MidCity Veterinary Hospital

My name is Camden and I am a 13yo golden retriever. My mommy and daddy brought me here last week. We had to leave our house and my big back yard in Florida after that mean Hurricane Helene lady flooded our house so now we live at our apartment in New Orleans while mommy and daddy fix our house. I normally go to a really nice doctor at home, but when I started coughing a lot and mommy felt a big lump in my throat they brought me to Mid City. It was right after that day with all the parades and loud noises, I don't like them very much but, I digress. When mommy brought me in, the doctor was so nice and gave me lots of scratches behind my ear. . . I do like that. She started to tell mommy some things and even though I didn't know what she was saying mommy was crying so I knew it wasn't good. They stuck some needles in me, I definitely didn't like that, but I'm a boy so I didn't let them know that it hurt. But after that mommy took me home and I got a pup cup, they're really yummy. I got a call but daddy took the call because I don't understand much more than "want a biscuit," and it was the nice doctor. She told him about my test results. . . I studied hard for those tests so I was hoping for good grades. Unfortunately, I have something really bad but the doctor made daddy feel good and told him exactly what to do. I noticed that the phone rang a lot over the next couple of days and it was the wonderful people who gave me lots of pets and scratches behind the ear. They were calling to see how I was doing but also to see how mommy and daddy were doing. I think I was doing better than them. Daddy took me to another place because I have cancer and I need to have treatments so I can keep living a fun golden retriever life, plus I can't let my brother be alone without me. . .I mean who would he play with. While I was getting my treatment, daddy said that they called again. Here is where they almost made daddy cry again. They were calling to tell him that one of the tests they had ordered still hadn't come in and that the new place where I was getting my treatment was running a better test that made their test irrelevant and because the lab hadn't run it yet, they cancelled it and wanted to refund daddy a lot of money. I know mommy and daddy had told them that because we lost our house and are rebuilding it that we are not in a great financial situation right now and this gesture made daddy so happy and it made me happy too because I have a doggie sense of when people are good or bad and this just confirmed that I knew these people were good. Mommy and Daddy are going to take my brother, Calvin, there this week to get his "tires kicked" (I don't know why daddy says that but he says it every time we go to the doctor) and I heard him tell mommy that he really likes and trusts Mid City Vet. I'm looking forward to seeing them again too. They give great ear scratches!

I can’t thank Dr. Hess enough for saving my cat’s life. He was suffering from a serious urinary blockage and needed PU surgery. She took the time to explain everything to me, answered all my questions, and reassured me that she would try her best. My cat is back to his old self, happy and playful, thanks to Dr. Hess's surgery. I can’t even begin to describe the relief of seeing him healthy again after everything he went through. She and her team took amazing care of him, not just during the procedure but throughout his recovery. I cannot recommend Dr. Hess enough. She gave my cat a second chance at life, and I’ll always be grateful.

Mid-city vet is a really friendly place with excellent staff and doctors. The groomer is also excellent!

I came in irrationally terrified for my Poppy’s life and left totally calm and assured that with simple routine care she’ll be totally fine. Thanks so much Eleanor, Katie, Kylie and Dr. Stephens for taking such great care of my fur babies and just being super helpful and friendly. Really appreciate you guys!

I can't say enough good things about Dr Hess, Hugo, and all of the kind folks at this vet clinic. They have gone above and beyond to make sure that both of my dogs are treated thoroughly and properly. I highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for Quality Care for their animals. I've never been to another clinic that treated my pets better. 5 out of 5 stars all day. Update... it has been at least a year since I left my review and my opinion has not changed. I would give them 10 Stars if I could. Dr Hess and Hugo are some of the most generous human beings on earth. I owe them a great deal of gratitude for working with me and keeping my beloved 14-year-old dachshund alive. I've been to so many vet clinics where I feel like they were going through the motions and don't really care. I don't get that vibe from these folks at all. From David and Katie at the desk to everyone in the back. I make it a point not to call someone or something the best because that usually jinxes it, but these folks are top-notch and you should definitely feel safe and confident bringing your fur babies here.
