Animal Medical Center Of Hattiesburg Hattiesburg, Louisiana

I have two dogs and I wouldn't take them anywhere else, the staff is awesome and take such good care of the animals. Anytime we have taken them with an issue they are always quick to get my pets in to see the vet and are always very professional.

They don’t care about your pet unless you rich..let me just say that..

Veterinary visits are incredibly over priced in comparison to competing veterinary practices. Usually about 2-3x more expensive when compared to southern pines in specific. The only upside is that they are open 24/7 for emergency. Dr. Mayfield was great and genuinely had passion for helping us in the situation but the pricing for vet visits that arent emergencies are financially draining. I spent around 1500$ on 3 visits alone that would have cost me a fraction of what it would have cost at Southern Pines Veterinary for the same examinations. Each time we had went there was never a definite answer on what was causing our cat to be sick and were told to keep coming back causing each consecutive which had drained my savings account for no resolution.

Highly NOT RECOMMENDED!!! My Bella 2 month old yorkie got sick over weekend ..Upon arrival I had to sit in car outside due to no rooms being available and my poor Bella had to wait in car with me .. The nurses and doctors was so worried about payment first then to even get my puppy any fluids or run IV on my baby ! Finally getting a room doctor comes in evaluate her and tell me what’s wrong with Bella so instead him seeing she was dehydrated you’d think he was immediately try to give Bella some water or any fluids instead we sat in room 6 hours without any treatment, water, ANYTHING!!! Bella was bloody and so sick she didn’t even respond to me calling her anymore! My poor Bella died 6:48pm 1/1/21 ! The first photo is Bella healthy n enjoying riding with mommy n the second and last photo is Bella DEAD at the clinic without any fluids for 6 hours there ! My Bella is GONE I’m so hurt and heartbroken because I came there for help and NO ONE SEEMED to cared like she was just another $ to them ! MY first n LAST ever taking my future pets to ANIMAL MEDICAL CENTER IN HATTIESBURG!!!! VERY HEARTLESS ! R.I.H Mommy Bell

If you go to another vet and they can't tell you what is wrong with your pet, please go see Dr. Morris or other vets at AMC. They have the equipment that other clinics don't have. They can give you the answers you need for you baby.

I have a 3 year old doggo. They did so much for my boy. They did an intricate surgery to remove a mass in my Murphys abdomen which is incredibly rare for a dog of his age. Unfortunately Murphys outlook is not good. The mass was cancerous. This was some of the most difficult news to hear. Evey single doctor that worked on or with my boy was so kind and loving towards him even when he was being bad because he was in pain. They gave me 3-6 more months with my baby by performing this life saving surgery. I am so grateful, but it wasn't their services I was impressed with, which were beyond impressive, but their kindness. Upon delivering the news, Dr. Mayfield reassured me that I am a good dog mom and that Murphy is a good dog. It broke my heart but made me so happy and grateful. That kindness will never be forgotten. Those words will stay with me forever. Thank you (the entire staff) for everything you do. Murphy is grateful to live out the rest of his days comfortably at home. Update - Unfortunately Murphy passed due to his cancer just 3 short months after his life saving surgery. Im so thankful murphy passed surrounded by love with his head in my lap at the animal medical center with his favorite vet, Dr.Mayfield, by his side as well. I'm so thankful he was able to live a normal and happy life for those few months with us. Again, I'll always remember the quality of care my boy received and the infinite kindness of the staff.

Great people who take good care of our dog. Dr. Mayfield and staff are very informative and thorough.

We have taken our dogs here since they were puppies and still receiving the best of care. We absolutely would recommend their service to all animal lovers.

Really terrible place. Go anywhere else. Everyone is talking at the top of their voices, they have no regard for the animal’s well-being or state of mind, and they try to up-sell you at every opportunity. They even have a credit card machine in each exam room. And on the walls they have nothing about animals, just egotistical things about “Dr” Calhoun, like pictures of him at a Packer’s game and a scorecard from some great golf game he played. It’s repulsive. Not to mention according to his bio he doesn’t even have any pets. I’m not sure he even likes animals, just the money their caregivers have. Avoid this place at all costs. When I took my cat Luna there because her real doctor’s office was closed, they basically submitted her to torture when, in hindsight I now know, if they had been decent people, they would have told me to put her to sleep and let her pass. And they have no board certified specialists there, so don’t fall for anything. Better yet, just avoid this place. I recommend Town and Country on Gravel Pit Road. They actually care about animals snd don’t charge a fortune. It makes me literally sick to my stomach what happened to my beloved Luna there during her last days. They also said they would email me her x-rays and never did. They pray on people’s bonds with their animals to take their money. Really bad.

