Nashville Veterinary Specialists + Animal Emergency

I can’t begin to say how grateful I am for the staff at the Nashville Veterinary Specialists, from the front desk staff that greeted us, to the vet tech who took down our pets information and especially for Dr. J. Vancil. Dr. Vancil actually took the time to explain everything and ensured we understood. Dr. Vancil focused on doing the right tests versus the guessing game we’ve seen previously which cost us a lot of money, a lot of time and gave us nothing in return. From our first meeting Dr. Vancil, made us feel as if we were his only patients that day, and walked us through the possibilities in an honest manner. We have a LOT of fur babies and have had our share of veterinary experiences, so speaking from lots of experience, I can honestly say that Dr. Vancil and the staff at the Nashv

The people who work at this place are truly incredible. They went above and beyond to save my sweet Mollie B’s life. Not only with their too notch medical expertise, but also with such compassion and care for her (and I both) in every moment. Thanks to every. single. person we interacted with, I got to witness a true Christmas miracle and see God work through the hands of these people. I will forever be in a debt of gratitude for every day I get to spend loving my girl, and am SO grateful we get to go into this new year together thanks to the team of people who took such phenomenal care of her when she needed it.

Brought my Sphynx, Osiris, in for a preventative echocardiogram and our experience was great! The vibe in the lobby was very cozy and welcoming. The front receptionist was kind and friendly. Dr. Owens was very thorough and personable, and took time to answer all our questions and concerns. We had a wonderful experience overall! We will be coming back for annual scans and are very thankful to have such great doctors taking care of our sweet boy.

They took great care of our 13 year old Corgi Husky mix. They explained every step and procedure before starting. Explaining the risks involved with each step. Pearl is doing great after their care. We were in the area on vacation when she got sick. Thank you NVS for the care you gave Pearl.

My review is on the oncology team, and specifically Dr. Jarrod Vancil. I took my beloved 12ish-year-old pit rescue, Bernie, after our primary vet investigated a lump around his throat for us in the spring. During our initial visit, we found out that he had a thyroid cancer as well as a second mass in his lungs. Dr. Vancil said this was unusual and was straightfoward about best next steps and prognosis of each one. He was very educational and accepted my questons and need for all of the information, but he never made me feel like I was pestering him or talked down to me. We chose chemo pills, and the vet tech was very diplomatic about suggesting alternative pharmacies if cost was an issue. Being in a turbulent financial year, this was much appreciated! We had a checkup and it seemed as th
