Look careful at your bill. they charge a $10 fee for hazardous waste disposal automatically even if your pet didnt have any procedures, and when you call to question this the response is" it is what it is". I strongly feel everyone that works there is terribly incompetent.

I don't have negative things to say about their knowledge of veterinary medicine or their ability to treat sick pets. My problem stems from their policy of taking in pets. My 14 year old English Springer Spaniel is ill, no surprise at his age. Their policy is that you have to drop your pet off. I asked if he had to be put down could I go in and they said no. That is just about the most insensitive thing I have ever encountered in my life.

You have an old dog scared and he can't go in with his family. He has to be dropped off and make that walk alone! That is irresponsibly wrong for the pet and his owner. Fortunately I found a vet that understands how painful moments like this are and allow pet owners to accompany their pet. This is obviously due to the panic of Covid. Their policy is not humane and if they are that panicked over Covid then perhaps they should close their business until the hysteria is over.

This is the worst experience I had in many years. My appointment was at 1:45. I got there around 1:30, called their grainy desk. The person picked up the phone sounded like he has no idea after I made a appoint and confirmed the appoint 2 days ago. The person had to retake my dog and my information. I had to wait in my car for 40 min. I had to call them multiple times for them to come and pick up my dog.

With 5 min, I got a call from them demanding payment. They claimed multiple vaccine shots and dewormer. I am wondering if they have enough time to walk my dog to the Vet. The lady collect the payment was extremely rude hang up on me multiple times. I would not recommend anyone go to them. Be Careful! This place is sketchy! I would give 0 start if that is an option

Dr. Wember is great! He explains everything and gives you options. I have an elderly dog and it's tough making decisions and Dr. Wember is super nice and helpful! Gerry and the rest of the staff are great too! All very nice and caring!

My dog has been going to Hancock animal hospital for 9 years and I can't imagine him getting any better care and doctors.
