Day Hollow Animal Hospital PC

I had followed Dr. Bocek from a previous practice and so glad I did. Everyone over there is always so warm and inviting and they treat my pets with such exceptional care and love. Will continue to use for future pet care!

Well, a month ago, my husband and I had an emergency. Our 16 and a half year-old cat couldn't keep his head up anymore. We feared the worst, and we were right. It was Chubby's time to go. Day Hollow Animal Hospital was the only place that had room in their schedule and in their hearts to take care of the whole thing. They got him in immediately. They ran all the blood work, check his vitals; Dr. Bocek and the team did everything they could, even giving us the option of having blood transfusions for our cat. But we knew better. This was an unfortunate decision we had to make. My husband was the one that took him in while I was at work. He called me with the bad news, and I left work immediately. Day Hollow Animal Hospital waited for me to get there. They took me back to their specially prepared room for Chubby's last moments. The atmosphere of the room was comforting as it could be with soft colored walls and inspirational paintings about the rainbow bridge. We got to hold him in our arms a few moments more. They left us alone to do that and told us to press the button when we were ready. When it was Chubby's time to go, my husband got to hold him in his arms as he was put to sleep and sent over that rainbow bridge. The sweetest, best possible ending for our beloved cat. The staff was considerate and comforting all throughout the process. We even chosen to have Chubby's paw print mold taken and his ashes were given to use in a beautifully carved wooden box with a certificate. The hospital even sent us a thoughtful bereavement card a couple weeks later. Even though that has been our only experience with them, I'd recommend them to anybody. If they can help you and your beloved pet handle those final moments with grace, they can do anything. And mark my words: when my husband and I get our next cat or two, we'll be bringing them here, from start to finish. It's going to be a while, but we'll be back.

I am so thankful for the care my cat received while he was struggling to breathe. When I walked through the door, I was immediately greeted by a veterinary technician who took my cat into the treatment area to assess his breathing and place him on oxygen. As an urgent care appointment, I expected to wait for my cat to be seen, but they were able to address him and make him more comfortable very quickly. Dr. Bocek and her staff are compassionate and hardworking and I trust them with my pets completely.

Took my Golden Retriever here about a month ago, it went well. Although it was extremely expensive.They were very nice and helpful at the time. Went back today to pick up a prescription and waiting in their lobby for 20 minutes before anyone acknowledged me, even though staff were walking back and forth. The lady that helped me was not very nice and was actually rude. I was able to order the exact flea medication for my dog that they gave me a month ago through Chewy. The lady said they don’t back this because they get theirs from the manufacturer. Well I was able to purchase a 3month supply from Chewy for a little over what they charged for one month of the same med. Cassidy was possibly her name? Will not be returning here, save your money and yourself some aggravation. Do not recommend. Will be returning to Athens animal hospital.

I will forever be grateful to the Day Hollow Animal Hospital for seeing my cat in two hours from the time I called for an appointment until they saw her. Her regular vet wouldn’t see her for three weeks or, as they suggested, if she couldn’t wait, I could take her to Cornell. She was observed, diagnosed, and treated with great care and kindness. She is now on the road to recovery, thank goodness, and thank you again Dr. Bosek and your wonderful staff.
