Northside Animal Hospital: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Kelsey, Sierra, and April were very helpful. They were patient and very knowledgeable to our concerns. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Great place and amazing staff! Kayla, Vicky, April are all so sweet to my dog Zeus and they are always patient with me seeing that I travel out of town a lot and have to leave my dog to board with them for days on end. Amazing people!
Fantastic experience: I have a toy poodle who wasn’t feeling well, and his regular vet was unable to see him. Dr. Shea was incredibly patient and gentle with my dog. Marianna took the time to ask detailed questions about his symptoms and truly made us feel like she cared about what was going on. April was also so kind and welcoming. From the very first phone call to the moment we walked out the door, the level of care and service we received was outstanding.
Fantastic experience: the vets and staff are very nice and courteous. they answered all my questions fully and helped out in every way they possibly could. thank you
Fantastic experience: Dr. Kelsey, Mandy and April were all great and attentive today! Answered any questions I had without any hesitation. Our pup loved them as well! They made us feel very welcome for our first visit! They even gave her a comp. Nail trim!
Fantastic experience: Everyone was so helpful, friendly, and most of all, caring. I decided to let let them handle all my pet care. ❤️. Highly recommend this company.
We are excited to hear you found our team helpful, friendly, and caring. Thank you for trusting us with your pet care needs.
Fantastic experience: We had a wonderful experience at this vet office from start to finish. Dr. May was kind, knowledgeable, and took the time to answer all of my questions without making us feel rushed. Minerva, the tech, was incredibly gentle and patient especially with my anxious dogs. She made them feel comfortable and handled them with such care. April at the front desk was friendly and welcoming, and the whole visit was efficient with very little wait time. It’s clear the entire team works well together and truly cares about their patients. Grateful to have found a vet office that treats our dogs with such compassion and provides such quick, professional service. Highly recommend!
Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful experience. We are grateful our team provided compassionate, professional care for your dogs.
Fantastic experience: Excellent staff. Very pet friendly. Doctor was very through and explained the condition in layman's terms.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Shea was amazing the night I had to unexpectedly say goodbye to my kitty. She was patient & kind & explained everything. I felt like she cared for my cat even tho they had just met. The receptionist, April, at the desk was so personable & caring as well. So thankful for them being there & for the extended hours Northside offers. Thank you all!
Fantastic experience: Jennifer and Dr. Shea were amazing with taking care of my dog. They were very professional, kinda, and attentive during our yearly appointment.
Negative experience: EDIT: I posted the quote they gave me for over $700 - I'll let you decide who the real crook is! I brought my dog here for the first time and was left waiting in the exam room for over an hour. This was the first appointment of the morning and there was only one other customer in the building, so the delay was frustrating enough that I eventually walked out. The vet later called and apologized profusely, so I decided to give them another chance. On my next visit, I brought my dog in for routine shots and mentioned a small dark spot on her belly. The vet immediately recommended removal, saying that if it were her own dog, she would go forward with surgery. I was then given a quote for several hundred dollars. Thankfully, I sought a second opinion at Auburn University — where they informed me that the “suspicious spot” was simply my dog’s nipple. (This is my first girl dog - I didn’t know). Needless to say they were shocked that a vet would advise such and found it to be an aggressive and unwarranted recommendation. The advice I received here was not only unnecessary but came across as a blatant cash grab. I will not be returning. If you bring your pets here, please proceed with caution.
Thank you so much for your feedback, Bella. We take these kinds of situations seriously.
The notes that the doctor put in and what you are claiming are not matching up. We also called Auburn University, and they said your pet hasn't been there since June 2024. Please give us a call so that we can address these concerns at 706-324-0333. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: We have been taking all of our dogs to Northside for about 4 years and have never had anything but a great experience. All of the staff truly cares about our pets and all of the vets are equally as thorough when caring for our dogs.
We are delighted to hear about your positive experiences at Northside Animal Hospital. Thank you for sharing your feedback!
Fantastic experience: I brought my dog Sophie in for after hours urgent care. She was seen immediately. The staff and the doctor were very kind, and gentle with Sophie. They diagnosed an abscessed and ruptured anal gland and treated her promptly. Of course the price was higher due to it being an after hours visit, but I thought the overall cost was very fair. I'm glad that they are there for evening emergencies without having to go all the way to Auburn.
We are grateful for your positive feedback regarding the care provided to Sophie. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
