The team at Hillside Vet is exceptional!!! I’ve been taking my pets here for years. My current pet Sadie has some serious health issue and Dr Michelle and her team took the time and I mean time to advise me of current situation and a path to get Sadie through the worse. If you want a veterinarian who go out of there way then Hillside is the place. Read Less

Great experience here! Everyone from the front office to the back was warm and caring to the pets and the people. There was no "take a seat until we call your number" attitude here! Definitely going back! Thank you Hillside for a great experience and reasonable prices! Read Less

My Bailey finally got a proper treatment for her wound at Hillside Veterinary Hospital. After the first vet's medicines didn't work for a week, I went to Hillside Veterinary Hospital. Dr. Bean gave Bailey new medicines then after taking the new medicines within a week, Bailey's wound is healing up. Photos show before and after in between 6 days. Read Less

The best vets in the city. We moved to south Sandy two years ago and still go to the best vets in the city. I would give them five stars but yesterday we didn't get to the exam room for half an hour past our appointment time Read Less

My dogs and I have loved the care that we’ve received from the vets and staff at Hillside Veternary. They have been kind, gentle, and very good at caring for my pups medically. I am grateful to have found them, and would highly recommend them! Read Less

I went to Hillside today for my first time.. To get my little old man a nice check up as I've been worried about him in his old age. I have had a very hard time finding a vet that I love and trust, but I think I've finally found the place! The whole staff was very friendly and made me feel comfortable and heard the whole time.. But I cannot say enough good things about the actual veterinarian we saw, Jennifer (sorry I cannot remember her last name right now).. She was very calm, kind, and very knowledgeable. She was also very understanding regarding my feelings and needs, and she made my furry best friend feel more comfortable than I've ever seen him at a vet. She also wasn't "pushy" about anything, as I have ran into with a lot of other vets. She was really just there to give me all of the information she could in order to help me make a decision, and recommendations where I wanted them. Keep up the amazing work Hillside! Read Less

I love Hillside Veterinary Hospital. I followed Dr. Vetter there. She is kind and gentle with my dog and cat. My elderly cat has had some health issues and she has isolated his problems and he is feeling better now. My dog adores her. She is so nurturing to my animals. I have seen other veterinarians when she hasn't been available and they have all been wonderful. The staff at the front desk and the vet. techs are all so helpful and friendly. I can't say enough how wonderful and helpful everyone is. Read Less

Hillside Vets are great. They are so caring for the animals that come in. From the front desk to the veterinarians they all care about your animals welfare. My Hazel usually sees Dr. Michelle and she always makes Hazel feel comfortable when she has the "vet shakes" ......she's down on the floor with her checking her out on her level. I've also had a couple of the other veterinarians work with me and they are all fantastic. Wayne Read Less

I had a great experience at Hillside Veterinary Hospital! My cat had been acting "off" for a few days, so I started calling around and Hillside was able to get me an appointment the next day. Everyone was very kind and understanding, and I felt like I was listened to. My cat did not cooperate with the exam (shocker!) so we had to come back the next day for a sedated exam. I appreciated getting updates throughout the day, and found their prices very reasonable. I'll definitely be going back!! Read Less

We LOVE Hillside Veterinary Hospital. The physicians and staff ALL have you and your pet in their best interest. Our beagle LOVES going to the vet. She gets so excited when we pull up. She knows that they love her and she feels safe there. So so so grateful for Dr. Katrina Easton and her caring and kind attitude. Thank you for all that you do for Miss B! Read Less

I have been taking my little wiener dog to this vet a few years now and it;s hands down the best vet I have ever been to---whether it's Dr. Vetter or any of the other doctors you will not find better care, kindness or service and dedication to your appointment and your pet's needs. Just imagine the nicest teacher you ever had growing up and multiply her by 8---that is the staff there! I love this place. I can't imagine taking my dog anywhere else. And they are open for a half-day on Saturday! five stars all the way. Thank you HillsideRead Less

i love this place! we took my 8 week old puppy to get all her shots here and i love them! they're all so loving to the animals! winnie never screamed or cried or anything. she definitely likes our vet, and i do too! definitely recommend dr. bartholomew Read Less

