VetMed Animal Health

A close friend of mine used to work with Dr Gables, and told me she would never want to work with another vet. I switched from Banfield after many years. I got tired of the revolving door of doctors there. I made the right choice! I have an older cat that went thru a lot this past spring and she is better than ever! Dr Gables explains everything very well and makes it fun and easy to understand. He and his staff took such good care of her and my other cats!

I would NOT recommend. Go somewhere else (although Mt. Juliet options as a whole are lacking, so good luck.) Never mind the office is horribly outdated and uncomfortable, the quality of care is outdated and uncomfortable, too. Despite Nashville being the epicenter of pet allergies (something I learned when we moved there), this vet office didn't carry allergy shots until I inquired (why am I the one introducing pet care options to the vet? shouldn't it be the other way around?). I repeatedly had difficulty following the vet's train of thought as he was describing things to me (why is nothing ever in writing? why aren't there diagrams of dog anatomy to follow along with as the barrage of information is being unloaded onto the pet parent, who is probably a little overwhelmed and definitely not as versed in medical dog talk and trying to manage the pet who HATES being there and is frantic to leave the small room?) They prescribed multiple pills to be taken multiple times per day every time anything happened, even though one-and-done antibiotic injections exist in the world. The vet techs were friendly and I believe they care about animals, but they also missed things. Just one example: we had our rescue dog's teeth cleaned and VetMed said there was no reason to do any extractions, despite our specific concerns and questions about it. Now here we are eight months later at a new vet in a new state and this same pup has to have multiple teeth pulled because they are infected and rotting, which did not just happen in the past eight months. VetMed missed it, and our pup has been suffering since then because of it. Another example of why it feels like they either don't know better or simply don't care: When our other dog crossed over, we invested in a private service to come assist with his transition at our house. Despite the service alerting VetMed, nobody from the practice reached out to acknowledge Simon's passing. Past vets have sent handwritten notes of condolence or called with their sympathies. That sealed the deal for me - this place just doesn't get it.

They got my cat in quick! Had to get her spayed she was in and out the same day. To get me in so quick and do such a great job their price was extremely affordable highly recommended.

All my babies LOVE Dr Gables and Megan! Everyone here is fabulous. Highly recommend them!

The most fantastic and caring people work here! We have been put through the ringer in the past 6 months with two sick dogs that we've had to put down. They made sure to explain everything we needed to know about their conditions, EVERY SINGLE OPTION we had, and respected our decision always. We truly appreciate the comfort your team provided to us and our four legged babies. You guys made two very difficult days bearable. Will never leave this vet!
