REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS
I highly recommend this veterinary hospital for their exceptional care and attention to detail. The staff was friendly and transparent about costs, and nurse Emily's kindness was much appreciated. Dr. Nicholas Pope took his time to explain what he found with Sophie and his recommendations. Sophie received wonderful care, and I am grateful for the experience.

I cannot say enough praise as to the staff and doctors at Clover Hill. After 14 years, we had to finally say goodbye to our Pepper. They provided the setting time and support during this trying time. During his life, Pepper was always given great medical care. We were never rushed during visits questions always answered.

I could not be happier with my experiences at clover hill. My dog was sick and they were able to see her same day. The front desk staff are super friendly on the phones and walking in. The vet technicians, (McKenna specifically) were super warm and compassionate. My dog is usually timid at the vet and she warmed right up to McKenna. The vets are super thorough and communicate very clearly the situation. The vets did not push unnecessary tests or treatments. I am so glad to have found Clover Hill.