Absolutely LOVE this vet office. Been to others in the valley. This vet by far is wonderful and puts the others in a lower category. The staff is so friendly and caring! Dr. Vetter is amazing, by far after today I have found a permanent vet for my animals. I won't go anywhere else. The office staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Read Less

100% the best experience at a veterinary hospital I've ever had. The doctors are smart, knowledgeable, kind and take the time to give your pet the best care possible. The staff are also great and know what they're doing. They are very organized! I trust Hillside with all of my pet's needs , whether it's routine care or an unexpected issue. I rarely have to wait more than 10 minutes to be seen. The doctors also make themselves available to their patients who are having issues or recovering from a procedure, often making personal calls to check in on the pet, or discuss issues with the owner. GO HERE. You won't be disappointed!! Read Less

I love this place. They treat each animal as if it were their own pet. So thoughtful of worried owners feelings. My doggies love the staff there and are not afraid to walk in the office. They do not do unnecessary procedures and consult with you through all treatment. Well worth it!!!! Read Less

Always a great visit for my dog and myself. Very helpful and thoughtful treatment.  One time, it was noticed my dog needed her teeth cleaned...I was a little nervous because of our dog's age with the anesthesia.  The Vet thought Ginger would be a good candidate for a non-anesthesia cleaning that they offered.  It was a lot cheaper and safer for Ginger and she did great.  Cant recommend this place anymore highly...they are terrific! Read Less

I have been using hillside for about 6 years now. They have fair prices and all of the vets are extremely caring and very experienced.  I never feel that I over pay for a procedure or surgery.  Most of the time I brace myself for a very large bill  to find that I am always pleasantly surprised.  I'd also like to say... This place is not even close to convenient of a drive from my house but none the less... I will choose this vet over any other. Read Less

Best place. Honest and loving to our animals. Trust them all the way. One time I went to another vet, and they said my kitty needed surgery and it would cost me $900.  Then I went to Hillside for a second opinion and they gave my kitty some medicine and she was all fine and good for $80. The doctors there are so genuine and you can tell they really care about you and your animals. Couldn't recommend this place more. Read Less

Absolutely amazing Vet Clinic! We tried three other Vets prior to finding this gem. The other three were alright, no true complaints about any of them (except maybe the cost of one or two of them). At Hillside, you actually see that they care about your pet. They walk you through everything and get your opinion on everything they do prior to doing it. This is very nice, especially when your dog is having an amputation due to cancer in his paw. The Vet calls you and gives you updates, on all issues you go in with, not just surgeries. After on visit, I even received a phone call the day after because the Vet said she was thinking about my dog all night and wanted to try a different eye drop for his allergies. Simply amazing service here!! Not to mention they are the most cost efficient Vet we have ever tried. Read Less

My husband and I purchased two Himalayan kittens little over two years ago. A brother and sister. The boy (Thor) had problems from the first week brought them home. He got kitty litter in his eye (first ER visit). Then he swallowed a piece of ribbon (second ER visit). Then he started getting eye and face infections. I took him to the same ER vet but during business hours and the doc told me that he had a uncureable disease and I would have to put him down. Keep in mind he was barely a year old. My husband and I were devastated. I reached out to a dear friend ( Jessica Smith ) and asked her for a referral for a good vet. She referred us to Dr Melissa Vetter at Hillside. I went in there a few days later and let her know what the other vet said and she totally disagreed. She said we will get to the bottom of what is causing him so much discomfort. We discovered Thor just had really, really bad allergies. We have been treating him for those and he is a completely different kitty. He's happy, loving, playful kitty! I owe a huge thank you to all the staff (just to name a few... Hannah, Melise and the very nice male vet tech ) and the other vets ( Dr Katrina Easton ). I highly recommend this place! There are all very nice, very caring and just want to help our furry family! Thank you Hillside!Read Less

