Everyone was knowledgeable and very friendly to my cat who was very scared. Sound medical advice and great price, as I have had him in at least 4 different clinics throughout the years (he is around 12 years old or so), and even suggested preventative blood work on to ease any of my concerns. Dr. Bart, Dr. Megan, and Dr. Beth are all amazing and really care about my "son" and all concerns that I addressed. Highly recommend! And their veterinary team is really knowledgeable and understanding to everyone. Thank you Heatherdowns veterinary clinic for all you do! You guys are awesome!

We love Dr. Bart Veterinarian and staff. Been trusting him for 18 years now. Dr. Bart cared for my childhood dog Sam (poodle) for 11 years..We adopted him at 7 and he lived until 18 years old. Now my furbaby Sunday (jack russell/dachshund mix) goes to Heatherdowns for the best care. They respond with updates during and after surgical procedures, suggest important things (like microchip) during check outs, They have their own pharmacy. The staff is so kind and caring because my pup is known to nip sometimes when he is scared. They put a cute little duck bill on him. So precious! Now he isn't scared

We recently moved to the area. Our 4# Yorkie became ill suddenly. The clinic was recommended by a relative. They got us in immediately and took very good care of our fur baby. We appreciate the kindness and care they gave to her. A big Thank You to them.
