I just had my ancient rescue cat, Ruthie, put to sleep after a valiant struggle with renal failure. I am so grateful for the gentle and compassionate care she received this morning from Dr. Milici and the staff. Thank you for being there for me and my pets for over 40 years.

Dr. Runley is an absolute gem! She was so patient and understanding of my foster dog’s hearing and visual impairments. After my experience with taking my foster dog there, I am switching vets and will start taking my own dog there. There’s something to be said about good doctors! Be it for humans or our pets!

I don’t have the words to express my gratitude to Dr. Ludwig and Dr. Figueroa and Jessica. I was in and out of the ER vet more times than I would like to admit and sadly, my sweet 14-year-old pup went to heaven. As a medical doctor, I was so impressed by the medical knowledge, treatment plan and bedside manner. They treated her and I with the… utmost respect and compassion. Their prices are reasonable which allows pet owners to be able to properly care for their pets. I feel beyond confident and grateful that they can care for my younger dog and any other furry companions I bring into

Amazing and friendly staff! They took amazing care of our fur baby Shakira. Well worth the drive if you can't wait for the clinic to come to Ridgecrest. Thank you so much for the care and love you showed… Shakira! She is on recovery day 1 post surgery and doing amazing. 💜 She had dental work, mass removal and spay all the same day. Thank you again Bishop Veterinary Hospital and Dr. Nicole Milici for the amazing care you give to our fur babies!

After calling every veterinarian in Ridgecrest, Bishop Veterinary Hospital was the only one willing to see our sick puppy right away. Within 20 minutes they had diagnosed him with Parvo and given him fluids for… the drive to Bishop. After dropping him off in Bishop the doctors updated us twice a day as to how he was doing. After four days Gus was strong enough to come home. We are beyond happy with the care they provided our little fur baby.

Dr. Ludwick is not only a great vet, he has the compassion and patience to skillfully handle a fearful horse. We really appreciate the care our animals are receiving.