I've had my dog for almost 10 years and in all that time I have not found a vet that I feel connected with Lucius. He is not known for his sparkling personality more a prickly pear sort of demeanor, so it's not easy to find a vet that seem to care about him, it usually feels like they just go through the motions and try to get us in and out as fast as possible...until today, today I had the most amazing experience at Hillside Veterinary Hospital this place is the best! Everyone was friendly, there was not a long wait and the vet took her time to read my dogs past charts, she spent a full hour with us doing the most thorough examination and answered all my questions and concerns. I can't say enough of how awesome this experience was so if you're looking for a great vet experience with really affordable prices I highly recommend this place.Read Less

Hillside has been my vets for years I would never go anywhere else! The staff is always kind , friendly and ready to help. The Doc's are amazing. Dr. Katie saw me through the life and passing of my little best friend and was incredible each and every step. I Now have a new baby and wouldn't dream of trusting her health with anyone else. These guys rock! Read Less

My dog has needed both annual exams & treatment for dental extractions & the staff is very friendly & efficient. Drs. Katrina & Michelle could not be more wonderful. I don't mean to fawn over them but I could not take Hobie anywhere else for any treatment. They are very professional, respectful and compassionate but never too busy to answer questions. Thank you for being there for us! Read Less

We have been going to Hillside Veterinary Hospital for over two years now, and I have been very happy with the care that my 10-year old Boxer has received. During this time, she has had two surgeries to remove tumors (cancer) and benign lumps, and at the same time, her teeth were cleaned. She was also diagnosed with hip dysplasia.Our primary vet is Dr. Katie (Domann), and we really appreciate her. She is very attentive and clearly loves animals. I have 100% confidence in her abilities and her intentions. When figuring out which tests to order, etc., she is also respectful in considering my financial constraints. We have also seen all four other vets for minor issues when Dr. Katie was not available, and they were great too. The vet techs are lovely and seem to like working there, which I take as a good sign, and the front desk staff are very friendly and helpful. I have recommended Hillside to many of my friends (after being referred there myself by a neighbor). The clinic is homey, and the prices are very reasonable. When I first moved to SLC, I went to a larger clinic and it was much more expensive; I also had both of her surgeries quoted by other clinics and Hillside was always considerably cheaper. I can't recommend this clinic enough. Read Less

Everyone is so nice and kind to my dog at Hillside even though it's not her favorite place. They make an effort to become friends with her and help her feel more calm. The care given is exceptional and I feel confident that my dog gets the very best veterinary care available. We usually see Dr. Domann and she is amazing but have seen the other vets as well when she is not available. Everyone is excellent. Highly recommend to anyone and wouldn't go anywhere else! Read Less

We found Dr. Bartholomew when we were looking for a vet with experience with a bloodhound. She now sees all of our dogs and I have never met a more loving group of people. The girls at the desk, the vet techs, everyone. They love on us and our pets every time we come through the door and never pressure us to seek the most expensive course. Sadly we had to put our Beagle down. Everyone was so respectful of us. Dr. Bartholomew sat on the floor with my 17 year old and explained exactly what would happen She was so empathetic and reassuring. The biggest thing to me is she showed emotion. Find the Dr you like and makes you feel comfortable, but you can't go wrong with anyone at Hillside.Read Less

I've been taking my dogs and cats to Hillside for almost 20 years. I've had experiences with all of the vets, and in fact, when I make an appointment I tell them I will happily go to any of the skilled and kind vets on staff. This is how much confidence I have in the Hillside team. From routine exams and shots to several experiences now with the very difficult process of euthanizing my sweet senior pets, everyone at Hillside is as loving and compassionate as anyone could be. They follow up quickly and completely after surgeries. In a couple of cases, the vets have actually driven to my home after hours to deliver pain relief meds for my dog. Finally, it matters a great deal to me that this is an all-female staff. I support women-run businesses whenever I can and my veterinary care is no exception. You won't find a more professional group to love and support your pets. Read Less

We have been taking our pets to Hillside Veterinary Hospital for practically as long as the place has existed, I think -- close to 30 years, at any rate. The doctors there are absolutely remarkable. Our furry kids have always received exceptional care there. We can't say enough positive things about Hillside, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a veterinary hospital in Cottonwood Heights or any of the surrounding communities.Read Less

