This corner of Hickory has been home to a veterinary practice since 1976, and we’re proud to be its current chapter. In September 2020, Dr. Brittany Holler Barkley and her husband purchased Springs Road Animal Hospital, refreshed the facility, and updated its medicine and protocols — all while preserving the neighborhood-clinic feel that’s defined this place for nearly five decades