Fantastic experience: Northside is always helpful, gentle and caring. They treat my kitten like their own during extended stays, routine checks. The Doctors are always knowledgeable and able to communicate complex issues clearly. Their texting is quite responsive considering how many other pets I see coming here all the time.
Fantastic experience: EXCELLENT doctors and staff. Very caring and knowledgeable. I have 4 ferrets and it is very hard to find a knowledgeable ferret vet! Dr. Stewart is great with them and even has some of her own. All of the techs love playing with the ferrets when i bring them in. The vet tech we had, Mackenzie was great. She asks lots of questions about the ferrets when checking you in. and the receptionist (Davia) was also great. Everyone is super friendly.
Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience with Dr. Stewart, Krystal, and Linda at Northside Animal Hospital. We love caring for your ferrets!
Fantastic experience: Northside is very warm and welcoming. They actually do care for their patients and you can tell they love what they do. They take time to answer your questions and really try to figure out what is wrong with your Pet. I am very satisfied with the care my cat received from this facility. Dr. May and Dr. Bell and the staff are great!!
Fantastic experience: We had our first visit at this clinic this past week. We brought our new puppy in for his first visit, and to get him caught up on shots. There was no wait when calling to get him in to an appointment. When we arrived, getting checked in was fast and easy, there was a very short wait to get back into a room, and both the vet and the vet tech were professional, listened to everything I had to say, and were very transparent about pricing. They went over the cost of everything with me before treating him, which I LOVED. I will be returning with my puppy for all of his future vet needs!
Fantastic experience: Staff were friendly and attentive to my fur baby. The building and rooms were clean and check in and out were seamless. Definitely a place you and your fur baby can trust for great care.
We are overjoyed to hear about your positive experience at Northside Animal Hospital. Thank you for sharing your feedback!
Fantastic experience: Thank you Northside for helping my Mocha today. Got her fixed up with an antibiotic and she’s on her way to feeling better. Great service! Very friendly! Shout out to the friendly staff that helped today: Shea, Marianna, and Linda Thank You
We greatly appreciate your positive feedback, Linda! We're thrilled to hear that Mocha is feeling better. Thank you for choosing Northside Animal Hospital.
Fantastic experience: This is the vet you want. It feels like everyone there genuinely cares about the health of your pet and your experience visiting. They don't cut corners, but also they do *not* push any services that are unnecessary just to make money. The veterinarians there are very knowledgeable and will take the time to explain your pet's health and care and answer any questions. All of the staff are wonderful, but I especially recommend Dr. Shea Smith. She helped care for my rescue kitten, Tortellini, who was under 2 weeks old. Everyone there was happy to answer questions that I had about Tortellini as I figured things out. They also have a text messaging service that has been helpful to know if I need to come in for a health concern. They also do great with "exotic" pets, and were knowledgeable and careful with my hamster Beignet when we had an emergency. We were able to get in within a day and he received appropriate care to recover great. The new after hours emergency services are very reassuring in case we have another emergency. When our elderly cat sadly passed away of old age recently, they were very kind and sympathetic as we considered cremation options for her. They made the difficult time as easy as possible and were very considerate as we said goodbye. I recommend Northside Animal Hospital to all of my family and friends. They are the only vet office I will go to.
We are thrilled to hear about your positive experience at Northside Animal Hospital. Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.
Fantastic experience: Our normal vet saved one of our babies several years ago after Auburn almost killed him. But they really let us down this time. After 5 mins of walking into this AMAZING Pet ER, Northside, I knew I was exactly where we needed to be for our 7/8 yr old Great Dane. Took her to her primary Vet the day prior for extreme the night before. The did not really do much of anything and said it’s just an upset stomach. Literally less than 12 hours later, she progressively just got worse and worse. Sat morning I knew we had to get her somewhere and quick. LUCKILY….Dr. Bell at Northside took the time to actually listen and ask questions and actually examine our baby girl….Pancreatitis. Pancreatitis….NOT just an upset stomach. Thankfully this is 100% treatable and she will be back to normal in a few days. It wasn’t 12 hours after seeing Dr Bell that we started seeing some actual progress, not regression. I will be switching veterinarians. Oh - AND actually asked what our budget was when determining medication so that we could afford them. (After spending $350 the day before). Both of our Great Danes will be much better off in Dr. Bells hands. DEFINITELY recommend!!! Thank you, Northside. Idk if we would still have our girl today if you hadnt been there for us..for her.
We're ecstatic to hear about your positive experience at Northside Animal Hospital. Thank you for sharing your feedback!
Fantastic experience: Dr. May and Dr. Stewart are great Vets. So caring and kind to our dogs. I highly would consider them if anyone is in need of a great animal hospital.

