Meet Dr. Cooley Schedule your Visit Because showing up ready means showing up fully. Veterinary care that sees the full picture—from the start.

Most vet visits start with a rush of questions, missing records, and not enough time. We’re changing that. At Bonded Hearts, your visit starts before you arrive. We listen to your concerns, review your pet’s history, and come into the room ready. So instead of scrambling, you’ll feel heard. Instead of wondering what’s next, you’ll know what to expect. And instead of feeling like just another client, you’ll feel confident you made the right call. When we prepare early, everything gets easier.

Care that’s thoughtful, flexible, and built around your pet.

From preventive medicine to advanced pain management, we offer a wide range of services—delivered with the time, clarity, and attention they deserve. Whether your pet needs a wellness exam, diagnostic testing, or long-term support, we’ll help you make informed decisions and move forward with confidence.

You shouldn’t have to worry about being judged at the vet. Not for what your pet eats. Not for what you can afford. Not for asking something that feels awkward or obvious. We built Bonded Hearts to be a place where questions are welcome, plans are flexible, and care feels like a partnership—not a transaction. Care That Meets You Where You Are We pay close attention to the things your pet can’t say. A limp. A change in mood. A shift in how they move or sleep. With tools like acupuncture, PEMF, laser therapy, and more, we treat pain early—so your pet can stay comfortable, active, and connected to the life you share.

Because that’s what matters: a life that feels good, and a care team that helps make it possible.

We’re not part of a corporate chain—and we don’t practice like one. Bonded Hearts is proud to be a locally owned, Black woman-led veterinary clinic serving Bessemer, McCalla, Hoover, and the greater Birmingham area. We built our practice around a simple belief: that every pet deserves great care, and every person deserves to feel welcome in getting it.

Here, you’ll find thoughtful, judgment-free support for every stage of your pet’s life—from routine wellness visits and spay/neuter surgeries to advanced pain management and chronic condition support. We know real life can be complicated. Our job is to meet you there with clear communication, flexible options, and a plan that actually works.

Built for real people, real pets, and everything life throws at you. Independent. Inclusive. Invested in you.
