MURDERERS I took my kitten mittens to this horrible place and it was perfectly healthy before I took her in. However after a routine checkup they told me she needed different medicines for fleas, worms, etc. they administered the medicine and kept her for observation. I returned to South rhea animal hospital hours later only to find she was dead. they told me she had an "allergic reaction" to the medicine, and still tried to make me pay ! Don't take your pets here unless you are ready to part from them forever! They Kill Pet... read more

Owner's Response I am Dr. Jeffrey Nix and I am the owner of South Rhea Animal Hospital. First of all, thank you to all who have taken time to review, good or bad. It is this process that allows all businesses to be accountable for their actions. No veterinarian that I know is in the business to intentionally cause harm to any pet. Medicine is an imperfect science and we are all human, including the doctors. Sometimes diagnoses are difficult to obtain when we are not able to ask the patient directly where they hurt or what sy... read more

South Rhea Animal Hospital is a great pet place. South Rhea Animal Hospital may be the most expensive of the two in the county but you can't put a price on the health and well being of a beloved family member. I have seen first hand the caring and professionalism of the doctors and staff and it is a wonderful thing to be a part of. Yes sometimes health care is expensive but let's face it nothing comes cheap in this world anymore. The quality of care and understanding at this clinic may surprise a lot of people. Give it a try... read more

Top Dog!! I have taken my pets to South Rhea Animal Hospital for over 7 yrs and cannot express how grateful I am for the wonderful love and care that they have received each and every time I have walked through the door. The staff have welcomed me with a warm smile and my animals with a friendly scratch behind the ear, and they have always demonstrated professionalism and compassion in each circumstance that I have encountered. I have personally witnessed each of the doctors as well as the staff give of their own time and mo... read more

Great Vets and Staff at South Rhea We moved new to this area and selected South Rhea as our vet about a year ago. We have received the most professional care and great kindness to our dogs. Dr.Nix has seen us on both routine and sudden calls as our Labs tend to eat things they should not. His willingness to share his own personal experiences with his pets has been insightful as well. The costs for services here are comparable with what we were paying for a top notch vet in another state. We had a very bad experience with tre... read more

Very Expensive Nearly new hospital, hasnt been built long. They, however, are very expensive. We go to the animal hospital in north rhea county. It is older, and I am not sure how up to date their facilities are, but for just regular checkups/shots, they are very affordable. So I wouldnt recommend going to the newer one, when you have the option of going to the other one.

Nix Jeff Dvm and Staff have prolonged our little girl's life! Dr. Nix, Dr. Thompson and staff have been our animal caretakers and doctors for years. We cannot speak highly enough of everyone there. Most recently, our oldest little f/m terrier went in for a teeth cleaning and routine checkup & was found to have too much protein in her urine. That was last Nov. Dr. Nix not only diagnosed this very accurately but has prolonged her precious life past an average maybe 6 months. We were overwhelmed and called everywhere wanting to... read more

Money isn't everything I have taken my animals to Dr Nix and his associates for over 8 years, since we moved to the area. I cannot say enough good things about them, they truly are lifesavers. I have many animals, and Dr Nix and his crew have seen us through kidney failures in old cats, urinary blockages, surgeries, blood disorders, epilepsy, and the inevitable aging friends who need a little help out of this world and into the next. They are unfailingly professional, kind, and caring. The costs may seem steep but they never... read more
