Plum Street Pet Clinic

Dr. Bob could not have been a nicer gentleman. He is professional and courteous. My dog felt right at home in his clinic. His clinic is easy to locate and has affordable pricing and parking. I would recommend this to anyone with pets!

Just… the best. Dr. Bob is kind & has so much experience and knowledge. My cats love him and he somehow turns cats who freaked-​out and cried the whole time in the car into calm, cooperative, and cuddly– on the exam table! Wha? He never suggests expensive treatments when home remedies or wait-​and-​see options are possible (and correct!). Leigh Ann at the front desk is really nice and funny, too.
I’m never taking my 5 cats anywhere else!

Best vet in Cincinnati, the nation, the universe, ect. I have never encountered a more caring/​knowledgable staff anywhere! Dr. Bob sees 2 of our pups, one of them is 2 years and the other he has seen since she was 4 weeks and has helped and answered every question every step of the way. We have been to him for eye infections, spaying, shots, you name it and I leave so satisfied with the help and care I’ve just received. Love it, he and his staff put all other vets to shame.

My 15 year old cat had a stroke 2 months ago. I was prepared to put him to sleep based on what my cat owner friends said who had cats who had strokes. I took him to Dr Bob. After three days Dr Bob said he was worried, James wasn’t eating or walking but he wanted to still keep him and see. The next day James ate and started to walk. Since then James is able to function independently. Not the same cat, but doing so good. I don’t have to hire someone to make sure he eats and drinks etc (which I did). Tomorrow we are going to Dr Biedermans’ to have his toenails clipped. James used to bite them off himself but now he doesn’t. I can’t wait for Dr Biederman to see him.

Love dr bob and his staff! So friendly and informative, very helpful and always calm! Very affordable and you can totally trust your fur baby is in great hanfs

Dr. Bob and Leigh are the absolute best out there. Our family has been coming to them for years. We lost our sweet Ollie last Thanksgiving, following a move to TX, but every step in her care was beyond ideal up to our move. Ollie’s multiple health issues were perfectly cared for with love and kindness. I can’t imagine sharing her experiences with anyone else. She genuinely loved coming to see them both, as did I. Now that we are back and have a brand new pup in our family, we can’t wait to come in. The drive from West Chester is 100% worth it.

Dr Bob is the freaking Cat Whisperer!!! He is the man!
After moving to the area and searching for a good Vet, we found Dr Bob. We enjoy coming to see him!!!

Dr. Bob I’d a magician. He is so calm and gentle with everyone (furry or not) that it is almost hypnotic how that calm spreads to you. No matter how freaked out you are getting about your fur-​baby, his informative, low pressure approach will set you at ease and give you the elusive feeling of control. I wish they also did rabbits, but I am still glad to have such an asset and a resource for the kitties.
They even stock the prescription pet food if you find yourself in a pinch!!!

Dr. Bob has been helping me take care of my cat, Jekyll, for the past few years, and he is easily the best vet I’ve ever been to. He’s very nice, gives you options, and he’s very honest (gives practical solutions instead of sponsored ones.) Jekyll doesn’t seem to mind him much, either!
I bring Jekyll in at least twice a year for urinary issues, and Dr. Bob is always ready to keep him overnight for tests and do what we need to do to get him back on track.

The Plum Street Clinic staff is great! I went because my dog was feeling ill. I usually go to the West Chester Clinic but I recently moved and needed to go somewhere close by. I chose Plum Street because of the awesome reviews! Dr. Bob greeted me right away and there was no wait before my dog received an examination from him. He was very kind and gentle with my dog and she felt really comfortable with him. The only reason for the 4 stars and not the 5 is the price. It is a lot more expensive than my previous vet. A regular office visit is $ 47 dollars (a lot more compared to $ 34 at the West Chester vet.) You do get faster and a more personalized experience there though. I would definitely recommend this clinic especially if you have the money to go there!

Dr. Bob is the best. Used to drive here from Mariemont. He takes great care of the animals and is great at being the soothing voice of reason. Whether it is a routine procedure or an emergency situation Dr. Bob is the one to go to.

We found Plum Street Pet Clinic on Unilocal and thank god we did!
I took my little puperoni Jasmine in today. She is a five pound chihuahua so as you can imagine I was pretty nervous. Dr. Bob greeted us at the door and got us in right away. We went into the exam room and he was very kind and patient with her. Usually she nips, starts shaking and totally freaks out, but you could tell Dr. Bob was a calming force.
We went in because what started off as a little scratch had become a larger bump and we were worried. Instead of telling us what we were going to do (like at other places we have ventured) Dr. Bob told us, «I am here to provide you with information so you can make a decision that is right for you.» He let us know that the bump was a cyst but it had not fully attached to the blood vessels yet and could be properly treated with a cortisone shot. Worried that the shot might affect my tiny pup we expressed our concerns and he made us feel that is was the safe way to go.
We went ahead with the shot and he was very gentle. We were in and out in about 20 minutes and the total for the exam was $ 45 and $ 35 for the shot which I thought was reasonable. But most of all we appreciated the one on one attention here. This is not like one of those huge kennels where you are just another number. Dr. Bob is kind, passionate, and most of all treats every animal like it is his own. I cannot recommend this place enough!

I live in Covington and I’m thrilled to have found such a great vet that is also conveniently located! It’s pretty easy to get in for an appointment, the hours are convenient and the staff is very pleasant. Dr. Bob seems to genuinely care about your pet, even calling to check in a few days after we were there for my dog’s persistent limp. And the best part, the treatment he suggested actually worked! Highly recommended!

