Granite City Pet Hospital

Granite City Pet Hospital in St Cloud MN is an excellent place to take your four legged love one. They care about the pets that they treat, and respect you're felling you have for them.

I've been bringing my dog here for 11 years. (When I was married, dogs). I've never had a problem with them. They ask which tests I want performed and have never had anything done without my consent, which by the way would be illegal. I have him groomed here. When he was boarded here while I was in Florida for a family medical emergency they told me prior to the boarding what tests and vaccines would be administered. They are nothing less than helpful, professional, etc. The staff recognizes my dog and I as we walk in the door. They've had some of the staff working there for years. It is always clean in the waiting room area and the visit rooms. I've never had any issues or concerns with them and would highly recommend them!

I have been going to Granite City Vet for over 13 years. They diagnosed my dog when others couldn't and took excellent care of her till the end. All three of my cats and my dog go there. All get great care and Erin, the groomer, is fantastic! My son drives 45 minutes every week to take his dog to her as well! My only complaint is they aren't timely on appointment times, and I spend a lot of time waiting. But the CARE my girls get is top notch.

My dog broke his toe and needed to have a cast. I needed to bring him back every week or so to change the wrapping. The first one was great and he was walking on his foot the same day, but the rest of them he was in pain and you could see it. I brought him back to have them change it three times in a week. The vet tech came and talked to me and said that because of his small size sometimes the cast shifts. So I just let him suffer for the next five weeks. When he was finally able to get it taken off I didn't notice while I was in there, but he had a dime sized blister on his back leg. They obviously saw it while wrapping him, but never said anything. I wouldn't have been mad, happens to me sometimes. But they knowingly let him suffer. I will never bring him back, and told everyone I know. No one else has brought their pet there either.

I have brought my dogs here over the years and they keep getting worse. My last visit was for just a one night stay for two dogs in one kennel. Total bill $232.02 double charged for boarding, gave health exams, leptospirosis vaccine, did a fecal exam, and metronidazole medicine on the dogs without any of my consent. This seems to be common practice with these guys as last time I brought my dog in they ran extra tests and gave extra medicine without my approval, which in turn more then doubled my original bill.

My son has taken his dog there a few times. Neither times did they correctly diagnose the dog's issue. A week ago, my son's Schnauzer was urinating continuously even after being let out. Within 30 mins. he had another accident in the house. My son took his dog to Granite City Pet Hospital, and they charged him $200 to take tests he didn't authorize and put the dog on antibiotics. A week later, we were very concerned as there was no improvement on the dog. Today, my son took him to a different vet who was recommended by my local vet, and within 30 mins. and $60 he was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and the amount included his medication. A pill a day and he will be fine. Left untreated, who knows what would have happened. As my son is a college student, I paid for the $200 bill. Also, according to Granite City Pet Hospital, the results of the expensive tests they took without my son's knowledge came back saying his dog was fine. It took less than 10 mins. for the new vet to take a simple blood test to see the dog had hyperthyroidism. Check out another vet to take your precious animal to, my son will not go back there again. Our pets are a part of our family. I am not very happy with their service not to mention I feel like I threw away $200. A very pissed off mom here! cremmel
