Got right in on time and everyone was phenomenal while working with my shy American Bully Junior…. He warmed up to them by the time we left they made him feel very loved!

I love this Veterinarian and all of the workers, they are wonderful people and my dog loves them so that tells me all I need to about them. They get you in and they are affordable.

I've been going to Kindler Animal Hospital since the late 80's when Dr. Kindler was there. Dr. Moore gives the same excellent services and compassion as Dr. Kindler in my opinion. The staff is always excellent and very knowledgeable. I look at it this way. If I wasn't happy with a doctor I was going to I'd find another one. Almost 40 years of going back to Kindler, that says something about their services.

Pricey but wow what a support cast! Really made the right decision by leaving my other vet. Thorough kind and professional! Would highly recommend!

Dr Moore has been our vet for at least 8 years and always been great however her new partner( Dr Schmid?)I cannot say the same for. Without knowing all of the facts she came out in the middle of a problem and decide I was not welcome at the clinic anymore. I will say I was upset and no doubt loud but she said she heard some one (me) yelling. No I was not. Regardless it does not matter if I was or not the fact is I am done there. In my opinion instead of trying to defuse the problem she made it much worse. So even if she had not told me not to go back I would not be going there.
