My wife and I are rescuing a lab/mix... She reached out to explain we are rescuing, looking to request a new patient application and if AHP could be our reference. Being new to the area and needed a local vet reference for our application. We figured we would call our closest vet; however, the woman on the phone REFUSED to offer help. Most phone calls do not end with my wife (a customer service rep) sobbing. But this one did! Thanks 'Karen'... FYI, we called SEVERAL local vets afterwards, they where shocked my wife was treated this way as our situation is standard routine... FOUND A CARING, RESPECTABLE

Buddy has had a bad experience with another vet hospital and was very apprehensive. Kristen and her Tech were incredible, the gentle and calm approach with Buddy made him come out of his carrier on his own. Buddy's prognosis was not was I was hoping for, however Kristen was professional and sensitive on explaining what we could actually do. I will not hesitate on taking my other family members to this hospital for care. You all not only put Buddy at ease during his visit but also put me at ease Thank You.

Was better under previous ownership. They made a lot of policy changes that drove clients away.. But still a decent practice.

My family have been going here with all of our pets. They have been here for the ups and downs in our past experiences.We have had 6 pets visit here, and they all love it. All staff workers are so nice, and the cats and dogs love leaving with a treat. We are glad we had this Animal Hospital do the honors of putting down our dog.
