"Genuinely caring staff that go above and beyond. My dog went missing and the person who found her called James River Animal Hospital attempting to get her records stating I gave her to them. The person who answered the call followed her gut and called me to verify rather than just hand over my dog's information. Thanks to their caution and quick thinking I was able to get my dog back."

Bird g018dbe790 1920

★★★★★

"An excellent vet service and staff!! I struggled with my cockatiel being sick for over a year taking her to another vet and finally got referred to James River through a family friend. Best thing ever!! Dr. Hardy never gave up on my little bird and he did everything he could think of for her and she's now better than ever!! The atmosphere and general manners of everyone who works there is superb. The best vets I've come across."

Cat g3d4a6e927 1920

★★★★★

"I appreciated the care and concern given to my dear kitty Satine by Dr Hardy and his staff. She was diagnosed with cancer and although the prognosis was not good, he was able to help extend her life almost a month longer than expected. Dr. Hardy is knowledgeable and an excellent listener. I have taken my pets to James River Animal Hospital for almost 30 years and would highly recommend Dr. Hardy for any pet care needs you might have."
