Dr. Hendricks and staff were professional in Reeses care and in her Rainbow Bridge experience. When a pet is more a family member, its important to find a vet that understands responding to the emotional needs of the fur parents, especially when its time for the last goodbye. Thank you Dr. Hendricks and staff

Since they are doing curbside the vet called me while my cats were inside and she was very helpful, answered any questions I had, and explained some stuff that I didn't know about. The person at the front desk is also very nice and helpful. I will be continuing to take my animals here.

I absolutely love this place. They're always so polite and they're gentle with my pup. I now live in Louisville but I still make the 30 minute trip to see them. Completely worth it.
