Dog visit for rewrap of broken leg with Dr D, who I didn't see during this visit. I was told 40 min and don't go far. 90 minutes later were finally leaving!! No one explained why it took 90 minutes instead of 40 minutes?! Dog slept and rested rest of the day. We went out to dinner for a few hours and my camera showed very little activity. Arrived back home and cast/wrapping just slipped off dog's leg!! Next day back to vet again! They charged for redoing wrapping and sedation again!!
Obviously, the first vet did not do a good job or it would never have never fallen off that quickly!!

I highly recommend Rolling Hills. The staff is great and friendly and caring. The vets are awesome. I live an hour away and still take my dog to Dr. Giveden. I won't go anywhere else.

We were a new patient today and called after four other vets, including our own, were unable to see our dog after 24 hours of vomiting. The staff were all so nice and accommodating with getting our dog in to be seen ASAP. The vet tech (i believe her name was Ashlyn) and Dr. G were both extremely thorough, patient and kind. They both took the time to explain every step, provide tips and address questions. Dr. G provided treatment options and was upfront with costs. The staff all took precautions and care with Covid safety and we just cannot say enough great things about this vet office! We will
