Dr Kirsten gave the most gentle and thorough exam to my 9 year old lab! I had changed clinics because I felt the other was a cash machine. No kindness, just about adding services. So happy I found her. I would pay twice as much for this place. I even saw them extend credit for someone in need. A truly caring group.

We went to Batavia Animal Clinic after bad experience with another veterinarian and are very happy with Adam Schanding since then. Very proficient and considerate doctor that doesnt push you to pay for unnecessary things. Really knows his way around animals, big and small. The prices at the BAC are very reasonable.

I just adopted my dog and he is very scared of new people. The people at Batavia Animal Clinic are SO patient and kind and take things very slow to make sure Cheeko is comfortable. I cannot express how much that means to me and my pup!

This is the first vet clinic I took my pup too cause of all the positive reviews. Then I started branching out to ones closer too me but when it came to my pup and a suspicion of ear infection I brought her here. The nurses are always super nice and welcoming and it makes me want to come back 🐶🐶🐶 and for my first visit they gave me a referral card for a free first visit and we ended up using it for our Siamese kitten 🐱 so definitely recommend to come here.

Dr Schanding is great with animals. He has a way of understanding how they feel and what they need. Very kind, knowledgeable, efficient, easy to talk with & fairly priced. Staff is always professional & friendly. Best vet ever for my family.

The doctors and staff at Batavia Animal Clinic are helpful, kind and compassionate with our family. We started going to this clinic during COVID and they were so well organized, and orchestrated the communication for drop off, consultation with the physician and pick-up perfectly. The physicians take the time to educate our family and ensure that we are comfortable with the treatment of our pet.

The vets are fantastic! The employees are super friendly and professional. They are so accommodating, too. I needed a vaccine for my dog last minute before a grooming appointment and they were able to squeeze me in. I would absolutely recommend the Batavia Animal Clinic to anyone!

Dr. Magnuson is amazing with all my dogs and very thorough with examining my pets over and I’ve been to a lot of vets none who have checked over everything which was what sold me on making Batavia Animal Clinic my primary vet! My dogs literally get excited to go vet and sit wait at the front door!

Five stars isnt even enough. Everyone there is the absolute best! Sometimes I feel like my dogs get into things just so we can go visit them! Dr. Magnuson and Dr. Schanding are amazing. They take their time, making my pets (and myself) feel comfortable. They are educational, attentive to individual needs, and always go above an beyond. So grateful for Batavia Animal Clinic! Highly recommend.

I drive a half hour to come to this specific vet because they take such good care of my pups. I don’t trust my dogs with any vet but these wonderful humans at Batavia Animal Clinic. Friendly, thorough and they’re not out to make a buck off of you. They’re just interested in what’s best for your animal.

Dr. Schanding is great. Hes very clear in his recommendations and is excellent at explaining and walking you through exactly what your pets test results mean. The staff are also awesome! I initially was recommended to Batavia Animal Clinic by Anderson Animal Shelter where I adopted my dog and, even though its a little out of my way, Ill definitely continue to go to Batavia Animal Clinic because of how impressed Ive been with their quality and professionalism.

Just took my cat today and they are always super caring and patient. I have never felt like I was being taken advantage of and will keep coming. Both vets I have worked with have been thorough, upfront, and honest every time I have gone. I highly recommend coming here!

Great service... super caring staff. Jasper always comes out of the appointment happy and never minds visiting the vet! My messages are always answered through Pet Desk which alleviates anxiety if something is happening with my dog that I am unsure of. So grateful for the whole team!

New customer to the clinic and area, and the vet couldnt take 2 minutes to come outside and introduce herself. Not asking to go inside or shake hands or anything. Id just like to meet the person and see them interact with my pet before I blindly leave them in your care. Didnt end up sticking around for the appointment.

Took my new puppy for his first exam and was seen by Dr. Magnuson. Although I couldn’t accompany my puppy due to social distancing I spoke with the doctor for over 30 minutes by phone during and after his exam. She answered ALL my questions (I had lots) and was kind and very knowledgeable. She explained everything and made recommendations for his future care. I am so pleased I will be switching my other dog to Batavia Animal Clinic as well. Highly recommend.

