Took my German Shepard in in 2020 for a skin tumor biopsy on my dog. When I picked up my dog they had removed 3 fatty skin tumors (harmless) with dozens of stiches and charged us thousands of dollars.

Recently rescued a kitten from the streets, sadly lack of Information in general, could not determine age of cat. she had a flea problem, but medicine was for older cats, they did not attempt to help flea control (comb) the cat. instead just handed us a plastic comb and said try this. Other than that she got her 1st shot, but we don't know anything as we sit outside in the car :D

I had been once before with wonderful results and response to an emergency. Tried to make an online appointment for an annual visit without any response for about a week. I dont necessarily blame the vet but their desk staff should have a second look because they are affecting the perception and service quality. This is a major problem to their business.

Super friendly and timely staff. I was a new patient and they got me in right away and took great care of my 7 year old beagle mix. I'm glad to call them my dog's vet.

After a recent emergency with my dog, I was reminded of why I have been coming to BAH for the past 13 years. They treat my dog as their own and treat me with kindness and respect in every encounter. I was very worried about my dog and even though it was close to closing time, Dr Callahan waited for me and saw my dog. Cindy is compassionate and informative. Every nurse, vet and technician does an excellent job.
