The staff was so friendly, helpful, and considerate! They made us feel at home, printed a pre-invoice before anything so I could financially prepare, and had great follow-up care!

Great experience with our cat. We are new the area and so happy to have a great vet so close. I walked in to make an appointment and see if they are accepting new clients. They made an appointment for the next business day and we were in and out less than 20 minutes!

Everyone there was absolutely amazing! The front desk even called today to follow up and make sure he was doing okay after his shots. Affordable and the staff is fantastic. They just gained a forever client for all my fur babies.

They were amazing with my fur baby! Took care of her like she was one of their own. Staff and physician were very thorough and reasonably priced. They called and followed-up the next day to make sure we didn’t need anything. Highly recommend!

First time visiting and the staff was cheerful and friendly and put my anxious put (and me!) at ease instantly. I felt like our tech truly listened and offered suggestions that fit with my lifestyle and standard of care. Cannot recommend enough!

River City Veterinary Hospital is my new Vet. After leaving another Vet I had been going to for seven years and my late Parents used for 38 years. No more. I had to bring my cat in because he wasn't feeling well. He is 16 years old. They did a Senior Fel Early Detection Profile that included blood work but the exam was done with me in the same room. Yes they took him to another room to do the blood work. Then we left for home and the next day I got a call from the Vet asking how my cat was doing. This was my first time getting a call the day after an exam. Then I got a call from the Doctor on the blood work that was done. No Diabetes, no other major problems. Just a better wet diet and things have calmed down A lot. I felt so much better being I and my cat was truly cared for by the whole team at River City Veterinary Hospital in Jax/Fl.

Absolutely 💯 incredible. The Vet and all of the staff went above and beyond for our sweet furbaby! Brought my Gal in for Labrella, and they were able to help her.They called to check on her next day! That's unheard of these days. They treat you like Family here. I'm thankful for them! They've given My Girl extra time here with us.Thank you for love and kindness ❤️ 💕

The experience isn’t great due to my fur baby needing urgent care and prognosis given. However, my fur baby wasn’t denied treatment due to my financial setbacks or inability to pay in full. I can’t express how much that meant to me because I felt so helpless as if I could not provide for my baby or take away her discomfort and pain. Thank you for the care provided. God Bless.

Michelle and Eleece were an amazing duo that kept me updated about my cat. All of the staff are amazing but with my most recent trip both Michelle and Elise were there to comfort not only Jubilee but myself. I can’t thank this vet office enough for being affordable, and so compassionate for all four of my pets. I constantly recommend this vet office to everyone I know because of the staff and treatment and affordability. Thank you from Venus, Anubis, Jubilee, and Marlowe’s Mommy’s!!

We have a dog that on Sunday, 3/17/2024 was limping. On Monday, 3/18 we contacted her vet and was able to get in that day. They did an X-ray and reveled an partial break on her paw. Gave her a shot, some meds and she is healing. Thank you to Dr Paul & staff for the quick turn around @ River City Vet.

I just love all of you, and the friendly way you treat my cat, "Boo." She leaves home only once a year, and that is to visit you. She doesn't like the needle, so getting her in her cage is challenging. I'm so sorry she "hissed" at you, and you weren't able to clip her nails. She is a feral rescue and didn't even "meow" for 3 years. After 6, she realized she can "hiss" and be threatening. Once back home, she cuddled in my lap and allowed me to clip them without even a wiggle. Thank you for being so kind and caring. Boo and I will definitely see you next year.

My little Chihuahua was frantically itching herself, and neither of us were getting any sleep. Horrible situation! I called River City and they made an appointment for her that same day. Dr. Qualls took the time to listen to me, examined Ella and made his recommendations. She improved that same day. What a relief! And they called the next day to see how she was doing. Excellent service, from desk to tech to vet - all great! I am never going anywhere else.

We've been coming here for 3-4 years now and this was our favorite visit! My babygirl was so comfortable this visit, both my tech and Dr welcomed my girl with so much excitement and love, that she almost forgot where she was lol! I really enjoyed this Dr she was very informative and genuinely cared about my concerns, Thank you so much the whole staff was amazing!

I absolutely love the people that work here and their facility. Had an emergency with my cat and they were able to squeeze us in last minute. Dr. Morilla and the tech (sorry don't remember her name) were so sweet and comforting in the chaos and stress of the situation. I 100% recommend anyone to bring their fur babies here. Thank you all so much!

This visit was an urgent matter, they got us in pretty quick. The medical assistant was very attentive and prompt! They even call us the day after to check on my dog.

Incredible and consistent care of our pets. We’re not sure what we would do without River City Vets. Staff is knowledgeable and caring. Honestly my pets gets better medical care than I do!

Unfortunately our poor Baby (cat) had an inoperable tumor and for months we just tried to let her eat what she wanted and just loved on her until we could not hang on to her any longer. The day after Christmas this year it became apparent to us that she was suffering. We had never been to this office before. We explained our situation and brought her in to meet the very kind and compassionate staff at River City. They accessed the situation and went over the process with us. We had been through it before and our experience there was absolutely beautiful. They were very respectful and professional during our visit. About a week later we recieved this heart felt card from the staff. We can't say enough good things about our visit.

The staff and clinicians are very helpful and caring of our furry friend (Buddy) and never try to push other services on us. We get him there, much against his wishes, and they take over and calm him down.

I would like to say that this is one of the best vets that I’ve ever been to. They are very helpful and very caring to the animals and I could honestly say I enjoy taking my animals there because they are treated so well I have even taken feral cats there that I’ve had they’ve gotten sick and they help me with them and that meant the world to me.

Wonderful place! All of the staff members are super friendly, are always so excited to see my babies, and take such good care of them! My concerns are always heard and they try their best to work with you. They fit you in within a reasonable time and their prices are fair. Would recommend to anyone!

Staff is always so polite. They never try to tell me to do anything that isn't ACTUALLY needed. Makes me feel very good to know I can trust these people with my pups. I drive 30 minutes past multiple vet offices much closer to me, just to go to River City Veterinary Hospital.

Huge thanks to River City Animal Clinic, and Dr Huitt for saving my dog Jakes life!We had brought him to another Vet for years, until he got sick recently. He hadn’t eaten in days and could barely stand. I took him to our old vet several times and he said “he looks fine to me” and told me to try giving him chicken. For our otherwise energetic 4 y/o dog, one missed meal is very strange, never mind 4 days without food.He was getting increasingly weak and time was running out to figure out what was wrong.After giving up on our former Vet, we gave River City a call.Dr Huitt worked acted quickly to figure out what was going on with him and provide the treatments he needed. I really liked how he spent time researching to determine an especially tricky diagnosis. He also took time to show me Jakes labs and explain what could be causing it, and our next steps.The vet techs and the team of front desk staff also kept me well informed about cost, and most importantly how Jake was doing during his hospitalization.We are so happy to have Jake home, healing and looking better than he has in weeks. I can’t thank Dr Huitt and the team at River City enough for their compassion and hard work during a really scary time.Photo of Jake (golden) and his little brother Cooper (spaniel)

I had never used this establishment before but called them when I had an emergency with my dog. They got me in quickly and were wonderful. They took her back quickly and were so good with her. They worked with me on the course of treatment, giving me two options. This is one of the friendliest places I have ever been. I will definitely return and will refer to everyone.

This veterinarian hospital is really good, they always give estimates so I always know how much procedures are going to cost and that's really necessary right now with everything being so expensive! The staff is great! One of my dogs are a little challenging but they are so understanding and good with her.
