Veterinarians in La Crosse

“Yesterday, we had to say goodbye to our beloved cocker spaniel. Dr. Kindermann came in on her day off to help support us and spent ample time with us, giving us all possible treatment plans along with the pricing and probability that our pup would return to normal. She was so patient with us. Lucy's prognosis was very grim and treatment would mean prolonged suffering and a trip to Madison that was still likely to result in saying goodbye to her. When we made the decision to euthanize, we didn't want to do it right away. We wanted to give our children time to say goodbye and give our sweet girl some last cuddles and memories, so we took her home for a few hours. Because of her, we were able to spend her last day feeding her cheeseburgers, rubbing her belly, and saying goodbye. When she started to show signs of distress, Dr Kindermann was ready and we were able to take away her pain and have her go in our arms peacefully. I am so, so grateful to have found this doctor and will never take my "kids" (as she calls them!) elsewhere. She even had the foresight to make a clay imprint of her paw and name for us as a keepsake. That seems like a little thing, but it means so much to me to have this little memorial. Thank you, Dr. Kindermann. You have a very, very difficult job, but I can not imagine anyone more compassionate and kind. I am so glad that the best dog had the best vet.“

“Took our little Luna the hedgehog to Hillside after getting her as a rescue. She hadn’t had the best experience with people, but I wanted her to have a checkup to ensure everything was okay. They were amazing. Took their time to make sure Luna was as comfortable as she could be while also making sure she was healthy. Definitely would recommend them ?“

“Dr. Harper was amazing. She helped us through a situation with our puppy swallowing too much of a bone. We called the emergency veterinarian and she answered, we couldn’t be more thankful. Helicopter parents to our puppy. Thank you Dr. Harper!“

“Thankful for Dr. Mitzelfeldt and Rochelle for coming in after hours to help my Teeny boy. Thank you also to Haven and all other staff who took care of him during his 2 night stay.“

“Hillside is a wonderful place to work with. We had literally just moved to the area and our pet got into some cleaning products. We didnt know any vets in the area but needed an emergency appt late one night. Not only were they able to accommodate us, they worked within our budget, and provided the best possible care for our pet. Our pet truly wouldnt have made it without the help of their staff and I highly recommend them.“

“The only place in the LaCrosse area that will see my rabbits. Rabbit vet is very knowledgeable and trustworthy.“
