Raines, Lee, Dvm - Lavergne Veterinary Clinic

I've been going to La Vergne Vet Clinic since it opened. So many different vets have come and gone but Raines is here to STAY! I absolutely love that man! He is so kind to my dogs and he cares! Just found out that my mutt MIGHT have cancer and Doc Raines was so caring when he had to tell me. Wont know anything until a biopsy is done and we get the results back and am waiting for hubby to heal enough that I wont be driving him to dr's and PT all the time. In the meantime, the doc put him on a regiment of meds. I wont let anyone touch my dogs but Raines. He is top-knotch! As far as prices??? It's very hard to pay for the upkeep of 2 large dogs when there is very little money coming in but these animals are FAMILY and we are just having to find a way, even if it means selling something. We adore Dr Raines! more

I completely disagree with the other reviewer. My 18 year old cat had a stroke last year and we had to make an emergency trip to have him put down. The vet was not only gentle and kind to him, but also to my husband and I. They also handled his cremation and arrangements so we would not have to deal with the loss and the grief of going to the pet cemetary. Since then we have gotten 2 new kittens in addition to our 3 dogs and remaining cat. Both doctors have treated them and have been nothing but caring, kind, and gentle. They fawn over our cats and play with our dogs. \r \r As for price, I'm from San Diego and have lived in TN for 15 years. The price here is so much more reasonable than our vet in SD, Cookeville, Franklin, or Nashville. We've had 3 major surgeries with this vet and all have been very reasonably priced, not to mention extra care was given by the vet to our pets. Yearly shots are very inexpensive as well.\r \r So long as I live in TN, I will not go anywhere else but La Vergne Veterinary Clinic. Pros: You can tell they really care about the animals they treat Cons: None! more

I took my beagle in for a skin problem about two months ago. The Vet might have been in the room with us for at most 2 minutes. He diagnosed her and gave us two expensive prescriptions. She has only gotten worse. It was our first time there and it will be our last. He didn't seem to care about his patients or their owners. Going to a different Vet now. Pros: Easy to get in. Cons: Vet is in a rush to get you out the door. more
