Testimonials about Deerfield Vet
Our references say more about us than we could say about ourselves - thank you for the confidence in Deerfield Vet Hospital.
I have been a client at Deerfield Pet Hospital since the first month they were in practice. Our animals are a huge part of our lives and they always get great care at Deerfield. I have dealt with all three of the Vets in their office and they, along with their staff, are all caring, honest and professional in their dealings with us and our 'kids'.
I have referred many other pet owners to them over the years. I am a professional dog trainer and would not recommend Deerfield to my clients if I did not think they were the best!
Valeri Wright, Paws Express Dog Training
My family has been a client of Deerfield Veterinary Hospital for more than fourteen years. Ned Caldwell and his staff have taken care of four dogs for us during that period. We have always been extremely pleased with the level of their services and care. Also, the compassion shown when we made the difficult decision to "put down" one of our pets was very comforting. I highly recommend Deerfield Veterinary Hospital to anyone looking for a competent, friendly place for their veterinary services.

Frank and Ella love Deerfield! The doctors and staff of Deerfield clearly care about the animals - they are warm and friendly to us every time we're in. They take the time to explain everything about our pets and we never feel rushed. They are truly are our other family doctor!
Colleen & Steve
Deerfield Vet has Star Delivery. Sometimes it takes all three veterinarians to view Buddy's eye problems and make a diagnosis. (a chronic condition that comes and goes) The doctors are very good about working together and consulting each other. We are so glad Buddy has such kind and caring vets. They keep excellent records and have such loving personnel. Everyone keeps our dog on track; heart pills, flea medicine, Science Diet, Lean Treats, nail clipping and buzzing. Plus a little lovin'! Buddy is truly Deerfield Vet's Buddy.
Dr. Lynn and Betty Carlton
The Deerfield Veterinarians are devoted not only to the physical well-being of pets, but also to their mental and emotional development. Behavior problems are the most common causes of rehoming a dog. Many of my dogs have benefited from puppy play days at Deerfield. I know how carefully the pups are watched. All of the staff members make the utmost effort to get puppies off to a great start with proper socialization and confidence. Gambler smiles for the camera.
Carolyn Krause
Our dogs, Katherin and Morgan, have been going to Deerfield Veterinary Hospital since they were puppies, and now they are 6 years old! The doctors and staff at Deerfield have watched our puppies grow and have always been caring and supportive. Our boxer is deaf and epileptic, but his medical treatment has never been a source of stress. With the friendly environment, both dogs always get excited about visiting the vet.
Rebekah & Jesse Teller

As the parent of two notoriously vet-shy kitties, Chanel and Delilah. I am always grateful for the care and attention shown to my girls by the doctors and staff at Deerfield Veterinary Hospital. Everyone knows them (and me) by name when we walk in the door, and the love and care given is beyond compare. As the “parent” of a senior cat, I realize that sometimes the problems of aging pets can be complicated, and I am always reassured by the fine attention she receives at Deerfield. I can’t imagine taking my babies anywhere else!
Jeffrey Lawson
We consider Deerfield as part of our extended family. Jack has been a patient since he was 5 weeks old and it is comforting to know that he is well taken care of by the entire staff.
Julie Otto
It's hard to write just a few good words about Dr. Caldwell and his terrific staff as we have been pretty involved with Deerfield for years.
Our rescue great dane, Jewel, came to us with over 100 stitches where she had been seriously injured and treated by Ned and his devoted staff. Then 2 years ago, Jewel came down with cancer and once again it was Deerfield to the rescue. After surgery and radiation she has bounced back to her "old" self and enjoys a healthy life, not to mention lazy winter naps. Our sincere thanks to everyone at Deerfield!
