"I have had the pleasure of knowing Dr. Hodges for the past 5 years. He has cared for both my equine and canine companions. His kindness, knowledge and real life results on my animals has impressed me greatly. My animals are more comfortable after a session with him. I look forward to a long relationship with him. He is a great Vet and I am the lucky one to have found him after trying others before him with marginal results. Thank you for caring Dr. Hodges! "

"First home visit with Dr. Hodges. Our dog Gia had an Acupuncture treatment. I would recommend Dr. Hodges based on our phone conversation and our appointment. He is soft spoken and great with animals. He was extra patient as I rambled on about what we have done in regard to feeding and medications. He is very thorough and spent over an hour taking notes and making suggestions. He is very responsive and returns phone messages quickly. I am happy to have found someone in the area that can give care to my pet."
