Update: we changed to a vet in Chesterton. The cleaning and 9 small to medium extractions cost $900…read moreand went smoothly. Vale Park had quoted us $2,400 for cleaning and extractions. I'm so glad we left Vale Park Animal Hospital. Our 13 year old dog recovered well from the 9 extractions, her pain was managed, and we saved $1,500. Our dog has since turned 14 and is very healthy! Doggy dental doesn't need to cost more than your mortgage payment! It seems that Vale Park doubled or tripled their fees after they built a new facility. We took our dogs there for 21 years. They were always higher prices than most vets. All of the original vets retired. It used to feel like family. I didn't feel connected to the newer vets. They used to recommend my dog's teeth be cleaned every 2 yrs but then for 4 years they said they didn't need cleaning and then suddenly said it was needed and would be $2,400.

I was traveling from Hawaii with my little Cavalier, Belle, for the summer…read more After noticing her cough hadn't subsided for a long time, I began to panic after asking another vet friend about her symptoms. I called and spoke with Tonya who was able to get us in immediately. Dr. Brooke McAfee diagnosed my little angel with Mitral Valve disease after some X-rays and listening to her murmur. Receiving this news was life altering- Belle has been my baby for almost 8 years. Dr. Brooke is amazing- she has the most wonderful and kind nature, inclusive of the empathy so many veterinarians lack these days. She guided me through all of the next steps, and I genuinely felt she cared even knowing we weren't a long term client/patient. I'm beyond grateful for everything Dr. Brooke, Tonya and their staff here did for us while we were in Indiana. Without question, 5 stars!

A Google search and having another vet look at her poop we found she has a parasite. Also the 3 vets and assistants who handle her didn't disinfect the room and touched her bare handed and probably spread it to other pets. I also asked if she should be confined from my other chinchilla and was told no. I was told she has ammonia. For a pet that's eats and lost alot of weight and cant walk straight you think they would at least have a better diagnosis. They also wanted to change me an additional 1300 dollars dor a CT scan that would have shown nothing. Blood work and fecal sample is what they should have done first.

A couple of days ago I tried to make an appointment to get my new rescue dog a grooming appointment. Kept giving me the run around. I thought we were adults but unfortunately they are petty and childish because they refused to let me make an appointment. I heard through the grapevine that this business is poorly managed. I'm not surprised. If they treated me like crap, I can only imagine what they do to their employees.

The biggest benefit to this clinic is that it is walk in appointments, except for surgeries. So convenient! The staff is friendly, yet professional. I have experience with five other clinics, and Hobart Animal Clinic is my favorite. I always request Dr. Wozniak, as she gets to the point and tells me what she would do if it were her animal. Reasonably priced, though this definitely isn't a low cost clinic. However, you get what you pay for here. New and clean facility, educated and friendly staff, walk-in welcome, wide range of preventatives. I love this place so much that I take my family's pets here, who live two hours away. I can't say enough good things about this place. Keep up the good work!

Also, they forgot to mention that the adrenaline shot was between 4-5 hundred dollars extra I felt like it was a money grab not to mention this happened on Thanksgiving day, but still paid the bill I dont want to put race in this situation at all so I'll just say they were very unprofessional and when I called the next day to voice my opinion I was met with a woman telling me that she was losing her cat as well, and basically she did not care about me losing my dog, hung up the phone and proceeded to put me on the permanent band list I wish I could give them 0 stars R.I.P Grace

I love this place. I literally cannot say enough good things about Dr. Keeley and the staff that…read moreworks with him. We have been going here for probably close to twenty years through multiple pets with varied health issues. Dr Keeley and the staff at Southlane have always done an incredibly thorough assessment of our animals and provided detailed plans for treatment and long term health. Everything is explained extremely well and information printouts are always sent home to reference. Dr Keeley is compassionate, caring and puts the comfort of your pet first. He doesn't ever do unwarranted tests or procedures. Southlane's prices are very fair, especially when your pets are getting such excellent care. Honestly, I don't know what we will do if he ever retires. They have a friendly, efficient staff with several who have been working there for years. The kindness, care and excellent veterinary medicine that exists at Southlane is everything a person could want for their pets and I highly recommend them.

My dog didn't move for 2 days and it was painful for her to walk and go outside.

Walked our dog around the block, back in her car and on her way in 10 minutes - 26$ per visit for months before I noticed. Constant cancellations/excuses, always came in during 2 hour block specifically asked not to come to not wake up baby, poor communication. After being fired - took a week to return keys and would not refund money for prepaid cat care weeks in advance or work days missed. Still waiting for payment after small claims court.
