Salt River Veterinary Specialists

I cannot say enough great things about Salt River Veterinary Specialists From the moment we walked in, the entire staff was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely caring. Everyone took the time to answer my questions and made me feel confident that my dog, Buster, was receiving the very best care. Dr. Aguirre and Dr. Glick are both incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and trustworthy. They thoroughly explained everything, never made me feel rushed, and truly had Buster’s best interests at heart. It’s so refreshing to find a veterinary specialist team that combines exceptional care with reasonable pricing. The level of professionalism and kindness shown by the entire team made this one of the best veterinary experiences I’ve ever had. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, Buster is doing so much better. If you’re looking for a veterinary specialist you can trust, I highly recommend Salt River. They have earned a lifelong client in me!

We had a great experience with Salt River Veterinary Specialist from the first phone call I made. Kara took her time with me to listen to my concerns and even consulted with Dr. Glick before further advising me over the phone. She offered me a same day appointment but I chose to make an appointment the following day. Dr. Glick took her time to listen to our story and offer some insight into what we could expect. Ultimately, she performed an ultrasound on our Charlie and advised that she felt the next best step was surgery. She personally took the time to refer us to a surgeon that she felt would be the best fit and ultimately a cost effective option for us. She arranged for us to see the surgeon the next day and ultimately our pup received excellent care! If you're looking for excellent care and compassion for you and your pet, don't hesitate to visit Salt River, it was worth the long drive for us!

My dog had to spend a very long, expensive day in emergency a few weeks back. The critical care Dr said she needed to see an internal specialist for her condition. She recommended Salt River Veterinary Specialists. When I called and explained the situation they got us in same day which was amazing. Dr. Glick is amazing!! Her treatment and plan for Penny was spectacular. My dog went from not being able to support her own weight and in considerable pain to being basically back to 100% and pain free in 36 hours. Everyone in this office is professional and very expedient with serious issues. I will highly recommend this office and team to any friends or family who need exceptional care for their pet. Thank you Salt River Veterinary Specialists!!!

This place is amazing! Dr Rose is probably the best, most caring, knowledgeable specialist veterinarian I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet. Our dog has diabetes, and it’s been an up and down battle to get him stabilized. Dr Rose put everything together in 30min, his ultrasound his diet, his insulin….I can’t thank her enough. I am so encouraged from my visit with her. The whole staff is great, from front desk, to technician to doctor. This is the ultimate vet specialist hospital.❤️

I’m grateful beyond words for the care Dr. Aguirre provided to our beloved Susie. We brought Susie in for a routine abdominal ultrasound, and thanks to Dr. Aguirre’s expertise and attention to detail, he detected bladder cancer at a very early stage. While most dogs diagnosed with bladder cancer are predicted to live only months, Susie went on to live another three and a half years—time we treasured. Dr. Aguirre later helped us navigate Susie’s kidney issues. Dr. Aguirre is not only highly skilled and knowledgeable, but he also brings genuine compassion and warmth. I can’t recommend Dr. Aguirre and his staff highly enough. If you’re looking for excellent veterinary care with heart, this is the team you want on your side.

Dr. Aaren Glick is truly one of the kindest, most compassionate veterinarians we’ve ever worked with. She helped diagnose our dog with lymphoma, and she made an incredibly stressful and time-sensitive situation feel manageable. She went above and beyond, including calling me after hours with updates, and I genuinely felt like she gave me her full attention and made sure we weren’t forgotten. Because of her speed, diligence, and care, we were able to get the diagnosis quickly and get our dog into chemotherapy. That gave us an extra six months with him, and I will always be grateful for that time. Dr. Glick clearly cares deeply, and it shows in everything she does. I’m so thankful we had her as our dog’s doctor. She sent us a personal letter after our dog passed and again I am so grateful for her.

I brought my dog in to see Dr. Rose for some imaging after a recommendation my dog's primary care veterinarian. Dr. Rose was very informative and relatable. She was quick to provide ultrasound findings to me the same day and called me the next day with the blood work results. She gave great recommendations and was open to questions.
