Community Pet Hospital, Washington

My 14 pound dog was attacked by a neighbor's 120# dog. She was bleeding and in pain. Emergency services at the Washington location took her immediately. I was impressed with the physician who was caring and gentle. Instructions were clear and delivered in written form (important when you are not thinking clearly). Follow-up was done by Dr. Borys at the Riverdale location. Dr. Borys is always wonderful. She knows my dog and me. I highly recommend her. It is so important for nervous pets (and their owners) that they see the same Vet each visit.

This clinic is by far the best we've been to. We always have a positive experience. The prices are more expensive now, which makes it a little more difficult to get everything done that they recommend. So we only get the necessary things. I like nurse Brandy. She never makes us feel like we're making the wrong choice. She makes sure to let us know we have options and takes care to explain what they are. Very low pressure. The doctor she works with Dr Ladner is really calm and thorough. They're really funny together and easy with our dog which makes things go smooth for all of us. They make us all comfortable and I like that. I recommend this place.

I’m so thankful for all the staff here and how sweet they are to both me and my cat for every visit. I’ve seen Dr. Bruce and Dr. Harmon but every person we’ve interacted with there has been great. Juice seems to really enjoy coming here and all the love he gets from the vet techs and doctors. They give him lots of love and are very gentle with him. I appreciate that they’re so thorough and take time to answer any questions I have. And very quick service! Regarding prices, I’ve only ever been here but they seem very fair to me. They’re very transparent with pricing during your visit so you know what to expect. I highly highly recommend pet insurance to all pet owners to eliminate financial concerns when it comes to taking care of your pet.

We recently lost our puppies and had to make the hard decision to put them down , this staff is very caring and passionate about what they do and I could not recommend a better vet to take your fur babies to. I would like to thank the team for this beautiful letter I received in the mail today you guys are wonderful . 🤍

I get having animals are costly, but they could have recommended us on a different pet hospital instead of putting our fur baby down. But they could have recommended somewhere else to fit our budget. I get businesses need money. But some operations shouldn't be crazy expensive.

Excellent animal hospital for emergencies, as well as routine and non emergency veterinary care. We have had three of our dogs, and one other family members cat be treated at this location over the past 2+ years, and have nothing but high praise for our experiences. Some visits were urgent and serious, some visits were routine wellness or exams, and every time we were there the staff was awesome. We have had diagnoses and treatment plans provided to us by a broad range of their people, and have found an excellent blend of knowledge, professionalism and personalities across the board. They always have listened to us, and worked on a plan that was best for us. I’ve sat in that waiting room for several routine visits, and observed the care and compassion provided to other patients during very difficult times. Very nice to see. Would recommend 👍

Come here if you want someone to give you the runaround and take your money! Our cat has been having some issues with her appetite and digestion, which has gradually but quickly gotten worse. We took our dog here all the time, so we took our cat here too. The receptionists are all very nice for the most part. when we brought our cat in, they took her in a separate room for about 45 minutes, said they were giving her an exam. They came back and said she had a lump and said they’d run tests on it and said it was "probably just fat", then they ran more tests. we probably paid almost $1000 in blood tests, urine tests, and fecal tests, just with two/three visits. Our cat pretty much stopped eating entirely. We told the vet this, and they said we would need to run more tests. these tests would take weeks to come back. Honestly, we just wanted them to be straight up with us, tell us if it was bad, we don’t want to let our cat suffer. But it just never felt like they were being clear, they just wanted to do more tests and not give us anything to help the current situation, it felt like they were being secretive and doing anything to get more money from us. Eventually, after all the back and forth, we found a different vet that squeezed us in for an ultrasound, and they found 3 tumors within 15 minutes of looking at our cat, compared to the more than an hour we spent at community vet hospital. The new vets were surprised that they couldn’t find the other lumps and that they didn’t give anything to help our kitty cat, even after testing the most visible lump. The new vets gave us an on-site administered treatment. nothing that’s a guaranteed life saver, but something to give us a small chance. Most importantly, the new vets were honest with us about the situation, not just continuing to run tests that would take time we do not have. It only ever felt like they were looking for the best way to make the most money and break our hearts even more at the same time. For an emergency hospital, they had no sense of urgency. Avoid this one