I've use this clinic for almost 16 years. Always professional and loving atmosphere. They treat you like family. They have cried with me and laughed with me. Dr Michelle and her team are the best ever. I would never go anywhere else. If you haven't tried them please do. You won't want to go anywhere else. Thank you for your continued love for my Midnight. Lexi loved you too. Read Less

I just moved out of state, and sadly will not be able to visit Hillside again! My experience with this place has been exceptional. Dr. Katrina Easton is a wonderful vet, she is kind, compassionate, and helped me a lot with both of my pets. She always remembered me and my animals, and I feel like they both got great care from her. The clinic is always clean, everyone who works there is friendly, its always easy to get an appointment. I did not feel like this place tried to come up with procedures to overcharge me, they just did what they felt was required. Both of my animals, a greyhound and a kitty, hate strangers, but both of them felt very comfortable with the vets and staff here. My dog even loved the liver treats! Really I can't recommend this place any higher, I am sad that I don't have Katrina as my vet anymore! Read Less

My outstanding vet Dr. Vetter just moved to this clinic from another in the valley and I just couldn't stay there without her. My dog love the vet so much and I attribute that to the amazing "bed side manner" of Dr. Vetter. This neurotic doggie mom sure is lucky to have found her. I'm not sure what I'd do if I had to eve find a new vet. Also, I should add that the support staff is super friendly and helpful, the place is really clean, and the wait is short.... I know shocker! I'm really happy at this new location and even happier we got to keep Dr. Vetter! Oh and the pooches are happy too of course! Read Less

I took  our new 9 week old puppy to see Dr. Michelle Bartholomew and I can't say enough positive things about her and the clinic. She is knowledgable and enthusiastic and listened to all of my questions and concerns. She was wonderful with our puppy. She gave just the right amount of information about diet, exercise, vaccinations, and what to expect over the upcoming  months. She also had great tips for crate training and potty training. The staff were kind and efficient and the prices were great! I highly recommend Dr. Bartholomew and Hillside! Read Less

I never do ratings except for games but this vet clinic deserves the support. If you need pet care, I highly recommend this vet clinic. They seen us right away and treated my kitty TT who had PKD with loving care. They let us stay with her till the end and I just received a card from them today expressing sympathy for our loss. I am happy she was in good hands even though we weren't able to bring her home. Love and miss you TT. This was in early 2013. I am now going to return to have my Monster neutered. Read Less

What an AWESOME Hospital! We took in our 3 year old cat as we were thinking she had a UTI. The Vet was wonderful. Very informative, friendly, and caring for our Autumn. They gave her a physical, urinary analysis, and antibiotics at a very inexpensive (and affordable) price! Hillside is definitely the place to take your furry loved ones! I will recommend it to everyone. Thank you, Hillside!Read Less

My dogs mainly see Dr. Katie Domann, and she's just amazing! She's always so caring about my dogs well being as well as my mental state, since I am usually VERY worried whenever my dogs seem ill :) Whenever she's not available, other doctor can see my dog so I don't have to try to find another vet in case of emergency, and it always has been a very pleasant experience. Staff members are friendly and kind to both dogs and owners.One of my dogs have been having several incidents recently, in which she seemed EXTREMELY ILL, but she got better every time! THANK YOU!The charges are broken down clearly on the report you receive at the checkout, and I think it's priced very fairly.  Even after I have moved across the valley and live a bit further than I want to travel for a vet visit, I still go there because I know we are in good hands. Read Less

This place is incredible. I consider myself a crazy dog lady, and I have been searching for a place that cares about my pup as much as I do. This is the place! They were so genuinely concerned, and so gentle with my dog. They also made room for me in an emergency situation without hesitation. I will be coming here in the future and never look back at my old veterinarian office. Read Less

