I was hesitant , knowing what animal surgery costs in the city by hearing of similar situations from friends and family. I was referred to Hickory Knoll by someone I trust! I was skeptical and nervous for my dog. This place is truly special!! My dog had a little area to as she's super skittish around people that she doesn't regularly see. They made her feel at ease, which surprised me. As of late , they take strict precautions as far as Covid is concerned. They come get your pooch from your car and offer payment options while in your vehicle. I can't say enough about how much Hickory Knoll has changed my perception of Veterinarians. They even call , twice in fact , to check up on your animal after the visit. They do this every time and it means a lot to me.

I decided that I would look for a vet close to home (I travel to the Eastbank for everything else, so it's time for a Westbank vet). After some quick internet research, Barataria Animal Hospital seemed like the winner. They were accepting new patients and setting up our first appointment was just a quick phone call. One week later,Hermes had his appointment. A very thorough checkup, and the discovery of an ear infection later, I had a happy pup who actually didn't seem to hate the vet. Yay! The Dr was easy going and easy to understand, which makes this dog-mom happy too. Reasonably priced for the checkup and the ear drops, which is always a plus.

She took my dog "for vitals" and didn't return for several minutes. I went to find her and saw her pinned tightly between the tech's arm and body, with a towel positioned to hide a rope around her neck. Another staff member said they were waiting for the doctor, but as soon as they noticed me watching, the rope came off and she was returned. Later, in the room, she got a shot while I held her -- no barking, no movement. Clearly, the rope and aggressive restraint were unnecessary. Their social media shows gentle, happy animals at outreach events -- no ropes, no towels, no rough handling. What I saw today was the opposite. We won't be back. Update: we've found another vet after reviewing the video from the visit and watching their TikTok making fun of the feedback from our experience.

The lady that answers the phone is always upbeat, happy and helpful. The techs are all wonderful and really seem to enjoy being at work. They also seem to really care about your pet and you. Dr Batt was honest and took time to talk to me about my old pug. It's so refreshing to go to a Vet who didn't suggest costly things to do. In fact, it was the opposite. He told me my old guy was old and happy, let him leave his life out without doing stressful things to him. I drive from Covington ( 80 miles round trip) to bring my pugs to them because for me and them it's worth the drive and time. Pugs are known for misbehaving for nail trims and these guys handle them with a smile and quickly. They also are the most reasonable priced vet I've found in New Orleans or on the northshore so that's an added bonus!

My typical experience here: wait 30 minutes to an hour past the appointment time to be seen. Around…read more25 minutes in, check with reception; either there's only one vet seeing patients (the other is in surgery), or there have been multiple emergency patients today, or both. I get it - you have to triage patients. But if it's like this every day, there should be communication when your clients check in, or ideally text them an hour or so before the appointment time to let them know if they can expect to be seen on time or if there will be a delay. In my most recent visit, I checked with reception after a half hour of waiting, and I was told that they did not have an estimate on when I'd be seen. Two stars because the folks here do seem to care about their patients, but are - at best - indifferent to their clients.