Your positive feedback is greatly appreciated! We are thrilled to hear about your experience with our amazing staff. Thank you for trusting us with your pup's care!
Fantastic experience: I had to rush my boy here after he started yelping when walking. I was super worried because this is completely unlike him. I was overwhelmed and a bit scared. But as soon as we stepped into the building I felt a little relief. Everyone was so kind. Linda was extremely welcoming and kind. I believe she’s the one that was able to get us in so soon so I am extremely grateful for her! Minerva was patient (I mean they all were honestly) with my boy. He has anxiety and was totally not happy about being there. But she treated him so kindly which was very comforting. And our doctor Kelsey…she was super kind and explained everything so thoroughly. She also treated my boy with kindness and she did a wonderful job at reassuring me that he would be ok in the long run. I am extremely grateful for everyone in this facility. I hope this is the only urgent visit we need but I look forward to working with them at his upcoming visit. Of course Whiskey isnt happy about it, but I’m happy he gets the best treatment there.
Thanks for sharing your positive experience with us! We are glad to hear that our team provided excellent care for your boy. Looking forward to seeing you at the upcoming visit.
Fantastic experience: My sweet girl has become grumpy as a middle aged pup. It’s something we’re learning to adjust to, she needs a little extra love & attention. Northside always does so well with her, and they treat her so sweet even when she isn’t being very sweet herself. I’m grateful to have this vet’s office, they truly care about animals.
We genuinely admire your kind words about our care for your sweet girl. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
Fantastic experience: I am transitioning my cat family over to Northside Animal Hospital. I adopted a stray from them last year and saw how they handled the animals and the care they displayed. I also liked their urgent care options. They have fair pricing and come up with the best options for you and your furbabies. Im really happy to be part of their family.
Thank you for your review. We genuinely admire your kind words about our care and pricing options. We look forward to continuing to provide excellent service for your furbabies.
Fantastic experience: We brought baby to urgent care and Dr. Stewart and her team were wonderful. They took such great care of our baby Suzie. They kept us updated and we’re on top of their game during her visit in the hospital. I totally recommend them to anyone who’s seeking a great veterinarian’s office.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that Dr. Stewart and our team took great care of baby Suzie during her visit.
Fantastic experience: Gus’s first visit at 12 weeks (and about 12 degrees) was wonderful and calmed this nervous Nellie mom! Thank you Gaby for being so patient and warm welcome and Kristal for answering all my questions at least once and Dr. Kelsey for knowledge and assurance that we can work together to give Gus the best health options! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Hands down best in town. They take the time to talk to you about your furbaby and answer any questions all while maintaining wonderful customer service! Everyone is always friendly and makes you feel like a priority.
Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable, diagnosed problem without expensive tests, explained in terms that I could understand, wait time was minimal, clean in waiting room and Animal patient room. Friendly staff. I would recommend .
Fantastic experience: Dr. Kelsey, April, & Paige were so professional & efficient with providing care for our fur babies with both appointments we had. I will continue to receive care for our pets at Northside Animal Hospital
Fantastic experience: We love Northside Animal Hospital. We have been taking our dog there for years! They are always so nice and they take good care of our pup!
Fantastic experience: I love Northside! They have a great staff that listens to you but will advocate for your pet. As an existing patient of theirs, i was able to get and apt in less than 24 hours for a sick appointment. They go over all proposed services and gives you a form to sign ensuring you know the cost, which isn't terrible for vet fees. They have a in house pharmacy too which is so convenient! And they even have after hours care too, if needed. We love Northside.
