What a wonderful, compassionate, professional, and very detailed animal clinic! I "inherited" my mother's sweet little 11 year old dog when she lost her battle to cancer earlier this year. The original vet/clinic my mother was taking our dog to closed last year due to the pandemic. Luckily I found Crescent Hill Animal hospital and they accepted us with open arms. Completely satisfied with their exceptional level of service. And I feel very confident that my new best friend is in safe hands. Thank you to *everyone there for helping us during this difficult time. Keep up the FANTASTIC job!

Very nice vets. Got an appt quickly. Don't like that we cannot go in with dogs. Wished I could spend more time with vet less with tech.

Dr. Gries has been nothing short of amazing when caring for our girl, Tabor! They're always so patience, and we always feel very confident of her team and their abilities. Words cannot express how grateful we are for Crescent Hill Animal Hospital and Dr. Gries (also, Jill, Hannah, Rebecca, and the rest of the staff)!

My cat of 12 years recently passed away and I had her put down at another hospital due to timing and location. I took buffy here for a few years and everyone was always so friendly but today takes the cake as… I opened a card in the mail that was signed by the employees here sending their love after my Buffy girl passed . That was so sweet and another reason why I will continue to take my pets here .
