Creature Comforts Veterinary Service

First of all I would like to say all the Doctors in this office are great. Dr Dan and Dr Karin are two awesome vets. Not only did they save my dogs life once but they saved her life more then once and I am eternally greatful to them. My dog was near dead and was diagnosed with Anemia with a blood transfusion and medication and the medical team working so hard to save Mistys life I thank them enough for all that they did for me. Misty is improving daily and it’s all because of the great staff at Creature Comforts Veterinary Services..

I was surpised to see such a low rating here for CC. I have been taking my pug here for 12 years, since she was 6 weeks old. She had a congenital hipdisorder fixed at 6 months by Dr Karen who was trained in orthopedics. They recently found a mass in her chest while she was there for a few days. Dr Abbey was truthful and so kind. We went to visiting hours and the staff was informative and caring and would do anything to make us feel comfortable. The support staffers are always nice and efficient. Cost of care is lower than the vet in Pen Argyl who is closer to me. Since they are open ²⁴⁄₇ they will help you when you need it. I did not give CC a 5 because it is poorly set up with small lobby, waiting room and exam rooms. It is not aesthetically pleasing and you sure can tell they have been treating animals constantly. The chaos reminds me of Noah’s Ark or Dr Doolittle though.
PS. The pug is alive and well!

There is NOTHING comforting about Creature Comforts! Its a horrible vet and its horribly expensive even on vet standards. They charge 700 dollars for a spay. That’s nearly a thousand dollars.
Plus when we took a feral cat there to be treated, they charged us for a neuter, saying they went ahead and neutered him. A year later we had to take him to another vet and guess what? They NEVER neutered him!
When in their waiting room, an elderly dog was taken back to get his nails clipped. The poor dog came out and his claws were bleeding all over the waiting room floor. The staff wouldn’t clean up the blood and a person in the waiting room had to.
Plus a cat is always wandering around the waiting room and that can be a problem for people with dogs who come in. Also the staff are very rude and even gossip in the back as I’ve seen them.
If you love your pet DON’T go there! It’s a HORRIBLE place with poorly trained staff and its also a money racket. Also there were things that went on that made me question how these vets ever got their licenses.

In response to the other review, i have had an entirely positive experience with Creature Comforts. My cats have been patients of Creature Comforts for about three or four years. My old beloved cat did pass there, but it seems like he had cancer & Creature Comforts provided him with good and kind care during the final stages.
My current cats go To CC. Dr. Dan fixed my male cat’s Stomatitis. The poor boy could barely eat anything before surgery as the disease kept his gums infected. After surgery, he’s goofy, playful and a bit chubby. So he’s healed. thanks to Dr. Dan!!!
Dr. Abby has been working with my sickly little cat boy Teddy. Dr. Abby is very patient & sweet. I’m confident that she will get Teddy (who came from a hoarding situation) in good shape.
A few notes about CC. There is a little cat named Dumpette who was «dumped» by some cruel people into a dumpster. Creature Comforts accepted her as a potential adoption csndidate, but she has health problems. She requires special medical care and now lives at CC. She is the semi-​official host of the business. She’s a real sweetly.
It’s a bit crazy sometimes as the building’s physical layout (former post office) isn’t ideal for a vet (and they are extremely busy). Its a basic vet in that regard-​not a spa with high overhead and higher fees. It’s just a active vet business and being a 24 hour per day hospital in itself creates some chaos.
Dr. Karen is the owner and very nice. She also has a great sense of humor. All of the vets, techs, and staff have been uniformly kind. The best part-​besides excellent care for my animals-​is that prices are very, very, reasonable. Love y’all!!!

If you love your pet, you will not take them here! I went there on a Saturday evening when my dog was having problems. First thing I notice was the horrific smell of urine, next, cats roaming through out the waiting room, without owners. I waited forever, which wouldn’t have been a problem, but when the vet finally saw my dog; she prescribed a medicine which he had a bad reaction to in the past. When I asked her to give him a different medicine she refused and began yelling at me, after I explained myself again, and she would not back down, I left. The following Monday, I took my dog to my vet; she told me that I had done right in not giving that medicine to him, and that with that medicine he could have died. Also since I went as an emergency patient all she had to do was stabilize him, which he was. DO NOT GO TO CREATURE COMFORTS!
