Dr Mara Guth, formerly of Caring for Cats in Manayunk is at Hickory Vet now. She is the best cat I've ever dealt with in over 40 years of being a cat parent. She really knows her stuff and I trust her completely. 

Business response:

We're honored to hear about your positive experience with Dr. Mara Guth at Hickory Vet. We are very fortunate to have her at our practice! Thank you for your review.

We came to Hickory Vet to see a vet. oncologist. Dr. Binstock is wonderful! She is empathetic and understanding. She explained everything and gave us printed info on every step and week of chemo. The staff has been great. Also the waiting area is very spacious which is great for nervous dogs. 

Business response:

Thank you for your wonderful review. Dr Binstock really cares about her patients and we are happy you had a positive experience. We hope all goes well with your pup.

Just spent 2 1/2 hours waiting for a cardiac test and the results. The place seemed chaotic and we could not get a straight answer as to when we could take our pet home. Very disappointed. I wish I could offer a better review, but we were disappointed.

I would not reccomend Hickory Vet clinic. I took my pup there late one evening last week because her anal glands were leaking a red/pinkish fluid. After the examination, the vet said she was perfectly fine and that it was her expelling an infection on her own. I had a gut feeling that something else was going on, but trusted them since they are the professionals. I followed up with my normal vet a couple days later because she was still leaking fluid. They expressed her glands, and they were filled with blood. Even though sh... read more

Everything is awful in this practice. From untrained doctors to poor management. Do not take any animal here. Read all 1 star services from this place. 

Business response:

We are very sorry for the loss of your pet, but as per our 42 min phone conversation with Hickory's owner discussing the medicine Hickory provided, we stand by all our doctors and our care.

I was referred to Hickory Vet by a dear friend of mine. The visit couldn't have gone better! Not only did I get good news in regards to my Golden Retriever Bella, but the staff at the hospital was AMAZING!! Stacy ( the doctor) explained everything I needed to know in a way I would understand. She was so kind and supportive with my worries and eased my heart and mind with her kind words. She was loving on Bella and her approach to me was as if I knew her forever!! She was calm, understanding, and the best vet oncologist I wou... read more

Business response:
