The Neighborhood Veterinarian animal hospital is the heart and soul of the solo practitioner, Dr. Sue Bartz. After feeling much disappointment while working in the corporate world, Dr. Sue began making plans to build a hospital based on professional service and personal care. It took well over a year of hard work and dedication to build an animal hospital worthy of such merit. The Neighborhood Veterinarian opened its doors on October 1st of 2001. Though the clientele was small, Dr. Sue and staff made sure each and every client felt secure with their services. Over the years this philosophy has not changed. The clientele continues to grow but personal and professional care remains the same.

We've taken our furry kiddos to Dr. Sue since 2003 and have referred many friends and family to her office too. She and her staff care about the patients and their humans very much! She's conservative with tests and medicines which I really appreciate. I know she cares about my pets and takes her work seriously and treats them like her own. I'm grateful she's out Veterinarian!

I've been taking my two cats to the Neighborhood Veterinarian and Dr. Sue (Bartz) since about 1998. Even after moving from Broad Ripple to Fishers, I've continued to go there because of the friendly staff and the no-pressure attitude---they never push unnecessary tests or vaccinations, don't insist on cleaning their teeth if they don't really need it like some other vets do.Recently, I had to make the difficult decision to have one of my sick cats put to sleep. I'd never dealt with that before, but the staff helped make it as pleasant of an experience as possible for my cat and me: they had us come in at the end of the day, put us in an exam room in the back away from any noise/foot traffic, had the room dimly lit and a candle burning, a soft blanket for the cat to lie on, etc. She gave me an overview of the process, and then explained what she was doing as she went along. After it was over, I was able to sit in the room with her and say goodbye/compose myself. They told me they'd mail me a bill so I wouldn't have to deal with details and could just go home. And I just received a very sweet sympathy card, signed by Dr. Sue and all the vet techs who knew Nugget for the 13 years she went to them.If you're in the market for a veterinarian, don't hesitate to go with this practice.
