Hickory Veterinary Hospital

We have just started going to Hickory Veterinary Hospital with our pups. One is just a year old and the other two 11 and 13 years old. We saw Dr. Redding. He took care of our 1 year old and our 11 year old pup so far. He is probably the best Vet we have ever dealt with, with the exception of one other at another hospital. Dr. Redding and his staff impressed us with their handling of our pups and his expertise in treating them. He takes time with you explaining his decisions and takes time with the pups. He doesn't do things that aren't necessary to drive up cost. Very professional. We had been looking for a good vet for a while now. We actually travel 23 miles to bring our pups here. That should speak volumes of the Dr's and Staff. Hope to have a long vet relationship with the Dr and staff

Dr. Hancock is hands down the most caring and genuinely amazing Veterinarian out there. She truly cares about your pet and is honest & trustworthy. A wonderful person to trust with your furry friend. After bringing our pets to her for years, she moved to another clinic in a different city. We saw a few other veterinarians and just never had the same great experience or trustworthy feeling as we had with her. Therefore we decided it is well worth the extra drive to come see her! We’re thankful to have found her :) The rest of the front desk and staff were all extremely nice as well. I appreciated the assistant who helped with Dr. Hancock (I didn’t get her name). Very sweet with our cats and not pushy at all with any services. They have some great people working here.

Amazing staff, kind technicians that go slow with sensitive dogs, and Dr. A has been such a wonderful addition to our pet care. From treating our pesky siamese who got an abcess to seeing 2 of our 3 dogs today!! I couldn't be happier and look forward to getting our cat and smallest pup in next month to see Dr. A.and Dr. H

There are multiple reasons I would never recommend this place to anyone. Do not bring your dogs here, they are unorganized, rude, and only care about the money. First few times I had brought him there they “lost his records” even though they were scanned in from the moment I brought my puppy to them. He had gotten his booster vaccine and it wasn’t until months later when I was looking at his records that I noticed it wasn’t listed, goes to show they “forgot to charge me” and are now requesting almost $100 for the vaccine THEY forgot to charge for months later. If I didn’t need to take him somewhere for his records to be looked at they never would have caught that. His most recent visit was due to a concern with redness in his eyes and I just wanted to ensure it was nothing more than allerg

I do NOT recommend Hickory Veternary Hospital in Chesapeake! Wyatt has always been itchy during spring. This past February I took him in as I noticed an increase in itchy and hair loss. He did have some weight loss however there was no major concern but to keep an eye on it per the doctor. We made an another visit two months later as my concerns continue and the same words were spoken to me again. In June I took him in and a large portion of his hair was gone and he was down a significant amount of weight. I asked for a blood panel to which they did not find anything and told me yet again it was just allergies. Today he saw a different vet today back home in WA. He is down 13lbs since March and much of his fur. They did a simple skin test and found bacteria. He is on medication to help ge
