I highly recommend 385 animal hospital. This is the second time they have literally saved one of my pets lives. They are quick to respond, friendly and knowledgeable. I will gladly bring all of my animals the hour and a half drive here for their quality veterinary Care from now on.

We are on vacation. Traveling from Chicago to Vegas. We were parked at the golf course in town for the night where my Scottie pup could run around the grounds. There was dry grass that he got into and we brushed him once he was done playing. While brushing him, we noticed a growth. We suspected a tick and tried to remove it but not successful. We thought maybe a cyst or something. I looked for vets in the area and called 385 animal hospital in the morning. They got us right in at 10am. The tech and vet were both SO nice and so helpful. They were really gentle with my puppy- no barking or growling from my pup at all and he usually doesn’t like the vet. They examined him and reported it was an infected gland. Whew. They advised to remove it as it could grow bigger. They said 15 mins and we would be good to go. They removed the growth and cauterized the area. My puppy came to the waiting room wagging his tail and happy. The whole ordeal took a half hour and we were back on the road. $78 well spent for my peace of mind. THANK YOU 385!!! This mama is just so thankful.

We were in Hereford from out of town. Called to see if they had any availability for an emergency. We were told to call our regular vet.

My tom cat was very ill. Dr Chris and Carly were so very conconcernd and even more polite and respectful. They rushed my baby into treatment within five (5) minutes of entering. They worked with me on paying a bill that consisted of three (3) days hospital stay, numerous treatments, etc.... They are "THE GREATEST EVER" I HIGHLY RECCOMEND THEM FOR ANY family who has beloved pets (extended family)
