We are truly honored and deeply humbled to have been voted the 2026 Best of Hopkins County by the readers of the Sulphur Springs News-Telegram. Receiving the awards for Best Veterinary Clinic & Hospital and the Best Veterinarian is an incredible honor, and we are sincerely grateful for your confidence, your trust, and your continued support. For 41 years, it has been our privilege to care for the pets of Hopkins County. Along the way, we have been blessed to build lifelong relationships with generations of families. Your pets have never been “just patients” to us – they are cherished members of your family, and over the years, you have become part of ours. This recognition is especially meaningful because it comes from the community we love and have been honored to serve for more than four decades. Thank you for trusting us through joyful new beginnings, unexpected emergencies, and life’s most difficult goodbyes. We never take that trust for granted. We are also incredibly grateful for our compassionate and dedicated team. Their love for animals, commitment to excellence, and genuine care for every client and every patient are the heart of Broadway Veterinary Hospital. Every person who walks through our doors is welcome with kindness, and every pet is cared for as if they were our own. Your trust has been one of the greatest blessings of our lives. Thank you for allowing us to care for the animals you love and for making Broadway Veterinary Hospital a part of your family for the past 41 years. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your loyalty, your friendship, and the confidence you have placed in us. It is an honor we will never take for granted, and we look forward to serving you and your beloved pets for many years to come. With heartfelt gratitude, Dr. David E. Black and the Broadway Veterinary Hospital Team

Rhoades Family Practice I would like to take this opportunity first and foremost to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, without him, none of this would even be possible, he blessed me with a sense of purpose, a skill set, and a vision to care for this wonderful community. I would also like to thank everyone for allowing me and my staff to care for them and trusting us with your healthcare needs. Without you, none of this is possible. God bless.
