Getting a new kitten is a very special experience with lots of joy, warmth, and laughter. There is a reason why the internet is so full of kitten and cat pictures and videos. Kittens are super fun, loving and entertaining. Kitten care does involve some amount of hands-on attention from human family members.

I had adopted a puppy from a local shelter, about 2 weeks later she got very sick she couldn’t even standup on her own and would not move and her head was bobbing so bad. I knew something was wrong so I brought her here and the vet told me she was okay and to bring her home and she was in fact NOT okay. The vet says about 4 times that she most likely got into “marijuana” which it really insulted me after I told her multiple times that was not the case and there was no way possible that could be the case. They basically told me take my dog and she’ll be fine. I had to tell them I wouldn’t

I found a kitten at my Job before Ida hit. She still needed shots and a checkup. MSAH is hands down the best to take your pet. Setting the appointment was so effortless, and the Vets and the staff were very amazing. I would definitely send as many pet owners as humanly possible. Allie and I felt right at home.

My super cute but admittedly naughty cat accidentally ate our dog’s medicine. We were worried that she may have gotten poisoned. Within minutes the vet was on the phone with us to explain treatment options and to detail potential complications that could arise. When we brought her in for treatment they immediately took her in the back to assess her vitals. I can’t say enough great things about this clinic. Their receptionists, vet tech and veterinarian were so responsive and just altogether wonderful. 10/10!

I'm making this my regular veterinary clinic. All 3 of my dogs will be coming here in the future, as the care and compassion we were given on Saturday was just what I was looking for in a veterinarian. Dr. Meredith was kind, and addressed my immediate concern with Jake. I only wish I had thought to check them out sooner, rather than for an emergency.

Dr.Meredith and the staff are super friendly made my 11 year dog who was severely sick and myself feel so comfortable not only gave me options financially. I have been to other vets where I felt like just another number, but everyone here understood my dog is my family and made me feel at ease that everything was going to be okay! Def recommend!

My poor little kitten got very sick and I was able to get him in right away. They were very kind and generous and took great care of him. I was even able to bring him back the next day. I was unable to successfully administer his medication and they took care of that as well very quickly. Happy they were able to set my mind at ease at such a stressful time.
