FAQs about Choosing a Vet
At Plaza Veterinary Hospital, we understand the desire to carefully choose a vet for the furry members of your family. It is no different than taking care when choosing a pediatrician, dentist, family doctor, or surgeon. You feel a responsibility to get your pet the best medical care possible. We thought we would share a few questions that you should ask when choosing a vet, along with our answers so you can feel confident that we are the best choice for a vet in the Burlington, North Carolina area.
What words are commonly used to describe the services and care your offer?
We don’t just assume we are doing a good job. We ask our customers how they feel about the level of service we provide as their vet. Some of the words they’ve used to describe us are compassionate, caring, super-helpful, friendly, gentle, honest, knowledgeable, and professional.
Can I get appointments that fit my schedule?
We offer evening and Saturday appointments because we know that most employers won’t give you time off to keep a vet appointment like they would for a human medical appointment. In addition, it isn’t uncommon to arrive home at the end of the day and realize your pet isn’t feeling well.
Can you handle a wide variety of vet services?
Some veterinary clinics limit what they’ll do for dogs and cats. We offer a wide range of services, including preventative health checkups, pet teeth cleaning and other pet dental care, medical care, spaying and neutering, pet vaccinations and parasite prevention, boarding, and grooming.
At Plaza Veterinary Hospital, our vet serves patients from Burlington, Graham, Mebane, Glen Raven, Elon, and Haw River, North Carolina.

Everyone is always kind to our animals and friendly with me. It's obvious that staff works extra hard to give everyone attention without making them feel rushed. The veterinarian and medical staff seem to be knowledgeable yet willing to learn something new from their pet owners

Absolutely amazing. My dog needed emergency surgery and every other vet wouldn’t see us for less than $130 and they did the surgery and everything included for around $1000/$1,500 and the diagnosis fee was put towards the bill. Anywhere else would’ve charged $3,000-$6000. 10/10 recommend. They are the nicest people, the best prices and you can tell it’s not just a job to them! Highly recommended!!

I took my 11 year old furbaby Ozzie Irwin there last week for the first time! He’s having issues with his eyes! The staff at the front desk were kind, courteous and professional! The veterinarian, Dr. Jordan, was kind and efficient! She told me what to do, she gave me all the medications Ozzie needed to get better and she was informative and caring! The Vet Assistants were also kind, professional and courteous! Thank you Plaza Veterinarian Hospital!

I can’t say they did everything they were supposed to( have to assume they did) but the one thing that I could clearly see, was how good of a job they did, trimming my dog’s nails. I had been to pet smart ( may be pet supermarket) anyway, I could never tell her nails were trimmed, so I quit taking her altogether. They kept telling me, you should bring her more, then eventually her nails will be better. Idk what kind of a fool I looked like, but from where I come from, when you do a terrible job, I don’t want to get more of a terrible job, that can get costly. Anyway, I am impressed how good her nails look, she will be a much happier dog.

I was on my way home from Virginia to North Carolina and had an emergency with my dog...I ran in here hysterical and crying...the man behind the desk...I wish I remembered his name...because he was amazing...just immediately jumped up and ran to my car for my dog. Took her inside and started working on her. The Veterinarian was amazing too. Very calm, overly helpful and patient with me. If I lived closer...this would be my vet of choice! Thank you all so very much!!!

We started taking our pets to Plaza after moving to the area two years ago and have always experienced compassionate care. The vet techs are helpful and kind. Both vets we have seen have gone above and beyond to explain care options for our animals. The admin staff have been very patient when helping to coordinate multiple prescriptions for our elderly pup.

