My 13 yo DNR dog saw Dr. Couch (Gina, Michelle) today to get a benign superficial sebaceous adenoma on his muzzle removed. They were incredible and took care of him there & then. It was a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!

I'm so grateful we found Dr. Dana Shackleton. I just love her. She has helped me with my two beloved dogs. Even supporting me in measures beyond her comfort zone to continue the life of my precious Majid. Then, when he passed naturally and beautifully, she generously offered me genuine compassionate condolences and space to talk about it all. She always is generous with her time.

She is completely respectful of my desire to know and to make the best decisions for our lives. Then she supports me with that decision. Her medical treatment, from exam to...read full review

Dr. Joanna Holtz and Dr. Dana Shackelton are AMAZING! We take our goldendoodle, Bodie, here after so many great recommendations from others. We live in Saint Helena and drive all the way to Middletown because of the fantastic service and care that our doodle gets. They handle our dog with such care and are very communicative with me as his mom. Further, he was neutered at the facility and he gets his heartworm and flea/tick medicine there. They are always on top of appointments and the staff has been great with the Covid protocols. I appreciate them being careful and continuing to be careful for the health of their patients, and their loved ones. I highly, highly recommend Middletown Animal Hospital! Best vet we've ever had and we've had 7 dogs in our lives -- mostly older rescues. They always take exceptional care!