We're happy to hear about your positive experience at Northside Animal Hospital! Thank you for sharing your feedback.
Fantastic experience: Animal care over money, just the way it should be! I had an appointment for sedated nail trim as my pup hates her paws being touched. We've had to do this a few times but I'm worried about the frequency. I expressed this to the tech. Only 5 minutes after dropping her off I got a call that they had been about to trim her nails successfully without sedation and without harm to anyone. They have me a prescription to help calm her down for next time and some advice on how to do it myself even. I appreciate their concern for best medical care over getting the most money. Will continue to go to this vet Before and after pics of my sweet baby's talons.
Fantastic experience: Took our chewy in for his annual check up. He is doing great. Dr Campbell and tech Paige was great. Just like all the staff there. We love going here and letting them Take care of my big boy.
Fantastic experience: Thank you to Northside Animal Hospital for taking great care of our Delilah. It is wonderful that we have an after hours emergency Vet clinic in Columbus .
Fantastic experience: I always have a great experience when I have an appointment appointments for my pets at Northside Animal Hospital. Dr. May is always thorough in her examinations and the receptionist. Gabby was very polite and kind gave an opportunity to sit out in the lobby for a few minutes before going into the examination room. Page was very courteous and professional with her conversation and dealing with the pets and finding out if there’s any situations or problems with them, your attitude and hospitality are awesome, and I will be recommending our other family members to to visit with their pets at the Northside Animal Hospital as well.
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience. Dr. Bell was very nice as was the tech Jennifer and Receptionist Gaby. I never have any issues when going there and they treat all my pups like family
Fantastic experience: Northside Animal Hospital absolutely exceeded my expectations during a very stressful emergency visit with my 10-month-old Golden Retriever. From the moment we walked in, April and Britney at the front desk were calm, compassionate, and incredibly helpful. They made sure we were taken care of quickly and explained everything clearly, which made a huge difference in the moment. Dr. Stewart was outstanding — professional, patient, and very thorough. He took the time to explain what was going on, answered all of my questions, and treated my puppy with genuine care and attention. You can tell he truly loves what he does. A big thank you as well to the tech assistant, who was amazing with my dog — gentle, attentive, and reassuring throughout the entire process. Emergency visits are never easy, but this team made a difficult situation manageable and comforting. I’m extremely grateful for the level of care, communication, and professionalism shown by everyone at Northside Animal Hospital. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Amazing staff. As soon as I walked in the door I was greeted and welcomed. I was checked in and taken to our room right away. The nurse came in within 5 mins and explained to me everything that they were wanting to do for my dog then told me the pricing and then asked if I wanted to continue with the plan. I was also offered some cheaper plans but I chose to go with the original plan because the price was reasonable. The entire staff was very polite and helpful and explained everything to me before they did anything. This was my 2nd time coming to Northside. The 1st time was when I had to have my older, sick dog put down. The staff was super respectful and comforted me and my family as we had to say goodbye to one of our family members. I truly appreciate the entire staff at Northside and will definitely be coming back because I believe they put my dog and my best interest first.
Fantastic experience: Our dog ate a lot of chocolate and they were able to get us in within 20 minutes to get it all out! Dr Shea and vet tech Alicia were so good with our skittish dog! So friendly and knowledgeable! Gary at the front desk was SO nice and answered a lot of my questions as well

