Dr. Thompson and her team at Healing Hands have been a godsend! 3 months ago my dog was diagnosed with Fibrocartilaginous Embolism (FCE) and I was referred to their practice from MissionVet who originally diagnosed him. Weve undergone hydro-therapy sessions, acupuncture, and laser therapy and over the course of these past 3 months Ive seen significant improvement in my dogs mobility and functionality of his hind legs. I wouldnt have been able to get Comet to where he is without their guidance and support. I specifically want to shout out Sam & Ellie who work with Comet frequently in his

Healing Hands has been the BEST vet hospital weve ever been too, and I dont write reviews often. Starting when we first walked into the front door we knew our dog Apollo was going to be well taken care of. The front desk ladies were So kind, gentle and care individually for each pet! Susie, who brought us into our own room and inquired most questions, very compassionate. Listened to everything we were saying and gave us so many affordable options! Doctor Thompson who was our main vet is the best. Shes professional, educated, compassionate and truly cares about helping your fur baby. She

I think it's wonderful that Dr. Thompson offers the holistic therapies she does and from my few experiences with her, she seems like a fine vet. This review is not about Dr. Thompson's abilities as a vet. It is to warn any low income pet owners to be very careful about missing appointments here. After a family emergency, I mixed up my appointment time, had to reschedule, and was charged $50 on top of the $400 I paid ahead of time for the service. The receptionist who informed me was not at all apologetic, which made a bad situation feel worse. I respect that this is a business, but I would hope

Very happy with the results my Dachshund is getting through acupuncture, laser and water therapy. My guy has IVDD and does experience flare-ups with his back and is in pain. These various therapies as well as medication makes him comfortable and his healing time is reduced. So happy I found this facility.
