Hillside Animal Clinic

We love Dr Allen, what more can I say? He knows when I call it’s something I can’t handle and pretty serious. He always is kind when we’ve had to euthanize one of our own, or one of the rescues horses.

I absolutely love how interactive the staff is. They contacted me to let me know my dog was a little anxious, so they played soft music, gave him a soft blanket and gave playtime .They really do an amazing job! This is the only place I will leave my fur baby.

I have been taking my dogs to Hillside Animal Clinic for almost 7 years. The doctors and staff are always warm and friendly and take time to not only speak with me, but to talk to my fur baby also. They encourage us to bring our babies by for a treat and some love on a day that they aren’t scheduled to help put them at ease with the environment. I have had a doc call me after hours to go over test results that they had already discussed with my husband because I wanted to ask questions. The docs are thorough and care. They are fabulous, and I can’t say enough great things about this practice!

I don’t think 5 stars justifies the appreciation we have for hillside. Our original vet almost let our sweet pup suffer for not doing an in depth exam. They performed life saving surgery for our sweet boy here at hillside, and we are forever grateful. Their passion, dedication, and swift thinking saved our dogs life.

I love this vet clinic! Staff is consistently thorough, compassionate and knowledgeable. I have had dogs terrified to visit the vet prior to visiting hillside. They no longer fight going in because the staff dote on them so much!

I love all the staff we have had! But we always request tech Noël, Dr. Bercz, or Dr. Schfiano. They always have our dogs best interest at heart + love them like we do! All three dogs are so different in personalities, but Hillside knows how to handle them. We do have a fearfully aggressive girl + they do everything they can to keep her comfortable + safe! Hillside also takes care of our goats, which we love! One vet for all our animals!

I can't tell you how much it means to have a vet come to your horse whenever they are needed. Dr. Joe is a true lifesaver! He's very compassionate, takes the time to explain everything, and he cares about your big fur babies!
We appreciate you so much and hope you know it means the world to us!
The office staff are absolute angels as well as being so down to earth and super friendly. I've never had a bad experience at this clinic. I love the ladies who check us out after our visits. They always make sure we are taken care of and I could sit and grab with them for hours but they are busy ladies and they deserve recognition for how awesome they always are.

I’m terrible with names, but the ladies that took care of my kitten “Mowie”went above and beyond. It was my first time taking a pet to the vet and they made sure to give a fully comprehensive and pleasant experience. I wish I could remember the ladies name I spent the most time with, but she truly went above and beyond for me. From explaining everything down to the dollar, to offering to help carry my pet to my car seeing as how I’m 34 weeks pregnant. She turned what could have been an uneasy and frustrating environment to one I comfortably look forward to appointment to appointment.

Thank you Dr. Dalton for taking care of Holly, she is doing fantastic. Your staff and techs were wonderful to work with, would highly recommend. The aftercare instructions were very thorough, thank you for that. Sincerely, Mary S.

My fur baby is 16 years old. I took her to the vet last week because I thought it was the end. after bloodwork and and a wellness evaluation. The vet determined that she has arthritis and kidney disease. The vet was fabulous. She calmed my nerves and my fur babies nerves. They put her on a pain reliever and changed her food and she is feeling great. Hopping around like herself again.
I thank God for Hillside Animal Clinic

I love it here. I have 2 dogs, one would be special needs, and from the moment we arrived the first time we came here the staff was AMAZING! They are caring and attentive to not only our pets, but they all listened to our questions and actually spent time answering them. I can not say enough good things about this place. I will not take my pets anywhere else.

Hillside is my favorite. Staff always makes me feel comfortable when they take my pups back for treatment. I love my dogs very much and knowing that the staff will not only take care of them but pet and love on them as well means a lot me. The doctors seem well versed in their trade. Hillside has a great facility. Wish they would start a 24/7 hospital. Louisville is a long travel in an emergency. Thanks a lot Hillside staff.

Hillside got me in immediately and were very professional and patient with my crazy and barky young doxie. The vet was very upfront about costs and our different options, too, which I appreciated. I love that the office is open later through the week and on Saturdays in case one of my animals gets sick. We are switching to Hillside for our veterinary needs after a couple of excellent experiences with them and talking on the phone about how they would handle a couple of potential issues dogs sometimes have. We have seen two vets at this location and I liked them both and found them knowledgeable and kind. So far, so good!

I feel like they did a wonderful job they took my dog in as an emergency case and other veterinarian hospitals for the attention my dog needed was going to start out $9,000 at some of them went from $5, 000 to 4,000$ now. This was without even seeing her witch is a Pitbull that's never been around others to much an very protective so she was not real happy but they took excellent care of her and come to find out she was not infected in her bloodstream but only caused it $400 and some odd dollars and I think that they are great and I highly recommend them they took her right back and get everything on her with good care one to five star rating I gave them a "" 10 "" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ and thank you guys that work there very much thanks from me Teresa Wheeler and my Baby Girl "Pandora" 🐾

Cannot thank them enough! Wonderful staff & vet. Helpful, caring, kind & friendly. They were there for us in our time of after hours need!

The staff really cares about my pets. I love how gentle they are with them. They also take time to talk to me about any concerns I may have. I never feel rushed.

Hillside is fantastic! They really care about your animals. I wouldn't send them anywhere else. I have a 12 year old red lab that wasn't acting herself and they were quick to act when I brought her in. Within an hour and a half after examination and xrays she was in surgery having her spleen removed. It had developed a large tumor and needed to come out. The staff were exceptional and my puppers was home by the next evening and back to her old self. They saved her life.
My Puppers and I are forever grateful. Thank you so much!

I have been going to Hillside since 1978. They were the only large animal clinic in the area to care for horses. But they had small animal services also available. I was impressed with Dr. BANET keeping up with latest research and that he helped new vets get established.
We presently are fostering a little cocker which we plan to adopt so she was taken to get a wellness exam plus necessary shots and tests. Everything went very well. We had a good visit.

Dr. Joe is amazing. I’ve been bringing my babies to see him for a few years and can say he’s the best vet I’ve ever been to. He’s extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I can’t remember everyone’s names but his staff is excellent as well. Thank everyone for making my dogs and I feel so welcomed!!

My baby was extremely nervous going into their vet office for the first time and they took the best care possible of her. She was only there for routine vaccines and a check up but they made sure to accommodate her needs to get her in and out as quickly as possible. I can’t say thank you enough to them for their professionalism and their compassion the whole team showed us! From walking into the door to getting checked out to leave, they all loved my dog and were happy to see her and tried their best to make her feel comfortable! So happy to have found a trustworthy vet!
