Veterinarians near Kenner, LA

“Staff and vets were wonderful!. Our visiting guests had their dog prescribed the wrong pills by their vet at home and their dog was in an emergency situation. They saw their dog right away. Would highly recommend this veterinary hospital.”

“Chateau Veterinary Hospital was absolutely amazing—especially if you’re traveling internationally with a pet, or honestly, if you just need an exceptional vet.

They handled our international health certificate for our dog, Chester, and our cat, Muscade, and made what is usually a very stressful process feel completely manageable. Summer Stein was our main point of contact, and she is truly an expert when it comes to international travel paperwork. Dr. Fraser completed the health screening, and the entire process was seamless.

One huge bonus that not many people realize: if you’re traveling with two pets, they can be listed on one health certificate. That alone saved us time, money, and unnecessary stress.

Before finding Chateau, I had reached out to several clinics and felt overwhelmed and unsure. The moment Summer answered my call, I felt confident we were in the right hands—and I was right. We arrived in France with zero issues.

One very important tip for anyone traveling internationally with pets: yes, the health certificate must be validated within 10 days of travel, but your vet appointment should be scheduled at least one month before your departure. This allows enough time for the USDA to process, endorse, and mail everything back to you. Summer guided us through this timing perfectly.

I also really appreciated that they had us test anti-anxiety medication before travel to ensure the correct dosage. Best advice ever. It made a world of difference knowing exactly what Chester needed—and to be clear, these are not tranquilizers, which are forbidden for international travel. We even had to recheck Chester in Paris for our connecting flight to Nice. He refused additional medication at that point but still did very well. There were no issues—no barking, no complaints from airline staff, and he remained calm throughout the entire process. He was understandably nervous by the time we picked him up in Nice, but he was completely okay. I was nervous about giving him medication in the first place, but testing it ahead of time and following their guidance truly paid off.

Another thing worth mentioning: Chester is an anxious dog when it comes to vet visits. He’s sweet—not aggressive—just scared. The team handled his exam and vaccinations with patience, calm, and confidence. They clearly know how to work thoughtfully with nervous animals, and that meant a lot to us.

I also really appreciated that they offer happy visits, where you can stop in without an appointment just to help your pet feel comfortable with the vet and environment—no exam, no stress, just positive exposure.

Beyond all of that, this is simply an outstanding veterinary office. Everyone is incredibly kind, organized, professional, welcoming, and knowledgeable—what more could you ask for? It’s clearly a locally owned practice, not a corporate chain, and that shows in every interaction. I had a terrible experience at a corporate vet prior to this, and honestly, I’m grateful for it because it led me to Chateau Veterinary Hospital.

Thank you so much to the entire team at Chateau Veterinary Hospital. We truly couldn’t have done this without you. We’re now happily settled and enjoying our life in France.”

“River Road Veterinary took such great care of my girl, Zoe Jolie. Thank you to Dr. Brignac and staff for getting through what may be the worst part of 2026 and beyond - saying good bye to my good girl on 2/4/26. I recommend River Road Veterinary to anyone who has a pet they love and care for. This place shows the same love and compassion to your pet and you. Reasonably priced but your can't put a price on the care of your fur baby. It may be a while to heal from losing my Zoe but I'll be fine. I will always be greatful to River Road Veterinary.”

“Everyone I interacted with here was amazing!! Angie is the BEST and Kora sure knows how to handle problem children and grooming!! Overall, I am VERY satisfied with our first visit!!”

“I had to make the unfortunate decision to put my girl Luna (black lab) down. This is the first time I've used Clearview Veterinary Hospital. They offer home euthanization for your babies. Dr. Edmond and vet tech Nikkie came to my house and was so caring to my family and of course Luna. Dr. Edmond was very thorough, explained everything I needed to know and gave us as much time as we needed with Luna. Thanks for taking care of my girl (and me because I was a mess). Melanie Hymel”

“Cash is a small miniature schnauzer. He can be nervous when he goes to the vet. This time he was very relaxed, even when he was given his medication/ shots. The staff are very friendly, attentive and welcoming. The Veterinarian was very gentle and informative. I highly recommend the practice.”

“I’m so glad to finally find an exotic vet that is truly an exotic vet. I’ve experienced several vets that include “exotic” in their name but can’t even handle a guinea pig. Dr. Rich and his associates are very knowledgeable and truly care for their patients. They inform you at every step of the way and go over and above not only to treat but to keep you updated on your fur baby. I wish I could give more that 5 stars.”

