I had to take my mom’s cat to Dove Lewis last night. The receptionist was warm and thoughtful during a very stressful time. The triage nurse came out quickly, and you could tell was making an effort to my cat the care it needed asap. I really appreciated her. While checking in, another person brought it a dog that had been abandoned. Blind and deaf, missing 2 eyes. The person said they saw the owners drop the dog at the park and drive away. I truly can’t imagine how much the employees here go through on a daily basis. I hope people can show them grace and patience because they are consistently dealing with horrible situations. Dr. Lo was our doctor. She was so kind and so patient. She took the time to get my mom on the phone and walk her through everything going on after she had already done so with me. They made the tough call to euthanize our cat but Dr. Lo was supportive and thoughtful and I truly just can’t say enough about the service we received at Dove Lewis. Even though the outcome was not what we hoped- the experience could not have been better for what it was. Thank you Dove Lewis Team!

Recently our puppy swallowed a sock, after googling what to do we dashed off to Dove Lewis. From the check-in staff, to the technical and veterinarian we couldn’t have asked for better service. We felt completely confident in their advice and choices they gave us. Within an hour we were going home with a happy healthy puppy. Luckily his condition was relatively easy compared to many but our pups emergency was dealt with quickly and skillfully. I highly recommend DoveLewis and thank them all immensely for the professional and compassionate service they provided.

I went here for the first time over the weekend because my rabbit became suddenly ill. It was a saturday, so it wasn't too busy when I arrived but became very busy shortly after. She was triaged pretty quickly and brought in the back. I spent 7.5 hours there, and I was irritated when I left because they said she was ready for discharge, but I waited over an hour for them to bring her out to me so I could leave. HOWEVER, the staff was very nice, professional, and honest. A couple of days later, she took a turn for the worst, and I returned. This time, it was a Monday, and there really weren't any patients there. She was immediately taken in the back, and so was I. Unfortunately, my bunny passed shortly after. The staff was incredibly kind and compassionate, and I am thankful for that. I would take my pet there again. And I do recommend this hospital for your fur baby.

All I want to say is we took our lovely 11 year old boy into an urgent care appointment knowing he was NOT okay but not knowing what to do. We didn't wait long at all to get him back to be checked, blood was drawn right away and within an hour we were getting detailed, honest feedback about the potential issue and next steps. The news was not good, but I really appreciated the vet's approach; direct yet empathetic, detailed, willing to provide options with costs and also recommendations. I never felt like we were being sold something unnecessary and also felt we were given the knowledge needed to make a decision about next steps. We'll miss Milo so much but we're appreciative for the support DoveLewis provided to be able to make the right decision.

My Yorkie started having these behaviors that were concerning me she was bobbing her head and doing these repetitive motions that I've never seen her do before and I wasn't sure whether she was poisoned or what was going on. It was late at night but I decided to take her to Dove Lewis to make sure that it wasn't something serious. When I got there the waiting room was full and I thought oh man I'm going to be here very long time before I see anyone, but as soon as I walked in the door the staff attended to me right away, they gave me the paperwork and they walked me through everything. I no sooner got the paperwork finished when a triage nurse came out and took my Yorkie in right away. I was in the emergency room all night but you know it didn't really feel like it, I was made comfortable and staff was available anytime I had a question. Also the atmosphere in the waiting room was very pleasant, comfortable and there was coffee available for free. I am so glad that I brought my Yorkie to Dove Lewis that night. The staff at Dove Lewis are The A-Team and if your loving pet gets ill or has an emergency I recommend you go to Dove Lewis for the best care for your pet by a group of people that truly love animals.

The staff at Dove Lewis is beyond incredible! I had to rush our guinea pig to see them last week. They took him right back and gave him pain meds and made him very comfortable. I unfortunately had to make a tough decision. Everyone was so kind, caring and compassionate through the entire process. I was never rushed and they let me spend all the time I needed with Gus. I will forever be grateful for their support and comfort they provide for Gus and myself. Thank you to everyone who helped us.