If I could offer up ten stars to this veterinary hospital, I would. I am so impressed by all of these folks, but Dr Katie Domann has just blown me away. She is an exceptional vet who cares genuinely about the animals she watches after. She listens to your concerns, and addresses every issue with time and personal attention. She goes out of her way to follow up with you, and she is gentle and attentive with her patients. I feel so fortunate to have followed a recommendation to bring my dogs here, and  even more fortunate to find Dr Domann. Earlier this week, my whippet had an allergic reaction that wasn't responding to benadryl, and Dr Bienapfl stayed late to get him a steroid injection as I rushed in the door just as they were closing. I also have an aging Italian Greyhound who had a previous dental in a veterinary clinic in California. There, he got a bad cut on his leg (requiring stitches) that they couldn't explain, and was so heavily anesthetized that he came home howling for hours and stumbling around running into things the rest of the day. He had a dental here that required extractions, but he came home calm, just a little worn out, and with his tail wagging. It has been a wonderful experience. Read Less

The staff & doctors are the best I've ever encountered. My dogs know it too - they're less nervous here. Dr Michelle Bartholomew is the absolute best vet I've ever had for my dogs (and I've had dogs all my life). They also are conscientious about costs, and do their best to keep the costs down on meds and procedures. They made sure to give my dog "human" prescriptions so I could get them cheaper at Costco. Highest recommendation if you need a vet. Read Less

Dr Bartholomew and Dr Doman and their associates and staff are A+ in my opinion. I have gone to them for years with a variety of pets. They are always courteous, thoughtful and thorough and rule on the side of being conservative as far as test, etc. I appreciate that and I always feel very included in any decisions. They are very fair and reasonably priced and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND them to everyone. I have been in when they have been slammed with emergencies and have probably waited a while and they may have been a little quicker with things but I know in an emergency they would always be there for me and unfortunately it may make other wait a while but it all works out in the end. They should get 10 stars! Read Less

Dr. Katie Domann has been treating my Yorkie and Keeshond girls, who both celebrated their 13th birthday at the end of 2012. She truly cares about her ""seniors"", as she calls them. Dr. Domann went so far as to call me after hours just to let me know the results of a biopsy on my Yorkie, because she didn't want me to worry over the weekend. It is because of that level of dedication and commitment to both her profession and her patients, that Dr. Domann will be my vet for as long as I live in Salt Lake City! Read Less

Upon moving to Utah two and a half years ago my senior citizen labrador became one of Dr. Bartholomew's patients. Being a senior she developed some ailments that required special care. Dr. Bartholomew and her entrie staff were so sweet to my lab while giving her exceptional medical care. While enroute to SLC she had to stop in St. George for emergency surgery. She lived another happy, healthy two and a half years because of HIllside Vet. When it came time to make the difficult decision that her time with me was coming to an end they provided me with the medical information to help me make that decision and the compassion to help during that painful time. When it is time to add a new canine to my family Hillside Vet will be out first stop! Read Less

Great place, really nice staff, great prices. The only negative is if you need to have your animal microchipped and are moving overseas, they do not have ISO approved chips, so now I have to buy my own scanner for $325! Other than that, awesome place, highly recommended. Read Less

I want to let you know how wonderfull and caring Dr. Schilling is; I called her late at night and told her of my situation with my cat (Symba) and was able to send her pictures of his situation and Dr. Schilling responded very quickly and actually cared about my cat!!! She helped me out and made me feel better about the situation with my cat.... She is very professional and actually cares sincerely about animals!!!! I could not recommend any other vet!!! If you care about your animal then be assured so does she!! Which is very rare in this day and age!!! Thank you Dr. Schilling!!! (your one in a million) Mrs. Liza Corwell Read Less

All of the doctors here are wonderful. When my cat passed away from kidney failure the staff and doctors were so kind and respectful. I cannot say enough about them. Plus, even though their services are "top notch," their prices are extremely reasonable. I've referred friends from as far away as downtown SLC, who were tired of the outrageous prices being charged by their neighborhood vet clinics. They have no problem traveling to Cottonwood Heights for their pets' health, when they know they're getting the best care at the best prices. Read Less

We have taken our old girl Gypsy (13) to Hillside for several years and now our new puppy Thor is a regular at the clinic. We love all three of the Vet's and have used their different services from standard dog care to acupuncture for our older dog (it really helped!). The level of care and concern for our babies has been very high and we like going to this clinic and now at least four of our friends go as well! The pricing is very competitive and the microchip is no more expensive than PetSmart and instead of a tech we get the doctor to do it..;) I am happy to answer any questions about Hillside you might have regarding our experiences over the last five years. Best Wishes! Randall & Lisa Wall Read Less