This place is nothing short of amazingggg!! I just got my puppy not long ago and I was freaking out about something I thought was a big deal (was but was normal) and I called them they helped me get in and out as quick as possible. Going back in a couple weeks for her second shot and I would recommend this place to anyone. They are extremely nice and will take great care of your babies . I promise you won’t regret going here ! 💕

After my vet closed down last year I had to search out a vet that offered grooming services for cats. I called around and spoke to the people at Plaza Veterinary Hospital about bringing my long haired cat in for a grooming appointment. They were very accommodating and friendly. I made the appointment and took my cat in. They were finished and called me to pick her up in just a couple of hours unlike previous groomers who kept her there until 4 before I could pick her up. She came back to me in good spirits and looking beautiful.The price of the service was very reasonable and the drop off and pickup went smoothly.From here on out this will be the vet I take all my animals to.

I brought my 10 week old puppy to Plaza and they took him right in, it was an emergency due to a vaccine reaction. Our regular vet had closed and I was panicking. The staff there was phenomenal. Dr. Basher was so patient and very caring explaining everything after the visit!! I would recommend Plaza 110%!!!

I love Plaza Veterinary Hospital! Both doctors are highly knowledgeable, skilled, and costantly learning new techniques, yet they are also very compassionate, understanding and real. Dr Wicker performed a dental procedure with extractions on my dog and did a beautiful job . The bill was so reasonable and communication is very open. My dog is not easy to deal with, he was a rescue and very needy, scared, and snappy. They love him anyway!

We just had our puppy who is a Coton de Tulear groomed with Melissa and could not be happier with the haircut she gave him. I had been concerned because not a lot of groomers are familiar with Cotons but she did an outstanding job and will definitely recommend her to anyone that wants a good groomer. Thanks again Melissa so happy.

Recently(yesterday) we had to make one of the hardest decisions a pet owner has to make by putting our precious Lucy down. She was a 12 y/o Maltese full of joy and so so much love. She became sick 6 weeks ago with an unconfirmed diagnosis. We tried many rounds of antibiotics and steroids to no avail 😢 Dr Thomas and her exceptional staff were so incredible during this difficult time. My Lucy was not afraid to go to this office ever. If I could rate this vet higher than a 5, I would. What they did for us and our precious girl is priceless. We will never forget the compassion you showed us❤️

I have three pets and feared I could not financially care for them all. My previous vet in town was very expensive, and the care was inferior compared to Plaza Veterinary. For example, one of my cats is difficult to work with and my previous vet sometimes was unable to examine her. At Plaza Veterinary this was not an issue. The vets and vet techs also answered in depth all my questions about dental procedures, and my cat breezed through extractions. I thank my lucky starts I changed vets. I could not be more pleased!

My appointment was at 4:30 and my dog was in the door by 4:31. There was a follow up call the next day to see how my dog was doing and to see if I had any questions. Would absolutely recommend!!

My seven pack is new to Plaza Vet Hospital, and so far I have felt very welcomed, and have been very pleased with the attention, friendliness, professionalism, with every visit. I feel everyone listens to my concerns, answers every question, and even my most fearful girl seemed to actually enjoy being there!! They even helped me with one of my feral cats, who had major skin issues, and loss of hair. Dr. Thomas treated him for flea bite allergies, and completely cured him!! I am very pleased, and highly recommend them.

We needed emergency care for my big fur baby. They were able to squeeze us in same day. They are so kind and patient with animals. I was impressed that the wait wasn't any longer since they had to work us in. Everyone from who answered the phone, the assistant that handled him and the doctor are all very kind and gentle. Will definitely be my Veterinary of choice from now on.

I called because my dog could not walk and I could not find a same day appointment-my local veterinarian passed away last year. The staff told me they would fit me in, told me to bring my baby in immediately, and then proceeded to recommend trying medication and rest before any big procedures-we would treat her in steps. Having worked in a Vet hospital, I was impressed with all aspects of this clinic-from the moment I first talked to someone, to the kind and compassionate care they gave to both myself and my pet. I have already referred my neighbor 🙂

Dr. Wicker and the staff at Plaza vet are wonderful people! My cat, Theon, has had dental issues the last couple years. We have a regular vet in Greensboro that we use for vaccines and wellness visits. Unfortunately, their prices for having teeth extracted was just something that we could not afford. Theon desperately needed multiple teeth pulled that were causes issues and my mom recommended Plaza, which is her regular vet. They offered a very simple dental procedure to help Theon get back to his normal self! I am very grateful that they were willing to see and take care of him. I have not been able to meet Dr. Wicker in person but she is very kind and amazing vet!