“We are from Dallas. Lucille started passing blood in the urine. They took her in the next morning firt thing. Very clean facility, professional staff. The Doc. Very knowledgeable and compassionate. Slight infection is believed. Meds and we were on our way. Lucille is doing wonderful.”

“We moved to New Orleans and were struggling to find a vet we liked, but we love love love the team at Lakeview.

We have two French Bulldogs which always comes with extra complications/vet bills and Dr. Goldman and Dr. Guichard are both incredibly helpful with brachycephalic dog breed specific issues. They really go the extra mile to make sure your pet is taken care of and they are also aware of avoiding extra costs.

We have done our routine care with them as well as two surgeries, can’t recommend them enough.”

“We went today and had to say goodbye to our dear elderly cat. It was one of the worst days of my life, but I found solace in the amazing humans there. Everyone was unbelievably kind, from the receptionist to the nurse to the doctor and especially the manager (thank you, from the bottom of my heart). They all made sure my dear girl felt the warmth and love of not just her family, but everyone she came into contact with on her final day. I lost my best friend, but it was moving to see so many great humans rallying to help, even though we were completely new and they never met us before. It restored some hope on a very dark day. Thank you Ark. May all furry friends feel the love and compassion my girl did on their last day.”

“Everyone, especially the vet tech and the vet. My cat is kind of shy and they were very good at making him feel comfortable. Also did a great job of explaining things.”

“They are amazing, I have been going to Prytania Vet for over a decade, you cannot imagine how kind and patient they are with me every single time. They are wonderful caring vets and staff. Very compassionate care of my dear cat who died and guiding me through adopting a new kitten with every kitten health problem possible. I have seen almost every vet here and they are all excellent, the staff is extremely kind.”

“My dog had a CCL repair jan 6th in my home town in NW Arkansas she had 10 staples that needed to be removed 10 days later only we had vacation plans in Louisiana after getting here i researched veterinarian services and found expressway animal hospital they were fantastic no appointments walk in and they removed staples and did not even charge me for their services I would recommend them if I lived here they'd be my new veterinarian”

“I'm the person that always wants to stick with one doctor (for myself as well). However, at CCVH, that is not the case. I feel confident and comfortable with each doctor. They all take the time to get to know the patient and their human and it is evident that they care. I never feel rushed and they always take the time to answer any and all questions. Whenever asked about a vet, I jump to recommend CCVH!”

“I brought my cat in for an emergency check up visit. It was my first visit and I couldn’t be happier. Dr. Amelie and Brittany took excellent care of my cat and went above and beyond to work with me. I let them know the budget I was working with and they honored me while giving my cat excellent care. I am so grateful I found them, and I look forward to coming back in the future.”

“Have been bringing my cat Salem to Canal St Vet for five years. We’d tried a couple other vets in town when he started having itchy skin issues and he was diagnosed with everything from fleas (another vet kept insisting this was his problem despite him being on meds and my never seeing a flea- I was vaccuuming my house five times a day freaking out) to anxiety. When we finally came to Canal St Vet they got him on prescription allergy-friendly food and a medicine called Atopica. It worked for a while and when it stopped we tried shots, also worked a charm then stopped, and finally we tried an oral pill that works perfectly and has been for years!! I will never forget how grateful I was to the vets for helping us trouble shoot instead of just dismissing us with flea or anxiety medicine. Watching him finally have relief is the best thing ever!
He also is FIV+, and had his back hip joint removed back when I first adopted him from the SPCA, and he’s also EVIL at the vet lol. They always handle him with care, treat him with all of his special needs in mind, and are sooooooo sweet to him and love him so much even when he is trying to attack. Lots of churus and reassuring words at the vet and it’s as painless as possible.
All of the front desk people and vet assistants are SO sweet, you can tell they all just adore animals. I’ve never waited more than five minutes for my appointment and they are super efficient. There’s also a rescued pigeon in the front which I love and think speaks to their care for animals <3
I moved to Florida for two years and struggled to find a vet office that matched this, I was so happy to return here when me and my kitty cat moved back!! 11/10 recommend it here!!”

“Dr McSweeney and his staff are always very caring and knowledgeable. I appreciate the time they take with me during appointments to ensure that my pups get the proper care.”

“The staff was wonderful. We are from out of town and needed a vet visit. They took us right in, done in under an hour! They took very good care of all our needs and concerns!”

