I've been taking my 3 dogs to this vet for 4 years, since moving to the area. Recently, my eldest dog was nearing that time and I requested a call from a vet to discuss end of life care. No one bothered to call, despite my asking two times. They clearly do not care about their patients if there is no way to bill them.

Dr Anthony and staff are absolutely like family. My little one has recently left one vet to this one, due to a move, and I see why everyone loves this place. Dr. Anthony treated her as if she were his own little puppy. Dr. Anthony did not talk too high level for me and was honest and caring. It was a breath of fresh air. Also, Zoe was very friendly and caring towards us and mimi. My son and his wife have been seeing Dr. Anthony for many years - and now I know why they never want to leave. Thank you for caring, thank you for loving, thank you for being about the animals and not about the dollar. - Kay Shoemaker

Dr. Anthony and staff have been a godsend to my dog who has multiple health issues. This is the first time in 4 years my dog has thrived and his health issues have been stabilized. I highly recommend them and I am so thankful for all that they have done for my dog D.J. Aside from their expertise, the facility is spotless and so clean.

Dr. Anthony is amazing. I honestly feel if it wasn't for him we would not have had gunny as long as we did. I always refer people to them. I can not express how much they have meant to us over the years. Even when a pet passed they were there. Amazing people. More then just doctors and techs.

I'd like to give a big shoutout to Dr. Anthony, Amy, and the entire team at Hockessin Animal Hospital for taking care of Hooch through the years. I honestly couldn't have asked for better care. Also knowing this team was in my corner at each turn of his life, put my mind at ease. You can see the dedication everyone here has to making sure your companion is comfortable. Thank you!-Alex & Hooch

Our cat has had bad breath for the last few weeks which can indicate a problem with a tooth. Concerned, I called and scheduled an appointment with Dr. Janet Mitchell at the Hockessin Animal Hospital for the next day at 5:20. When we arrived for her appointment, the staff person didn't know anything about it and said Dr. Mitchell was too busy to see her today and sent us away but offered to reschedule (really?). So now as I write this review, our cat is home hiding traumatized. I realize cats can be especially stressed when they get a ride to the vet. They do get over it but this poor cat has been put through this for no reason. We’ll now have to continue to pay for someone else’s incompetence since we’ll have to go through this again when we take her to a different vet. This first impression gets two thumbs down!

I'm new to the area and have a pretty nervous dog so choosing a vet is very important to me. Dr. Mitchell and the vet tech Brooke made me feel so at ease and gave my dog very thoughtful care. They never made me feel rushed even though I was the last appointment of the day and stayed a little past closing. I'm looking forward to bringing my dog in for future care from this team.

Great care and professionalism, but the prices are quite high relative to other clinics and hospitals in the area. I would recommend seeing a different vet if you don't need any sort of care besides basic shots and checkups.

We adopted Kayla, a chihuahua terrier, nearly six years ago from the SPCA. And, we've always taken her to Hockessin Animal Hospital for boarding to healthcare. Earlier this year, we made the difficult decision to put her to sleep because of significant health issues and challenges she was facing. It was the first time, I had to make such a difficult decision. However, Dr. Anthony and his team were so kind and gracious and made the process a bit more bearable. We also have two huge German Shepherds. Most people are scare of them but Dr. Anthony is always so patient and kind. I know there are cheaper practices but there is no substitute for the level of professionalism and care we receive from Hockessin Animal Hospital.

Wonderful experience with the vet, who spent so much time with my dog and asked a million questions. Staff were supportive and kind. I feel like my old girl is in good hands!!3+ years later: I now have 4 dogs and have since lost my old girl. I literally would not go anywhere else. The service, kindness, attentiveness and care are 2nd to none. Dr Mitchell is first rate and has a heart as big as her skill set. The entire staff are amazing. Every one of them is calm, competent and confident, warm and caring in the most professional way. It's very comforting, especially in times of crisis, to have this team. You can trust your pets here.

Dr. Mitchell at Hockessin saved our cat Annie's life. Annie's fifteen and frail and had become gravely ill, but we of course didn't know what was wrong. Dr. Mitchell spent nearly an hour with me on the phone late on a summer Friday afternoon to develop a treatment plan that minimized stress to Annie and maximized her chance of recovery. Emergency treatment, following Dr. Mitchell's orders, was handled at Windcrest that Friday night. Dr. Mitchell checked on Annie via text all weekend - even though she was away for the weekend. Annie lived and is thriving!This fall our young cat, Gus, had to go in for his rabies shot but he's a big cat and it was impossible for me to get him into his cat carrier. Shania was such a big help - she came out to the car with me and we got Gus safely into his carrier. She carried him in (and later carried him out) always with the biggest smile on her face. Great experience.Love Hockessin Animal Hospital and all of the staff members.
