Edinburgh Animal Hospital

I have been going to this vet with all of the dogs I have had. Their staff is very competent and considerate as well as knowledgeable about my pets. I would not go anywhere else. They are the very best!

Our beloved dog Grace had a history of mast cell tumors and Dr. Campbell did the first surgery. Grace was their patient for about a year and a half. She had bad allergies as well. She was put on Apoquel which is a nono for dogs with MCT. One am I woke up and saw Grace was bleeding profusely. I called Edinburgh and they wouldnt even see her. So I got her bandaged up well as possible and took her in later for Dr. Shane to check. He aspirated the spot and said no mast cell tumor. Told me to take her to Dermatology at BluePearl for allergy tests and Dr. Genoveese saw the mast cell tumor and aspirated it and ANOTHER one too and said not only WAS it cancerous but BOTH spots were. He told me she needed surgery to get both MCT'S off and to get her off the Apoquel which is not good for dogs with MCT. He said put her on benadryl.I call Dr.Shane back and asked how did u miss not one diagnosis but 2 and he just said the cancer doesn't always show up. Then I asked would he do the surgery and he said no and another vet said no as well. So we took her to Richmond VA and she seemed to do well. I have questioned myself over and over why Edinburgh never checked these MCT before. They always told me keep an eye on them. So about this year Grace started getting UTI's constantly. Off to Blue Pearl, back to vet, off to Blue Pearl again after another NO when I asked to bring her there one day, back and forth with these UTI'S. You would think that a dog with recurrent UTI'S and history of MCT kidneys would be checked right? Nope Dr. Shane did NOT check her kidneys until a week before her death. UNACCEPTABLE!! Blue Pearl had seen some spaces between her discs so they wanted to do an ultrasound on the day of her death.Unreal!! Well that day she had gotten so bad she couldn't walk,eat or drink water...she was dying. Edinburgh wouldnt even see her. So we had to take her all the way to VA BCH to have her euthanized.Our lives are devastated without Grace. We feel you let Grace and us down.

I have been taking my pets to with Edinburgh Animal Hospital for several years and have always been happy with my experiences. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly and genuinely love animals.

I brought our lab here for an emergency visit. Although the staff and vet were friendly, I felt pressured into surgery. I declined at the time to think about it and paid for the visit. The vet caught me on the way out to say she had tested positive for heart worms ( I did not know they ran the test) and suggested we leave her for treatment. She had been on heartguard, but I had missed that month's pill. I again declined and went to another vet for a second opinion. The second vet stated our dog did not need surgery and worst of all ran another heart worm test The test came back negative.

I can't imagine a friendlier staff and doctors. I'm sorry one of the reviewers felt differently, but I have taken 3 of my dogs and one cat to Dr Campbell for several years now and they are the friendliest, kindest, most compassionate group of people I have dealt with, and my pets feel the same way. My dog, Sarah, absolutely loves the staff and gets so excited to go there, in spite of her "Boo Boo's at the time. Animals are good judges of people, and if my pets are happy going there it makes my life so much easier!

I've been taking my pets (and stray animals) to Edinburgh for 3 years now. Both the staff and the vets have been amazing and very helpful - whether it was when my trouble pup got kicked in the face by a horse, my old dog was limping, or I had yet another feral cat that needed to be checked out! Not only are the staff and vets great... but they were always affordable for me... which is good news with all of the pets and stray animals in my life!

We had been taking our dogs there for almost a year when one of our dogs needed emergency care. I found my dog seizing when we woke up in the morning and rushed him to Edinburgh Animal Hospital. My husband waited in the car while I went inside to talk to the staff. It was first thing in the morning when they opened. The staff came in from the backdoor and said to someone else in the back “oh, it was just an walk-in.” So I told her that we thought since they had been our vet all this time, we wanted him to be put down where the staff was familiar with his condition. This was her exact word “I can not have your dog seizing here waiting for the doctor to show up. You need to go to Emergency Room.” So I told her, we understood that it was time to let him go, but just wanted to have it done somewhere he had been seen before. We wanted to wait for the vet to arrive. She told us again “I cant have your dog seizing here, you need to go now.” Needless to say, it was a very bad day for us since we had to say goodbye to our family member of 12 years and mostly were disappointed that we were treated poorly at this vet where we took all our dogs. We never received any phone calls from this clinic. A card was sent to us a week later with their condolences. Months later, we called to have our prescription refilled for our other dog, and came to find out our account has been deactivated because Dr. Campbell was very “displeased” that my husband complained about the clinic on the website. And that he deactivated our account without notification. Make the long story short, if you are looking for a quality care provider that actually cares more about your pets then the dollar signs they represent, look somewhere else.



Everything happened for a reason, the best thing they ever did for us was to deactivate our account because we actually found a new vet that cares about our animals. For that, we are most grateful.

We have been taking our 2 dogs to Edinburgh Animal Hospital for over three years and we love Dr. Campbell and his staff. I have a very elderly dog and also a 2 year old puppy; we have never been pressured for unnecessary tests/food/procedures. We have lived in several different cities and had 8 different vets over the years. Dr. Campbell is one of the best! Not only are their prices are extremely reasonable- and I've gotten estimates at several other area hospitals-, but their facility is very clean and they really care about their clients!

I had been going to Edinburgh Animal Hospital for more than a year when my dog developed an illness. I discovered my dog at the bottom of the stairs on a Friday and called them. They refused to see my dog because they close in 30 minutes. I made an appointment for first thing the next morning. The vet said to try some medication, it might help him get better. I did, that cost me $250. Monday we woke up and he was seizing, we called Edinburgh, they said they open at 7:30, we were there at 7:35. Upon entering, one of the people took one look at me and said, "oh it is only a walk in." We explained the situation and she said, there is nothing they can do, take your dog to the emergency vet, the doctor won't be here until 8:30. We asked if we could wait for the vet to show up since we have been going there for my dog's care. She said "No, I cannot have your dog here seizing for an hour." "I am sorry," she said in a very sarcastic tone. I had to put my dog down because of these seizures at the emergency Vet. And what a difference they are from one of the staff members from Edinburgh Vet. What Edinburgh failed to do was anything, but take my money, they abandoned us in our true time of need, it almost leads me to believe that they are only in it for the money and not the care of the animals. Not even a phone call to follow up that evening, I am taking all of my dogs to another vet. Good luck if you use them, when you really need them they will have you go elsewhere!!!

My dog Elvis had been mauled by another dog.. You could not ask for better care. They took Elvis right away to check him out. The Doctor and staff were very caring and kept us informed as to what they were doing every step of the way. It turned out that Elvis was going to have to go to an emergency surgical center and they had everything we needed to take with us. It was a very traumatic time for Elvis and us. Edinburgh Animal Hospital is the best.

HUGE waiting room. Very friendly and welcoming staff. The prices are very affordable compared to other vets I have been to- and I have been to a lot. Normally I only go to a vet once before I move on to a different one because I have never really been impressed with any vet. This is the first vet who I have actually been happy to go back to. They treat all of my animals well. The doctor asked me what I feed without trying to sell me any dog food. In fact, they have never tried to sell me anything I didn't want. Their is also never much of a wait there and they can always get me in pretty quickly. This place was recommeded to me by my mom and I have already recommended them to others. I have since moved from Chesapeake and now I drive almost 30 miles to go back to them.