Feeling truly heard and supported meant so much. I’m grateful for this team — highly recommend Northside Animal Hospital.

Fantastic experience: Came in with a pup with a serious limp. Dr. Shea was extremely compassionate and kind to me even though I was in shambles. They referred me to a specialist for further evaluation, however said I was welcome to come back if we could not afford that option.
We deeply cherish your kind words and are glad we could assist with your pup's care. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
Fantastic experience: We had an emergency after hours during a holiday. We are so grateful Northside Animal Hospital was open and could help our sick dog. Dr. Shea, Jennifer, the tech assistant and Ashlee, the receptionist were all excellent. They explained everything that was happening in a way we understood and shared the treatment plan. Worth every penny.

Fantastic experience: Currently at the emergency clinic to get my cat checked out and they are doing everything they can to handle him with him being a very hostile cat. We saw Dr Shea, assistant Jennifer, and receptionist Ashlee. They were all very kind and are doing everything they can to try to help my baby. Provided he will let them.
Your positive experience with our team means a lot to us. Thank you for sharing your feedback, Elaina.
Positive experience: My 8 month old kitten (Milo) was boarded for the weekend while I had to go out of town. He had to have a wellness check prior and had to give a fecal specimen. Intake was smooth except for it not being clear that the specimen was required prior to boarding for testing to be completed. Had I known this, I would have supplied this when we came to the wellness appointment the day before. It was suggested that Milo get a bath after being boarding with a 50% off discount. I also asked for his nails to be trimmed. I did have to pay for an additional day because of the bath option, because as stated in the paperwork he would not be ready until after 2:00 pm. Therefore, it would be past the 9:00 am deadline to not be charged. He ended up being ready at 11:30 am. So I feel there should be a discount on the boarding fee on the day of pick up as well. I paid for the full day for an extra 2.5 hours. All in all, for this to be my fur baby's first experience with Northside Animal Hospital, I was pleased and would recommend. They gave me peace of mind while I was away from my fur baby for the first time.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're glad Milo had a positive first stay with us. Your feedback has been noted.
Fantastic experience: Very happy with all visits to this animal hospital. The vet was compassionate and understanding. Since the initial visit, we have used the boarding service and had our cat's nails trimmed . All of the staff that we have met so far have been very friendly and helpful.

Fantastic experience: We took our three year old kitty to Dr. Stewart of Northside Animal Hospital, she and her assistant Alicia were wonderful. They were so gentle that we didn't even need to use a purrito. We found the entire staff to be friendly and efficient. The receptionist Linda was kind and thorough, helping us with the pre-registration when we had trouble with the computer appointment program.
Thank you for sharing your experience with Dr. Stewart and our team at Northside Animal Hospital. We're glad to hear that your kitty received gentle care from our staff.

We're delighted to hear about your positive experience with Dr. Bell and our team at Northside Animal Hospital. Thank you for recommending us!
Fantastic experience: Outstanding and excellent care! We took our 3yr old Kitty named Sunee due to our normal vet office being closed. Doctor Shea, Paige, and Linda were incredibly sweet and attentive to our baby's needs. They won us over 100%! Thank you for everything.

Fantastic experience: We've been taking our dogs here for years and they always give amazing quality service. This last time we saw Doctor Kelsey when our dog Edward had some pain issues and she was such a pro at getting him diagnosed. Alicia and April were both incredibly helpful at getting us situated and getting him checked and taken care of.
We are honored to have provided quality service for your dogs. Thank you for your kind words.
Fantastic experience: Took new puppy after hours to Northside Animal Hospital. She was very sick and in need of a vet. Dr. Kelsey, tech Taylor and Linda were excellent. They looked after my puppy, diagnosed the issue and provided outstanding service.
We are privileged to have been able to provide outstanding service to your new puppy. Thank you for choosing Northside Animal Hospital.
Fantastic experience: I had an old pittie who's final day was nearing and she got down and I had to pick her up and carry her to the car.I was extremely emotional as she had been my companion for 14 years,and my daddy was the one who had the job of putting our dogs down but he was no longer with us.This was the first time I had ever had to put a dog down!. I rushed her to Northside.The staff came to the car , asked a few questions,loaded her on a gurney and went in to start treatment if possible..Unfortunately,it was her time.The staff there were soooo compassionate kind,caring and understanding.They made a very difficult and emotional situation much easier for me.I couldn't have made the decision to do what was best for my canine companion had it not been for their love and support! I've been using them ever since! Thank ya'll! Northside is the BEST!
We're grateful for your kind words and are glad we could support you during such a difficult time. Thank you for choosing Northside Animal Hospital.
Fantastic experience: I honestly don't have nice enough comments to make for everyone involved in my pet's visit earlier. My cat, Kermit, has been to at least five vets in his last five years, and Northside is my favorite. The tech, Minerva, was super attentive and really kind, and she listened to my prattle on with unending questions. The vet, Dr. Steward, is insanely knowledgeable and friendly. You can tell she knows her stuff and is current on animal health. No one tried to upsell me or get me out quickly. They know what my cat needs for his age and whatever his ailments were. The receptionist, Jennifer, very kind as well and answered any questions. These were all people I look forward to seeing again for my cat's primary vet. I did go through searching for a lot of new vets in the area since I'm new. It's a little nerve-racking to find a new place, but I'm so happy to have landed on this one. They also have affordable credit card options for sevices and take my cat's insurance, which is a huge plus. Kermit appreciated the compliments about what a good boy he was. He had a few things done, and hardly flinched with his shots. I feel good about his care and his vaccines he was given. The Churus and cat treats help, too! Again, I can't say enough things. Northside understands how much we love our pets, and knowing Kermit is in good hands means the world to me. I give this vet clinic all the stars!
We greatly appreciate your positive feedback and are thrilled to hear about your experience at Northside Animal Hospital. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Fantastic experience: Me and my fur-baby just had our first visit at Northside Animal Hospital. We had an absolutely incredible experience with the entire staff. The technician Paige and receptionist Linda were very warm and welcoming. They were very patient and caring with my poodle, as she sometimes gets nervous going to the vet. Dr Shea Smith is the queen of poodles! We bonded over stories of her telling me about her 2 poodles that she owns herself. We traveled all the way from Montgomery Alabama and we will definitely be making the transition to see them as our regular veterinarian. I will 100% recommend this clinic to anyone.
We are pleased to hear about your incredible experience at Northside Animal Hospital. Thank you for recommending us!
Fantastic experience: May was great with my fur baby. Imani did great at handling my cat that is scared of the vet and Linda was great at checking me in! Love this place and they work with you. Def recommend this vet!

