Been going here since I got my first dogs in 1983. The doctors are just natural-born carers and healers. Other staff is long-term, on-the ball, helpful, warm and friendly.

Dr. Hahn has been our cat's vet since kittenhood and has been amazing, kind, and supportive as we've navigated her growing up. The entire practice is incredibly loving, calming, and attentive. They instill a sense of deep trust and true commitment to providing loving care to animals and the kind of patience and consideration pet-parents need. I've never doubted for a second that Northside has Smithers' (the cat) back all the way and will take perfect care of her. A wonderful veterinary practice!

Surprised this place only has 19 reviews so far. I always see happy clients in there. Small practice but always good experiences. Appointments are easy to make and staff will take time to answer any questions you may have during appointment or on the phone. Don't know how rates compare to elsewhere. Animals are expensive - no way around that.

Mary Hahn has been our vet through three chocolate labs. She wrote a personal note when we had to put our oldest down last year. She responds to phone calls regarding concerns promptly. So glad to have found her 13 years ago!
