I had stopped in this office a few times to have lost dogs scanned for microchips, and the techs were always very friendly and helpful (unlike other local vets I had stopped in). So when my own dog began acting painful in her hind end, I brought her here (I had previously used mobile clinics for shots). I brought my Keva in as a walk-in on a busy Thursday morning. I was seen fairly quickly considering the waiting room was full before I got there. The techs were kind and gentle with my dog, and listened intently to my concern... read more

Dr. Ireland has been my vet since 2004. My first dog developed diabetes and was a brittle diabetic. She had several close calls with pancreatitis and Dr. Ireland pulled her through. She lived 6 years as a severe diabetic and most diabetic dogs don’t live past a year with that diagnosis. Over the years, I’ve had many a special needs pet and all have received excellent care. The Clinic is very busy and everything stops if an emergency crops up. I don’t mind that because one of my pets has been the emergency many times.

We just move to the Lakeland area and picked another Vet, but after an emergency was needed, and this Vet was open on Saturday and said they would gladly take us. They took us and we LOVED everyone in the office and the Vet!!! We will no longer use the other Vet down the road! Also, our cat LOVED them!!! Highly recommend!!!

My cat got worse after seeing Dr. Anthony (Tony) Mutchler, who performed a procedure that is NOT RECOMMENDED everywhere else. A procedure that can lead to MORE complications down the road and one he didn’t BOTHER EXPLAINING TO ME. Will NEVER go here again. Will tell literally EVERYONE I KNOW WHO HAS PETS to not come here.

OK well this happened this past year. My chihuahua developed a terrible sounding cough and we were in need of a quick response to treat her. My regular vet was closed so we called around and Dr.Ireland seemed like our only option. We called and they said we cannot make an appointment but we could go there and put our name on a list and get in line. When we arrived we were told we could not wait in the waiting room because of Covid 19 so we had to wait outside until they called us and they took down my phone number. On this d... read more

I have waited 3 months to post this review and I’m still really upset about how my cat was treated there. DO NOT GO FOR WALK INS! They are very misleading about how walk ins work at the front desk and I ended up waiting 3 and half hours in my car with my dying cat after getting there right at open. The front desk refused to give me any details about how long the wait would be until I checked in at hour 3 crying because I had no idea when I was going to get help for my cat. And the only reason I took her here instead of an em... read more

We got our Golden puppy, Korben neutered at Cleveland Heights Animal Hospital and the picture is what a neuter is supposed to look like. Not like Wilson’s when we got his done at Dr. Irelan’s office July 2020. He started bleeding from the incision profusely so I took him back after 30 mins of being home. The staff said it was normal. Luckily, the bleeding stopped on it’s own, but I already knew the ENTIRE procedure was NOT normal from the moment I got him back. I’ve had to neuter many dogs in my lifetime and never had an exp... read more
