Review:

Always great staff and efficient, reasonable medical care and pricing.
Small Vets are not regulated and this place will inflate prices.
Brought my kitten Simeon here for some shots and a wellness check.

Comment/Review

C.M. Animal Hospital of Worthington have been my pet's vets for over a decade. I have never had a negative experience in all that time. Dr. Zablackas and Dr. Mugge are absolutely wonderful doctors with their knowledge, professionalism and kindness, as well as the rest of the staff, it's always a blessing to get to see them. Thank you all for your care in keeping our furry family members in the best of health. It's always a pleasure.

A.C. So far, so good. My pup has a torn ACL and will need surgery (lateral suture, not TPLO but they do both). I travelled 2 hours because of the great reviews and reasonable cost. The vet tech I spoke with was very informative. We really enjoyed meeting Dr Larry Hill - he and his staff were very personable, and my pup seemed fine during the drawer test. He took the time to show me what was wrong and how it diferred from her other leg. They also were willing to make use of my dogs recent blood testsand x-rays which helped further with costs (Not all vets seem willing to do this). They were able to see us quickly for the consult and schedule the surgery just a couple of weeks later, which is great. Will update after our surgery date on December 12th 2022. Update 4/9/23 Chloe is doing great. She's once again able to go for walks, run, wrestle, go up stairs and even jump with no issues. So glad we found Dr Hill and team to do the surgery. This has made a huge difference to her quality of life, 100% worth it! Also, I shopped around (including our of state) and the price I paid was very reasonable.

J.T. Our experience with AHOW was lovely! My dog is reactive to other dogs and the staff was very intentional about making sure the coast was clear before entering and leaving the office. The vet tech and Doctor were both super considerate and spent time with me to answer any questions I had, even though it was a busy day for them. I would recommend this veterinary practice!

L.K. You will pay a little more here, but it’s totally worth it for the level of care and convenience they provide. i care greatly about my cat’s health so i want to make sure i’m paying the people who also care just as deeply about keeping her healthy. they offer pet insurance which has definitely benefitted me. the front desk staff is super knowledgeable and you can call them at any time with questions. if something off is happening with your pet, you can email them photos and they’ll respond within a few hours. dr. elzein is our absolute favorite, so request her if you can! she is not only a living angel, but so kind and patient with all animals and their owners. she also loves chocolate so if you are super grateful like i was… bring that woman some chocolate.

P.Y. The BEST animal hospital around. Everyone here offers exceptional customer service and care for your animal. Any concerns or issues with your animal is treated with urgency and there are no dumb questions. Every level of the organization, front desk, technicians and doctors, AMAZING team.

C.C. Dr. Jodie Valentino is outstanding. Compassionate, methodical, and super skilled, Dr. Valentino treats her furry patients with kindness. She explains medical problems and treatments so pet owners understand and feel confident in her care.

J.S. Molly did a fantastic job grooming our doodle. You can tell she really has a true love for animals by the care she gave our guy. He’s 9 years old and has difficulty standing for grooming. She was patient with him and his haircut was the best he has ever had in 9 years of grooming. So glad we were recommended to her.

O.D. The vet was great. The staff was very nice to my new rescue as well. The doctor explained everything in detail and I know my pup is in good hands. The floor was super clean!
