River City Veterinary Hospital

I’ve been taking my cats here for the past couple of years and am so happy I switched to this practice. I’ve seen multiple doctors here and am always happy with the service provided. Currently Dr. Ereio is my preferred vet just because he was so helpful when one of my cats had hyperthyroidism. He shared how he related because one of his cats had it in the past as well. However, I would recommend any of the vets that practice here. The entire staff is wonderful and their pricing is affordable/fair. Cannot recommend River City Vet enough.

I brought my cat Sebastian in to get a second opinion on whether or not he needs a dental cleaning because the Fan Vet gave me mixed answers the last couple of visits. I felt seen and heard for the first time at the vet and I just wanted to thank Dr. Ereio for that and everyone at River City Vet. I was more than impressed. The receptions and vet assistants were all very lovely and welcoming. Dr. Ereio went through my list of questions and concerns and put me at ease about my cats overall health. He spent an hour talking to me and actually explaining how River City works and what services they offer. Not to mention it was also the most comfortable I had ever seen Sebastian at the vet. He even let Dr. Ereio scrape the plaque off the sides of his teeth and I couldn’t believe he let him!! He even explained to me how to. For free—along with a dental kit! And he told me honestly that he did not feel that Sebastian needed a dental cleaning at the time, saving me thousands. You can tell they really care about animals and their clients. I am so grateful and just overjoyed to have found River City Vet!! It’s been weeks since my appointment but I haven’t been able to stop thinking about my experience and their kindness. Thank you River City Vet!! We are happy to have found you.

This office is amazing. Everyone here truly cares about your pet and what is best for them. They can always fit me in for a sick appointment and they'll answer my questions/concerns over the phone. I highly recommend bringing your pets to this office.

I cannot stress enough just how amazing RCVH is, but I’ll give it a go! Both of my pets were older when I first moved here, and Dr. Anthony and his staff showed nothing but excessive care, compassion, and love for them. They got to know them, appreciated their quirks, celebrated the wins, and felt the losses. I even received a hand written note after my cat passed from bladder cancer and it truly meant so much. They’re extremely attentive, make me feel prioritized, walk through all my questions, and carefully plan and explain treatments. They’ve also been able to save my 13 year old dog twice in 6 months — once after a mast cell tumor removal, the other after diagnosing her with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. She’s now doing better than ever, and every time we check-in Dr. Anthony makes a point to ask “How’s the miracle pup doing?” :) Their social media presence is also very fun, and they recently opened a sister business at their old salon for pet grooming…is there anything they can’t do?! Do yourself a favor and make sure your pet gets the best care here!

I have been to many vets in the RVA area as a former representative for a dachshund rescue group and I have been soo impressed with Dr. Anthony & Dr. Heather at River City Vet. So many area vets are owned by corporations now and seem to be in it for the money. I can tell that is 100% not the case with River City Vet. They are in for the animals. You can really tell they care! I know without a doubt my 4,15, & 17 year old doxies are in the best hands. I can not say enough good things about River City. I don't trust my dogs care to anyone else. As a petsitter/dog walker many times Ive had to email them with random questions and they've always gotten back to me in a matter of hours or sometimes even minutes. When ever I walk in the door the staff is always so welcoming and I'm treated like an old friend and my dogs as if they're their favorite pet! Their prices are comparable if not better than other area vets. If your looking for a vet in the area I highly suggest you use the team at River City Vet!
