Iowa Veterinary Wellness Center

We recently had our dog Nellie in for an ovary-sparing spay, and I’m so thankful we were referred to this team. From the beginning, they were incredibly communicative and helpful in getting her scheduled quickly. They clearly know what they’re doing — the surgery went even faster than we expected, and Nellie’s incision looks great. She’s healing beautifully, and we’re just really grateful for their care and expertise. Highly recommend!

Our dog is reactive and the staff who were there were very respectful of not only the dogs, but our boundaries. They did exactly as we asked and made it a super good experience. Our dog was calm the whole time, even laying down and wagging his tail at some points, signifying he was comfortable. We have never experienced a vet appointment go this well! I was very pleased with the service. I will definitely be continuing my pups care here.

I brought my 3 working dogs in for exams, vaccines and health issue checks. My first 2 are great with everyone and the staff did great with listening to my concerns and answering all my questions. Eris and D liked the attention as well even if they got a poke. My other dog I was expecting lots of reactions and a pretty stressful visit as they usually are with previous vets. She was tail wagging walking in with minimal growling. Staff did great about ignoring her and following my direction when reading her body language. She was muzzled for everyone’s safety but took minimal effort to vet hold her for a blood draw which is unheard of for her. She took treats before and after her visit and was tail wagging walking out. It was probably the best vet experience she’s ever had and I can’t imagine taking her anywhere else after having such a positive experience here. We love IVWC and recommend to everyone!

Great care and concern from start to finish! It is nerve-wracking leaving your 17-year-old dog to go under general anesthesia for a dental procedure. They reassured me and kept me up to date on progress. My baby was in good hands!

Dr. Wilke is always so patient and loving with my Cavalier King Charles, Bodhi. She has cared for him for 4 years now; since his very first appointment as a puppy. The other staff of the clinic are friendly, warm, welcoming and incredibly knowledgeable! They take the time and truly listen whenever we're there about a physical or behavioral change . Dr. Wilke is patient and loving in her handling of Bodhi. She takes her time, is completely hands on with him and will even get down on the floor with him if she needs to. She is always able to get to the root cause of the issue without tons of unnecessary and expensive tests. Dr. Wilke provides us natural and holistic treatment plans while minimizing costs and limiting pharmaceuticals. After 4 years, she hasnt missed the mark yet! Dr. Wilke is truly a gifted healer! Prompt appointment start times, never a long wait. The clinic is relaxing, clean, organized and well managed. I just cant say enough positive things about Dr. Wilke and her team at the IA Veterinary Wellness Center. Bodhi and I would never even THINK of going anywhere else. Top Notch service! Extraordinary and gifted Veterinarian! Thank You Dr. Wilke and Team!

I’m glad to have found a great vet. Everyone we’ve worked with there from the front desk to the vets has been compassionate, knowledgeable, and generous with their time and attention. We never feel rushed or taken advantage of and they all genuinely love their pet patients!

This office is staffed by lovely people. The Drs are helpful & respect my decisions for care of my guys. The heart-breaking decision to put our border collie down was dealt with by all staff so sweetly. Jake was well known because we always brought his ball with us…. Thank you to everyone at the clinic. 💖
