★★★★★ Really great vet all around. Clean and efficient, staff are nice, Dr Williams really knows his catsMike O.Mike O. ★★★★★ Parking can be precarious at best, the office staff are professional and friendly. The facility is clean. Fees are the norm. They do actually treat RABBITS! This is so hard to find in the city. Many Vets advertise that they treat Exotic animals but do not!Julie E R.Julie E R. ★★★★★ Amazing place for a Dogs Care!AndresAndres ★★★★★ Great Service and Great Staff.Charlene K.Charlene K. ★★★★★ Amazing and kind service. Thank youJanet H.Janet H. ★★★★★ The staff are friendly and helpful, and they all clearly care about the animals!Rebecca S.Rebecca S. ★★★★★ Hyde Park AC, the entire staff, and especially Dr. Jeremy Williams, never ceases to impress me. They are all extremely knowledgeable and absolutely the best. Fran from Hyde Park Cats recommended Dr. Williams and I'm so very glad she did. They all go beyond compassionate and continue to work very hard to solve all problems.Liz S.Liz S. ★★★★★ This was my pets 1st vist. The staff was very nice. They took really good care of him.Lawanna R.Lawanna R. ★★★★★ Over the last 15-20 years, we have taken our two dogs -- Sam and now Carlos to HPAC.We've always appreciated the care and concern that the staff, the Vet Techs, and the Veterinarians have shown us and our dogs.It's been wonderful to be in the office to watch and observe how positively the HPAC teams attend to others on the phone, as walk-ins, or who have arrived with their pets.As you might imagine, sometimes we arrive with some anxiety about the health of our pets -- and that can create some stress in our lives and cause us to be less considerate at times.However, the HPAC always receives its clients with warmth, kindness, and understanding -- and that's so very heartening to see.Good people are taking care of the US and our pets.That's why we will always return.Gerald Doyle and family -- and, of course, CarlosGerald D.Gerald D. ★★★★★ Great vets and friendly staff. We have been bringing our cats to this practice for 13 years! One change that folks should be aware of is -- a deposit is required for appointments. I don't know if the policy change is due to the number of "no-shows" in this COVID era. What I do know is that patients weren't alerted to the change in policy until I called for an appointment. Despite that "glitch" I still rate them as a 5 star vet practice!! All of the vets are good-- special shout out to Dr. Baker & Dr. Williams for the care of our much love cat, Theo..Kimberley C.Kimberley C. ★★★★★ Love the new location!Celest C.Celest C. ★★★★★ Nice staff, great facility, excellent serviceLance A.Lance A. ★★★★★ Recommended.

