Hello fellow guest before you plan going to this hospital just now your dog or cat won't be taken right oh away which doesn't make sense if it's a hospital. This place doesn't even deserve a star very disrespectful my dog needed immediately attention had us wait to ring a doorbell to tell us they couldn't take my dog only because it has to be by appointment Very ridiculous if you ask me now think twice before coming here! Dog lovers or cats lovers if you're pet had a cause coming here to be told by appointment definitely not recommended safe your pets people. >.

I've been taking our four cats to Dr. Baley at Golf-Mill animal hospital for years and have always been happy with the care they receive, and most importantly how they always find time to take care of emergency situations. If one of my cats is suddenly ill, they squeeze them in for a visit. Just yesterday though they went beyond the call of duty and made time for my daughter's sick cat. My daughter who lives in the city called her regular vet and they said they didn't have an appointment available for 2.5 months.
I called Golf-Mill animal hospital and Dr. Baley saw my daughter's cat that afternoon. Because the cat was seen asap, Dr. Baley likely saved this little kitty's life. He has a way to go until full recovery, but waiting even another day or two could have been disastrous. Thank you so much Dr. Baley and everyone at Golf-Mill Animal Hospital. Many phone calls were involved with the support staff and they were always pleasant, professional and sympathetic.

Wow! What a team of people here at this vet! My 10 year old German shepherd has a cyst rupture on Monday morning. I called my vet and they said they could not get me in until the next day and recommended if I wanted immediate care to go to the emergency (who fleece people and their pets who are in need). I called around to try to get him in ASAP to avoid any infection. The people here at golf mill veterinary hospital got me in within hours and took care of my old pup! Thank you everyone at this office! Also very affordable!

We have been using golf mil vet for over 8 years. They have great employees. They always get back to you in a timely manner and really care about the animals. I trust them with all 4 of our animals and plan on using them for our next animals as well. The parking gets a little hard to pull in and out of though.

A great team of professional people from veterinarians, Technicians and support team. Every single person is kind, loving and supportive to both my husband and I and of course our fur babies Roxie & Ditka. I have had other doggies go to this veterinary clinic since 1978 when Dr. Zand was the original owner. I have been so happy with all the care all my dogs have received-
I highly recommend this veterinarian clinic. Thank you Dr. Baley, Dr. Hague and Dr. Met.
