didn't actually see it happen.......they took him out of exam room and then brought him back. Usually when I have taken him in I see the vet doing an exam.

PLEASE READ! If you are looking for a compassionate, responsive, reliable veterinarian that isn't all about the money...DO NOT USE CENTRAL KENTUCKY VET CLINIC!!! After going to this vet for years with multiple animals I made an appt. to have my 16 year old Labrador euthanized. The appt. was made on Friday July 16th for 10:30 am on Saturday July 17th. I paid in full for all services and cremation, at the time the appt was made. Upon waking on Saturday and realizing that my dog was in the active stages of dying and suffering terribly I called Central Ky Vet to ask if she could be brought in earlier, as I didn't want her to continue suffering so. I was told to bring her in at 9:30 am. I arrived at the clinic at 9:25 am, checked in, and was told someone would be out. I proceeded to wait in my truck for over an hour with my dog in the back seat. I went inside three separate times and begged someone to come to my dog's aid...no one came! Then I was informed that, unbeknownst to me, they had cancelled my original 10:30 appt.! Still no one came! Finally, an off duty vet happened to pull up. I explained to him what had occurred and pleaded with him to help my blessed dog. He went inside, gathered the necessary supplies, and within 5 minutes my dog was out of her misery and pain. My dog laid in the back of my truck for an hour and a half actively dying, in excruciating pain! When all was said and done, I received not one single apology, no mention of a discount of the services I had already paid for...much less a refund, and after calling once I arrived home to obtain all records for all of my animals I was rudely hung up on by Sheila. Furthermore, the exact same experience occurred with another of my dogs less than four months earlier at this same vet! There is simply no excuse for the blatant lack of concern and compassion that both I and my dogs went through. The lack of professionalism, and shear incompetence of this clinic is staggering to me! To be traumatized to this degree and to have my precious babies to be treated so inhumanly is simply inexcusable. My precious "best friend" of 16 years did not deserve that! Please, if you love your fur babies and want humane, compassionate treatment...DO NOT GO TO CENTRAL KENTUCKY VET CLINIC! Save yourself the heartache and grief! No one should experience what I have!

I had been bringing my dogs here for almost two years. It was sufficient care for my healthy dogs. This July the unimaginable happened and I had a very sick dog. The way I was spoken to by the staff was subpar and frankly sad under such stressful circumstances. I made the choice to switch vets solely on the way I was treated and spoken to.

I went in to buy an over the counter pet med that a buddy had told me about. I called to make sure it was in stock and when I got there I walked up to the counter and asked about it. I showed her the picture and she asked "if I was a client" to which I said "I was in the past" to which she looked up at me like I said something wrong. She then said" well, sent's it vet strength we can't provide it to you, it's just like a prescription" to which I said "but it's not a prescription" to which she said "well, it's like one and we need to do an exam before we can sell that to you" to which I said "my dog has been diagnosed, I just want to try this to see if it helps him" to which she said nothing.... I then said "so, I can't buy this without spending even more money" and she said "yes, you will have to pay the exam fee plus any tests the vet orders " to which I said "but, I can buy it off your site (via pet source) with no prescription" and she again said nothing. I then just walked out. Go there if you got the extra money and don't need it. I ordered off vet source NOT via their site because I will not fund crooks. To CKVC, you are supposed to help the animals that are our family, some of us take it personal when you try to make a quick buck off their pain.

I've been a client for 15 years and I trust the vets completely. High quality care and genuine concern for the well being of both the pet and the owner.

On Thursday a couple of neighbor dogs got lose from their pen. They came over to our house and attacked my yellow lab Winston, who was in the back yard. Unfortunately, I wasn't home when it happened. Winston received two wounds on his back left leg area. I took him to Central KY vet on Saturday morning. Our appointment was for 730am. We got in the doors around 720am and we were placed into a room at 735am. The vet saw Winston immediately and checked his wounds. Winston got his wounds cleaned, received antibiotics, and pain meds. The total time at the vet was approximately 1 hour. My bill for the visit was - $257. The bill included cleaning the wounds (there were two), antibiotics, a cone, sedative and pain meds. The place was clean and well staffed. The staff is always friendly. The vet seemed knowledgeable. Tip: make an appointment, unless it's an emergency. It's only my opinion but the head cone doesn't work on very active dogs. Well see. 11-14-2018 *** 3 stars. Took our dog "Stonewall" to CKVC in Georgetown, KY. He developed a large mass on his chest area. He is an 11 year old chocolate lab. Our appointment was for 9am and we were placed in a room at 8:54 after arriving a couple minutes early. The Vet saw us at 9:01. The place was clean n as usual, the staff was friendly. The estimate to remove the mass was $737.51. That seems really high for just removing a small mass. I paid $33.92 for the vet visit today. I scheduled an another appointment to have the mass removed for Monday morning. I will take a day and look for a better deal or I might cancel the appointment all together. I will update my post when I decide. 3-23-2019 update review. I'm back to 5 stars lol. Our beloved dog, Stonewall, passed on March 10th. The diagnosis I received from both veterinary services advised his cancer was terminal and operating would (maybe) prolong his life. We decided not to have surgery and Stonewalls cancer grew quickly. Sad, but he wagged his tail to the end. Tip - There is a great Animal Hospice Service in Lexington. Yes, I said hospice. Lap of love. They were awesome. Check them out. You won't be disappointed.

This place is a very solid vet. It has several different vets so you can't really build a relationship with just one, but they are all nice and knowledgeable.

This place is amazing. They take excellent care of my dog and are reasonably priced. Even better, their availability is great. I called at 7:30 when they opened the doors and they got me in at 8 am. Love the staff as well.

Awesome staff and great service. Vet did an initial visit with our pup and went over the exam with us.
