Before I get to the visits, I felt the staff were very friendly and enjoyable to talk to. They explained what they were going to do, talked about upcoming appointments that should be done, and made the experience coming in easy. The first visit I honestly cannot remember why we came in other than we had a coupon for here. There were a couple shots due so I said do them so the dog can be up to date too. The girlfriend was not happy with the bill, little expensive to her liking. The second visit was for a nail trim. This is something we did ourselves for a while but it was time for a professional clipping. This time around I didn't even need to get out of the car. May have been miscommunication but they came out, took our pup and brought her back with nicely clipped nails. Again, the girlfriend wasn't pleased with the cost of the trim, especially since she can get her nails done as same or even less of a cost. I know pets can be expensive, I have a Russian Tortoise and do my best to keep it healthy. I don't know what the cost of services should be but for what it's worth the service provided seemed reasonable to me. If this is your first visit, there are 5 waiting spots out front in which you dial in to let them know you are here.

Spruce Hill is the most caring, compassionate, and wonderful place! I have been coming here for 20…read moreyears and would really trust them with my life. The below review sounds completely farfetched, as I cannot think of smarter, more invested, kind, and present vets. Dr. B spent HOURS with me during all my visits and called me on his days off to make sure that my dog was recovering OK from surgery. He really wanted to make sure I understood what was happening and was there if I had questions or if I wanted to process what was going on. I am sorry, given that my own personal medical dr spends about 5 minutes with me, it's pretty amazing and unheard of nowadays to get someone who really cares. The entire staff at Spruce Hill is also warm and wonderful. They make us feel welcome and always greet my kids with a smile and toy. Dr. H even has small trinkets for kids that she gives out and because of her, my little one wants to be a vet when she gets older. Dr. H was also there for our entire family when we made the most difficult decision of our lives and put our 16 year old dog to sleep after a long battle with cancer. She was so kind and empathic, providing light on an otherwise dark day. I would not send my pets anywhere else. I wish I could give this place 10 stars!!

After noting I missed the last few rabies vac, they asked if she's indoor or outdoor. I said she *used to be both*; but for the last 3 years now she's INDOOR--except for 30 second intervals when she goes out to do her business in the backyard and immediately returns while i watch & wait for her. The doctor then focused on herself; telling me she --the doctor-- cannot risk getting rabies. And therefore they really cannot do anything for me. Apparently they never heard of wearing gloves. And meanwhile my cat was in such severe pain as to be immobile! They also told me one of her ears was full of wax but again they could do nothing bc i'd missed the rabies vac. The doctor spent 10 MINUTES with us but most of that time was talking about the doctor not contracting rabies. I was sure there would be either no charge or à very nominal fee because they did nothing and now i had to go elsewhere. Boy was i wrong. That 10 minute lecture on keeping up with rabies vac, cost me $125. SHAMEFUL Spruce Hill. What a sham.

Then when we finally go get in the room the vet says you're new patients? I'm like yes just moved and they need to be seen blah blah. She then tells me well (very bruptly) well I don't know why they scheduled you because I'm not taking new patients. I'm like oh I didn't know. Went through the appointment anyway but for the amount of money I spent here I should of just walked out instead of being treated that way. I felt awful and she didn't want to care for my pup.

He was an overweight cat and the cause of the seizures was not diagnosed. After simply taking blood work and giving less than 20 min of an IV fluid, they stuffed him back in the cage and sent us on our way with a prescription for phenobarbital. No instructions other than how to give the cat the medicine, no goodbye, no thank you, and no advice on what to do if the seizures persisted. We administered the half a pill like we were told to do and he had another seizure 10 minutes later. We called the office to get advice and they basically said nothing. We left Milo to go get some yogurt to help him with his dosages for about 3 hours and when we got back he was dead on the floor under the bed. When we called back and told them our cat died they were completely unsympathetic, indifferent, and when Dr. H finally called back, said she "had never seen anything like this in 40 years. Why didn't they keep him until the blood work was complete, or load him with a higher dosage of the medication because he was a larger cat to prevent the seizures before they became fatal?! He was only 2 years old and if they were more specific about how much of a dosage we should have given him initially to get his treatment under way, or if they had given him some medication and enough of it to match his weight before we left the clinic, milo would still be with us today... TLDR: Dr Henderson doesn't care about your animals and if they die, Too bad, she doesn't know why and didn't care anyway. 40 years of veterinary practice for nothing!