I?ve been around dogs my entire life, and have had my own for 15+ years (1 Beagle, 2 Boxers, and now a Doberman). Hillside is by far the best veterinary hospital in town, because you can tell they genuinely care for your animals. They try to keep costs low and offer to help wherever they can, which is not common in this industry (or world for that matter). I?ve had dogs with horrible genetic diseases to the point that nothing could be done to cure them (horrible skin allergies, blindness, kidney failure, brain tumors, mange, etc.), so I?ve had experiences with quite a few veterinarians over the years. In the cases where my dogs were lucky enough to have been treated at Hillside, their staff has always truly gone out of their way to make their time on Earth as enjoyable as possible. I fully credit them with saving my current Doberman?s life. She had a horrible case of mange as a puppy, and if it weren?t for Hillside she wouldn?t be here today. She?s now going on 6 years and is a beautiful, strong, and most importantly, happy girl. Looking at her now, no one would ever think that she almost didn?t make it as a puppy. They even worked with me financially because they felt so bad about all the health problems my previous Boxer had, which were not Hillside?s fault in the slightest. It sickens me to see people complaining about their practice, as you just don?t come across genuine people like this often. These people deserve nothing but praise, and I wish there were more people like this out there. In reading each of the negative reviews, it?s the reviewer you really should question, not Hillside. I?ve been around plenty of vets and ?specialists? who claim they will help your dogs, but in reality all they want is your money. There is not a person like that at Hillside, they care for your animals more than anyone else I?ve found, and truly want to help. I will never take one of my dogs to another vet so long as they are around, and I am truly grateful they are here. Read Less

My family has gone to Hillside Vet for 15+ years. We have had only good experiences. I trust all of the veterinarians there. Dr. Brown should be very proud of the legacy she left behind when she retired. It continues to have very high quality animal care. I have had many pets in for routine visits as well as surgeries and always have had excellent results. I highly recommend this veterinary clinic to anyone with dogs or cats. All of the employees I have dealt with have been considerate and professional. Read Less

I have been going to Hillside Veterinary hospital for close to 20 years. That means I have been going since Dr. Brown owned the practice and have been through several Veterinarians there. Michelle is an amazing Vet who has always taken time out for my pets and my questions. She has bent over backwards to help me save money and only do what is necessary for my pets medical care, young or old. She has been sensitive about our feelings and concerns every time we have been there. They also try very hard at this clinic to keep the cost down so people can afford medical care for their pets. Just call around to other Veterinarians for quotes and you will see what I mean. Although they have been through a few receptionist that were not very friendly the current staff is amazing and always smiling and greets me as I walk in the door. For those people who wrote a bad review, I wonder if they were at the right place, or if it was their own attitude that caused their poor experience. I recommend Hillside Vet and Dr. Schilling to all my friends and family! Read Less

Exceptional clinic and all of the doctors are absolutely fabulous. I've gone there for years and me and my little ones have been treated like royalty. To the person who gave them a bad review, I'm in shock! Maybe you were having a bad day or something. These doctors are wonderful. Read Less

We have been going to Hillside for 2 years. We have a 2 year old beagle boy and now a 3 month old beagle girl. We had a great experience with our boy - we only had to have routine shots & checkups with him. Our girl is a different story. We had her spayed at Hillside on 4/30/2010. When we picked her up they did not give us any e-collar because they indicated she had not tried to go for her incision in the recovery room. The next day we had to go out and buy an e-collar so that she would not be tempted to lick the incision & so that we would not have to be constantly watching her. They told us that the stitches were buried - the incision itself just looked like skin sticking together. Four days after the surgery (5/4/2010), her incision started to bleed. We pressed down on it with tissue and it stopped after a few minutes. It was late at night so we just decided to keep an eye on it through the night & the next day. This afternoon (5/5/2010) we looked at her incision and it was open - it was like the sutures were unraveling. It was open far enough that we could see part of her abdominal wall. We immediately called our vet & after 20 minutes of calling and getting a voicemail stating that they were in a staff meeting we decided to just take matters in our own hands and take our girl to an emergency vet - Mountain View Animal Hospital. They put in staples to hold her incision shut and gave us antibiotics for her to take so that she will not get an infection. They also provided an e-collar for her. Thank goodness we took her in because now she will be okay. We will absolutely not be going back to Hillside Veterinary Clinic. Our pets are like our children - a sentiment I am sure many of you can relate to - this experience has painted the clinic in a very bad light for us. I would absolutely not trust this clinic with any pet surgery - especially spaying or neutering. Read Less

