Best vet in the area! Had a very positive first visit with my little lady. Every staff member I interacted with from scheduling to the appointment was so friendly and accommodating. I brought my 12-year-old cat in for an exam as she’s been having some minor issues, and even though they were understaffed that day, Dr. Walter and his tech gave a lot of their time to my cat, asking questions and discussing the possible issues that she could be having, as well as our options for the future. Not just a quick 2-minute visit that feels rushed like I’ve experienced at many other clinics. I felt like they really cared about her here, and I’m very happy to have gone to Hickory Creek! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Dr. Elizabeth is by the far the best veterinary experience we’ve had! She is compassionate, knowledgeable, & always friendly. Most importantly, she cares about your animal just as much as you do.

Our family has been been seeing Dr. Elizabeth for over 15 years and she always gives her time, attention, & care at every visit. My current dog is anxious and nervous but by the end of our appointment was accepting treats right from Dr. Elizabeth - all after we had managed her vaccinations and blood draw!

Dr. Elizabeth and her staff are patient and always focused on what’s best for your animal and makes your animal most comfortable. I cannot recommend them more! Thank you!!!

Today my pup underwent extensive surgery. I wouldnt trust anyone but Dr Wally and his team to touch my dog. They gave him love and he is home recuperating and doing well. They love our pets like they are their own!

I've been taking my family pets here since I was a little girl and now travel 45 minutes to take both of my cats and dog here. Dr. Elizabeth and Dr. Walter are so knowledgeable and always willing to go the extra mile-making you feel like family. Cannot say enough positive things about them. Absolutely recommend!

Hickory Creek Animal Hospital is amazing. I recently had moved to the area, and shortly after my dogs health started to decline rapidly. I was frantic trying to find a vet that could help, and I hit the jackpot with Dr. Elizabeth. Firstly, the front desk staff was so kind. They listened as I tried to explain my situation, and were determined to work with me to get an appointment. They called multiple times (even though I hadn’t even been there yet) to check on the status of my dog. When I did get into the appointment, Dr. Elizabeth and the vet tech staff were so patient and helpful with my dog and I. You could tell they truly care about your pet. Unfortunately, I had to euthanize my dog of 16 years, and even though it was so hard, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to do it. They took their time and explained the whole process, gave me the time I needed with her, and even brought her a “last meal” of whip cream and cheese. It was a very peaceful experience because of the time Dr. Elizabeth and her staff took with us. When I get another dog, I will be for sure bringing them to this vet office. I am so grateful I found them during such a difficult time.

Dr. Liz and Dr. Walter are Amazing! I appreciate the care and time they put in to know both pet and owner. Your pets well being is in good hands with this staff.
