Briarlake Animal Hospital

I recently took my cat to Briarlake for a check-up, and we will definitely be continuing her care here. Everyone was friendly, professional, and kind, and Dr. Earl was patient, both with my questions and with my cat’s need to explore every inch of the exam room! We did have to wait 10-15 minutes in the waiting room (the only reason for 4 stars rather than 5), which was a small price to pay for such a positive experience.

Briarlake was recommended to me by my trainer and I am so happy with our first visit. My rescue is super fear reactive so we had a consultation. The energy there is so calm and welcoming, and even my nervous wreck dog was less obnoxious. We got taken back very quickly. They are so accommodating and work with you. Laura (I hope) was the absolute best when she took his info. Seriously she was awesome and really put me at ease. Dr Hochel took time to explain everything for me and discussed options, and then worked within Charlie’s nervousness to give him a quick exam. They were both so wonderful with him. The bill was extremely reasonable, even with medication on. Briarlake is worth the drive for this vet, and I’m so glad to have them in our corner.

I just moved from Ohio to Georgia and was obviously nervous finding a new vet. We got to our appointment on time and were taken back within 5 minutes of arriving and left within 45 minutes even though my dog needed multiple vaccinations. They were so sweet from the moment we entered and gave my dog frozen peanut butter for her to lick while getting shots and she loved it and was so comfortable. We are excited to find a new vet that is close and affordable!

Such great care! My 9yo dog had a UTI for 2 months and our vet was mostly unresponsive and seemingly unconcerned. When we arrived at Briarlake the vet tech and veterinarian took full histories, reviewed our previous care, and collaborated on a plan. Their rates are incredibly reasonable. And we received an email summary of our visit and discussion. Then a follow up call to discuss test results and collaborate on the next part of the care plan. I am so very relieved to have the support and expertise in caring for our dog!

Love all the vets and staff here! They take such good care of our three rescues. They are kind and patient and really know them in a short time. This is a fear-free certified practice too if you’ve got anxious babies. Highly recommend!
