College Animal Hospital

My dog brooklyn has been there a few times. They are very friendly, great patience, and caring! They did told us very details about what my dog had. Very impressive!! Highly recommended!!

I haven't even brought my cat in yet, but I already feel like I'm in good hands. I called with some pretty complicated questions about traveling with my pet, and Trixie answered every single one of them without making me feel rushed or dismissed. She was knowledgeable, genuinely warm, and even pointed me toward resources and services that could help with pet travel, things I wouldn't have thought to ask about on my own. It says a lot about a practice when the team makes you feel this taken care of before you've ever walked through the door. Can't wait to finally come in. Highly recommend just giving them a call , you'll see what I mean!

My dog was overdue for her vaccinations and everyone was so welcoming and great with my dog. I was afraid that she would growl or bark due to seeing new people, but my dog was friendly with everyone. Great animal hospital, great pricing, and great staff all around. The cutest thing was when going up to the door, they gave a sign with your pets name welcoming you and the funny parking sign. LOVED IT!

I have been going here since 2009, and even through ownership changes things seemed fine. Unfortunately, my cat became terminally ill a few months back. When I asked them if they could support her through palliative care, they said "absolutely, of course we can." After that, it became incredibly difficult to get a call back. They only received 2 weeks worth of medication at a time, and didn't return voicemails asking for refills. One time, after leaving 3 voicemails, I started calling the office, and every time I got the voicemail, I hung up and called back. On the 4th try, someone finally answered. And even then, I was told they had to wait for the doctor the approve it, and that took another day. There was no sense of urgency unless I called and issued them very hard. It's upsetting to see the quality of care decline so quickly after so many years.

First visit here was great. The staff were extra nice and cared to understand what I wanted. The Veterinarian, Dr Henderson was kind, efficient, and offered information that was helpful for caring for my dogs. She treated my dog who today feels better!

The staff at College Animal Hospital was incredibly patient and kind to my overly anxious and dramatic dog. Most places I’ve taken him, they skip the check up (lymph, heart, etc) because he’s very sensitive, reactive, and fearful of exams. I’ve always been embarrassed and anxious during visits, but was so comfortable with the team here. They walked me through their process and the entire visit with empathy and kindness. Normally, I feel embarrassed to ask for more than what’s required due to my dog’s fear but didn’t feel that here at all. I’m so grateful for how my dog and I were treated by everyone and could not recommend CAH more. They also told me what to look out for after bringing him home (post sedation) in great detail, which made the whole post-visit process seamless. Thank you so so much for taking care of Finn!

Compassionate, professional. College Animal hospital has been providing excellent care for our cats and dog since we moved to SD over 3 years ago.
