You can find just as great veterinary care elsewhere without having to deal with the nastiness of their front staff. Cecil/Cecilia is a nightmare to speak to.

I have been bringing my dog to Park Animal Hospital for years for check ups and now in her old age. I'm so thankful to have Dr. Battersby as her vet and as a resource. He's so thoughtful and caring takes the time to walk through his assessment of a health issue and possible care options. And the staff, Cecile and the whole team, is always so welcoming and helpful. I know if health problems or questions come up, my dog and I are in such good hands.

Exceptional care for my pup. The staff truly cares about your pet and will follow up and take the time to explain the care and concerns that you may have.
