I'm so glad that I found this Animal Clinic to look after my handsome boy (Cooper - Yellow Lab). My daughter's friend recommended them and I'm so grateful they did. Cooper recently had extensive surgery (lump removals) - they were very kind, professional, explained everything (even though due to stress, I likely wasn't listening 100%)! Dr. Audrey and Dr. Carolyn are super kind, experienced & very knowledgeable Vets. I would highly recommend this clinic - even if you feel it's a little longer drive from your home - trust me it's worth it. Convenient (free) parking right outside the clinic - can

Guildwood Village Animal Clinic has provided excellent care to all of our pets for many many years. I receive good suggestions on how best to care for my pets. The veterinarians and staff there, genuinely care for the animals. During times when my pet was not well, they explained each diagnosis and told me my options. They also helped me to extend the life of my cat Buddy. Thank Guildwood Village Clinic for the care you provide.

My dog has been a patient at the clinic for over 11 years. The vet and her team provide excellent service. With any medical team it is important you have a relationship that is built on trust and this team demonstrates that based on how they have worked with me and my pet.

We have always been extremely satisfied with the care provided at this clinic. Their prices are average for the area. Dr. Woodward has certainly earned our trust.

I like to think of this place as the car mechanics that are in it for the money. You go in for an oil change and walk out with a new engine. I never thought mere socializing would turn up as an "examination and consultation fee" of $65.00. Well played Guildwood Village Animal Clinic, well played. They seem very knowledgeable, but if you're not willing to pay an arm and a leg for a simple check up, then better to go somewhere else.
