Report
Very pleased with our visit to Holliday Veterinary Hospital yesterday. We met their new vet Dr. Daniel Minardi and what a thorough and professional job he did with our dog. Not only did he address our concern with his ears but also took it upon himself to look at a variety of other ailments the dog had experienced lately. He is an old dog and Dr. Minardi says it's good to check all the things that could be going on with him. We were extremely happy with the visit and of course will return again. We have been coming to Holliday vet for many years and are always impressed with their quality of service

Not reliable, not professional - our last call with them was today as we took our dog to another vet and needed his records. Holliday said that they all charge similar fees and we should stick to one vet, they do not care about our dog, he has very bad skin issues and the entire experience with Holliday has been horrible. We have done more for our dog by researching online, changing food, sending in allergy tests to third party labs than Holliday has been able

Thankfully and kindly Holliday clinic agreed to take her immediately (even though they were closing within an hour). They stayed open past their closing time to ensure we could have x-rays performed on her and to give us some time to spend with her before we said goodbye. Obviously its
