I transfered my dog to Rutherford after moving downtown and wanting a practice close to my new home. I brought my dog for his annual and had his bloodwork done. The appointment started fairly late - no big deal, it's typcially the same with humans. He also had a small procedure done while he was in the office for a bump he had on his arm and I didn't feel like the office was forthcoming with the price of the topical ointment they have him for it to follow up. The vet said she would call to check in on how the medicine was working, but never did. The medicine didn't work - I paid $50 for nothing. I am/was disappointed, becasue the vet also never called with his bloodwork results despite me emailing and calling their office on multiple occassions. To this day, I'm still not sure if I should be concerned about the results or if there is anything to lookout for. Also, when I tried to get him his flea/tick medicine, they had failed to weigh him during his visit. Again, perhaps a one off, but very concerning considering that should be a standard part of the physical exam. I understand based on their outside signs and some emails, that they are having staffing difficulties, however, I feel that calling customers to report on bloodwork for pets should still be prioritized, especially if you have paid for the testing. I will say my dog was confortable with the vet tech, and she went out of her way to comfort him during his visit and his small procedure. However, I'm highly considering finding a new vet practice for my pet due to the lack of customer service.

I called Rutherford in a panic this week when I could not get ahold of our primary vet. My Rottweiler was at the end of her life and I realized it was “time” that day. I called Rutherford out of the blue and they were able to see us within the hour. My husband and I walked in the office, having never set foot in there before but we were treated like long-time clients. The team had never met us before but we were greeted warmly and received such compassion from everyone we interacted with. Dr. Oakland saw us and gave us the assessment I needed to hear as we made the decision to euthanize our precious girl. She was so caring and patient with us throughout the process and gave me a parting hug. We were so impressed we plan to transfer our other pet to this clinic. Thank you, Dr. Oakland and staff, for making that really hard day just a little bit easier for us and Pippa

I adopted a dog recently and he is very skiddish and nervous because he was not exposed to very much in his previous home. The entire staff at Rutherford veterinary Hospital went out of their way to make him feel as comfortable and secure as possible. The service was absolutely amazing from the tech that assisted us when we first walked in to the time that we left. The Doctor was knowledgeable, great with my dog, and took time to answer all of my million and one questions. They even called the next day to check on Major and sent a welcome card in the mail. FANTASTIC experience, I was so nervous he would have a negative experience for his first vet trip, but it was literally a cake walk thanks to the staff and doctor here! Can’t recommend them enough. Major loved his adaptil bandana and didn’t want to take it off when we got home :)

  • Ashley K

Been coming to Rutherford for 3 years now with my two dogs and absolutely love Dr. Young. She has been the most considerate, loving, and kind vet that we have ever experienced. She has spent so much time helping us to figure out the right medicine for one of our very anxious dogs, when many other vets didn't take us seriously. Now our dog is so happy and has a new lease on life. The fees have all been very reasonable as well when compared to stories from family and friends who pay twice as much just for the standard office visit at other vets. The level of service and care is outstanding at Rutherford.

  • Hailey Ahn

My pup Peanut Butter loves going to the vet because of their awesome day care haha! All the members of the team are so friendly and caring, I know my dog is in good hands! He gets so excited the moment we pull up to the office, and I love getting to watch him through their camera and receiving the (very) Instagram worthy photos of him from day care. We’ve also been under the care of Dr. Rowan and Dr. Oakland, and they were very detailed in explaining instructions and information regarding Butter’s needs and I appreciated that!

  • Jaime Ortega

The ladies at the front desk were amazing. Very helpful and polite! Dr Oakland listened to my concerns about my cat Valentine. She was receptive and explained everything in detail without feeling rushed. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals. The Reception/examination rooms were spotless and everything looked very tidy and organized. Excellent Service but most importantly Excellent communication which is what I value in a Vet's office. Also they are open 7 days a week! Very convenient. I highly recommend!

  • Angela D

Finding a new vet when you move can be a toss-up. I was very glad as me and my furry family member had a great experience. Our Vet (Dr Oakland) was super patient with my anxious pup, called for follow-up, and prices were in-line with our previous vet. I appreciate the COVID measures they have in place too. But it's the overall experience for my dog that made me so pleased. Not rushed, patient, understanding, and thorough.

  • Deborah Johnsen

Dr Rowan was extremely thorough and caring in diagnosing my dog with sudden onset blindness. She did the labs which were needed . She went above and beyond by calling the ophthalmologist to get my precious dog in ASAP.. my appointment was scheduled very quickly thanks to Dr Rowan. She knew how upset I was over the situation and was informative and compassionate. I highly recommend this practice and Dr Rowan.

