I took Charlie for his annual visit with OakWell Animal Hospital yesterday(3/25/25). Dr Maness along with the staff were friendly and efficient. Charlie is a little shy and they really went out of their way to make him comfortable and took their time with him. He left with his tail wagging. Thank you OakWell and staff.

I called to get a price on the removal of a single sebaceous cyst on my goldendoodle and they asked me to bring him by for an estimate. They kept him in a cage for 2 hours and when I picked him up not only did they charge me $71 for an "office visit" they quoted me "between $700 and $1200" when the traditional cost is less than $350.

Since I started coming to your office, being a new resident from Illinois with only my family of 5 furbabies, I was so grateful to find a loving and friendly veterinarian so close to my home. From day one of bringing my Smokey Bear to the office, the front desk receptionist Bethany, was the kindest, caring and sweetest person I’ve met. Over many many visits I tried to make appointments on her schedule. And what can I say about the doctors and assisting techs, over the top kind, caring and loving to me and my babies. Thank YOU ALL!

03.11.2025-My husband and I are so grateful for all of the kindness and extra special treatment that we have received for our four-legged family. We began going to Oakwell Animal Hospital about a year ago with our Catahoula Leopard dog, Luna. They were very accommodating to get her in based on our working schedule. Once there, we were pleased with every step of our visit. The surroundings, the cleanliness of the space and the kindness shown by every staff member we contacted from the front office to the back was appreciated by us!Recently, we were there, again with Luna, and expressed to Dr. Kiser that we had been searching the area for a vet who was willing to make a special house call to our home. Without going into detail, we had been diligently searching for a vet who was willing to come out and vaccinate a very sweet, large, terrified stray who needed veterinary care. Loading her up and taking her to the vet for a visit and some vaccines was not an option for us. We even contacted The Dog Wizard in Johnson City to come out and help us work with training her so she would willingly get in a car, but they weren’t allowed to come out since we had no proof of her ever being vaccinated. We were in a Catch 22 given that at least 4 separate area veterinarians had refused our request for a house call. So everywhere we turned was a dead end regarding having veterinary care for this dog who came to live on our property last year.However, I mentioned to Dr. Kiser our need, while she was examining and caring for another of our 4-legged family. She hesitated only for a moment as she contemplated the need, and she said that she would investigate whether this would be an option for them at Oakwell.Less than 24 hours later we received a phone call from them, that they would agree to come out and do a house call for “Mattie”, lovingly named due to the matts in her hair when we discovered her living in our tractor bucket last year.Yesterday we were met with Dr. Kiser, Traci, and Sydney, all of whom were professional, sweet, kind and efficient in their own specific training required. We could not have wanted for more or better than what we received. From the first moment they entered our home, until they left, we observed a team who was thorough, gentle, caring and kind. Dr. Kiser and her team answered all my questions and provided everything that we requested. Mattie was initially sedated and then she received vaccinations, blood work and much, much more.Thank you, Dr. Kiser, for your sweet, kind spirit and your willingness to go the extra mile when so many before you said “no”. Thank You, Traci, for your upbeat and fun-loving personality and your help throughout the planning phase and up through the entirety of the visit. You definitely got the rear end of the visit! And, Sydney, thank you too for your kindness shown, your help and your preparedness for the visit, in addition to your knowledge regarding chips and the next steps needed. We will be following through with this asap.We will be indebted to everyone at Oakwell Animal Hospital for a job very well done and we will obviously continue to spread the word about our favorable experiences with this Johnson City facility.Thank you, everyone. You are special and appreciated. Vance, Rene’, Luna, Mattie and Moolah

I done research on places before deciding where I wanted to establish lifetime care for my 2 new puppies and decided this was the one! From calling and making an appointment to our first visit with them, I was instantly amazed at how warm and welcoming everyone is! The whole visit went smoothly and I was listened to on any concerns or questions I had! They are all extremely knowledgeable and friendly and treat your pet(s) like family! Both of my puppies were at ease. Highly recommended.

It was a pleasant experience. One of my dogs starts shaking as soon as she enters the office, but the staff and doctor were able to put her at ease. Both dogs got thorough exams and the Dr fully and clearly explained her findings. I was very satisfied

This is the best animal hospital I've ever been to. The staff is incredibly kind, caring, and loving toward animals, always taking the time to answer all my questions. I began bringing my pets here in November, and since then, I had to say goodbye to one of them. I can't fully express my gratitude for the support I received during such a difficult time. They continue to care for my other pet, and I know she's in great hands, receiving the treatment she needs.

I just wanted to say thank you to all of the staff for being so kind, compassionate and patient with us this morning. Our two cats normally don’t have an issue with the vet and actually have loved everyone they interact with here every visit so far, but this morning was definitely crazy with them. Between our 2 year old cat having an accident and having to be cleaned up and our kitten being a wild child after his surgery, everyone was very patient and kind with us and we are incredibly grateful. I’m so sorry for the chaos that happened, but you guys handled it so professionally and that speaks volumes. It’s clear everyone here is passionate about what they do and they genuinely care. Thank you! ❤️

Friday afternoon and our cat was exhibiting signs of urinary dysfunction. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to have him seen so late in the day and worried he’d get worse over the weekend without treatment. I called Oakwell and they said to bring him in as a “drop off” and they would run the tests they needed to run and call me with a diagnosis and treatment plan. We were able to take him home just before they closed with his antibiotic and instructions. I can’t say enough nice things about EVERYONE at Oakwell. This was our second experience with them and both times they treated our cats with a concerned compassion and they get extra kudos for tolerating our ill mannered cat Rex who makes it very clear how unhappy he is to be there, lol!

What an amazing place! I can’t say enough good things. They go above and beyond when I come in. It feels like they care about my fur babies and they treat them like their own. Such an amazing team. From start to finish! My boy was so happy, he never has anxiety about going to the vet.
