I want to add more love and gratitude for St. Francis (Dr. Cheeks, Dr. Garner, Dr. Landes, Mary, Kylee, Ashley, and everyone else) for never ever suggesting Matilda pass earlier, for always believing in her and greeting her with optimism and genuine happiness to see her, for bringing her relief and medical care that sustained her quality of life, for Dr. Cheeks' reassurance on the most painful day and for remembering that Matilda's ears were cute and soft, and for all of the love and support for her on her last day. My heart is broken to pieces, but I would have been broken sooner had it not been for the love and care of SFAH. Thank you, always. It would take way too long to write how much I love this place. I know everyone here, they all know my pets and me by name, and I feel like I'm a part of their family. I have made friends here, found my pet sitter here, they have gone above and beyond to make sure my dog is cared for when she comes in, and they have even helped me make flexible payments when I was struggling to pay from another country. Dr. Landes is another important part of the team, and she and her staff do chiropractic adjustments and red light laser therapy on my dog for her arthritis. I so appreciate her intelligence and resourceful ways in tackling all available healing methods. Dr. Garner is especially brilliant, invaluable, and a core part of the foundation of this business. Anytime I bring my dog in, he comes out and sits down with me and explains everything to me for quite some time so that I can make an informed decision based on my financial ability and the fact that I love my dog and want to keep her as happy as possible for as long as possible. I am so grateful for him and for the whole team. This is my forever primary vet for as long as I live in the CSRA.

I just picked this practice from the net as it has good reviews and is close to where we live. I have been nothing but please by the entire staff-clerical, nursing and vet medicine in every respect. The facility is superb, always clean and we;; kept and is of high quality. My lab had a mass removed from her lower jaw and Dr Berkshire not only did a superb job but was kind and caring to our senior lab. When I first went there I didnt tell them I was a children's surgeon and just let them go on and they explained things perfectly and in depth. They are competitive in their pricing compared to our vets in Baltimore and explain why they want a particular test or exam before hey order it. Truly professional throughout the entire staff.

Dr Tribby and his staff are knowledgeable, professional, and took great care of our babies. They went above and beyond to do micro testing for my kitty whose ears have been bothering her, got us the results and antibiotic drops before we left. Check ups and full vaccination boosters as well as the test and additional treatment for one of our cats under $450 is very reasonable. We will be gladly returning and I recommend this facility to pet owners in the area. My only complaint is that they had 2 large peace lily plants in the treatment room, which are pretty well known to be toxic to cats. Not sure why they would choose to have that in a vet office. Other than that it was a great experience!

I took my dog here in 2019 and I was so impressed by the lady who came out to get him and spoke to…read moreme about his care that I put this place on a pedestal. We also took my daughter's dog here when he had Parvo and they gave him excellent care in 2020 and he came home. When the Aiken vet that my husband's family has used for 20+ years, proved it was not a worthy vet, I decided that All God's Creatures would be the place that we would go, no matter how far I had to drive. He had dental surgery scheduled yesterday morning and I called them on Friday to ask if they would be reaching out to let us know of any changes in operating hours on Monday because of the weather. I was assured that they would let me know. Drove 45 minutes and I arrived for surgery at 7:40 AM and nobody was there. I called the only phone number that they have with no answer, knocked on the door and I sat there until 815. There was no way I was going to drive home immediately so I went looking on Facebook to see if there was somebody, anybody that I could reach out to to find out what was going on. I don't follow them on Facebook. And right there was a post saying that they were not going to open until 10:00 AM due to the weather and they would reach out to reschedule via their Facebook page and email. I checked my email and there was nothing. Nohing in junk mail, no phone calls, voicemails, texts. Nothing. Drove another 45 minutes to take my dog home and get myself to work. I'm at work for 30 minutes and I get a phone call asking me to bring him in "now" at which time I explained to her what happened and it was completely blown over. I left work and I went home and got my dog, drove to Augusta again and I took him in. While there I explained to someone else what happened and it again was completely disregarded. "They were supposed to email the cancellations". BUT YOU DIDN'T! And WHY would an email be a sufficient means in which to cancel a surgery??? Not only do I not get notifications for my emails, I don't look at them daily. So even if I had gotten one I wouldn't have known. She tells me they're gonna start the surgery in about 30 minutes and I should get a phone call around 2 PM. Updating me about how it went. I didn't receive any phone call anywhere around 2 o'clock so sometime around 3:30 I started calling to see what was going on. ALL DAY FROM THE MOMENT I TRIED TO DROP HIM OFF I MADE 22 calls and not one was answered. No compensation, no sincere apology, NOTHING. Well, I have a big mouth and I will run it about this interaction until the end of my days when anything involving veterinary care comes up with anyone I'm talking to. For seven years, I've told people about the amazing visits that we've had there and that's over. The staff that you had is clearly not the staff that you have now. My husband also said when he picked him up that the girl at the front was not friendly at all. Also, at our pre-surgical appointment the tech that came into the room was grossly picking food out of her back molars with her fingers after she walked into the room. Gross. And maybe don't do that. On a positive note, it was cheaper than the quote we got at the overrated Aiken Vet and my dog is alive and doing well today.

