Columbia Animal Hospital is a disgrace. They don't care about your pet, they care about control and squeezing every dollar they can out of you. They flat out refuse to see your dog unless you give in to their forced vaccines, whether your dog needs them or not. Rabies is the only shot required by Virginia law, but they act like they're above the law and can bully you into unnecessary, overpriced treatments. It's manipulative, greedy, and unethical. I wouldn't trust these people with a goldfish, let alone my dog.

Molly Tango is not only unprofessional, disrespectful. She also has anger issues. I took my dog and drove 35 minutes to see Molly Tango on Monday. My dog gets anxious and scared at the vet, which I informed her assistant in the beginning. She didn't use any a stethoscope, thermometer, tools for examining her eyes and ears. Because she was scared that my 30 pounds corgi would bite her and was overstressed. Overall I refused to accept her recommendation on prescription because it wouldve been inaccurate. The manager wasnt any ... read more

Today, April 22, 2025, at around 5:00 PM, I visited this hospital to get medication for one of my pets. After waiting for almost 10 minutes at the pharmacy window, I asked a tall, burly, dark-haired man where the manager was. This man responded rudely, "Why?" I told him I wanted to file a complaint about waiting for almost 10 minutes to be seen at the pharmacy, and no one was there. This man, mocking me, told me it wasn't necessary for me to speak to the manager. I asked him why he was laughing at me, because I thought it wa... read more

Unfortunately the care has declined at this establishment, my cat was tentatively diagnosed with asthma back in October and put through several different treatment plans and when they couldn't figure out what was causing her symptoms, they referred her to a specialist and dusted their hands, I have spent thousands on the recommendations of the doctors here. I have had issues trying to get a hold of all of her medical records from CPAH, I was also called a bad owner by one of their employees who would even stoop as low as tal... read more

I took my dog in for an ear issue, in which it was determined that he needed to have a small procedure done. The procedure was $500, and I was told to bring him back weekly for 3 check-ups, wherein the check-ups were included in invoice. Took him back week 1 (no charge), week 2 (no charge) and week 3 ($100). I explained that the check-ups were supposed to be free based on instructions I got after surgery. I was told that I was charged because he saw a Dr.! OK, what does that have to do with me? IDK how an animal hospital fun... read more

Another clinic that's all about the $$$$$ before actually helping animals. I called as I was given a script for tick meds after my dog had the worst kind seen engorging on her (I want to be sick)...ran to vets they did not carry nexgard and told me to go to another vet or store but most stores or chewy require MAIL in which is ridiculous in 2024....I need the tick meds now! I called around and ended up calling Columbia pike who refused to fill the script or sell me the box unless I get a 'exam' with their vet. SERIOUSLY??... read more

They are sick people especially Tom the manager. My heart breaks for how they treated my daughter and our dog. His health is declining so fast after his recent visit. And to hear Tom speak to my daughter in such a disrespectful way is unacceptable. She wants answers and she rightfully deserves it. My daughter is crying daily. Now I want answers too

DESPICABLE. Brought my 15yr old dog in. Girl nurse and guy vet thin (probably on drugs) choked my dog; I had a witness thank god. Gave me one option to "tap" but he might die. Didn't listen to my concerns. Contacted the hospital back 4x to get answers to what happened to my dog when they "took my baby back for an exam" Got no answers. Besides we can try to tap but he most likely will die. I did NOT SPEND 10k and 15yrs loving and caring for my baby to take him to a VET to CHOKE HIM. Not give me answers. And TOM the manger, w... read more

If I could give zero stars I would. I had to get my puppy spayed and ended up choosing this place, wish I could change that now. Firstly, I will say it seems as though the surgery went well, but we shall see (the surgery was yesterday). My pup has separation anxiety and I dropped her off around 7am. The appointment was under my boyfriends name and he was unavailable that day so I was "in charge" and needed to handle everything. I gave them my cell and explained that my bf was busy so they need to call me. Around 11am they... read more
