Critter Doctor Animal Hospital

After searching far and wide for a compassionate vet who cares about the critters and not the price tag, this place is a godsend. We have taken three of our pets here and are so happy we found them. I can even make next day appointments, which has been wonderful, as one of our cats passed last year because we couldn’t find a vet with any openings. Thank you for loving animals and not just a paycheck, we are so thankful for you!

I really really wanted to like this clinic because it's walking distance from my home and it would have been so nice for my cats to not have to deal with car ride stress when going to the vet. However, their policy is that they do not allow you to watch how they interact with your pet at all and I cannot feel comfortable with that. I wasn't even able to meet the vet who would be performing the exam before they wanted to separate us. My cat and I are closely bonded and she would have been drastically more anxious apart from me, just as I was apart from her. I've never encountered that policy with a vet before and we had exams performed in the room with me with our previous 3 vets. My cats are sweet and non-problematic at the vet and we've never had any issues doing that. I wish they cared enough about client comfortability to have some flexibility in that regard. I asked a million times why and I'm still not entirely sure what their reasoning for the strict policy was - it didn't make adequate sense to me. I will be finding my cats a vet that prioritizes everyone's comfort. Very bummed about this one. :( the prices seemed good and the vet seemed good in our brief interaction afterward, but the policy made me too uncomfortable to proceed. All any good pet owner would want is some basic reassurance that they would be kind and caring towards their pets and you can't get that from strangers that you never have and never will see interact with them..

Dr Kat was great to work with! She was super friendly, and went slow and steady with my senior dog. He was so happy and cooperative because of how patient she was, I appreciated that so much! I'll definitely be bringing my dog here from now on.

My cat Illy was very sick and I was unable to get him into my regular clinic or emergency because they were both full. I got the critter doctors phone number from Redmond emergency. The critter doctor acted immediately when I called. They were able to see my kitty for a drop off appointment and ran labs in house for him. I was relieved to get my kitty treatment so quickly and grateful to them for taking me on such short notice. They were very professional and my kitty is doing so much better. Thank you so much critter doctor for all your help and diligence.

Our dog is a frequent flier here and they have always been fantastic, up front and give you all the options for whatever may arise. Our dog gets excited rather than dreading the trip to the vet.
