Dr. Kilpatrick is THE BEST. So knowledgeable. Reasonably priced, I've been to cheaper but so worth his knowledge. Especially for elderly dogs. So sad I had to move away.

The staff are knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. Jeanette came out to discuss a situation with my Ivan boy. The Doc came out when both my cats were finished and explained their individual skin issues to me.They are like family to me. They have been my Veterinary hospital for over 15 years.

Don't sacrifice your hard earned money or your pets health by coming here. I've brought my two dogs here for years because I thought this was a good vet, even though the services are overpriced, but today I found out how wrong I was. I had surgery scheduled for my dog for today. He had a pre-op appointment on Friday and was cleared for surgery. Brought him in today and they anesthetized him and shaved his belly. Doc then noticed a severe skin rash (which he has been seen for multiple times by this vet) and cancelled the surgery. The rash was visible without his fur being shaved and was present

Kirklands daughter took a collie puppy from Heathland Collies. She contacted me under false pretenses giving me a phony address. She told me she lived on 5 acres with her father After she took the puppy she refused to respond to requestsfor information as to the puppies welfare so I called the fathers office since she did not return calls and emails and learned she lived in an apartment in Tamps I never sell a collie puppy to an apartment dweller and she knew that. I questioned her about where she lived over and over and she lied. She was supposed to pay for the puppy through PayPal that did not

They took my friends dog as an emergency. The vet had no problem answering our many questions.She had to end up being euthanized. They were so thoughtful and compassionate with both my friend and Kayla the dog. Helped make a really heartbreaking situation a little easier. The office was clean, neat. The lady at the front desk was so friendly. I will absolutely be taking my Luca there 🧡RIP KAYLA you surely are missed
