If I could give it a minus one star I would I brought my dog in for a cyst removal biopsy only to be called a couple hours later by the doctor telling me to come get her that something terribly had gone wrong and her for canine teeth were all broken with no real explanation of what had happened I ended up having to go to another emergency room following the surgery and haven't left my dog's side as she's been whimpering until I can get her to a dentist. The doctor did not offer any sincere apology or offer to make good on what had gone wrong I will never frequent this establishment again and I will be filing charges in reporting the business this was totally unacceptable and never should have happened

I visited the office 2x with my dog. The staff was very kind. I would advise any new patients to ask what the vet will do and how much it will cost. My 2nd visit was my final visit. My bill was double what I expected. Sneaky dishonest business. Lots of attempts to sell you extras and get vaccines earlier than they are due. I felt something was "off" after my first visit and should have gone with my gut and cancelled our 2nd visit. I received my dogs lab results within 1 day after I was told it would take 1 week. I have a strong suspicion they were never processed. Buyer beware you are dealing with a car salesman disguised as a veterinarian.

The staff at Lanier are incredibly kind and ensure a calm, low traffic environment, which is especially helpful for my anxious dog. They always run on time and Dr. Lanier always demonstrates patience and expertise.

My cat had two seizures within a week and I brought him to Dr. Lanier. He had previously treated my other cat and Dr. Lanier has always been professional and caring. I am glad i have such a good vet on my side
