River Road Animal Hospital

We were lucky to find RIVER ROAD ANIMAL HOSPITAL last summer when we were in the area on vacation. Several months prior to our trip our 11yr. old lab injured her back leg while playing outside. She limped for awhile afterwards but seemed to be doing better when it was time to leave on our trip. However, midway through our travels we noticed that she could barely stand on her "bad leg" and was limping lots more. Luckily we were in the Willmington-Southport area and happened on "River Road" via the phone book and internet search. Thank goodness we did ...as we were truly impressed and thankful for the wonderful service, care, and professionalism of Dr. Travis and her staff! Our dog ended up needing surgery to repair her leg so we went ahead and did the surgery right then & there at RR not only to relieve the pain our dog was in --- but because we felt so confident and impressed w/ the immediate care we had received. The surgery and post-op treatment was so complete & detailed from start to finish with the entire staff being a part of our dog's recovery! River Road puts most Vet Offices to shame: the office is bright and cheerful - and welcoming, the staff is very friendly & helpful and Dr. Travis is amazing....with her compassion and bedside manner. And, she makes you feel like your pet is her most important patient! (Our dog even received laser treatment following surgery to help the healing....which certainly worked very well as we were on our way & heading home few days later! Thank you, Technician Brad! ) And, "thank you" RIVER ROAD for being there when we needed you. ~nsc
