Carolina Veterinary Specialists

I can't thank Dr. Bray and Dr. Mattney and their techs, enough for what they did for my girl. She spent a week with them for a FCE, spine stroke. She went in not being able to use her back end at all. They took wonderful care of her and answered all my questions. Explained everything to me, no matter if I asked the same thing over again. They are very caring and friendly. My girl has come a long way and can walk a little thanks to them. She still has a very long way to go, but she is much stronger than she was.

Today we had no choice but to put our precious Pitbull down. Ryder had chronic kidney disease and we had tried everything to make him better, but he became so sick in the night and our vet being closed we drove 45 minutes so he wouldn't have to suffer any longer than needed. We were treated with compassion from beginning to end. I have read some of the negative reviews left by others, and if that was your truth I am so sorry, but I can honestly say I'm thankful my sweet boy was in their loving hands as he went to heaven.

I’m updating my review to 5 stars after actually meeting with Dr. Simmerson. While the wait to be seen was still too long, over two months. Once she saw Ethan (My cat. Yes! He’s as ridiculous as he looks! Lol) & did an ultrasound—we got some answers as to why he’s exhibited some concerning symptoms. Dr. Simmerson was very knowledgeable, and he is now on medication that I’m praying will be effective for him. A lot of valuable education was provided that helps me understand my buddy’s health status been. Her tech was very helpful too! We’ll know the effectiveness of the medication hopefully during our one month post follow-up!

Toby and I spent several hours in the parking lot to avoid the lobby. The people were very accommodating and nice. The clinic did all the necessary tests and medicine for pain for Toby's arthritis. He has started his prescriptions. He is still old but he does move about much better.

Amazing place to take your pet. All of the staff were amazing. The neurologist Dr Bray kept us up to date on the care of our dog Lady during her 2 day stay with them. The staff even kept the toy car one of my sons left in their waiting room. Dr Bray was optimistic about her recovery but unfortunately after suffering another stroke a few days after coming home and becoming fully paralyzed as well as developing pneumonia, we had to make the tough decision to her down. Our 2 toddlers were with us and they gave us options if they wanted the boys to be there. The vet gave us as much time as we needed before she passed as well as after. While it was a sad occasion for meeting the staff, they were kind, considerate and took great care of our little Lady.