Recently brought one of our dogs in for what we thought was a broken leg. Dr. Magunson was amazing! She kept me updated frequently (seeing as I was sitting in the car outside). She helped me through getting our pup set up for a surgery consult and at the end she even brought me in to look at the X-rays and explained everything in great detail. We also saw Dr. Shanding with another dog and he was amazing as well. He was very supportive in finding the options that worked best for us.

I switched to Batavia Animal Clinic just recently and I wish I had come to them sooner. Dr. Schanding takes the time to explain everything he is doing and why. He does not rush through exams and my lab loves going to see him. He treats my dog like his own. The entire staff is friendly and helpful. I have always had a pleasurable experience here and recommend them to anyone with a pet!

The Batavia Animal Clinic is great! When we moved we made the long trip back to our old animal hospital because we had been clients there for eight pets over 47 years.An emergency brought us to Batavia Animal Clinic. The care from both doctors, allayed our apprehension about moving to this practice. Our Sadie and Tyger having gotten the best and loving care. Thanks Batavia Animal Clinic.

I love this Vet Clinic. I have two new puppies and Dr. Magnuson really impressed me with the way she interacted with them. She really took the time to answer any questions and explained everything very well. Our second visit went just as well and our pups needed their shots and didnt even notice they got the vaccines. All of the staff we encountered here were very friendly. We will definitely recommend Batavia Animal Clinic to others.

Review №30

I just want to say how thankful we are for this office. Previous vets have been very rude, especially if they recommend a service or procedure that you can’t afford right away. My animals have always been a priority to me and considered family, so if I could do anything to help them I would but sometimes paying for rent and other bills has to come first. This office is so understanding about every situation including financial problems. About a week ago, they removed a huge mass on my beagles leg, and once the anesthesia wore off, you can’t even tell she had surgery! They sent us home with antibiotics and pain medication. They’re very thorough, and they even called to check on her the next day! Love love love this vet and Sammi loves seeing her friends there too!

This is a great vet practice. During COVID theyve managed to implement an augmented system while treating my pooch. They have been taking care of my 15 year old fur buddy for the last two weeks with kindness, patience, and compassion. They are quite competent and have a phenomenal staff that goes out of their way to work with you. Im new to the area and Batavia Animal Clinic has alleviated much of my fear about finding a new vet.

The staff and vets are kind and compassionate. In 2018 I had to put my dog down and Dr. Magnuson was incredibly supportive before, during and after the process. The past year we adopted two rescues and once again Dr. Magnuson and the entire staff at Batavia Animal Clinic have been amazing, especially during this pandemic.

We visited for the first time to have a pet put down. The staff was extremely friendly and compassionate toward us as we were grieving our new loss. They explained everything every step of the way so we didnt have any surprises as we went through and witnessed our pets last moments. I would highly recommend this vet to anyone looking for a vet in the area.

We love all of the staff here! I was nervous about finding a new vet when we moved here a few years ago but Dr. Schanding and the staff take good care of our pup. He would panic at our vet office in Chicago but he seems to do well with them. Our pup also enjoys the cats that walk around, specifically Jack. I highly recommend it and I think our pup would too

My dog is not a patient here, but she is on prescription food. My normal vet is out of her specific food and told me to call around and see if another vet has it. Batavia Animal Clinic had stock of the food. I offered to provide a prescription for the food, but they said they were unwilling to sell the food to me.

The Batavia Animal Clinic is nothing but sweet, professional and kind to their clients, and their clients human companions. During the pandemic we adopted a new pet and needed to have her checked out. During this trying time the staff implemented a process to ensure the safety of their clients and their staff that was flawless. Each pet was taken into the office promptly while maintaining social distancing. I walked back to my car and spoke with the doctor over the phone. I have never felt rushed during our appointments and the staff is always willing to give our pets ear scratches and treats. They answer calls and emails about any questions I may have and are 100% transparent about pricing for each treatment your pet may need. This is our second beloved pet Dr. Schanding has treated, and he and his office make Batavia a better place to live in because of their wonderful office. Not only does this office support each families pets, they are also a huge part of our community. If youre looking for a local vet, have confidence in this office. Your pet will thank you for it.

