Dr. Highsmith and staff are wonderful! I took my foster rabbit (I have since adopted him!) in for a well check because he wasn't eating well and underweight. They listened to my concerns and spent a great deal of time checking him over and addressing everything I had mentioned. There are many vets in the area who are dismissive of clients and rush in and out. This team really wowed me! Their fees are incredibly reasonable and they accept the SPCA vouchers for rabbit spaying and neutering. Will be switching all of my pets to this vet clinic!

I went to Animal Kingdom for the first time in 2004 when I got my kittens and they did the spay and neuter procedure. Dr. Highsmith has a very kind demeanor and genuine concern for her patients. The first location was over near Bosporus on Harrison and they just recently moved to a newer space on East Durham (not far at all from the previous office). The new location is bright and airy and clean and has a very welcoming feel. There are kitty cats that greet you in the waiting room and sit on the counter. I recently brought it my 13-year old cat and after bloodwork and an ultrasound, no one could really figure out what was wrong with him. There was either inflammation or cancer at play and my cat kept loosing weight. Dr. Highsmith and the team tried to diagnose him but his could not make it through more testing at VSH and passed away.Alena and the team were very kind with every visit and I received the most touching sympathy card from the staff after Theodore's passing.

Went here for first time. Got in same day. Very friendly. Lower prices than elsewhere. Tiny office. Vet was nice and was extremely practical. No upsellling or vaccine guilt trips.I asked what to feed my dog and she surprised me by telling me Dog Chow was just fine, and grain free wasn't necessary unless my dog has skin issues. No food snobbery or pharma brainwashing. So much better than most vets. 2 cats hang out in small waiting area. I would definitely go back.

I am writing this review from up in NJ - sadly, I had to move away (and now have to find a NEW vet... bummer) - But, I want to let anyone out there searching in the Cary area that Dr. Highsmith is EXCELLENT! She is very patient, gentle (but firm, if need be) and will take as much time as you need to explain procedures, medicines, conditions, etc and so on. They have an excellent staff that are equally as knowledgable and helpful. I have been to many vets in the past, and none come close to the service I recieved from Animal Kingdom over the last 2 1/2 years. I give them a double paws up!!
