VCA Indian Land Animal Hospital

🐾 VCA Indian Land Hospital – Compassionate, Collaborative, Exceptional Care From the moment we stepped into VCA Indian Land Hospital in April 2024, we knew we’d found a special place for our pups’ veterinary care. Our very first experience felt like more than an appointment—it was a true partnership focused on wellness. The team didn’t just treat symptoms, they listened to our pup’s entire story and educated us every step of the way. Fast forward to 2025, and our second pup joined the VCA family too. Dr. Katharyn Gilmartin, Medical Director, DVM, has earned our full trust and admiration. She embodies excellence in veterinary medicine and brings genuine heart to her work. She takes time to explain our pups’ care plans, answer our questions, and walk alongside us in making informed decisio

We went to this vet from 2018 until 2024. We didn’t have any issues until our Cavapoo got sick in 2024. This vet misdiagnosed him multiple times and we repeatedly took him back to the office because he wasn’t improving and still wasn’t eating or drinking. Then urgent care vet diagnosed an obstruction very late at night and recommended following up with our vet the next morning to see if he passed the object or needed surgery. Indian land VCA wouldn’t even see our dog that next morning. We called repeatedly. Half of the time when you call they don’t answer the phone. When they finally answered they said they wouldn’t see our dog and wouldn’t let us wait at the office to work our dog in when they had time. Our dog was not eating or drinking and was in pain. The VCA receptionist said that t

I highly recommend Dr. Gilmartin at VCA Indian Land Animal Hospital. She truly stands out with her genuine care and unmatched compassion for every animal she treats. Dr. Gilmartin goes above and beyond to ensure pets receive the best possible care. Our family is so grateful to have found her. If you’re looking for a vet who will treat your furry family member like their own, Dr. Gilmartin is the one!

Dr. Shaw is the only vet that I 100% trust to take care of my fur babies. I’ve know her for over 15 years. She cared for my childhood dog and treated her as if she was her own. When the end was near for her, she personally made sure we had everything we needed to cope and came in on her off time to put her to rest. I’ll never forget what she did for my Lucy and what she did for me. Now, she’s the only one I trust with my dog Emmy. I drive almost an hour to come and see her because I trust her that much. Thank you Dr. Shaw for everything you’ve done for me and my babies over the past 15+ years. You are truly a one of a kind special person who goes above and beyond the call of Vet.

Been coming to them for years every month, for the same exact treatment and they consistently demand a full exam (MONTHLY) completely over charging us for the SAME problem. They are great at taking your money, but not fixing the problem or recognizing it’s a chronic issue that has been going on for years and sometimes it’s ok to just care about the family in addition to the animal. We won’t be back. UPDATE: Since I'm unable to respond to the Vet's response - when I called for an appointment I clearly communicated that there would be medicine involved (it's the same visit we do every time) and the tech scheduled our appointment with a tech instead of a doctor. We had a cytology done in July with our vet in Hilton Head that your team declined to let us use. The treatment was not different,
