Hillsboro Animal Hospital

I have brought my beloved pets here for 25 years--yearly checkups, random sickness, surgery, and helping two dear spirits over the rainbow bridge. From the front desk to the techs and vets this team of people are so on their game. And huge thank you to Dr. Hendrix, my vet for 20 plus years and to my now current vet, Dr. Given. I have trusted them completely with my pets' lives. They have been and are truly extraordinary in their knowledge, their thoroughness, their compassion, and their care.

I have been a patient at this clinic for the last few years and every doctor/tech/staff member at Hillsboro Animal Hospital have been the most helpful, kind, and patient with both of my animals. I had to make the decision a year ago to put one my animals down and they made me feel as comfortable as possible while going through that tough time. This year my other dog has been a frequent flyer with multiple things going on and every doctor/tech I have seen has helped me so much. They answer every question I have and go out of their way to make sure my dog is feeling better!

Was so grateful to discover that Hillsboro Animal Hospital serves the smallest critters and was appreciative of the care we were able to receive for my daughter's sick gerbil. Dr Given was knowledgeable about the gerbil and took time with us. He took the case seriously, even though just a little gerbil, and interacted very kindly with my 12 year old daughter about her pet. The Vet Tech was excellent as well. We are already established at another vet for our dog but given our great experience at Hillsboro Animal Hospital, have considered making a switch!

“I took my beloved soulmate cat, Leonard, to Dr. Madeline Williams on September 21st, seeking help for what seemed like a manageable issue. Unfortunately, Dr. Williams misdiagnosed him and prescribed antibiotics without informing me of the life-threatening risks they posed. Following this treatment, Leonard’s condition worsened. Later, with the help of a specialist and a thorough review of all reports, I learned that Leonard actually had a heart murmur, a condition that could have been managed with proper care. Instead, he was given a heavy dose of 100 ml of Plasmalyte with B complex, despite not having eaten, which placed intense strain on his heart. The excessive dose and lack of prior heart evaluation made Leonard’s system unable to handle the treatment, leading to his passing with in 23 hours and 13 minutes. Losing Leonard this way has been devastating. Pet owners deserve clear communication about the risks of treatment and a thorough examination to avoid preventable outcomes. I hope this review encourages greater caution and transparency for future patients.” Writing this review could be a way to share Leonard’s story and perhaps bring awareness to improve care for others.

I have been bringing my dogs to Hillsboro Animal Hospital since 2013. The entire staff is knowledgeable, responsive, helpful and kind. Chad Given has been my primary doctor for the 3 dogs I have had and I can't speak highly enough about the care he has given them. I have also seen several other Hillsboro vets over the years in timely circumstances and they have all been fantastic. I will continue to trust them with the care of my pets as long as I live in Nashville.
