Hilltop Animal Hosp Palatine, Illinois

Brought my new puppy here. Great friendly staff. New Doctors. New Owner. Doctor was so friendly and knowledgeable. So happy I found them.

Very good place, staff is friendly, they are remodeling an still taken on clients. Very clean place.

Covid forced me to find a new vet . Needless to say, I am glad I moved to Dr Hinkle's practice. He's a wonderful vet -- kind, compassionate, plain-speaking. Takes the time to really talk to me and to give my dog the attention he deserves. Best decision I ever made was to switch to this practice .

Dr. Hinkle and staff have been the most personable veterinarian staff I have ever dealt with. Their expertise and attention to detail has always been professional. Recently put my pup down (a sad day) and they made me feel so comfortable. Like family. Thank you for the great years of service and I will be back ????

I have been w Hilltop for many years and many pets. I will go no where else!

Doc Hinkle is a very compassionate veterinarian who has a very practical no nonsense approach to caring for animals. He doesn't not run unnecessary tests and procedures, so I always feel comfortable with my dogs in his care.

They took good care of my dog

2 of our dogs have died there.

We spayed our cat after bad experience with lake island hospital and I want to say thank you for amazing doctor and nice staff. Our cat was very calm and not stressed at all, everything was done in the professional way, I happy to find this vet clinic.

Dr. Hinkle is amazing. Can't say enough. We are new with him but I could immediately see he cares genuinely for his patients.

Great vet! Full of helpful information for our pets' health.

We were very glad to find hilltop that allowed us to be with our Molly in her last moments. But the doctor really needs to learn when to stop talking. I really don't want nor need to hear about every dog you've ever put down while I'm trying to spend my dogs last moments with her. Let me grieve in peace.

The best vet we’ve been to. Dr. Hinkle is kind, caring, honest, proactive and understanding of pet and owner needs. ????????????????

Hands down. Dr Hinkle is the most down to earth,down to earth, honest vet I’ve ever experienced. A true animal lover. I can’t say enough about this place. You would be smart to bring your pets here.

The staff is very gentle with our pets. They take good care ❤️.

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Hinkle and his awesome support staff! He's seen our 2 border collies for over 10 years now and has seen them thru many issues. One has had to have 'doggo knee surgery' and have a large fatty lump removed. The surgeries were well done and have made my dog a happier soul. Dr. Hinkle is very reasonably priced also. Check around! Some vets take advantage of us that treat our fur babies as family. Sometimes charging 4x more for procedures. Thank you ❤️ Hilltop!

Very positive experience. Dr. Hinckle is old school. Was very imformative and very pleasant. Staff was very nice.

Dr Hinkle is a compassionate, understanding, and knowledgeable person. I have been using Dr Hinkle for over 40 years and recommend him to everyone I know.

The Hinkle's are the best! So knowledgeable & informative. If you want your fur baby in good hands, best schedule your next appointment at Hilltop!

We love Dr. Hinkle! He's great with his patients and their owners and is truly an animal lover.

This very is a true animal lover, spends quality time with owners

They have always been there and given the best treatment for my pup. Trustworthy. Friendly. The best.

My family and I have been going to Dr. Hinkle and the Hilltop Animal Hospital since 1986. Dr. Hinkle and his staff have always done a FANTASTIC job taking care of our many dogs and cats for over 3 decades. Dr. Hinkle is an outstanding vet-always informative and compasionate. Dr. Hinkle and his staff deserve more than a 5 star rating for us!!

We've been taking it cats here for years. They are always welcoming, always willing to spend the time we need, always thoughtful. This last visit was very difficult as we said goodbye to our cat of 18 years, but they made it as easy as possible given the circumstances. And the doctor followed up with a card in the mail a few days later. Thanks Doc!

I sadly tried to really want to love this place but I spent a lot of money using doctor hinkle. He is very expensive first off. I had a flea problem with my cats I brought them in since I had no idea how to handle the problem. He told me don’t worry if theirs fleas on them they aren’t in the house they host on them and gave me frontline and sent me on my way assuring me the problem should be solved! Well it wasn’t it was only just becoming. I called them every morning I was finding fleas everywhere and my cats were suffering scratching getting bit. Finally after three weeks of misery I took them somewhere else! I explained what happened here and they told me no vet sends you home without a flea bath that day they should’ve advise you to clean and be aware it’s now in your home. They told afterwards when I would call everyday to clean. They should’ve offered revolution since frontline doesn’t work! And possibly and exterminator! After spending about $700-$800 on new doctors flea baths exterminators I will never go here! And now my cats are fine they were stuck in misery for so long because this hospital kept saying frontline is working it takes time. One dose of revolution and within hours the fleas were dying! I saw active fleas for a whole month from frontline. This doctor could’ve really harmed my animals and he really hurt my wallet WILL NEVER RECOMMEND HIM super upset by this whole office and lack of care

If you’re looking to find out what’s wrong with your pet upon the first visit this is on the place for you also if you’re looking for procedure done for your animals there are things like payment plans and care credit that they will not tell you because they do not except it at this location I was told that because they do not except it they will not tell us even if the case is Dyer because it does not benefit them.

Dr Hinkle is the best.

Doc does amazing work, shoots straight and has saved my animals lives on more than one occasion. I'll be going here as long as it's doors are open!

We've brought two generations of dogs to "Uncle Raymond" at Hilltop and would not go anywhere else. My daughter brings her dog in from the city because it's the only place she trusts. Doc has so much experience, he knows what's wrong and what's best to do.

Dr. Hinckle is a wonderful veterinarian. He is very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. He takes the time to talk with us and educate us about our different pets. He handles a variety of species including birds, exotics like sugar gliders and of course more common household pets like dogs. He is very good (as you would expect) in handling animals and our pets are very comfortable with him. Dr. Hinckle has been very helpful in explaining pet care best practices and has shown us books where we could learn more about our pets. His office is very clean (as you would want) and well organized. His staff is kind and fees are reasonable. We have brought two different pets to Dr. Hinckle and will continue doing so.