Our experience with Hillside Veterinary Hospital has been stellar over years of patronship. Many years ago, (on a recommendation from a friend) our animals began seeing Dr. Kaye Brown. Dr. Brown gave our lab/pit mix great care for years and ultimately provided a very peaceful and humane experience when her life came to a sad but expected end. We have seen most of the other staff at Hillside now including Dr. Michelle Schilling. We repeatedly were impressed with her knowledge and by the honest care Dr. Schilling provided to our animals; ultimately we began asking for Dr. Schilling exclusively. She not only is one of the most skilled animal practitioners we have worked with, she is also kind and caring. We believe animals can sense much in humans which we miss. Our little dogs (we work with a chihuahua rescue society) trust and feel safe with Michelle. Every time we brought in our oldest chihuahua, Dr. Schilling would say, ""I just love this dog""; we knew she was not putting on a show, because, for this animal in particular, the feeling was obviously mutual. Our sweet little girl recently passed away at home, and once again Dr. Schilling and the staff of Hill Side walked us through the mourning process, comforting us as they too (honestly) mourned her loss. The staff even gave us a thoughtful expression of sympathy by making a donation to Best Friends Animal Society in her memory. Going to the Vet can be an extremely stressful event for our pets. The staff sees them only on their (and subsequently OUR) worst days. I can not imagine how difficult it must be to see animals suffering day in and day out. I strongly believe that these people are saints. Even though they possess special talents needed to do their work, I also know, from experience, that they are not all equal to Dr. Schilling and her staff. Hillside Veterinary Hospital is nearly a half-hour drive from our home. And even though its a complete pain to have to drive past so many other (likely skilled) vets, I will not go anywhere else. For as long as we are able to keep rescuing and fostering animals, our home will remain full of animal companions. Likewise, Dr. Schilling will remain our Vet; she has earned our trust and respect. I highly recommend Dr. Michelle Schilling and Hillside Animal Hospital. Read Less

I went to Hillside Vet with my cat and saw Dr. Bartholomew who now owns this business. I had to wait for 40 minutes for my appointment. Once I saw Dr. Bartholomew she was rude. She kept cutting me off and not listening to me. She rushed the appointment. I will not go back and felt it was very expensive for what was done. I had been quoted lower prices on the phone. The receptionist seemed afraid to go and bother Dr. Bartholomew with my concerns. I finally paid the bill, but will not be going back. They need to take some customer service classes. Read Less

We took our 8 month old puppy to be neutered. The Vet or staff thought he was still sedated he woke up and torn out his sitches and torn into a blood vessel. According to the staff he was left alone in a room by himself after surgery. When I picked him up they told me what happened and that he would be sore but fine I took him home. I took him in the house and my jacket and my puppy were covered in blood. I called them they said I could pick up more pain meds. I told them this is not right. I took him back to HIllside vet. They re-checked him and came back with he had a blood disorder and told me to go to a pet ER and hurry. We went to the Pet ER and found out he DID NOT have a blood disorder but that he was Neglected and was bleeding internal from the Bleeding blood vessel.

Dr. Kay Brown has been taking care of my animals for many years. I trust her judgement and believe she is the smartest veterinarian around. She is always compassionate and honest. I work all week and have to take my animals to the vet on Saturdays. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. Hillside Vet Hospital has always been clean when I have been there. I would highly recommend them to anyone that wants great vet care for their pets. Read Less
