Animal Hospitals near Horse Shoe

“BEST vet care we have ever had. So sad that they retired. We (especially Pepper) will miss them.“

“When I came home from work last night I found my dog in respiratory distress. We rushed her to western Carolina regional animal hospital. After some testing and hard discussions with the team we had to make the gut wrenching decision to let our girl go. The entire team was absolutely wonderful. Cinnamon and Dr. Z explained everything to us and never made us feel pressured to do anything we were not prepared to do. It was an awful situation, but I am thankful for their compassion.“

“I have no idea what I would do without these ladies and gents. They are the very best with my fur babies!“

“They took in our Daisy immediately, (she was in bad shape), and started working on our girl... they where angels working to save our angel! And save her they did! They gave us our girl back! Words cannot express our deepest gratitude but, thank you thank you, thank you!“

“AMAZING service Dr.Taylor is the BEST! would not trust anyone else with all 5 of my fur babies!“

“2 weeks ago our 15 year old dog tore her spleen. Sage got her in right away, diagnosed the problem, and operated to remove her spleen. She is now happy and healthy thanks to their very skilled surgeon, Dr. Julie Notestine and all of their wonderful and caring staff, who gave her the best possible care.“

“Dr. Bailey is hands down, the kindest, most sincere, Veternarian I have ever met!! She ALWAYS goes above and beyond to take care of my fur babies, even outside of the office. I am so thankful for her!! The Team is absolutely WONDERFUL too!“

“We have been patients at White Oak Veterinary Hospital for about four years now, and we truly can’t say enough good things about them.

The entire team is attentive, kind, and genuinely caring. You can feel that your pet matter the moment you walk in. They take their time, answer questions thoroughly, and never make you feel rushed.

Dr. Howland is incredibly detail-oriented, which we really appreciate. He explains things clearly and thoughtfully, and he speaks to our animals (and to us) with equal respect. That level of care and presence goes a long way.

We fully trust them with our pets and are so grateful to have found such a compassionate and thorough veterinary team.“

“I highly recommend Dr. Crouch and Western Carolina Veterinary Surgery. In September 2025, he did a TPLO surgery on my 1 1/2 year old golden retriever who had a 90% CCL tear in her left knee. We are on week 8 post op and she is doing terrific. The recovery from this surgery is intense and long - 6 weeks very quiet followed by 6 weeks of slowly building muscle back followed by 6 to 12 weeks of getting the dog ready for run-around freedom. Dr. Crouch who has done thousands of these surgeries explained everything in detail ahead of time so that a layman could understand, answered all my questions, and empathized with what the human is also going through. He and his team were available during off hours to answer those anxious questions that always seem to come up when the office is closed. I have felt very heard and understood which helped me to give my dog a calm presence so she could heal. She stayed overnight after her surgery which I believe is common with his practice for this surgery. TPLO surgery is not an easy recovery - it’s very long. But to get my pup back on all fours running around with dog friends, I’m fine with that. Highly recommend!“

“Doctor John was so kind and understanding! I will continue to use this vet office for all my animals!“

“My Chihuahua, Winky needed extensive dental surgery requiring a bone graft, this had to be completed by a dental surgeon out of state. Dr.Weaver was supportive and helpful in getting this referral for me at this very busy dental surgeons office within a month. Dr.Weaver may have saved my dogs life as she prevented a very bad outcome had this surgery not been done. She also put up with my many question's and consternation about this procedure.
I think the biggest support was her gift of listening.
Dr.Weaver has done the follow up exam and will continue to follow my dog, who is doing wonderfully.
Dr.Weaver is an excellent and caring Veterinarian. I cannot say enough about the expertise and caring that she and the wonderful staff have provided. I am in awe I found her and the wonderful folks in the office to provide such quality and care.“

“The Animal Care Clinic and it's staff and doctor are dedicated to making sure animals live happy and healthy. I highly recommend them to all my friends.“

“This is the only place my pets will go absolutely ? the best care an people ❤️“
