6/11 was my first appointment bringing my new fur baby in for a exam. From the minute I walked in I knew I made the right choice. The front desk staff were so nice and accomadating, I felt right at home. The physicians who took care of my girl were amazing and so gentle and took the time to explain everything and let me ask all of my questions so i felt comfortable, You can tell they really care about you and your fur baby. I'm so glad I decided to come here thank you so much for taking the time to make us feel comfortable.

As always, the team at Have A Heart treat my girls as if they are their own. Bring in a puppy and they turn into kids seeing a puppy for the first time. We're in good hands.

Have a Heart animal hospital staff were amazing, they are a sister hospital from where we usually go. Our vet called them to see if they could get us in for my Roxy girl who is a 5 year old boxer and they scheduled us right away. We showed up 15 min early and took us right away… the front staff and the vet tech were friendly, understanding and helpful. We got to meet Dr. Nicless and she was very knowledgeable, caring and explained what was happening with Roxy’s leg. They did all the right things for my baby and sent us back home to heal my baby girl back. Dr. Nickless asked for a two week follow up to make sure Roxy has healed right and hoping we don’t need Knee surgery down the road . The cost of the was less than what I was expecting and thankful the staff explained the cost to me before I agreed to it. We also invest in pet insurance so it’s not a big hole in our pocket. Highly recommend them and can’t wait to see the results of my baby girl.

My pup is 13 years old and I've been going to Have a Heart for about 7 years. I've been really lucky in that he hasn't really needed to go to the vet many times in his life, but now that he is older he's had some issues come up and we've been visiting them more often. This past week he has had some stomach issues that were worrying me and they got us in right away and made sure to check him over and run the proper tests. They never push me to do anything excessive test wise and give me a rundown of the price before they proceed just to know what I should expect. Dr. Grambow always explains everything and takes his time and lets you ask all the questions you need. Everyone there is very friendly! I would recommend them to anyone!
