We have been going to Dr. Highsmith with our "Fur Babies" for about 30+ years, and have nothing but love and respect for him, his Associate Vets and Staff. They all treat us as if we are part of the family, and with 10 dogs, and a cat, we spend almost as much time at their Wrightsville Ave Clinic as anywhere...LOL!! Over the years, Dr. Highsmith has discussed alternative medicines and techniques that may help our particular problems, and has always been extremely helpful. The care of our pets is extremely high on their priorities. They also have a wonderful Groomer on staff, who we take two of our dogs to for clipping a couple of times a year.

My initial experiences at Highsmith with our new puppy were wonderful. Dr. Anderson is amazing and very friendly as are all of the support staff we have met. However, we've had reason to return to Highsmith a few times and each time the base visit is getting more an more expensive. I took our puppy in for a rash that a different doctor at Highsmith said was nothing. It made me feel like I was wasting their time. Although, he did hand me a bottle of medicated shampoo which I learned upon checkout was $30!! During the next visit when my dogs rash persisted and spread, I was told by one of the techs that the shampoo I received from them was really useless for the bacteria that my dog has. We then saw a third vet at Highsmith and as a result of those visits our dog has now been on antibiotics for 3 weeks. Clearly our dogs rash was "something". The visits are getting shorter but the cost in increasing. As I checked out during our last visit I commented on the increasing cost of the visits. The base price increased but also a large portion of it is the medication. I work in a human medical setting and I go above and beyond to help people find the most cost effective solution available. Although I didn't know it at the time, I would have greatly appreciated knowing that I could have filled our dogs meds at a regular pharmacy for a lot less or that there was a brand specific offer available to greatly lower the cost of our pets meds. We've been diligent and loyal customers and have happily brought our puppy in whenever we've had concerns. However, I feel a bit taken advantage of and my overall concern is that their fees will continue to increase with time. Read Less

I cannot say enough about Highsmith animal hospital. They are truly compassionate people who have helped my cat Calypso so much so far. All of my cats are young, but calypso has a few very rare things wrong with her and Dr Highsmith has been incredible (as well as the other drs and staff!) I wish there were more stars I could give for a rating! Read Less

Today was my first time going to Highsmith and I will definitely be back! I've been to other vets in the area but wasn't impressed. The office space is clean and the waiting area is large enough for everyone with their pets. The receptionists were kind and helpful. The doctor I saw today was Dr. Tayloe and you can tell she is passionate about her line of work. As a new cat mom, she set my heart at ease with going into full detail about everything that I needed to know with my rescue kitten. I would recommend this vet office to anyone in the Wilmington area. You can tell they care about their animals! Also, they are quick to get you through so you aren't there all day! Read Less

Just want to say how much we appreciate Dr Meghan Tayloe and the wonderful care she provides for our 3 critters. She has been a godsend helping us to understand and control a chronic condition in one of our beloved cats. She is always willing to see him on an emergent basis when his condition becomes hard to manage and always takes the time to help us figure out the best as well as most cost effective way to deal with his issues. Dr Tayloe was recommended to us by our previous vet when we moved here two years ago and she is wonderful. Also the staff at Highsmith is fantastic. We highly recommend the practice! Read Less

Our kitty decided to break camp and spend a night on the town. Keep in mind she is strictly an indoor cat. Found her the next morning with a limp and puncture wounds in her foot. Highsmith accepted us with no hesitation as a first time client. Did their due diligence in taking awesome care of our wayward Feline. Fortunately, it was not as bad as we thought. So blessed to have Highsmith within less than a mile from my home. The carrier we had wasn't that sturdy however they loaned us one. Highsmith will indeed be our chosen Vet. Read Less

Best vet in Wilmington hands down! Dr. Highsmith cares a great deal about his work and is very compassionate towards animals. He is extremely thorough in reviewing the details of the visit. I never felt rushed or that he had anything more important to do than care for my pets needs. I have never had a vet that I like more. Furthermore the whole staff is extremely helpful and happy to be at their place of work which says even more to the quality of the facility overall. I would recommend Dr. Highsmith to anyone who truly cares about the quality and concern their pets receive when going in for a visit.Read Less

I've a mixed breed dog with degenerative disc disease. I adopted him from a rescue group and know that he was physically abused in his early years. The staff at Highsmith consistently treats him with great care and patience! They know his name and will sit in the floor with him to give him a chance to adjust to any new people or issues. I've never felt rushed in an appointment, the admin staff, vet techs and our favorite veterinarian will take as much time as needed to explain any procedures or issues with me. And answer as many questions as I have. We'd never go anywhere else and would recommend this facility to anyone with a ""fuzzy family member"". Read Less