There are so many great reviews of Plum Street Pet Clinic, and my experience was no different. Been here twice, once for a basic checkup just after adoption and second for an eye infection. Parking is easy and the doctor and nurse at this clinic are great. I love their always positive attitude when dealing with me and my pet.
Glad to have found my dogs long term care provider!

We live in Covington and have been seeing a clinic in KY during the entire time we’ve owned our cats. The place we were going just kept getting dirtier, the vets and assistants ruder, and long story short, we were done. A friend recommended us to Dr. Bob, and boy, are we happy!
Our two cats have very unique personalities from one another. Guinness is usually very skittish of new surroundings, and especially new vets who want to poke and prod her. Well, she LOVES Dr. Bob! He is so gentle with her and keeps her calm the whole time. It’s so obvious that he actually cares about the animal, and isn’t just going through the exam in a hurry, like our old vet used to do. He recommended a more frugal option to remove the nasty hairball problem that she was having, as well as making some suggestions for us about how to keep Guinness’ brother, Jameson healthy. He wanted to keep jumping up on the table, even when it was his sister’s turn. Dr. Bob humored him, even though it was interfering with Guinness’ exam. I thought that was awesome.
The cost was very reasonable and I never thought I would say this, but we had a great time at the vet! I think Guinness and Jameson would agree! :)

Dr Bob has been awesome with our new little pup. We’re first time owners and dr bob has walked us through everything we need to know, look out for, or ignore. He has helped calm a scared mommy when our little one has done everything from bump her head hard to hypo-​glycemia. Great office!

Aaaaaaaand, I’ve found a new vet!
Long story short, I web md’d my cat and freaked myself out. He hadn’t eaten anything or drank anything in days and was vomiting profusely. When it turned to foam/spit…I freaked. Called our regular vet as soon as they opened this morning and not only were they rude, they refused to see Leroy Brown (my feline friend) and said that I should call the emergency vet if I was that concerned. Needless to say, I hung up and got straight on Unilocal!
Enter…Dr.Bob!
He actually answered the phone, listened to me and said that even though they swamped to bring Leroy in right away. What!?! This guy is amazing!
Parking was a breeze, walked in and Dr. Bob greeted us. Took us back to an exam room and got to it. He was so great with my cat, gentle and compassionate. Some talking, questions and an x ray later we had a plan of action for a stubborn stuck hairball and I was heading out the door. My bill was also considerably lower than I’ve paid other places for much less. The girl that works the front and assists the Dr is a total sweetheart too. Are these people real?!?
Just walked in the door, got my sick buddy comfy and came straight to the computer to review. Seriously, Dr. Bob is good people and a great vet. We’ve found a new place!

What a great experience my husband and I (and most importantly, our 10 year old cat, Gus) had at Plum Street Pet Clinic! We had been taking Gus and his «siblings» to another clinic for years, but when we moved out of the neighborhood, we decided it was time to find a doctor closer to home. I am so glad we decided on Dr. Bob!
Clean waiting room and exam rooms, fantastic care, and lots of expert advice from Dr. Bob wound up costing much less than I expected. Who knew that you could get so much more customer service for your money at a small veterinary clinic! It even has a great location and plenty of easy parking (metered street parking and a pay lot across the street). This is definitely the place for anyone who lives in or near downtown Cincinnati and wants top-​notch care for their pets.
p. s. Gus is all better from his upset stomach. Thanks, Dr. Bob! :)

I LOVE this place! I just adopted a dog from a local shelter and a friend recommended that I check out Dr. Bob and the Plum Street Pet Clinic. It was great for someone who lives downtown or in Over-​the-​Rhine.
I walked Eli, my new dog, for his Saturday morning check up. It was our first visit and I felt very welcomed. The staff was great and Dr. Bob answered all my questions. Eli had a cough and Dr. Bob gave me some antibiotics. They were extra he had on hand so he didn’t charge me.
Dr. Bob answered all the questions that I could come up with as a new pet parent.
I hope I don’t have to spend to much time with Dr. Bob, but if Eli does get sick I feel confident that Plum Street Pet Clinic will be there to help!

Wow. I have NEVER met a vet clinic who was this great to me or my pet. I just purchased a dog from the SPCA a few weeks ago and have turned out to be a mother hen to my little doggie. I planned on taking him to the vet although he had already been in May because he was due for his rabies shot.
Well, in trying to be through, I have been searching Unilocal and calling all over the place to find the perfect vet for my dog, Zombie. He’s been through alot in his life already and I want the rest of his life to be perfect so this is a huge decision.
Early this morning he woke up in serious pain and was crying and Unilocaling up a storm. I picked him up and that seemed to make him worse. I panicked because I didn’t know what to do for him. I hopped on Unilocal and came across this place and called as soon as they opened at 7:00 a.m.
I expressed my concerns and that I had to be at work by noon and the girl on the phone told me that wouldn’t be a problem. She got us in at 9:00 this morning! He got his rabies shot, a general check and had his legs examined since that seemed to be where he was having the issues with pain.
Dr. Bob, gave him a clean bill of health and explained that sometimes small dogs sprain their legs when they jump up and off stuff. He thinks that may be the case. He told me that we could X-​Ray my little guy, but he said, «Honestly at this point, I don’t think there is a reason to do that. and I’d just be running up your bill.» How is that for honest???
Anytime I have any issues with my little guy. I feel great knowing I have a place to take him, and the prices are great compared to most other pet clinics. Thank you Dr. Bob for putting my mind at ease. :)