At first I thought I would just come here for the general visit, offered through Anderson Animal Clinic when adopting, but I really enjoyed their interactions with me and my dog. They were very polite with making my appointment, and I got calls reminding me what I had to bring. They gave me so much advice for training a puppy. They were very patient with all the questions I was asking. I got out a little after closing, but didnt feel rushed to get out. Sorry for keeping you okay your time.

Review №54

This place truly cares for your animals as much as you do. Anytime there is an issue they give me printed information so I can educate myself on whats going on with my pet. I have also received follow up calls from the vet themselves which is a very nice personal touch not received elsewhere. When I bring my dog in they are always on the floor snuggling, petting, and playing with my dog and ensuring his comfort. He no longer fears being at the vet and it has become a positive experience for my dog. I wouldnt trust anyone else with the care of my pet.

A neighborhood clinic that provides the personal attention you want for your pets, I cant say enough about the genuine care and concern they show animals and their owners! Our family followed Dr. Magnesson when she moved from a much larger animal hospital in Naperville to join this much smaller practice in Batavia. It has been well worth the drive! 😻

I took my cat here for the first time today to treat a upper respiratory infection. the staff and vet were so sweet to her. Kept calling her cute, giving her compliments about her collar and jacket, being very gentle with her and answered every question me and my family had about her care. The doctor even clipped her nails for free while she was there because I was short on money, baby just wont let me do it alone and she really needed. This place cares, like really care, past it being a career. Between the gentle interactions with her, cute little compliments about her, to the sweet smiles the doctor gave her. It overall was a amazing visit. I would recommend this place to anyone that has a fur baby! Specially one thats more on the sweet scared side. They will take good care of them

This is the best vet clinic weve been to so far (and weve been to many).The staff is very nice. The doctor is super experienced! He drew blood from my dog without shaving fur or tightening his paw. Impressive skills!

We received a coupon for a free exam from this clinic when we adopted a hound puppy from Anderson Animal Shelter and were pleasantly surprised! The staff was very friendly and the Dr was kind and explained everything to us very well.When we went back for a follow up 2 weeks later, the staff remembered our pup Hobbes and we were well taken care of.The clinic is very clean, convenient, and has a great animal medical team for anyone living in or near Batavia.

I’m new to batavia, and I’ve taken both my pups to Batavia Animal Clinic. The vet and techs here are top notch. They helped save me money and ensured to call me ASAP with test results because they knew I was anxious. Bottom line - they care about your pets and you.So many vets are turning into business instead of a care facility. Batavia animal clinic is obviously open because they care about your pets, just like you care about yours.

I have taken my cat Isaac there two times and have been very happy with the service both times. The nurses and the doctor are friendly and knowledgeable. They would also hear out any concerns regarding my cats health. Never did I feel like they were forcing a treatment on my cat, they would always discuss the pros and cons with me and I had the final say in treatment. Overall I felt my cat and I were given great service, and treated with respect. Oh and the doctor even remembered My cat and I even though my visits were months apart. This has become my primary vet.

Such a wonderful Veterinarian office. They have seen all of my animals, Guinea Pig included, and are absolutely wonderful people. The Veterinarian himself is super gentle and very unobtrusive. I have rescue dogs that are not really wild about men and they are perfectly fine with him touching them and trimming their nails. As far as their prices go, I would say they are on par to any other Vet in the area. If you leave them a message, they get back to you with a solution. The biggest thing I love about this office is that they do not push products that you do not need and they talk to you about the vaccines that you need. They do not force anything on you and you feel that you are helping make the choices about your pets care without any judgement. I would drive here if we moved out of town.
