Ángel Oak Animal Hospital is top notch in every aspect. From the time you walk in the door everyone is very professional and welcoming. The office is very clean and has a peaceful atmosphere for all animals making them feel more at ease. The Dr. and assistant are very knowledgeable and genuinely care about your pet listening to all needs and concerns.

Dr. Pratt and her assistant were wonderful with our hurting beagle. She took the time to carefully and gently examine Chica to find the source of her pain. Dr. Pratt throughly explained what she believed was the issue, the options, and her recommendations. We have never had this level of professionalism and care at a vet clinic before.
We were really impressed with the clinic and Chica’s care.Thank you both so much!

We went to Angel Oak Animal Hospital for the first time and couldn’t have been happier! The staff were extremely friendly and Dr. Rivers was very thorough and informative. We are happy we made the decision to bring our dog there after our move to John’s Island.

I bring my two border collies here and the level of service is top notch. Dr. Pratt and the technicians go above and beyond to make sure my dogs are comfortable and enjoy each visit, and treat your pets as if they are their own!