Have had a good experience.

I hate to leave bad reviews. But why cut all my dog’s hair off? I don’t understand these groomers that do this. Especially when you have a detailed conversation about the grooming visit and specifically say not to cut it off! I tried to get the Rationale and received no response.

Dr. Mayfield saved my dog's life

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS CLINIC ❤️ my baby was hit by a car which resulted in lots of heartache for me, surgery & a hospital stay for my girl, piper. they took excellent care of her, answered every question I had, checked on her for me anytime I called to see how she was, day or night. I probably drove them nuts with my worry and phone calls. and to Taylor (a tech I believe) is ABSOLUTELY amazing and the sweetest, kindest soul, thank you for assuring me every time we talked that my baby was in good hands. ❤️ a HUGE HUGE thank you to the entire clinic, every tech and dr, who made this so reassuring for me. I cannot thank all of you enough. I cried and cried to these ladies & every last one of them made sure that I knew my baby was in great hands. from crying about the financial part, to piper being my bestfriend for almost 6 years. they saved my bestfriends life and I cannot thank you guys enough. ????❤️

My experience was not a good one actually it was the worst experience of my entire life now that I know the facts after seeing a video that I was very fortunate to be able to see because now I know The many things I assume before we’re not true but I also know one thing is true I will not give any details as this is now from a professional and respectful perspective there are many good doctors and many good nurses in this profession unfortunately there are also some bad doctors and bad nurses in this profession just as any profession. My dog Kobe who is only four years old and in peak physical condition was brought in for what I thought was accidental poisoning or intentional poisoning I’m not sure I will never know he died over nine hours later Suddenly unexpectedly from an unknown cause that none of us will ever know for sure unless someone explains it as it should be explained as I never was. My dog Kobe has never had any medical issues before moving here. Just weeks ago we resided in Southern California and Kobe was already registered service dog and was going through several training programs. Kobe had one of the best doctors in Southern California his name is Dr. Peter Heinen from Palm springs animal hospital at 4771 Palm Canyon Highway in Palm Springs. Dr. Heinen is the perfect model for doctor of veterinary medicine. If I were to call him and tell him that Kobe died suddenly unexpectedly of an unknown cause which was somehow speculated as to be an underlying heart condition. Dr. Heinen would immediately have several questions and if He knew who Kobe‘s doctor was he would’ve already spoken with him because Kobe was not only Dr. Heinens patient but he was his friend. Dr. Heinen was at my side in my house in my own living room as my 16 year old Doberman named Pepper was taking her last breath‘s with the assistance of this kind professional who has agreed for many years that when the time came he would do exactly what he was doing at that very moment. He was treating her with the best care possible from beginning till the end and even after that. When he left with my pepper I was 100% positive that he did everything he could every moment he was with her during those many years and even that moment when he brought her out to his car to take her back to his office and begin with the final procedure. I know Kobe would still be alive if we never left SoCal. I can also wish that Dr. Heinen was working for this clinic when we arrived on Tuesday because I know without a doubt that Kobe would still be alive. Dr Heinen had the type of professional relationship with his staff that goes above and beyond any standards I have seen since then. There is a bond of trust between the nurses and the doctors in his office at hisfacility that cannot be compromised. His employees do not depend on reviews or highly priced admissions in fact they don’t even mention a bill until after the procedure, unless requested. At his office when you talk to him or his staff there is without a doubt, I’ll true sincerity, honesty and commitment. He was at my side with my first dog pepper and I know he would’ve been at my side with Kobe if the time was meant on Tuesday. Instead, I saw the Doctor Who handled Kobe at this clinic, standing over him with a nurse looking down at Him as he took his last breaths. They waited without helping or showing any gesture of concern. I watched him casually walk over to his desk and begin the report before calling me. Between 441 and 444 my Kobe was administered a routine procedure along with two Dogs before him. This procedure was seconds before one dog had seizure and Kobe’s heart stopped. I noticed a bond between Doc. and Nurse that makes me ill. Kobe’s real Doctor would have prevented this. Just days before no one would have imagined the that the bond Kobe and I shared would be torn apart so indecently. I was outside in my car and I wasn’t there with him when he needed me. But I did immediately run in and fall down at his side and loose everything I needed and loved. No recovery possible.

