I've been bringing my own dogs and dogs from rescue to CVRC for 10 years. Dr. Rissetto - oncologist - is the BEST! Dr. Rissetto is so good about communicating - she texted late last night to let us know lab results.

My overall experience was so amazing! Every staff member including the doctor was so attentive to my dog and made us feel so comfortable. We hardly had to wait and were able to check in on the phone ahead of time. I wish they provided normal vet services, that's how much I loved them! Providing my dog and I with a reasonable care plan.

There are not enough nice words to describe these folks. Let me set the scene: the Monday night before Hurricane Ian. One of our babies started to bloat and was in obvious distress. Our vet referred us out to these folks. The did some minor testing and found out Willow's bloating was actually blood. We had already done some reading and knew what was coming. Either a really expensive bill and only a few extra months, or to say goodbye. They gave us all the time in the world to make a decision. We called our daughter that's i... read more

In the last few months, my dad and my sister have both brought their pets to Charleston Vet in emergency situations and had nothing but amazing experiences. I knew I could trust their judgement. It was 10pm on the Friday beginning Labor Day Weekend.. My pup, Dewey (15lbs) and the other pup (100lb) collided.. my little Dewey seemed as if he had gotten a concussion. He was stumbling, breathing heavily, his body went limp, whining, tongue out the side of his mouth, and couldn't keep his eyes open; I was an absolute wreck, to sa... read more

Excellent staff and doctors. Highly recommend them. Our dog was terminally ill. They also told us about Dr. Hillary Evans and her Dignity Bridge. She was wonderful

Very efficient and animal-friendly center. They treat their patients with care and love. They did surgery on my puppy and were very thorough in explaining care and treatment at home. Sent my baby home quickly with all necessary repairs.

Everyone is so very helpful, kind, and caring. Knowing their patients' people are under stress because our beloved fur-babies are sick, we're not always at our best when they see us, but they remain kind and compassionate and pleasant. That's based both on my experience with the staff and what I've observed in visits there both recently and in the past. Considered many options and gave choices in how to proceed with treatment and/or diagnosis.
