I brought one of my two cats here for a second opinion. I had had her twice to a vet for checkups as she was a recent rescue who had some symptons that we were concerned with. At both visits she was given an antibiotic injection as well as pain medicine. Never was it suggested that any tests be done, they just treated the symptons, though I had asked about a blood test to find out what was ailing her. The vet that I saw here, listened patiently while I described my concerns especially with the multiple issues that my cat... read more

I recently had to have my cat put to sleep and this was the most kind and caring vet's office I have ever been to. The vet tech and the vet were both compassionate and were concerned with both my family and my cat. It showed that they knew that she was a part of her family and her passing would be difficult. As far as the office itself, it was clean, everyone was nice and helpful and I was very impressed with the facility.

The vets at Riverbank have always been the ones to care for my animals, even when I have lived hours from Kinston...it's been worth the drive for the care and attention that they have given to my animals. Their costs have always remained low in comparison to the treatment that my furry family members have received! Thank you Dr. Randall & Dr. Garren!!

I've normally had good experiences here, but today was unacceptable. The environment was chaotic, and the staff were not helpful. A staff member called our dog's name, told us to weigh him, then walked away without assistance. My husband and I are allergic to cats and were already having reactions--we had been sitting outside because of this--but no one gave us guidance or told us to step back out once she returned and took our dog without explaining anything. Overall, the experience was confusing, stressful, and lacked ba... read more

I'm going to say this with all honesty. I had 10 dogs I have 9 now. i sent my precious baby in for a check up and she came home in a box LITERALLY! my heart is broken and this is not fake! I dont know what happened I wasn't there but my baby went in breathing and left out not breathing. Those are facts! They have something against bullies and pit bulls. They were rude and inconsiderate when I spoke with them. I'm done with them. AT YOUR OWN RISK! Send a prayer for my baby Amore please

The worst vet I've ever been too! Beware you'll spend money and get no results. If I could give them a ZERO star, I would

DO NOT BRING YOUR ANIMALS HERE!!!! I brought my dog in for simple dental work and they almost performed a surgery on her meant for another dog. They didn't realize their mistake until after they had shaved her down and prepped her for surgery. They claimed there was another dog with her exact name and looked exactly like her and that is how they made the mistake...my dog is a mutt with very distinct markings. They lied to me to try to cover for themselves, the doctor didn't even have the courtesy to apologize to me, and they... read more

Took my Doberman there for ear cropping . Look like they used shears to do it with. Went to pick him up, they brought him to me still bleeding and advised not to cover them until the next day just hold pressure until the bleeding stopped . Charged me $638.00 and had to take him to "Nash Animal Hospital " when they fixed Riverbanks screwup ! Lawyer said I could file but I'm not that type of person !
