Parkside Animal Hospital

"We’ve been brining our Aussiedoodle, Lucy, to Parkside since she was a puppy and can’t say enough good things about our experience!! I’ve never felt like they’ve taken advantage of us financially - and that means a lot! Because we stay on top of Lucy’s yearly wellness exams, there have been times I’ve called for small issues and they’re willing to offer help over the phone when appropriate rather than telling you to come in/pay for an appt/get an answer to something simple. The standard of care you receive is high, their staff has always been really kind and welcoming, the office is clean and has plenty of exam rooms so they get you back to your appointment space ASAP meaning your pet isn’t potentially exposed to other germs (or doesn’t spread anything themselves!) by sniffing around the lobby. As first time pet owners, we’ve definitely had some “dumb” questions along the way and all the vets we’ve seen have been so patient and willing to offer advice as needed. AND they have an app - which is so helpful! They were also so wonderful with our dogs spay surgery. It’s a nerve-wracking experience to put your dog’s life and health in someone else’s hands, but they went over all the pricing with us, recommended the best age at which to spay, had us bring Lucy’s blanket and a toy for her kennel as she woke up from surgery, kept us updated over the phone - when she was done with surgery they gave us a call to say “she did great!,” and kept an eye on her for a few hours after before allowing her to head home. They did an awesome job with the surgery and were even able to do buried stitches/closure (like closed the incision from the inside and didn’t need to put stitches outside that she would have probably licked like crazy) so her recovery was so smooth and easy. They provided very clear after care instructions and checked in with us the day after via phone to make sure she was feeling well. I could go on and on, but just know that Parkside is the kind of veterinary office where you feel welcomed, taken care of, respected, and are confident your fur baby is getting the best care possible. I’m sure we will use them for Lucy’s care (and for our future pets) for a long time to come!"

"They have taken care of my mom's dog for years. They helped us with end-of-life care for her senior dog, and they could not have been more compassionate and kind. Highly recommend."

"Parkside walked us through the painful process of saying goodbye to our beloved black cat, Jack in 2023. They helped ease our worries about our black lab/terrier Peete, cleared him of any cancer and removed a huge wart from his back. We will be taking our other pets to Parkside as they are now like family. So caring and gentle with our fur babies! Thank you Parkside!!"

"We have had a relationship with Parkside for 18 years. There are no words to adequately convey just how thankful we are to have access to caring and knowledgeable professionals. Everyone - from the receptionist to the techs to the vets - are top notch. Concerns, questions, after hours emergencies, well/annual checks, diabetes care, and end of life options….they’ve been there for us."

"Parkside is truly the best vet I have ever taken a fur baby to! Everyone is so friendly and compassionate, as well as being knowledgeable about what your pet needs if they are not feeling good. My fur baby, Clyde, has been in their care for about 4 days now due to a UTI. I have received calls everyday regarding how he is doing and updates every step of the way about treatments, his mood, etc. I’m so thankful I found Parkside as this will certainly be my new vet going forward. I am also very appreciative that they offer options when it comes to payment, especially when your fur baby gets sick unexpectedly. Thank you to everyone from Parkside and thank you for taking such great care of Clyde."
