I have brought my pets to Ohlandt for many years (except three years when I lived away from Charleston), and today was the pinnacle of my appreciation for their kindness, honesty, professional opinion, conservative-when-appropriate approach and PRICING.\r

I had scheduled surgery for my older dog to have a slow-growing cancerous mass removed. I realized this morning as we I prepared to bring him in, that I was not even nervous (unlike previous surgical visits) as I completely trust the team at Ohlandt to do the right thing, involve me in all decisions, and price treatment fairly (the estimate as always was incredibly reasonable). In the end, the vet we saw did a complete exam and bloodwork and recommended that we wait to see if the mass grows due to Bear's age and the risks/recovery involved in surgery. I especially appreciated how he went the extra mile to give his personal opinion from professional perspective, but made sure to let the decision ultimately be MINE. Bear even got his nails clipped (complimentary) and I left having paid very little for so much of the vet's time and a full-day surgical appointment left unused. \r

Previous visits have always shown the entire staff to truly LIKE every kind of pet and care on a sincere level. From scheduled annual exams/shots to emergency walk-in appointments, I have never waited too long, been charged too much, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, I have always left knowing I got information and advice I trust completely - whether it's a call to act or a call to sit still and wait (when handed the vet's cell number in case of a weekend flare-up) - I know they have my beloved pet's best interest at heart. \r
I AM SO GRATEFUL TO HAVE SUCH AN AMAZING VET!
