Sondel Family Veterinary Clinic

My experience with Sondel has been just ok overall, but I left extremely disappointed after my recent experience. Everything has always felt very rushed, and communication never felt as thorough or compassionate as it should have been. What really upset me was during my dog’s labor and delivery situation. For a facility that claims to specialize in reproductive work, allowing my dog to continue suffering during normal business hours instead of stepping in sooner felt incredibly concerning and honestly unethical to me. I trusted this clinic throughout her pregnancy and paid a significant amount for prenatal care expecting experienced support when it mattered most. Unfortunately, when we truly needed help, I did not feel supported or prioritized. It’s a real shame because I had high expectations for a veterinary facility advertising reproductive expertise. Very disappointed with how everything was handled.

I used Sondel (both clinics) to perform a TCI breeding with my Swedish vallhund, and had a great experience! We are expecting our first litter now in about 17 days. Everybody at Sondel was so kind, knowledgeable, and patient with all my questions. ☺️

Had a great first experience here. They were able to get out dog in the same day. It was easy to have a conversation with Dr. Sondel, he seemed very accessible and knowledgeable. We will be bringing all of our dogs' reproductive needs to the clinic!

We have been coming here for 3 years, this last experience was horrible. Doctor was pushy, no communication about procedure, and the procedure he was performing was the wrong one but we had no time to stop him. His goal was how fast he could get us out the door. We are even unsure if he performed the analysis correctly. This experience was awful and I wouldn’t recommend this vet to anyone anymore. Bad day or not that vet did not put his patient or customer 1st.

One of the best veterinary clinics I have ever had the opportunity to have. They took amazing care of our dogs and even helped us see one through his passing. These people are amazing and the owners are very responsive. Hercules is a happy 12.5 year old customer! Thank you Sondel!

I am a breeder and I highly recommend this place. Dr. Sondel and is team is perfect. I had 3 cats with pyometra and he treated them. I am grateful we have them!

The East clinic is incredible. Much more personable and "comfortable" than the West. Staff was awesome. Had to update some contact info & they were very helpful. Took my lab in today for routine shots and I had some questions, every question was thoroughly answered and Dr. Wallisch took her time & listened to my questions and concerns. They also gave my pup plenty of treats AND a free stuffed Hedgehog toy when we left. Only spent $300. I would honestly recommend this place to ANYONE!!
