Tipton Veterinary Clinic - Tipton, Indiana

I believe the doctor we saw was Dr. Alderson..or something similar. I will not rag on her skills as a Veterinarian, it’s a hard job and you can see some harsh things. But the way she rushed and how cold she spoke to me was..not great to say the least.
In late November 2020, Our 8 year old Chocolate Lab (Dudley) had a small lump growing in the middle of his snout, it was small and kinda squishy but it was getting bigger. And our normal vet couldn’t get him in for a week, so we went to the Tipton Vet. Dudley was in there for 5 minutes before she brought him out and asked to speak with me. She said he sneezed a bit of blood while in there and said he definitely had Nasal Cancer, which is very aggressive and deadly. She gave a prognosis and pretty much said he had a month left to live, and we should enjoy our time with him. She said if we really wanted to we could go to Purdue, but that it’d be useless since he will die soon.
She said all this without a biopsy, X-Ray, or even a frickin’ blood test. Going off a prognosis while saying he’ll die in a month is extremely unprofessional at best, and irresponsible at worst, God forbid another family puts their dog down before they think they’ll suffer; even if it looked like cancer, there wasn’t a definite answer to be had there.
He’s still alive and very well. The lump is bigger but our regular Vet said it’s allergies, and it’s possibly a big cyst since it’s leaked mucus out recently, but allergy meds and Prednisone keep the swelling way down. It could turn into cancer one day, sure, but for now, he’s still alive and functioning fine.

I took my cat Plato, to get shots, dewormed, as well as an exam. The visit was convenient, fast, and cost friendly.
While I was driving back home, however, I noticed a bunny trying to cross the road. I got out to help it, but I noticed it was in bad shape;both of its back legs were broken and it had died blood as well as an open wound.. I was 5 minutes from the clinic. So I decided to take him back to Dr Alderson & see if she could possibly euthanize him end it's suffering she agreed free of charge.

Such a wonderful woman!

I have been taking my dogs to the Tipton Vet Clinic for a while now, and I would give 10 stars if I could. Dr. Alderson makes sure my dogs are well taken care of, and she always thoroughly answers my questions. And Tiffany is always great in helping get me in for appointments. You can tell how much they both care about their four-legged patients, and that is what makes them so great.

We’ve gone there for years. The veterinary is good the receptionist not so much. I needed more ear meds and she wanted to make another appointment. This was the 2nd time in around 15 years of taking our dogs there that I asked for meds -it just ear meds for cocker spaniels!My husband was in hospice and dying. I’ve always paid all of the bill when we went. The receptionist was always so hateful. She argued I hadn’t been there for months and we had just been there. She wouldn’t listen. I’m done trying to be nice to her. There is no excuse for a receptionist to act that way. I hate driving out of town to the vet but at least they’re kind.

Dr. Alderson was very rough with my cat. made passive aggressive comments about my perfectly healthy cat. she had an attitude the whole time and will never be going back! if i could rate this 0 stars i would.
