We have been with Dr. Ellington for 12 years now. He has to been the most kind and gentle human on this earth. My dog can't wait to jump out of the car when we get to the parking lot. When my married daughter got a dog and moved to Suwanee, she still wanted to come to Decatur to see Dr. Ellington. I love almost as much as my dog Sadie does. more

Dr. Ellington has been my vet for over 30 years. He has taken care of every dog that I have owned. From new born pups to my 15 year old dog that he had to put to sleep. My pets jump out of the car as soon as I pull up to the clinic. They love Dr. Ellington and his staff and so do I! more

Best Vet ever 7/28/2010

Dr Ellington is "Awesome". He is sooo patient and caring. He has been our vet for the past 6 yrs and taken such good care of our baby. I wish my doctor was a caring as my vet. He calls to follow up with a phone call and takes his time with each patient. I wish him many more years of of success!!!\r V .A ("Brewster") more

Dr Ellington is the best! 5/21/2010

Dr Ellington is superb. My family started using his clinic for all our pets shortly after he opened. At the time his clinic was very close and convenient to my house, but I relocated 20 years ago. Distance is not even a consideration for me even though I now live almost 40 miles away. I gladly pass many other animal clinics to take my pets to someone I know and trust without question. You could not ask for a more considerate, caring person to handle your pet's needs. He is very knowledgable and he definitely goes above and beyond in delivering the "wow" experience for his clients. more

Best of the best! 4/5/2010

If you are so lucky as to have Dr. Ellington as your vet, I think you will agree, he and his office all become part of your family. If you love your pets, then Dr. Ellington is a veterinarian you will feel right at home with. When he returns phone calls even after a busy late day, how can trust not but build. Further, clinically he is a doctor's doctor. His ability to diagnose is obviously built on years of study and years of experience. Melt these with a deep seated love of animals and you have an American legend. Plain and simple. Yes, there are many great vets, but when you find one, you just got to let people know. more

Snapfinger Creek Animal Clinic is Great 7/29/2009

I LOVE Snapfinger Creek Animal Clinic I have a very small dog (4 lbs) who she becomes very ill when she gets her yearly shots. Last August we moved from Florida and needed a vet, Snapfinger came highly recommended. Our shots were due and I expressed my concern, along with prior records, and Dr. Ellington kept my baby all day (free of charge) to make sure she didn't have any reactions. That spoke volumes to me!!! Not only did they keep her all day, they called me twice to tell me she was okay. They were extremely nice and informative. I HIGHLY recommend them! more

Martha S. 7/18/2008

We have used Dr. Ellington and his staff for over 30 years with our various pets. He has always been so kind and caring and kowledgable for every problem we have incurred.\r \r I cannot magine having to take our pets to "strangers," but we did have to do so recently in an emergency. However, I am still a loyal client of Snapfinger and will be so as long as we have pets in our home. Thank you Dr. Ellington and all the staff there for being such caring and professional people. more

Kind and Knowledgeable Care 1/9/2008

In 1979 my beloved 13 year old pet poodle was diagnosed with diabetes. At that time no one around my area knew how to treat her and I was referred to Dr. Ellington. For over a year we made three trips a week (50 miles round trip) for him to monitor her progress. When it was time to let her go, he was so compassionate and comforting to us. She had three pups that all lived to be 13 to 14 years old and each of them developed illnesses during their last years that were difficult to manage. Dr. Ellington was our choice to care for these "family members" and he eventually had to help each one reach the "Rainbow Bridge". I have thought of him often over the past 25 years and decided to Google the clinic and I am so glad to see that he is still helping animals to receive the best possible care. Thank you Dr. Ellington - you made a lasting impression on my family and we have fond and grateful memories of the kindness you displayed and the professionalism you gave to Josie, Gidget, Boots more

Loving care for animals 7/21/2005

Don't be deceived by the outside of the Snapfinger Animal Clinic - it may not look imposing, but inside are people who genuinely love and care for animals. Dr. Ellington is the veterinarian and owner of the clinic and his love for animals is evident from the first moment he cradles your furry friend in his arms. More than once I've called him in an emergency and he's always calm and reassuring, and has gotten my pets back to health. His assistant Martha always explains any prescriptions or special instructions, and frequently after an illness someone will call to check on the invalid pet. The clinic also offers boarding services for both short- and long-term stays. The parking lot can be tricky, though. It's tiny and at peak times it can be difficult to manuever. more
