The staff at Coulter Animal Hospital are wonderful. They treat Bruce the Boxer so well, greeting him like an old friend at every visit, so Bruce loves to go to the vet! The expertise of the veterinarians and their staff has kept Bruce healthy and happy for going on six years now. We love Coulter Animal Hospital!

As always, our pup was taken care of just like all the others before her. She was Spayed and is healing up fast and doesn’t even try to lick or scratch at the stitches which are dissolvable stitches. I think this is why they don’t even bother her but all our previous dogs had stitches that had to be removed. That hard stitch has to be the reason it drove our other dogs crazy. That’s my opinion only but makes sense being a heavy machinery mechanic for 38 years. No different than a zip tie vs a nylon strap holding hoses or electrical together. Less friction.

The Coulter Animal Hospital has been great for my family over the last eight years. Dr. Hodges and Dr. Kinser are friendly and informative and care greatly for their patients. The staff that works alongside them are excellent. I can almost always get an appointment right when I need one and the office itself is always immaculate. If I weren't moving out of state I wouldn't take my pets anywhere else!

We love Dr. Hodges. We have been using him as our veterinarian for almost 30 yrs. He has always been kind and good with our pets and kind and gentle with us when our pets were old and sick and time to leave us. I wouldn't know what to do without him! His staff too has always been kind and considerate. Thank you for all you've done to make our pets happy and healthy! Camie Johnson

Dr. Kinser is the best vet we have used to care for our fur babies. I have had pets for 40 years and she is the most competent and compassionate! She is knowledgeable and kind. The continuity of care and time she spends with the patients/family are unparalleled. The staff is top notch too!
