They have now recommended that I bring my dog in 2 visits for his yearly vaccines because of his size (2.5kilo).. which has been the same for 3.5 years. $95 to walk in the door and will charge me again to bring him back. Altho the vet did say "I can give him all his shots today but it could KILL him" SERIOUSLY!!! & with a straight face. They also over charged for NEXGARD flea and tick treatment by $105.... I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS ANIMAL HOSPITAL TO ANYONE, EVER! THEY ARE ONLY ABOUT THE MONEY! I'm guessing they think that if you have a pet then you must have loads of money. SMFH

I have been taking my cats and dog to Richview for many years. The support staff are friendly and informative and Dr Portch and Dr Booth take the time to do a thorough exam and explanation of their recommendations. They always review an estimate of costs and work hard to provide affordable care. There are cheaper clinics out there but after trying a few over the years, I realize that you get what you pay for - Richview provides excellent care that is worth every penny.

This place is a cash grab. They tried to force X-rays on my dog, but when I got a second opinion they told me that was unnecessary. I was given the wrong instructions on how to administer my dog' s meds by a young staff member, and they did not apologize when I called to tell them (thank goodness I researched the medication online). Furthermore, they are quite rude at the front desk (carol).

Really clean open space. The staff is very nice and professional, always willing the help and go the extra mile. There is sometimes a small wait but that is becuase they do not rush their clients and address all of your concerns fully. They are very kind and skilled with handling my cats and dog. At first the recommendations can seem pricy but as they explain they always present what is the most ideal then will tailor the treatment plan to your needs. They always follow up on any concerns you might have and to ensure their recommendations are working be it medications, diet or learning how to brush teeth. I appreciate their free nutritonal consults with their technicans which have helped my cat lose weight. My pets have seen all of the vets there and I have had great experiences with each one. The best part about their multi-vet practice is if your pet is very sick the Doctors consult each other. That meant alot when my 2 year old cat got cancer. I feel comfortable to be me there.

They only care about your wallet, not your pet. They overcharge on everything and they order unnecessary tests. Avoid them, no mater house nice the place looks - it's a trap!

We have always taken our beloved family pet (Golden Retreiver 12 years old) to Richview. This clinc, its staff and its vets especially Dr.Portch, are very good at what they do. They care very much about the animals. They are so good handling animals and they have a very nice clean professional facility. The always our available by phone for advice and consultation and spend as much time with you as you need to feel comfortable. They involve the owners in everythign about they do and find out about the pets. Yes, they do push you on purchasing their products, petfoods, medications, wellness tests etc and yes Richview is incredibly expensive compared to other vet clinics we know of through friends, but we would never consider taking our pet anyplace else because we fully trust Richview and have had nothing but excellent experiences with them.

I went to this clinic a few times and each time I felt I was being gauged. The staff and facilities are good but they charge you an arm & a leg. It is a huge rip off. I paid about $385 just to have my cat checked and given a few shots. They tried to push unnecessary tests on me as well such as a stool test even though there were no signs of parasites or infections AND the cat is an indoor cat. They also tried to push their food on me which contained BHA and BHT which are known carcinogens. If you value your hard earned money don't take your pets here. There are many more affordable places out there that are not out to take advantage of you.
