I’ve had such a wonderful experience with Village Veterinary for my cat, Boo. The staff is so kind, attentive, and friendly. Dr. Wilcox is extremely knowledgeable and thorough and Shelly, the practice manager, always remembers you and your pet by name and creates such a welcoming environment. After several not so great experiences with vets in the area I’ll absolutely be bringing all of my pets here.

Dr. Wilcox has been a true blessing to all of her clients! She is so kind and clearly cares about the animals. The manager Shelley is wonderful! They were able to get me in the next day when my dog was having a reoccurring ear infection. All the staff treated us like they really loved what they do and we appreciate it!!!

From my first experience of calling in to the office to being met by the staff as I walked in I was impressed! I was following Dr. Wilcox from her previous location. My dog, Porterhouse loves her and it was clear when he saw Dr. Wilcox enter the examination room how happy he was. The room felt very different from most vet offices - loved the toys. Porterhouse was at ease. Huge for a terrier. The examination while Porter was on my lap and being able to have a test for Pancreatitis with results while we waited was exceptional! Congratulations to Dr. Wilcox and her top shelf team assembled. THANK YOU! Photo below after we got home - healthy and happy !!

Our pup fractured his leg in the morning and they were sooo helpful! They took care of him all day and made sure he was comfortable. He is healing now! They even gave him the cutest cast.
