Editorial review from Citysearch Citysearch

Our dog possibly ate some cold medicine. My daughter took the dog to this vet. The got the dog to vomit, gave her charcoal, an I.V for fluids and kept her overnight. The bill was $1,300.

I brought my dog to PAP2 for an after-hours emergency visit, so the estimate was steep to begin with. I made payment arrangements with the staff - put down a deposit of over $400 and paid the balance after pick up. This was July 2009. I just received (as in today, October 4th 2010) a voicemail asking for a return call regarding my balance due - well over a year after the service was rendered. I...

We loved this place because it was 24 hours and seemed reasonable, but about 6months after we started taking our pup there, the Mgmt changed and we suddenly had extra charges every single time we took her, regardless if we had current shots just two weeks earlier, they would always find a way to tack on 50-100 dollars! she came from the back smelling HORRIBLE, either like a cheap air freshener...

Do not trust this practice with your animals. This is a corporate practice whose main interest "money" will always come before your animal's welfare. If you do some research you will find other "local" clinics that charge far less and require less manditory testing. You will not find fees like biohazard, disposable needles etc, at most clinics. They also have a rule about splitting up flea and...

I brought my newly adopted dog in for shots at the PAPT in Dunwoody. The assistant refused to help me weigh my dog and pretty much ignored us. Then, we were ushered into a small room and I was presented with a bill for $600!! When she saw the look on my face she said that we didn't have to do everything today and we ended up negotiating over services. I felt like I was buying a used car not...

Horrible boarding facility

Average Rating

20

While the areas of the building seen by the public have been updated, the boarding facilities are outdated, a biohazard and unsupervised. The staff hired to care for the boarders do not take the dogs out properly and they are all thugs who seem to care less about the welfare of animals. Do not board here without a kennel tour!

Local Vet Has Sold Out

This was nice local vet until recently, when they sold out to a giant chain. The changes have been overwhelming, and even the staff complains. Instead of giving your dog a normal checkup, they now make you choose from several packages of optional tests and procedures, pushing the higher-priced ones, which are loaded with tests rarely considered necessary for most dogs. If you need ear-wash for...

I agree with the above reviewer. PAPT has terrific veterinarians and amazing emergency care. My family has been taking our pets there for 25 years--long before they expanded, sold-out, and hired Gary, who is always too busy being snooty to actually assist customers. I am loyal to their vets for showing expertise and compassion when my pets were in dire trouble. However, the boarding facility...

Good doctors and affordable prices but i have left my dog boarding twice and both times she comes back with something wrong.

I took my dog to PAPT with a swollen ear. They suggested a very expensive surgery. I asked if there were any other options and was told there was a way to treat the problem but that it only had a 50% chance of success. Because of circumstances, and the fact that I just got the feeling that I was being pushed a little too hard for the surgery, I decided to the second option. The ""Vet"" took...

If you love your pet and it's an emergency, FIND ANOTHER CLINIC! The staff seemed to dislike their jobs and their clients. They showed little empathy toward pets or owners (including the sobbing owners of a pet that died while in the clinic's care). Prices were reasonable, but I wouldn't even bring a pet here for euthanasia.