  • Kellie Watson

We LOVE Dr. Oakland. She's great with our senior dog who has Cushings disease among other ailments. He loves her, and is not nervous at all going to visit Dr. Oakland, unlike visits to prior vets. She has sound recommendations and genuinely cares about our little guy. We also really like the staff. They are all super friendly, helpful, and kind. I highly recommend Dr. Oakland and Rutherford Veterinary!

  • Ava Gutierrez

Great Vet. I love it here. They take great care of my dogs. I have one very old dog and they explained my dogs issues very well so that it's easy to understand and told me plans on how to beat treat her. They are also taking great measures to ensure social distancing like having us wait in our car and they come to retrieve our dog and then also ask us questions and explain things to us over the phone.

  • Jeremy Mccarty

I would need a forum to explain how great this place is. The staff is very friendly. The experience overall is fantastic. No one will treat your pet better and at an affordable price. They have helped us more than I can say and even call us regularly to check up on our dog. The Dr. truly cares about the animals she sees and it shows. Much love for The Rutherford! Keep it up! Please don't go anywhere.

  • Cris Y. Gonzalez

I take my cat Luke to this clinic because I trust the doctors and after every lab or test they contact me immediately to let me know the results. They are very much available as possible. They know we care about our pets and don't let us waiting in suspense for results. They give me peace on respect to Luke's health. Also front desk ladies are sweet. Thank you so much

  • RosSean Harris

As housesitters, we never experienced having to take a pet to the vet but Maxine health was declining. The vet did a great job explain to us as well as the pet owner what was going on and what needed to be done. Unfortunately Maxine health had declined to much and we had to have her euthanized. They did a great job at making her comfortable as she went to rest. Thank You

  • Lacy McCarty

We love Rutherford. The staff and doctors are so kind. Dr. Rowan and Dr. Young have both been so wonderful and truly love my dog. They have helped to save her life (since she has multiple health issues). Dr. Oakland has been amazing too. I'm so thankful for Rutherford and even though I have moved, I will never change vets. Misty is in the best hands ever!❤️

  • Teresa Dickerson

I LOVE Rutherford Veterinary Hospital! I am a rescue and have used a ton of vets. Dr. Rowan and staff provide excellent care and service. Follow through is awesome and communication is the best!!! I drive almost 2 hours for care for a very special girl and will definitely continue with the rest of my pack!!!! …

  • Katt M

What a great experience. Out my mind at ease, and was greater my pet. I’ve never seen anyone do labs that fast in my cat. Lol. Everyone was so nice, and understanding. I am grateful I found this place. And did I mention it is affordable, compared to others places. Thank you, so much, for taking care of my Tomas.

  • Debra Neel

I have been taking my pets to Rutherford for 20 years. I couldn't ask for better care and compassion, which is the exact reason I changed our veterinarians to Rutherford 20 years ago. They have proven over and over to me that I made the right decision.

  • Alena Savera

I can’t even begin to express how much I appreciate Dr. Oakland. Before coming to Rutherford, I had been going to the same vet for 5 years. After a negative visit with my previous vet, I decided to get a second opinion, and chose Rutherford

They are the best. I have been going there for almost 10 years and they have the best doctors and technicians. Really the entire staff is great. My cats get the best treatment possible and it is stress free. I highly recommend Rutherford.

  • Nicole Jenkins

I found Rutherford on a Sunday morning when my regular vet was closed. I've never been there before, but they were willing and able to get my girl in. (I was looking for a new vet anyways) The staff was super sweet and never made me feel

  • R Harrison

I have tried my best to like this place. The front desk staff - Liz, Alicia and Maria are top notch. Unfortunately, the smiling faces and great service stops after that. The doctors, specifically Dr. Young, has the worst bedside manner.

  • Lauren Cadilac

I have been going here since I moved to Dallas in 2011. I have had 4 pets put down at this place (they were mature when I moved here). As you can imagine, that has been very difficult. This vet has been amazing. They always make me feel

Caring veterinarians interested in helping both people & pets. We had to put one of our pets down & afterwards, we received a condolence card in the mail from Rutherford's that we weren't expecting. They seem to be a little lower on the

I made several visits for a few months when my cat became ill. Dr. Kerry Young did everything in her power to find out what was wrong and keep my cat comfortable. The prices are reasonable and they will give you a quote for everything

VIP treatment at fair prices- we love Rutherford!!! All of the staff are so kind and the vets know what they are doing and do not try to rip you off. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my pet but Rutherford.