H. ★★★★★ My sweet kitty is anything but at the vet and the team at Hyde Park Animal Clinic were wonderful, despite the challenges he presented. They also worked with me to develop ways of making vet visits a bit more tolerable for my not so little guy.Maria B.Maria B. ★★★★★ Dr. Baker, Dr. Williams, and supporting staff are wonderful. Most importantly, our cats like them and have aged well! 19 years and counting. 🍀Kate CKate C ★★★★★ Really great Dr. Williams and nice, convenient facility.Dan L.Dan L. ★★★★★ All of the staff I encountered were kind. The tech and doctor were thorough with my cat.Rachel Z.Rachel Z. ★★★★★ Dr. Williams is great and the new location is excellent.Daniel L.Daniel L. ★★★★★ UPDATE: After they moved the clinic I decided to give it another try and I am SO GLAD I did -- its so much improved, and Dr. Williams is awesome! As is typical of my experience, I first emailed the clinic 2 days ago to ask someone to call me before I posted this review, and as I expected, no one has called.Old review:I went in person to the clinic over a week ago because I couldn't get anyone on the phone to ask if I needed to worry about the fact that our puppy wasn't eating. "Someone will call you" I was told.No one did.5 days later someone texted (no name) to ask "Hi Mrs. Julie, how is Bowie doing? Is he eating or drinking?"Five days.I ignored the question because clearly they were not concerned about my pup and then instead asked: "I dropped stool sample off - I'm hoping if there was a problem someone would have reached out. it is ok?"And here's their response: "The giardia was positive but I've got some medication ready for pick-up as well. I'm sorry Antech did not send it the response, we had to call."Here's the thing: I have been asking fellow dog people in the neighborhood about why no one likes the clinic (apparently they used to) -- its sooo convenient I really want to use it.Literally the very first person I ran in to after learning that they neglected to tell me that they knew why my puppy was sick - because he had giardia -- said the exact same thing happened with her puppy, that she found out only by asking and that 10 days had passed and the dog seemed sick but she didn't know why.Anyway, I went in, got the medication with instructions on how to administer it and left.I was googling giardia to see how long it lasts, and I see there are lots of things dog owners can do to help prevent reinfection, like wash dog beds, wipe their butts, etc. Its not just enough to give the medication. And no one told me anything other than "here's the medication".I cannot believe how sloppy this operation is. It feels like we have to ask for every scrap of information. Maybe I am not supposed to expect any education about the pup from an animal clinic, but people who take their dogs other places describe feeling much more confident in the care and education they receive.Big bummer.julie O.julie O. ★★★★★ Always a great experience when I am here. I enjoy the friendly staff and informative services. My dog is not terrified or anxious to come here because the staff--from tech to veterinarian--were sweet and loving to him. I also learned a lot and was given clear steps to improve my dog's overall health and wellness. I've been to the animal hospital and the clinic locations and recieved the same exemplary service at both. This is all around a great animal clinic/hospital--I would definitely recommend.Nicole G.Nicole G. ★★★★★ The staff was amazing and the vet everyone was so nice and welcoming they make you and your fur baby feel comfortable definitely an amazing experienceBeautyBeauty ★★★★★ Hyde Park Animal Hospital staff are friendly and informative. If I ever had a concern with my pup, I could call them and they would walk me through steps to determine what is the best course of action for my pup’s health. I would recommend their services to anyone in the area.Stephanie H.Stephanie H. ★★★★★ Very nice people. New to the area, glad I found them.Gerry F.Gerry F. ★★★★★ Very friendly staffAshley W.Ashley W. ★★★★★ Dr. Williams is the best! Excellent veterinarian, thoughtful, kind.Grace D.Grace D. ★★★★★ Online booking was easy, and everything ran on schedule.

Very thorough exam!Melissa S.Melissa S. ★★★★★ Dr. Keets was so informative about my dogs shots and really put of both at easeUryah O.Uryah O. ★★★★★ My Smokey goes their... there awesome to him and for him.. He has shots coming up I'll update later.Brandon P.Brandon P. ★★★★★ Great care!!Howard B.Howard B. ★★★★☆ PROS:The best team of Techs and Doctors.They truly care about your best friend's health and wellbeing.CONSIt is difficult to get weekend appointments.Not cheap.Dan F.Dan F. ★★★★☆ The staff & vets are very caring & personable.Always friendly & helpful. Usually not too difficult to get an appointment for my dog. I rated down one star as it is sometimes impossible to get a follow up inquiry via email from the vet my dog usually sees.Kathleen J.Kathleen J. ★★★★☆ Dr was able to see us on short notice for wound care after a dog attackWiley T.Wiley T. ★★★★☆ Very friendly and professional staff.Scott L.Scott L. ★★★★☆ The staff is always very friendly and they remember me and my pet. I would say it's definitely not gonna be one of your cheaper options, but so far they've taken only the best care of my cats.Robert A.Robert A.js_loader

Gill Bright Animal Hospital is the best. They take care of my cat and dog like it’s their own. They always ask about my dog when I go in and buy his special food. I have had such awesome personal service with the clinic calling and checking on my animals. Dr. Bright and Dr. Gill rock!!

Trisha

Absolutely the best! I have been bringing my dog here for the past 8 months. I love them and my dog loves them! They are passionate about what they do and it shows in how friendly, caring and compassionate everyone is from the front desk to the doctor. I brought my dog to their Summer Camp, and he was so happy to be there and when I picked him up. Their service is second to none. I will never use another veterinarian!

Magan

The staff and doctors are the most caring individuals. The office is so clean and inviting and they have such great events that your fur babies want to go. The boarding and grooming staff are the best around!