I would like to say over the last 5-6 years it has been so reassuring to have a group of Veterinarians and professional staff such as Taylor and Caleb to care for my pets. Accidents and sickness happens to pets at all hours of the day and night. We have had pets fall off furniture injuring their back like Lily Thank you Dr. Hennessey for helping her, Step was septic with diarrhea and obstruction in the ICU needing an endoscopy on a Sunday Thank you Dr. Mayfield III for coming on Sunday to scope him and Dr Prevost for saving Steppenwolf on Saturday night when we arrived Zydeco my Husky got attacked by a Pit Bull with major injury to her leg wonderful care of the leg and treatment of a bowel obstruction after we think she ate her IV wrap, a 10 pm run to ER for Zydeco once again with diarrhea and dehydration 8 pound weight loss while at boarded training facility the trainers brought her while I was in a Houston Hospital and she received rapid quality, compassionate, care without delay and in any ED you know that rapid triage and treatment can make the difference between life and death. Grooming of my small dogs with Ms Brenda superb, when we go on a trip I never worry a minute when my babies are boarding because I know they are well cared for. There is a lot to appreciate about this Vet Hospital knowledgeable staff, cutting edge equipment and ability to treat in an emergency without delay, compassionate care, great communication, Vets who listen and do rounding everyday on you pet and treatment plan updated , 24 hour staff to administer medications or alert Vet of changes in animals health status. Thank you

I have been using Animal Medical Center since 1984 and am so thankful for them being there for me anytime I need them, day or night. I took my dogs to two other vets once and they came back home with problems. So I never will trust anyone with my dogs again except Animal Medical Center. All of the doctors there are great! They are professional, knowlegable and very friendly and caring there.

They have taken excellent care of my dogs. One of them had to have a c-section after birthing 3 puppies, they were able to save the other 3 that were stuck in her.

Love all the staff there! They are wonderful and treat your pet like it's theirs!

I was sharing my story with someone else tonight and decided to post it here also. Here’s my story as to why I say NOT animal medical center. They told me my dog (who was a stray) tested a high positive for heart worms, devastated I started her on the heart worm treatment, which she almost died from a week into it because they had her dosage too high. When I comforted them about it, they showed me the chart the go off of, I believe she was a pound over the weight limit that put her in the bigger weight class for a higher dose. Then they also rounded UP the dosage, that was already the wrong dosage for her meaning she was getting over double what she needed. Her liver was shutting down because of this and she had become incoherent when I rushed her to a different vet office who saved her life. They also didn’t want to give me her records at first and didn’t until I went back up there and demanded them after realizing that they legally had to. She was later tested at Holland where she was by some miracle heart worm free and has been ever since. Remember they told me she was a high positive, because of that I don’t believe she ever had them. To this day I think they lied to me about it. A similar over dose situation happened to my coworkers dog too after they prescribed her dog too much. My dog is my child. This happened in 2017 but I still can’t say enough bad things about animal medical center after that and hope that our story can help save another fur baby.

Animal Medical Center has been my veterinary service since 2015. It is an excellent facility - in some respects providing the best medical care I've ever had for my dogs. And I've been a dog owner for 58 years. The staff is sensitive, warm and caring. The doctors who have treated my four dogs are never too busy to explain in detail anything I may have concerns about or need to know. The premises is spotless and well appointed. Most importantly, they help my fur babies be well and happy. Three different times over the winter holidays I boarded my two tiny geriatric dogs at Animal Medical Center for ten-day spans. I was anxious, knowing how frail they were, boarding them that first year. But the attention and care provided my babies were top notch. If anything came up, or the vets observed something they thought I might want to discuss, they promptly called me. Even though it is a fairly large facility with more staff and patients than I can fathom, they still remember one of my senior dogs even though it's been years since he crossed the Rainbow Bridge. They may not always recognize me at first, but when I mention Murphy, that changes instantly. Their faces light up, and they tell me once again that he was one of their favorite patients. They talk of things that were unique to him - his size and color, his likes and dislikes, and his personality. So many things about Animal Medical Center of Hattiesburg deserve praise, too many to address them all. I'll just leave this here: these folks have earned my highest regard, and I would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone. Just go. They're that good.

