Animal Hospital of Lubbock: Blaylock Janel DVM

Jul 2024

Animal Hospital Lubbock is one of the worst places you can take your pet. Our lab was sick one day and my husband took him into this hospital and they refused to see him because he wasn't registered with the hospital Perhaps put that on your website or something, but it's a waste of time . They charge him $80 too. It's a very big disappointment when you have an emergency with your dog, but this animal hospital Lubbock is horrible, We took our lives elsewhere and we don't recommend coming to animal hospital Lubbock The entire place smells too.

Let me preface this review by stating that my senior dog, Sugar, hurt her hind leg playing with my Sister's rambunctious puppy, while I was travelling. Sis, did not have a car to get Sugar to a vet right away, so I took to yelp to find a reputable place to take her as soon I got back in town 2 days later. In the meantime, my Sister did her best to brace the leg, in case it was broken and made Sugar a comfortable as possible. I get home and take Sugar to her appointment with Dr. Linn. She takes one look at the leg, which his a little swollen, and states that she has no problem taking an X-ray of the leg, but to save me some money, she refers me to the Live Oak Animal Hospital down the road, since her in house orthopedic vet is actually on vacation. She basically did not want to charge me for an X-ray if it was possibly broken and there was no one that specialized in broken bones there to really help. She gave me the number to Live Oaks and explained that they were usually pretty busy but because they were a larger capacity animal hospital, with more orthopedic specialists on hand, they would be better equipped to help. Dr. Linn and her staff did not even charge me for the consult so that impressed me that they were not out to do a quick cash grab. I would certainly go back to this office again for regular vet needs for Sugar since they were so kind and empathetic.

We used this vet when we moved to Lubbock based on a recommendation from a friend. They are a basic, old-school vet. Lobby smells like urine and excrement, and is often crowded. Trying to get in touch with them first thing in the morning is often very difficult. Last time we were there, we had taken our dog in to get a check up and ask a bit about his diet. The guy seemed annoyed by our dog and questions, and was rather rude about the breed, in general, with his comments. We were pretty surprised by all of this, but we're even more surprised to learn that the bill for asking some questions was $90! The vet didn't even examine him. When I asked why it was so much, they could not give me an answer. We found another vet and will not be back.
