Ballston Animal Hospital is Awesome Excellent!! I've been taking my dog to BAH for several years now and give Dr. Collins my highest recommendation. Recently my dog had surgery and Dr. Collins was excellent at explaining the procedure, possible outcome, and he even called me over the weekend to check up on my pet. He is knowledgeable, professional and really cares about his patients. Also, I love the new office decor! Thanks to BAH for taking great care of Cookie!

IT'S BACK I have been taking my pets to this hospital for over 22 years. A few years ago, it seemed to change management and the quality took a nosedive. However, it is "back".. the care is very, very good, the staff pleasant and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere is pleasant. No trouble scheduling appointments, even with specific veterinarians if you have a favorite. Beware, they are expensive .. but the quality of care is great, and, best of all, your pets don't come home with fleas they didn't have when they arrived. You c... read more

Definitely take your pets here! I've checked out many of the local animal hospitals, and the care and consideration I received at the Ballston Animal Hospital is unmatched! The vets are so friendly and helpful, and I've never met such knowledgeable assistants. I think that their lobby area needs some music piped in to complete the effect, but I hear they have that "in the works". If you're looking for reasonable prices and great pet care give 'em a call!

DON"T TAKE YOUR PETS HERE! Ballston Animal Hospital is not a place for your pet! If you can schedule your pets illness, than this place is ok. However, if your pet suddenly becomes ill, they will never, I mean NEVER fit you in! This has happened now to me twice! What kind of vet doesn't take sick pets? Also, once I stopped taking my pet to Ballston Animal Hospital I now know they charge 3X as much as other vets. BEWARE OF THIS PLACE, DON'T TAKE YOUR PETS HERE! PROS: CONS: 3x as much as other vets....will not fit your sick pe... read more

Not good for an emergency I had taken my dog to Ballston Animal hospital for years and was always satisfied with the care. A few months ago my dog became ill suddenly and I called them for an emergency. I begged because I live right right down the block -- they said no no no no there were no more appointmentst that day, even though I called at 11am. I was very clear that this was critical. I finally found another VET to take my dog in. The vet worked valiently but because of the time delay in trying to find another vet, my d... read more

Was Reprimanded by the Receptionist First it was very difficult to actually get an appointment. When I showed up this morning with my sick dog I was 5 minutes late. After I filled out the page of paperwork I was told that I would have to reschedule because they didn't have enough time to see us. I was the only one in the waiting area. They offered to have me come in at a later time in the day, but eventually rescheduled for Monday. If my dog was really sick these 5 days in between could be very detrimental. The receptionist ... read more

Un-proffessionial management and staff They will persuade you to run all type of bloodwork and other tests on your animals, then refer you to emergency care, when they should have in the first place. Not one of their veterinary technicians is licscenced and management is constantly changing to someone with less experience, who does not treat all employees the same. They constantly are changing staff and will terminate an employee at the drop of a hat. In the past they have terminated employees because of medical reasons and ... read more

very happy I've taken my dog to Ballston Animal Hospital for a few years and am very pleased with the care that the staff have given my pet. I have noticed a change in staff at the front desk but it seems to me like the new people hired on are knowledgeable about pet care and really excel at customer service. They have also made some improvements to the exterior and interior of the clinic and the place looks great.

chinaca We love Dr. Gretchen Tripp. I found the staff there professional and helpful. Our sweet cat, Annie had to go in for a dental. Dr. Tripp was gentle with her and called us back right after the work was done. She also called us to follow up on Annie. The technicians were very caring and thorough. We will definitely stick with BAH.
