River Road Veterinary took such great care of my girl, Zoe Jolie. Thank you to Dr. Brignac and staff for getting through what may be the worst part of 2026 and beyond - saying good bye to my good girl on 2/4/26. I recommend River Road Veterinary to anyone who has a pet they love and care for. This place shows the same love and compassion to your pet and you. Reasonably priced but your can't put a price on the care of your fur baby. It may be a while to heal from losing my Zoe but I'll be fine. I will always be greatful to River Road Veterinary.
