When it comes to an emergency, don't bother. I drove out to Duluth for an evaluation due to a high fever. Duluth Dr. emailed the Bay Area & me the results with a recommendation to follow up within a day or two. I called, and the staff said they are understaffed and won't take her if she needs to be seen to take her back out there! Receptionist "She just started antibiotics, and it would be pointless." I explained what the Duluth Dr said, and she never discussed it with Dr. Haukus. It was brushed off like it didn't matter. I called again and was told to take her elsewhere. So I did and had much better service. I've been going to BAAH for 4 years & was just there not even 3 months ago for a wellness with both my dogs. (I brought my newly adopted dog in to establish & get vaccines. Haukus seemed disgusted that he wasn't fixed. I told him I just got him a couple of weeks ago and planned in it in the upcoming months. He came off as irritated & said you need to do it now.)I'm now 2 ER visits in & my dog ended up going back to the ER now for the 3rd time. This time at PAWS just outside of wausau. This facility was amazing!!! They got my dog in to a specialist the next day to get her CT done. Dr. McDaniel at Madison vetenary specialist has been there every step of the way. She reached out to Dr Haukus and explained that my dog needed to continue her medications and asked him to fill them so I wouldn't have to drive the 5 hours to Madison. He said that he wouldn't and his staff didn't call me!! Dr McDaniel called me directly and explained the conversation & another option. Like WOW, my dog was treated on 4 different occasions, and all the paperwork was sent to him, and he still said NO. He didn't have to do anything but collect more of my money. The staff is rude and the Dr doesn't give a s**t about your pet. I'm over this place. He is only nice when it comes to wellness visits $$$$$.

We adopted a 9 year old English Setter from an out of town animal shelter. We brought Rhemi home only to realize she had breast cancer and was probably the reason she was brought to the shelter in the first place. We had a consult with the veterinarian recommended by the shelter and they told us to just 'bring her home and give her a good-end-of-life'. We were very disappointed and brought her to Dr. Eric Haukaas. He performed surgery, removed 2 malignant breast tumors, and Rhemi has been great ever since! That was 3 1/2 years ago...

Called there for an emergency this morning to get my dog who had a gash over a foot long. I was told they wouldn’t be able to help til this afternoon since they were booked on appointments! Lost my business, I’ll never be there again! Ashland area veterinary clinic took him in immediately, and got him taken care of. I recommend them to anyone who wants a real vet for something other than a simple shot!

Bay Area Animal Hospital is a top quality vet in the Ashland/U.P. of Michigan area. Well worth the 35 minute drive from MI. for the service. I highly recommend Dr. Erik Haukaas and his staff. They take great care of our Devon Rex cats. Our kittens are well taken care of there and our oldest cat(16 years old) has been receiving top quality senior care. From kittens to seniors, they are the best.

Dr Haukaas is the best!!! Over the last 22 years, Daisy is our third dog that Dr. Haukaas has cared for, he has consistently shown compassion, kindness and most importantly, he keeps updated with the latest medical information. A couple days ago, our one year old cavalier, Daisy May was very sick. Unfortunately, it was after hours when we called. True to his nature, he called back soon afterwards to have a discussion regarding her condition and gave us some advice to help her through the night. The next morning his nurse called to check on her but, unfortunately, she was not getting better, so he suggested some medication, and to call again the next day. Unfortunately, Daisy was still not getting better, but again, Dr.Haukaas was great, he got us in right away. Daisy saw him and wagged her tail…she loves him❤️. He ran some tests, patiently answered ALL our questions and we left. True to his expertise, Daisy had her “ skip, back in her step “ the next day. Yes, it will take a week for a full recovery, but, there were no unnecessary tests or costs. Daisy loves Dr. Haukaas and we are extremely grateful for his care.

I've always had a great experience with Dr. Haukus at BAAH. I like the way he explains any problems my dogs are having and his practical approach to veterinary care.
