Kindness Animal Hospital

Our comprehensive wellness exams assess pets' overall health through vital sign checks, weight monitoring, and organ function evaluations. We customize prevention plans based on individual needs while discussing nutrition and behavioral concerns. This proactive approach helps detect potential issues early for better long-term outcomes.

We provide specialized treatment for non-traditional pets including reptiles, birds, and small mammals. Our experienced team addresses unique dietary needs, habitat requirements, and species-specific health concerns. This service ensures proper care for animals that require different medical approaches than common household pets.

During business hours, we offer prompt medical attention for sudden illnesses or injuries. Our team handles cases like vomiting, difficulty breathing, and minor trauma with immediate diagnostic testing and treatment. We maintain partnerships for after-hours emergencies when capacity prevents same-day care.

Our dental services include professional cleanings, oral exams, and treatment for gum disease or tooth decay. Using gentle techniques, we address oral health issues while minimizing stress for pets. Regular dental maintenance prevents systemic health problems associated with poor oral hygiene.

We utilize digital X-rays, ultrasounds, and in-house lab work for accurate health assessments. This technology enables precise diagnosis of internal issues and guides effective treatment plans. Our diagnostic capabilities support timely interventions for both routine and complex medical conditions.

This is the first time I took my male cockatiel Angel the kindness I've taken my other birds to them before and had very good luck I always thankful for what they do to help my animals and they're close by

They squeezed us in during an emergency situation helped us fully understand the situation. Everyone there is extremely nice and very knowledgeable. Very willing to help us in anyway possible to help save our puppy.

So grateful for you guys! Thank you for making sure Scorpius was healthy. The Doctor was wonderful and so kind, we are forever thankful

Dr McDougall is wonderful. She goes the extra distance that so many other vets do not. She contacts other specialists to discuss complex cases and issues that she has not previously dealt a lot. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Facilities are clean and smell clean (no unpleasant pet smells). This is a smaller vet clinic that has within the last few years combined with Oakwood Hills Animal Hospital, though they are a separate facility.

I have actually decided to switch my dogs over to Kindness rather than continuing to drive to Oakwood because of Dr McDougall. She listens to the owners' thoughts and experiences with prior pets with what appears to be the same illness. She takes those into consideration and offers her opinion and goes from there. She is very willing to work with owners to accommodate the best needs of the pets. I highly recommend Kindness Animal Hospital.

The dental care our Viszla received was amazing.she needed 2 broken molars removed. We were able to fit into a cancelation. The vets kept us informed during the surgery and after with info for future care. They answered every question and took the time to make sure our girl was healthy. I am looking forward to a great relationship between their vets and our two spoiled viszlas.

Love love love kindness animal hospital. They took amazing care of my buttercup and helped me every way they could. Could not recommend them more, they are awesome!
