What reviewers say

70% Positive sentiment
based on 241 reviews

Mercy Animal Hospital is an established independent veterinary practice offering general medical care, wellness visits, and compassionate end-of-life services. The facility features a dedicated veterinary team known for providing thorough explanations and handling anxious pets with patience and gentleness. However, recent changes in leadership have brought operational challenges, including difficulties with phone communication, longer scheduling delays for routine appointments, and reduced availability for sick visits. While long-term clients value the historical tradition of affordable, old-school care, recent experiences indicate varying levels of satisfaction regarding appointment access and response times.
