I can not recommend Dr. Gillespie and her staff enough! I spent 2 days calling vets to see my very ill cat, when google finally recommended BV animal hospital. The second one of the vet tech’s answered the phone I was met with kindness and a same day appointment. My cat is very sick and they all treated her with so much kindness, full itemized cost transparency before resuming treatment, & spent so long answering my questions even being so close to closing time. I’m hopeful my senior cat will make a full recovery and feel so relieved knowing she has a team of compassionate people to care for her if we need further treatment. Thank you so much!

Caring helpful vet. My doggy loves it. Where I have a problem is with transparency in pricing. I'm feeling a little taken advantage of when I can not receive a quote over the phone for different services. It feels like, and I could be wrong, I'm absorbing the cost of their move.

After my 4 year old hound dog, Boone, had an apparent eye injury, I needed to find a new local vet. I had recently moved to the area, and they got me in same day. The staff were all very sweet to him, and professionally direct with me that he would need to have it removed. We scheduled the surgery (which went well), and created a recovery plan. They called many times checking in on him as he recovered. Unfortunately, his recovery didn’t go as planned. About a month after the surgery, he began to lose motor control in his back legs. He lost roughly 15 pounds in a week, and the swelling around his eye was getting worse and unusually firm. I called back, and again they got me in quickly. After some non-invasive tests, it became apparent that he was most likely fighting cancer in his brain. Dr. Gillespie and the staff were very compassionate, but also direct, about the options. Given his rapid deterioration, lack of appetite, and dramatic weight loss, I decided it was in his best interest to end his suffering humanely. Though I know this is unfortunately a common procedure for them, their compassion for him and for me was very obvious. The next day, they called me with an update that they had investigated some bleeding we noticed from his mouth. It turns out that he had a large mass at the back of his mouth that all but confirmed the presence of cancer. Though I felt confident that I had done the right thing for Boone, it was very comforting to have it confirmed. This was not something I expected them to do, but it was very appreciated. Though the circumstances were difficult, it was a trustworthy and comforting experience working with the staff.

Bella Vista Animal Hospital is fantastic. Their staff is extremely nice and helpful. They are so kind to my animals. Dr. Gillespie takes the time to explain what the treatment is for my animal. They care and it shows! Thanks.

Had to go there due to an emergency and they got us in immediately and took such good care of my bebe and treated her with great love and compassion. They've called to follow-up on her and have been great. They communicated with me every step of the way. We just moved to Bella Vista and are so happy to have found a wonderful vet .

Had a wonderful experience here during a heartbreaking time. Adopted a sweet puppy who ended up having a life ending birth defect. When symptoms began to ruin his quality of life, we had to make the decision to end his suffering. Dr. meet us on her day off to help put him to rest. Never been there before. She was kind and compassionate and went above and beyond for our sweet little guy. Sent a sweet card after. 10 out of 10 for all she did to help our sweet Chance.