Fantastic experience: We had a rabbit that needed to be spayed so we took her to Northside Animal Hospital because they have vets that handle rabbits. Booked an appointment over the phone and was given a date very quick. Our first visit went great and we were given plenty of information and even told of risk to any surgery. Very happy to be warned up front and not surprised. The surgery was scheduled for just two days out. The process was extremely easy and quick and I was kept notified throughout. Our rabbit, Cricket, had pulled her stitches out a bit that after noon after being home for a bit and we called and was told to immediately bring Cricket back in. My daughter was scared and in tears but our vet, Shea, immediately reassured my daughter that it happens and she took Cricket back and fixed her up. Cricket got a body suit to make sure she didn’t pick at the spot again. Shea could not have been more pleasant and caring! She was amazing during all of this and the staff was very kind throughout. I very highly recommend Northside Animal Hospital and we will continue to see them whenever we need help for Cricket! Thank you!

Fantastic experience: My dog a emergency with two fishing hooks incident. I took my baby with me fishing. She step on a crankbait and hooks hot deep in her paw. I had to get her to the animal hospital. Northside Animal Hospital took excellent care of my Roxy. They got in as soon as we step in and took the hooks right out. Give her medicine for the pain and she came out happy. I would definitely recommend this animal hospital to anyone. Everyone was very kind and helpful and even a few fishing stores that calm me down. A very nice place for loving four legged friends .
We're overjoyed to hear that Roxy received excellent care at Northside Animal Hospital. Thank you for sharing your experience!

Fantastic experience: We took our male dachshund here a few months ago. I was extremely pleased with the care he received.

Fantastic experience: My dog was bitten by a venomous snake around 9pm. I called ahead and they were waiting for us. The staff was wonderful, cheerfully staying until around midnight to administer antivenin and fluids. The doctor was very caring and informative. I came in fully panicked and terrified and left feeling much better about the situation. She's recovering nicely and I couldn't be more grateful.
We are utterly delighted to hear about your positive experience at Northside Animal Hospital. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Fantastic experience: After Northside treated us like family when we had to put our senior dog down, it was a no-brainer to use them for our new puppy. They always go above and beyond each visit, and we leave with every question answered. We are forever grateful for Northside and it’s a relief knowing our new baby is in good hands! We saw Dr. May and Ms. Jennifer during our puppy’s visit!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been bringing my dog, Beau, to Northside Animal Hospital for a couple years, and they are wonderful! Dr. Short is so sweet. She is knowledgeable and always attentive, which is much appreciated as having a senior dog can be challenging. The techs and assistants are friendly and welcoming as well. The receptionist, Vicky, was so accommodating last week whenever I needed to make a last minute appointment. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a client of Northside Animal Hospital for years, and every visit reminds me why I keep coming back. From the friendly receptionist, April, to the caring vet tech, Paige, and the always-thorough Dr. Bell — the entire team is incredible. I recently brought in all three of my dogs at once, and they handled it with patience, efficiency, and kindness. I had a lot of questions, and everyone took the time to answer each one clearly and thoughtfully. I couldn’t ask for a better experience. Highly recommend Northside Animal Hospital!