I would highly recommend this vet. I've taken my rescue dog and now two rescue kittens to them. The staff is very respectful anyone I've ever worked with treats me with the upmost respect and are extremely helpful in making sure you understand what's going on with your animal. If you're looking for an affordable vet that goes above and beyond then I definitely recommend going here. You wont regret it.

I had to have my baby girl Belle put to sleep today. She has been in Plazas care for a small amount of time. They did everything they could with great compassion. It was hard letting my baby go, but they made the process as peaceful as they could. She didn't suffer and passed peacefully. I highly recommend this place. Belle was an old girl. It was time to let her run pain-free.

We took our fur baby to get dental work done. She needed a few of her teeth removed because of lack of care. The Vet and the staff were EXCEPTIONAL with their professional conduct during her surgery! This Veterinarian is THE BEST that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She was so thoughtful when giving Bella her meds! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR CARE AND YOUR PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT DURING HER SURGERY! This is my FOREVER VET!! My wife and I love the care they give our babies!

I (my dog) was not a current patient but was pretty sick. They fit me in a very short time. They diagnosed her, gave me suggestions of what we should do to treat her and got my permission to treat her. They got everything all together for her. They explained, in detail, how to give her the medications she was going home on and what to expect the next several days. I couldn’t have been more pleased with our care. I honestly can’t think of anything they could have done differently to make our visit better. It was perfect! Thank you so much. You really eased my worries.

I had never been to Plaza Vet before but they made room to see my sick kitty late on a Friday and again the next morning. So thankful for the care they gave him and for saving me the huge emergency vet bill! And then they called to check on him to make sure he was doing better. They will definitely be my primary vet moving forward.

Words can not express my gratitude to Dr Thomas and her staff!!! My sweet little 17 year old girl became ill around 2:30am last Saturday and our vet of around 10 years refused to see her and said to bring her back and leave her on Monday!!!!! I was so upset and when I called Plaza Vet they were so kind and agreed to see her! Turns out she was treated and had I waited she would have been really ill ! I am happy to say because of the quick and accurate treatment my girl is so much better!!!Needless to say my girl has a new Vet and I HIGHLY recommend Plaza Veterinary!!!

My dog is a new patient here, and we have been twice within the past ten days....once for a wellness checkup and the second for an emergency.

My fur babies have went to Plaza every since I was a child. As an adult I have a 13 year old and 7 yr old baby that are patients as well as boarding clients. One will not find a more pleasant and caring group of people. When I take them in I know they will receive the highest quality of care and compassion. The staff absolutely love what they do and it shows with the way they handle my "children." I trust my fur faces are in a loving environment in their care. Never once have I left the facility unsatisfied. Dr. Thomas and Dr. Wicker are kind, compassionate, highly skilled, extremely knowledgeable with an amazing "bedside manner". Melissa is an amazing groomer. The front desk staff are excellent, with Bonnie being extraordinary.

15:37 12 Apr 21
Dr. Wicker and her staff are a dream to work with! Since you can't go in with your fur baby, Plaza has a friendly employee come out to the car to get your pup and to ask if there are any questions or concerns. Before Mullen was taken in for his appointment I was told what they would be doing with him today and was asked if he could have a treat or peanut butter. After Mullen's appointment was over he was brought back to the car while we waited for a call from Dr. Wicker. She talked with me about Mullen's appointment and answered a few more of my questions. So glad that we made the decision to establish care at Plaza Veterinary Hospital. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