We had to take 2 if our babies there. One in April to remove a tumor. Which Dr. MAYFIELD successfully did and she is back to her happy self. And recently if we would not have taken our Rockyboy there we would have lost him. The Doctors in this clinic are amazing. They treated our babies just like we would be treated in a hospital. Around the clock care and go to great lenghts to save our fur kids. They understand that these babies are our family. Even the ladies at the front desk and the Vet techs are just so sweet and so helpful. Also they wil call you everyday with and update and you can visit your pet while in their care. Thank you so much Dr. Morris and Dr. Mayfield for saving our boy. We are so grateful to you guys.

Love the kind, patient attention given to my cockatiel, Buddy by the staff and Dr. Mayfield Jr. I trust they will always do right by my pet. Thanks Animal Medical Center!!♡♡♡♡

I’m only giving one star because one of the technicians was very helpful. If I could put zero, I would. We have a Great Dane puppy named moose brought in with suspected Parvo and worms. She wouldn’t eat or drink and was vomiting. She was obviously dehydrated and lethargic. They took her to the back room and led us into a private room. After about 45 minutes, the doctor came in and told us her diagnosis. He kept calling her a chocolate lab and relating her diagnosis to her breed, so it was evident that he did not even care to look at her information put on the registration papers. Another 15 minutes passed and the brought her in the room with us. She had not received and fluids or medications to help. She had been sitting there in the back with us in a room she was able to be in, sick and alone for an hour. After two and a half hours of being there with no actual care given to our dog, they brought in a price estimate of her care cost. It would be more than $2000 to leave her there for one night. At home care was another option at $700 which was more in our budget. They gave us multiple medications that must be mixed with food or water which had us confused since she refused to eat or drink anything. At least pills you can pick up off the floor and force them to swallow. We just felt they did not take her sickness into consideration when giving this prescription. The next day, I called and asked about this and received an attitude similar to “well of course she is gonna throw it up. She has parvo.” This is obviously not the point of the call. I was worried she wasn’t getting her needed medications and wanted advice, but they did not care one bit. We have another puppy that also got sick. We took him to their sister clinic in Petal and they kept him overnight and had him home and better for less than $1000. We took Moose there and they kept her overnight and most of the next day for only $500. And she has actually shown improvement. We will never be back or recommend this place. It is all about the money for them and not about the animals.

Very professional with my Katie and feel comfortable leaving her there for medical care.

They took great care of Elsa and delivered 10 English Bulldog Puppies by c-section.

Our pets have received excellent care here! I highly recommend Animal Medical Center!????

My dachshund has IVDD and when he started dragging a toe Saturday night, I was devastated. Where I lived previously, when he had a disk issue, I would have to drive him 2 hours to the state vet school. I was so happy to find that AMC has the equipment to do back surgery right here. I also have a cat, who after a surgery in another state, has nerve damage. The vet who preformed the surgery was recommending amputation, but AMC offered another option of fusing his hock joint. For the medical expertise alone, I would highly recommend AMC. Fortunately, they also provide some of the kindest, most caring staff I have ever worked with and a 24-hour call service that means there is ALWAYS someone who can answer a question or just reassure me that whatever I'm worried about is normal. AMC is worth every penny to me and I trust them to help my pets live their best lives.

Honestly I wouldn't suggest this vet at all, even during an emergency situation I'd suggest 'Emergency Vets' on Fairfield Drive, who I've had great experiences with before. While this vet has a nice facility, the prices are legal robbery, even during a non emergency situation. I came in requesting a health certificate for a dog I was flying with. They wanted to charge me $204 for the certificate and $70 for the exam. I knew there was no way that it could really be that much so I went somewhere else (which I will leave a positive review for because they were super accommodating and $15 for the health certificate). Yup, almost $190 cheaper. There is zero excuse for that much of a price disparity on a simple health certificate. I'm only giving two stars because this place took me pretty quickly and the staff was friendly, but there is no way I'd ever return. I knew it was an expensive vet but never again.

All of my animals have been patients of Animal Medical Center for over 15 years! I trust them completely with my babies and they have all received excellent care. From the techs to the vets, they are extremely knowledgeable and compassionate in caring for your animals. Dr. Patrolia has been instrumental in caring for my one with a heart condition and I wouldn’t want anyone else taking care of her!!

Excellent vet care and boarding facility. All the staff is kind and professional. Very clean area. I would highly recommend for any of your vet needs. They take great care of my 2 dogs!
