Preventive care

Hands down the BEST animal hospital in town! We took two of our dogs in due to liver conditions, surgeries, and so on. Both of our babies were taken care of & in good hands. Dr. Fink & his team were kind, attentive, professional, and remarkable all around! We are so lucky to have Dr. Fink! Thank you Hilton Family!! We highly RECOMMEND this vet!!

Just took our dog Dixie here to be seen. She has been having a real hard time with her symptoms and she saw Dr. Ward. What an amazing and caring doctor!!! Her bedside manner is the best ive ever seen in a vet. She was extremely thorough in explaining everything and we took all of her recommendations as far as testing goes. It is obvious her goal is to provide the best care possible for all her patients and not "upsell" like i have seen with other places. While we have a long road ahead of us with testing to figure out whats going on with our sweet girl, we have the utmost confidence that she is in the best hands possible with Dr. Ward and staff at Hilton Vet Hospital. Her vet tech was absolutely just as amazing and caring. I think her name is Brooke and I apologize if I got the name wrong. Hilton is the only place we will be taking our animals to for care. What a great place!!

I switched to Hilton after leaving my previous RDVM. I couldn’t be happier and more impressed. Dr K is amazing. I had a 4.5yr old chihuahua (Blackjack) that she saw one time before he passed away. He had numerous medical problems due to being inbred. When I got him I knew he wouldn’t live a long life. Dr K listened to his whole life story intently, consulted with Dr Fink on a few things with his seizure medication and would text to check on him. She called me one day about one of my other pets, and before she got off the phone she asked me how Blackjack was doing with his meds. I really loved that even though the initial phone call wasn’t about him, she still wanted to know how he was. When he passed, even having only seen him once, I got a beautiful condolence card in the mail. They truly care here. I really can’t say enough nice things about Dr K. Thank you for all you do!

Back in May my senior cat Gucci started showing UTI symptoms and had little to no appetite. He would improve with antibiotics but then rapidly decline once we finished them. He was wasting away and his previous regular vet all but prepared me for his passing, but sent us for an ultrasound. I went to Hilton because they could get us in before anyone else. We saw Dr. McCaron and she determined we were focused on the wrong thing and helped us to discover it was actually a chronic GI issue causing the problem. With the help of Blue Pearl in Chesapeake Gucci now has a diagnosis and a treatment plan. The staff at Hilton are kind and courteous. They handled my cat with compassion and treated him like an old friend while he hissed at them. Dr. McCaron has been amazing, transparent and professional while still showing care for her patients. I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Hilton Animal Hospital. I’ll be switching all of my pets over permanently, because I feel like I’ve finally found a vet I can trust.

Dr.Fink and his staff office and techs have been nothing more than wonderful to me and my fur babe Wingnut. I have been a dog owner all my life and visited many clinics over the years but this team is far more superior in kindness and compassion. I will continue to drive across the water to receive their care for the remainder of Wingnuts veterinary needs.