Fantastic experience: The worst things happen to your fur-babies after hours. No matter your own experience in vet med, it's still a scary and powerless feeling... especially knowing what's going on but theres nothing you can do at home. IYKYK! My husband and I are so incredibly thankful for Dr Stacia and her team last night!! ❤️ You guys are amazing! Our baby, Freyja, was found in a box, abandoned on Ft Benning with her brother 7 years ago. We have had so many struggles with her; mental/behavioral changes and overall physical health. In Aug of 2025 she suddenly went blind and was diagnosed with a brain tumor. We knew our time was limited but we thought "Not us, she'll power through this!"... 2 months later and after 1 amazing day where she played, had zoomies and moving a little better she started seizing, inability to walk, and her overall awareness was just gone. There was no waiting anymore. 9pm on a Friday night and Dr Stacia said to head her way. Thank you all so much for accepting us after hours, making the whole process easy but most importantly, to ease our girls suffering.
We are delighted to have been able to assist you and your fur-baby during such a difficult time. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
Fantastic experience: I initially went here because my pup had an emergency and my regular vet wouldn't take her. The treatment we received was awesome. You feel like your pet is care for here. After our emergency services, we received follow-up texts. My husband and I discussed how different, in a good way, it felt to go here. I decided to switch veterinary care. I have no doubt my pups will live happy healthy lives under their care.
We are honored to have provided excellent care for your pup during the emergency. Your pets will be in good hands at Northside Animal Hospital.
Fantastic experience: I so love Dr Stacia, she is the absolute best vet we've ever had. Our 4 go to her for their yearly and and other services needed.
Thank you for your kind words about Dr. Stacia! We deeply respect your feedback and are glad to hear your pets are well taken care of at Northside Animal Hospital.

Fantastic experience: We had a situation where our cat Nagi ingested something toxic. Linda was able to fit us into their schedule very quickly. We were seen by tech Jenifer and Dr. Kelley and given a treatment plan that proved to improve our beloved Nagi's health back to normal within a few days. Thank you NCAH!
We're happy to hear that Nagi's health improved with our treatment plan. Thank you for your wonderful feedback!
Fantastic experience: We have been at Northside for 3 1/2 yrs with our baby and have always had exceptional service. Not to leave anyone out but Ms Vickie is AWESOME!!! Not just today but anytime we have dealt with her she has been very friendly and patient with me because today I asked a bunch of different questions and she went above helping me. They were very busy and she still took the time to answer all questions while I told her I could wait if she needed me to, but she was very efficient at getting all the families and their babies taken care of. Thank you once again for all your explanations and suggestions. ❤️
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We genuinely admire your kind words and are thrilled to hear about your positive interactions with our team, especially Ms. Vickie. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing you and your furry friend again soon!
Fantastic experience: I was concerned about Machito this weekend, so on Saturday I called Northside and they made an appointment for him on Monday. I hear from friends on long they have to wait for appointments, not here. We were called into a treatment room in less than 3 minutes after logging in. Tori did what we call triage in the hospital. She asked about our concerns, took Machito to the back area for checkup, brought him back and told us that the doctor would be in so see us. Dr. May explained in detail the situation. She mentioned our options. We made our choices. We checked out with April, she offered some suggestions, we listened and chose. My experience with this appointment is the reason why for 15 years they were Chula's ( my female yorkie) veterinarians and now 5 years with Machito.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us, Alberto. We are glad to hear that you had a positive visit with us and that we were able to address your concerns promptly. Your feedback is incredibly valuable to us.
Fantastic experience: My son’s dog was hit by a car yesterday. In a panic, we headed to Northside Animal Hospital. Right away Linda greeted us and we immediately knew we’d come to the right place. We were taken to a room right away, where Mandy calmly and gently took a look at Sadie and gathered her history - which is vague, as she was a stray that just showed up and didn’t want to leave (even after being strongly encouraged - my son already has 3 cats). Even though they were really busy with two other dogs more critical than ours, Mandy checked on us every few minutes, gathering vitals. After Sadie got results from bloodwork and x-rays and was checked by Dr. Shea, we were relieved to find that there was no internal bleeding and her paw and leg were badly swollen and pretty skinned up, but nothing was broken. Sadie was loved on and we left with pain meds and detailed instructions. We cannot thank Northside and the amazing staff enough for their expertise and caring treatment.
We genuinely admire the kind words you shared about your experience at Northside Animal Hospital. Thank you for trusting us with Sadie's care.
