  Very friendly staff and veterinarian. Prices for their services are very reasonable to me. Took great care of my dog from his puppy days to his final minutes with me. The nurses were very comforting and supportive during his euthanasia. I really recommend this vet.

  When our vet was closed down because of Covid and our sweet little dog had to have emergency surgery I was devastated and heartbroken, because I had not had any prior experience with this office, vet or technicians. They kept us up-to-date, well informed, and they did the most amazing job with her dog before, during and after her Surgery! I could wholeheartedly recommend this veterinarian and office to any and everyone. We are so incredibly indebted and grateful for all these precious people and our dog is here today because of their great care!

  My family and I have taken ALL of our pets here for over 16 years. The staff is amazing, always friendly and helpful. They will treat your pets like they are their own and will do whatever it takes to get your pet healthy. Dr. Gross has always provided exceptional care and is gentle, kind, and explains things very clearly. Can't say enough good things about Mars Hill!

  Compassionate care and prices that don't frighten me. 😄 I can tell they love the animals here and even MY dog isn't afraid when I have to bring him to the doc. I'm definitely a customer for life.

  This vet office is amazing! We acquired a 2 week old kitten & for the price of $71.00 got the kitten a complete physical, deworming shot & a whole of advise & reference materials. I have used these folks since we moved to Oconee. They have been with us in good times & not such good times. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT & HELP!
