Safety & Comfort Is Important to Us

We have years of experience helping pets of all sizes, ages, breeds, and temperaments feel safe and comfortable while in our care. Our aim is to project a calm environment from the moment we welcome you and your adorable pet into our animal hospital. We have a caring bedside manner and approach each pet with soft voices and a gentle touch to keep them assured they’re in the confident hands of friends. Our trusted pet hospital wishes to become your reliable partner in pet healthcare, acting as a familiar face to keep your furry loved ones healthy for years to come.

“Dr. Preston has been my vet with two pets now. His loving kindness and genuine empathy shown when my Peanut passed was something I will always be grateful for, and how they took such good care of him in his senior years. Now we have a new yorkie pup, the strong and mighty Samson, with a funny tummy and they’ve fixed him right up too. Southern Hills is top notch. Every staff member has been attentive and kind. I love them.”

Meeting Your Needs at All Levels

We work hard to cover every aspect of your pet’s health and well-being by first running a thorough wellness exam. Our veterinarians will check your pet from head to tail, running annual bloodwork and fecal testing for added detail. We firmly believe in the importance of a proactive approach to pet healthcare rather than a reactive one. Our team can provide regular wellness and preventive care visits so we can best determine their current health status and discuss the next phases of their growth.

A detailed health history is a powerful tool for keeping your cats and dogs healthy for the foreseeable future. We will create a comprehensive medical record for your pet that we can reference in the future and provide a copy for you to take home. Our compassionate veterinary team understands that you’re a caring pet parent, and we wish to inform you about everything you need to know so you can make informed decisions on behalf of your pet.
