I have been with Nickerson since I can remember. I have had Dr. Merlee for the past 12 years or so. He is the most compassionate vet that I know. He takes his time and will go over all your concerns with your pet. The whole staff is awesome and friendly.

Nickerson Animal Health Center does an excellent job addressing the needs of my puppy and provides great care! Dr. Keith Merle is an outstanding veterinarian, and his staff is extremely kind and helpful. I have been taking my dogs to Nickerson Animal Health Center for more than 25 years. I highly recommend them!

They are kind, caring, thorough. They give you all the facts and options and allow you to make your best choices. I would highly recommend to anyone and everyone. I wish I had gone to them earlier on. Other places we received good care, I had no complaints. Here its been excellent. 

Business response:

Thank you for your kind words, Bob-linda! Please give extra love to your pet from us.

Took my dog in for what started as kennel cough that transitioned to low grade pneumonia. Not common in a young, vaccinated dog, but can happen. Dr. Merhle & the rest of the staff were wonderful. Even though they are extremely busy, they were able to squeeze us in a few times over the course of a few weeks since he wasn't responding to treatment like he should. Everyone on staff was friendly, compassionate, and helpful! 

Business response:

Thank you for your kind compliments, Jennifer! We love visits from you and your family and appreciate you trusting us with your pet's care.

The medical staff are very thorough with her and very kind. They have helped her to overcome being afraid of the office. Always answer all my questions. I never feel rushed. 

Business response:

We love hearing that your pet enjoys their visits with us as much as we enjoy seeing you all. See you next time!

There are multiple vets so appointments are easy to get. During this Covid-19 time they are not allowing more than one person with the pet inside. They should remind people of this because my spouse had to wait in the car during the appointment. The staff and vets are great. Good 'bedside' manner.

Dr. Merle is so compassionate. It’s not fake nice, it’s not over the top, it’s a genuine love for your pet. He’s a great communicator, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. May he never retire.
