We were so pleased that Dr. Jennifer was able to diagnose our dog Pepper. The Doctor's calm approach reassured us that should feel better after a few days. She was right! Thank you Avon Animal Hospital!

After looking for a veterinarian to care for my dogs I came across Avon animal hospital and after calling and speaking to the receptionist who gave me a lot of information I made an appointment for one of the dogs and after meeting the veterinarian who was kind, caring, and compassionate and loved the dog, I found myself taking all of my animals there from the other animal hospital. They really care dont charge an astronomical amount of money to see my dog. I will recommend them to everyone I know!

After years of bouncing around from place to place trying to find a good fit and fair prices, I think we finally found a match. Weve only been going here for a year, but unfortunately have been frequent fliers.
Dr. Marvin is absolutely fantastic! Ive spent time at other vet clinics wondering if the people working there even like animals. Thats not a question here. She and her staff always smile and pet my animals like they were their own.

Bilbo Baggins, our 14 year old Ragamuffin had a partial blockage in January. Our then vet, 35 minutes away, couldn't get us in. So we went back to Avon, originally left because of a specific breed of dog we had. Dr Marvin and Sarah were wonderful and Bilbo was treated and headed for home in a reasonable amount of time. The silver lining is Bilbo didn't get dreadfully car sick like he did on the 35 minute trip. Had to have the mobile groomer scheduled immediately following his appointment. We could manage him after this visit. Yesterday he went in for his annual visit. A little bit of drool, nothing
