Our pup is small, but he is mighty! One thing that had us very worried when moving cities was finding a new vet for our spoiled, bratty, but the best pup. Carmel vet clinic is well educated, compassionate and patient! Trust me when I say patient! If you live or recently moved to the carmel area and need a vet, check them out!

I'll preface this review with the doctors are great and both the Allisonville and Brookschool locations are great. However, on two separate occasions for both of my dogs, I called the day after with serious concerns about my dogs and felt that my concerns were dismissed. My first dog, I was told to call if his condition got worse because it was important for him to be seen and they first dismissed my concerns about him being seen, I called again and they scheduled me an appointment for the next day. I called the Allisonville location after that and they set up an emergency appointment for me. My other dog was sedated and I called the next day because he was not acting well. They said they'd talk to the doctor and call me back. Over an hour later and close to close I had no follow up, I called the Allisonville location and they gave me some instructions and promptly set up an appointment for him to be seen. Lengthy review but I wanted to make it known that my dogs were in need of being checked on and Carmel didn't set up appointments for them nor did they do anything to ease my mind that my dogs were okay.

This place is extremely close to home so I was hoping this would be my vet. When one of my cats suddenly looked like she was breathing super heavily, I called this place to see if they could see my cat asap, and explained my cat looked like she was struggling to breath. They told me they didn't have any appointments for a week but instead of urging me to find a sooner appointment they tried to schedule me for their clinic in Fishers, days out. I reluctantly agreed because of my stress and confusion. Thankfully I immediately realized the urgency and found another clinic, Noble West. I cancelled the appointment with Carmel. My cat could have died if I waited as she literally was having a very severe asthma attack. My second experience was with my other cat who started making popping sounds when he walks. Not an emergency so I could wait for an apt. One of the doctors looked at him walk and talked to me about it and sent me home with meds to stop potential swelling, but it ended up not doing anything because there was no swelling. When I returned for a follow up appointment they told me I need to schedule an xray. This location doesn't do them apparently. So I had to schedule a 3rd apt just to get an Xray at their Fishers location. When they saw the scans she couldn't see anything wrong, this just happens and recommended I try a cat chiropractor if I'm worried. I feel like they were nice but not at all helpful. A waste of time/money if you have to be redirected to their Fishers location for Xrays. Also the animal chiropractor recommendation seemed like a last ditch suggestion, I knew it would be another waste of time and money. I went to Noble West Clinic for a second opinion and they instantly saw something was off on the same xrays and gave me a referral to an orthopedic specialist who could understand the results even better. He ended up having minor arthritis and hip dysplasia. Long story short this place should be avoided for emergencies or if you might need bone/joint xrays.

This clinic is our pet's usual spot and it is spotlessly clean and well maintained. The staff is very friendly and service is very quick. It was raining heavily yesterday and my entire visit took less than 2 minutes to pick up prescriptions, check my pup's weight, pay my bill and head out. The vets here are extremely knowledgeable and very experienced basis my

My cats and I love Dr. Cable! I have seen her at the Carmel and Fishers locations. She is extremely friendly and knowledgeable and goes the extra mile. She carries a basket full of treats and toys to entertain the animals. I'm moving cross country so I asked for advice on transporting the cats and she printed out several articles on acclimating them to their carriers and the car, what to do about food and litter box, and helping them adjust to their new home. I had gone to Parkside Animal Hospital before and had a negative experience- asked a male vet there the same question and he just abruptly said he doesn't approve of medicating pets on drives- which I never even asked about. He made me feel like a pill seeker, which I have a lot of experience with, being a pharmacist and I wouldn't treat my patients like that. I asked that vet about litter, making them at ease, etc and he didn't have any advice. So I really appreciate Dr. Cable's extra effort (I didn't even mention the other vet because this was my other cat and I wanted as much advice as possible). When I called Carmel Veterinary Clinic now closer to my move, I actually asked about medicating my older cat because she had escaped twice in the past three weeks while my parents had my two cats as we set up our move out of state. I was fine with Benadryl or whatever recommended but wanted her advice and safe dosing. Dr. Cable called me back personally and we talked and I brought both cats in for weight check for dosing and also to go over last minute concerns. Great service! The office staff at both Carmel and Fishers are very friendly and helpful too. I love that the vets rotate offices so you can find your regular/favorite vet wherever is most convenient at variety of times- morning and even evening hours.

Amazing that I got an emergency appointment the next morning at 10:30. The sweet doctor has a really wonderful dog-side manner :-) She got to the root of the problem and my bill for medications and urinalysis and an exam was only $140, which I find very acceptable. I Didn't get push to get any other items and I didn't have to wait very long in the waiting room. I definitely found my new vet!

To anyone considering Carmel Vet, rest assured that your pet will be loved and taken care of with compassion by an expert staff. Our family is especially grateful to Dr. Cloud for walking through our dog Daisy's cancer journey with us. We were able to enjoy 18 more months with her thanks to their care. Thank you to the entire staff. They were always a pleasure to work with and I would recommend them to anyone.