It's typically nice and clean and staff are nice and professional. You have to sign agreement to pay when arriving but thats understandable since veterinarian care is expensive without insurance. My cat passed away here and they gave us time to say our goodbye to him. They had packages to cremate and for memorization if you wanted them. Financing is available too though I can't say much on that topic since I didn't utilize it. Hope you won't have to bring your pet here, but the vets here are compassionate and I can tell they care about animals.

Exceptional Care from a Truly Wonderful Team!…read more From the moment you enter Hammond Hills Animal Clinic, you feel welcomed and cared for. The receptionist is compassionate, attentive, and genuinely loves every dog and cat who comes through the door. That same warmth and professionalism extend throughout the entire team. The veterinarian and veterinary assistants are gentle, knowledgeable, organized, and truly concerned about each pet's well-being. Nothing feels rushed, and every visit reflects genuine care and teamwork. I trust Hammond Hills Animal Clinic completely with my dogs and cats and appreciate the love and attention they receive. This is more than a veterinary clinic--it is a team that truly cares about animals and their families. I highly recommend them for exceptional veterinary care!

Hammond Hills Animal Hospital saved our dog's life and her leg…read more Four weeks ago today, our Labrador, Luna, suffered a devastating injury while fetching a ball. She deeply cut her front leg on a glass landscape light and the injury was severe with profuse bleeding. Because she was bleeding so heavily, we did not have time to make the 45-minute drive to our regular veterinarian or call ahead to find one nearby. Instead, we rushed her to Hammond Hills Animal Hospital, just a couple of minutes from our home. It turned out to be one of the best decisions we could have made. While my wife held pressure, I ran inside to ask for help. They immediately sent Morgan to meet us in the parking lot. She applied pressure bandages to help control the bleeding and helped us get Luna safely inside. The staff dropped what they were doing and rushed her into surgery. After a long and complex operation performed by Dr. Rutt and the surgical team, we learned that Luna had severed two arteries, numerous veins, muscles, and a tendon on the back of her front leg beneath her carpal pad. It was a serious injury, and we knew her recovery would be a long one. Over the past four weeks, the team at Hammond Hills has been with us every step of the way. Every injury--and every dog--is different, but they continually adjusted Luna's treatment plan as she healed. They patiently taught us how to change her bandages at home, offered new ideas when challenges arose, guided us through home sedation, infections, complications, and were always available to answer questions and make changes when needed. Their expertise, compassion, and encouragement gave Luna the best possible chance to recover. Today, four weeks later, Luna is making wonderful progress, and we couldn't be more grateful. We feel like we didn't just find an outstanding veterinary hospital--we found a team of people who genuinely care about their patients and the families who love them. We now have complete confidence in Hammond Hills and they now care for all of our pets. A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Rutt, Morgan, Jennifer, Brooke, Christine, Kent, and especially Karen. Your expertise, kindness, flexibility, patience, and dedication have meant more to us than words can express. Thank you for helping save Luna and for being there for us throughout her recovery. We deeply appreciate everything you have done.

I just moved to Augusta and was looking for a vet.. This is what I'd call a very mediocre animal…read moreclinic. That's a scary thing to say when they are supposed to care for pet family members.. It's gloomy, the people who work there obviously hate their jobs. I paid for two office visits and the vet hardly gave my dogs a glance. When I brought up my dog's anxiety, she instead told me about her friend who had anxiety. It was appalling to say the least. When they were getting my meds together, I noticed how dirty the exam room was. I have never seen anything like this and couldn't wait to leave. My dog needs a dental but won't be getting it there. It's that bad.

First and foremost, the young lady at the front desk (who was not Peggy) was kind, smiling, welcoming, and friendly with both her words and demeanor. She asked us to wait one moment while she checked out another customer, which was quick and easy, and immediately checked us in. We discussed the reason for our visit, and she happily took our pet to the back for her immunization. She returned a few minutes later with my pet and led us to an exam room so that Dr. Henderson could speak with us. There was no lengthy wait this time; Dr. Henderson was in the room within two minutes. She went over my pet's health, reason for our pet's visit, and asked if we had any other questions regarding our pet's health or the visit in general, of which I didn't have any. Dr. Henderson then apologized for the events of our last visit. She reassured me that the new office manager had been informed of the events, and instituted changes that should prevent any further issues in the future. To be fair, it appeared to me that these changes were effective considering the night-day difference between our last visit only two weeks ago and now. Dr. Henderson offered me an opportunity to speak with the manager myself, to which I declined, and commented that our visit today was a completely different experience from our previous visit. I thanked her for the opportunity, and that was the end of our interaction. Checkout was super quick and easy, and the bill was much MUCH better this time, and on par with previous billing for the same type of visit. I hope that this experience is the new standard at Paradise: A friendly, professional, and welcoming front desk; adherence to appointment times with little or no waiting (things do happen, it's understandable. But minimize the impact on other appointments); a quick, no-nonsense appointment with an awesome, knowledgeable, friendly and personable veterinarian; comparable and competitive pricing for services. Time will tell, but I am encouraged.
