Buckman Veterinary Clinic

Can’t say enough good things about Buckman Vet!!! We’ve been going for 2.5 years and when we started with Buckman Vet, we had what we thought a previous vet told us was just a "low energy puppy" but Dr. Lord was able to spot and diagnose our pup with an underactive thyroid, getting this addressed and treated has been a game changer for his quality of life. They are always kind and accommodating with my questions or concerns, prompt to get back to us, and I truly feel they will always do what is best for our dogs. Even when we move out of the Buckman area, we will continue with Buckman Vet! Appreciate each and every employee!!

I absolutely love this veterinary office. I have the unfortunate pet parent's dilema of having had 3 special needs geriatric cats when I first found this office 2-3 years ago. Now with 2 special needs geriatric kitties remaining, I still visit here often. Although my emotions and my wallet are often taxed by my kitties health situations, the office is always a delight to visit. Every staff member is amazing, compassionate, handle the kitties better than any other vet office I've ever been to in the 13-18 years of these kiddos lives. I cannot praise the office enough. 🩵

My cat had a FULL mouth dental extraction at different vet in Washington. I've taken him to Buckman Veterinary throughout the years in between my time in Portland and WA. He developed some concerning issues about 10 days post-procedure and Buckman got in him in RIGHT AWAY! They were so caring, thorough and swift in identifying what happened and treating him. The cost wasn't what I'd call 'cheap' (not their fault, it's sort of the nature of emergency vet stuff) but it was incredibly fair considering all they did for him. He is feeling so much better and finally back to his regular self ❤️ thank you for caring about my boy Blue!

We absolutely adore the doctors and staff at Buckman Vet. They are incredibly patient and gentle with our anxious dog, clear about cost of procedures, and great with us as pet parents with lots of questions. They give us and our dog ample time during our visits, and make us feel heard about our concerns. There is usually a wait list for an establishing care visit, but it is well worth it to have a vet you can trust. We recommend Buckman Vet to anyone and everyone.

I moved to Portland a couple of years ago and did tons of research before choosing a vet for my senior cat, Sir Dudess Louise VonLichtenstein. I landed at Buckman Veterinary Clinic based on the glowing reviews. They are certainly not the cheapest vet in town, but I truly believe in my heart that you get what you pay for. I would go hungry before taking my baby to a different vet. Everyone on their staff is kind, caring, and a joy to interact with. Dr. Johnson is an angel, and Em is incredibly gentle and patient with my dramatic little Dude. Their responsiveness and follow-ups are impeccable, and they explain everything in so much detail that I never have follow-up questions. I have been a pet parent for over 20 years, and this is by far the best veterinary practice I have ever visited. Do not let the few negative reviews scare you away. If you want the best care for your fur babies, this is the place to go.

We have trusted Buckman Vet for years and wouldn't consider going to anyone else. They have compassionately seen us through new puppy, hard senior years, and everything in between. Every single person at Buckman clearly cares immensely and is so kind. I also really appreciate how reachable and responsive they are for quicker questions outside of appointments.

Carlie is the best!! She made my move to Hawaii with my German shepherd husky so painless and easy. She helped me get everything set up, all I had to do was bring the dog to the appointments to get her treatment, and Carlie did the rest. She’s always so happy and bubbly when I talk to her. Her energy is radiant and my dog absolutely loves her! We love you Carlie!! Buckman is lucky to have you! 💛
