We have three purebred cats (Havana Browns) and we trust this Veterinary Hospital to give them top-notch care. We specifically use Mara Guth who exudes confidence and authenticity. She is detailed in her exam and is methodical in her approach but she does not raise undo concern. She has always been supported by super nice and caring assistants. From the time you enter the practice, you know you and your pets are in good hands. Fairly easy to get an appointment and we even had an "emergency" for which we were able to get a sa... read more

I even boarded him for a weekend once. The facility is clean and the staff is engaging. I don't make a ton of money and I have always been able to pay out of pocket for his vaccination and check ups.

Hickory Hospital saved my lil dog last week after she was attacked by another dog. They were waiting for her and took her to stabilize her and then to operate and stitch her thigh . They were wonderful, kept us informed as to how she was and then told us how to care for her and gave us medication to help her heal. Thank you.

could not be more pleased . we have an 8 year old English Bulldog who is a huge challenge going to the vet. they worked with us to help his anxiety. Dr Motley was super caring and did not rush us . we drive 40 minutes to this vet because we trust them . they've been our vet for over 16 years . the staff is very pleasant and we feel confident in the practice as a whole.

I am so impressed with this practice. I was a Vet Tech for 9 years so I know the business. I'm now retired. Recently my 15 year old cat, Harley, took a turn for the worse and when she stopped eating I knew it was her time. Blessedly this practice is 24-7 so I was able to help her on a Sunday. The staff was very kind and respectful and treated us well. Harley was allowed to die with dignity. I opted for private cremation and was also impressed with this aspect. I picked up her cremains in a very nice Hickory Run bag with our ... read more

We brought our senior pup here for a biopsy and 2 surgeries last year when we were new to the area and our vet in NYC could not perform the biopsy for 1.5 months. We researched vets in the area and decided on Hickory due to the doctor's backgrounds, services offered, and reviews for medical care. Thankfully they were able to take our boy quickly. Both times we had great experiences with Dr Dobbins. She clearly explained what they found and our options. Dr. Dobbins communicated with us during and after surgery, answered a... read more

We had an emergency this past weekend and our own Vet's office had closed for the day. I called several places who would not even consider an appointment because we were "new." When I called Hickory, they were very accommodating and told us to come right over. They came right out and took our dog inside. Communication, I think was great and the Vet called a few days later to check on Teddy. I was very much pleased with the staff and the vet.

The whole team at Hickory -- from the friendly and welcoming ladies at the front desk, to the patient and caring techs and assistants, to the AMAZING doctors -- is just phenomenal. When two of my pets, Katie and Monkey, had some serious health challenges, Dr. Swann and Dr. Lands in particular, were phenomenal in their thoroughness, diligence with follow-up and patience in answering my questions.Their level of service is the best I've ever seen in Vet care, and Dr. Lands in particular will take the time -- even on his days of... read more
