Hope Animal Hospital

My Finn had terrible skin. We found he has multiple allergies and was suffering. He was miserable, we were too. Helpless was how we felt. Dr Ahmad took great care of our boy. He tested him and we are now armed with knowledge so we can manage his exposure to allergens and Finn is one happy boy. Thanks so much to the staff at Hope Animal Hospital!

For pet owners, one of the concerns when moving is finding care for your furbaby. I’ve only been bringing our pup here for a few months, but they’ve been great. When your little one isn’t well, the Dr explains what they know and don’t, as well as what the options are. We feel good about the care she’s getting.

Great, but expensive. Was in the area from out of town and had an urgent issue with a dog's paw. Went to another place first and I wasn't impressed and the dog needed to be looked at again a few days later. The doctor here was terrific - he performed the exam with me present, which was helpful and enabled us to better discuss things. Doctor was very thorough and was NOT rushed. Doctor was also very knowledgeable (the other place didn't seem to know what I was talking about, among other issues). I would absolutely come back and also recommend Hope Animal Hospital. The only downside was it was a bit pricey. Note: for established patients they also do walk-in vaccinations on Sundays from 1-3pm (no appointment).

Amazing staff, amazing vet. 100% trustworthy and caring. Dr. Ahmad is one of the most committed and caring vets out there. Despite being constantly swamped with patients, he has always gone above and beyond for my cats. When Jasper had a heart related emergency at 15 years old, Dr. Ahmads diagnosis and treatment saved Jasper. Having a medical background myself, I must say his bedside manner is incredible. He's happy to explain, and clearly does his best to make sure the patient he is currently dealing with feels that they are the most important thing on his mind. The staff that backs Dr. Ahmad is equally as exceptional. Knowledgeable, professional, and kind, they deal with people who are stressed, sad, scared, angry, and frustrated. Sometimes, these people are less than kind, and take out their stress on the staff. I personally have watched them handle situations like this very professionally and with candor regardless of the misguided animosity they receive. They honestly go above and beyond and are a group of real people doing their best. If you need someone to trust with your furry family members, Hope Animal Hospital is the right place for you.

Dr. Ahmad is absolutely amazing! He has been our vet for 8 years. He is kind, patient and compassionate. He not only handles all his regular appointments but also takes in emergencies throughout the day, as I can attest to. Recently our dog was attacked by a deer and the hoof tore her leg up pretty bad. Dr. Ahmad and his staff got her in right away and had to do some minor surgery to fix her leg. She was very lucky to have Dr. Ahmad, she was bleeding and in horrible pain, an infection was already setting in and there was muscle damage but he fixed her up in the middle of an already busy day! I am so appreciative of him and the staff there! Everyone is so kind and accommodating. I will forever be grateful for him and his office and you would be lucky to have him as a Veterinarian. Love River and her family
