Brielle Animal Clinic

Dr. Spangle and the staff were always great to deal with. When my dog was getting older and near the end they were honest and forthcoming about his condition and our options. Thank you so much for taking care of my Rocky who has now passed on.

I have NEVER met a veterinarian that I didn’t like, but Dr Spangle at the Brielle Animal Clinic has exceeded my worst nightmares.
Don’t get me wrong, the women working in the Clinic were sweet and kind, you could not have asked for better… but the Vet… oh, the Vet…
We were first time patients, new to the area, and chose to bring our 30lbs dog to the Brielle Animal Clinic out of convenience. Dr Spangle was rude, and seized every opportunity to slight my husband and I. Our dog was in to have sutures removed, which requires being held down. He fussed for a minute, but them calmed himself, but Dr Spangle would not stop saying how out of the ordinary it was for our dog to struggle, how our dog needed more discipline, and how he could clearly see why other veterinarians would turn us away.
Now… I’m just going to throw this out there… but these are dogs. if you hold them down and then begin picking at one of their wounds, they will struggle. Frankly, I thought our dog did very well– he didn’t bite, bark, or growl… So for Dr Spangle to make such curt, abusive comments when it was so uncalled for was a direct disparagement of my husband and I as pet-​parents. The only redeemable part of the visit were the sweet women.
Dr Spangle is nothing more than an ornery man. Spare yourself. Go somewhere else.