“I’ve had nothing but a great experience here! The staff is so nice and friendly! It’s so affordable and I would recommend! Turkey, my dog, was found on the street with a broken leg and they took her in and amputated her leg. The staff remember her every time she comes in and it’s so welcoming! Turkey may have a different review, but I personally love it here!”

“All three of our dogs go to Metairie Small Animal Hospital, and we couldn’t be happier with the care they receive. Dr. Joe, Jana, Kyle, Kaylee, and the entire team are compassionate, professional, and truly make us feel like family. Our dogs always receive exceptional care. Highly recommend! ??”

“Dr. Lauren is such a special Vet. She truly cares and wants the best for the animals in her care. So thankful for her kind and honest care of my sweet Molly girl.”

“Have been here multiple times with multiple of my pets. Always a wonderful experience. Doctors, technicians and receptionists are always knowledgeable, caring and compassionate. Thank you MedVet! ?”

“We have been coming to Carrollton vet with our dog since our old vet(s) retired, after we searched for years for another amazing private vet practice. Dr Algero is caring and knowledgeable. He is patient in explaining what he believes might be going on, the tests (if any) necessary, next steps, any meds he thinks might help, side effects, etc, and always a clear explanation of why and our options. Vets like Dr Algero are the best - they only care about what's best for your pet and work with you all the way. They are walk-in only, but they are clear about that and they let you know if there's a long wait (emergency ahead of you) or other factors. Their rates are very reasonable imo. I know they treat her well and compassionately when she goes to the back with them, which is important to us. His assistants (Nester & Jerry) are involved, always gentle and greet Belle so she's never balked at going back or being handled by them. They are prompt answering their phones, return calls when they say they will and Pam at the front desk always gets me whatever documentation I need when I ask.”

“What a WONDERFUL experience I had with my baby. That was even with a setback. I had my dog spaded at this facility by Dr. Jack Ferro. The staff was so very nice in every way possible. But the doctor was superb as well. Very professional and extreme bedside manner. My poor dog developed an infection and Dr. Jack was just amazing. I was so very upset when she developed an infection. But Dr. Jack stood there after hours to help me get her on the right track. Dr. Jack showed me his true professionalism and caring for my animal. I can’t thank Dr. Jack enough I just love him! He got my baby back up and running. I would HIGHLY ,HIGHLY recommend Dr. Jack. Thank you Dr. Jack for caring so very much not only for caring for my dog, but for taking care of me when I was so very upset.”

“This is the best MSAH clinic! I moved across town and tried going to one of the other clinics, but ended up coming back because Dr. Rene is amazing. He always takes the time to explain what’s going on, go through options and next steps, and I leave feeling informed and reassured. Highly recommend!”

“We’ve been coming to Lake Animal for 10 years with my cat. Dr. Kreider and Dr. Merriwether have provided excellent care for my anxious kitty and have helped us work through many illnesses and behavioral situations over the years. They are always right on the money with their recommendations and treatment plans. We trust them completely! We love that they know exactly who we are every time we call and are so genuinely excited to see Minnie. We also love the consistency in care. Most of the staff has been there since the beginning of our journey with Lake Animal. They are so caring and just a great Vet all around!”

“Dr Haydel is warm, kind and efficient. I appreciate the professional and sweet tech team. The front desk staff are thoughtful and considerate, too. I have a dog that is not comfortable around unfamiliars. They automatically schedule us for times when the clinic is likely to be low traffic. We stay in the car until they call us when they’re ready to see us. Such lovely people!”

“I have been going to this doctor for 40 years. She is spot on with all of my pets, Dr. Sagrera is the best holistic doctor you will ever find in this country. Not only does she heal your fur baby she is intuitive an empath and an Animal Communicator all rolled into one professional doctor. That has all the skills to heal your baby holistically. I recommend this doctor 1000% with all of my fur children, we love and appreciate all she does for us over the years. Chere Cormier.???”

“Very knowledgeable vets. Willing to work with you on expenses. All staff is friendly and loves animals. We live in Gentilly and make the drive cause our animals love them and they have not done us wrong on any treatment.”

“They have taken great care of my pets for almost 8 years. They are very good with my anxious dog. Well priced. Won't sell you procedures or meds your animals don't need. Keeps us updated on vaccinations so I don't have to think about it.

Great for continuing treatment of any of your pets conditions.”
