“Dr. Bates is the best vet in the Athens area. I switched to Dr. Bates from another local vet who did not know my dog or me after 10 years. Dr. Bates has come to know my dog and has provided spectacular care and consultation as she has aged. She is now 13, and Dr. Bates continues to steer us in the best possible direction for my dog’s health and well-being, making sure we are able to make the most of whatever time she has left. You can tell that he genuinely cares about the animals he treats, as well as the owners as people. I would recommend Dr. Bates to anyone.“
“Dr. Mathias is very warm and truly loves your pet. She has gone above and beyond so many times for my dogs and cats as well as my extended family's pets. And the staff have always been helpful and attentive.“
“Great experience, even though it was bad news about my horse. I would use them again for all my horses.“
“Dr. Bangle was a classmate of mine at UGA's Veterinary College. Spending four years learning/working/studying with someone can give one a pretty good impression of who someone 'is'. Dr. Bangle was one of our class's dedicated & hard-working students and that has carried over into his professional practice. I would (& have) trust him with my own pets. He's also simply a very nice person. Honest & thoughful.“
“Dr. Bangle & Dr. Stortz have been my vet (dogs) since 2006. They are both fantastic- knowledgeable, thorough, kind to patients and their humans. My current dog Denali was a rescue who had never been vetted until I took him in so he is very skittish and scared during treatments. The staff here always work to calm him and get us in and out timely. Love my vets?“
