Ravenna Animal Hospital

My dog typically goes to the Northwest Veterinary Hospital, but she got sick over a holiday weekend & the Ravenna Animal Hospital was able to see her within 30 minutes. My dog is reactive and very anxious at the vet, but everyone helped both her & I feel as comfortable as possible. Staff was friendly, understanding, and accommodating. The vet clearly explained several different options for care and provided enough information for me to feel like I was able to make a well informed choice. I really appreciated both the professionalism & the approachable communication.

Have had such a fantastic experience with everyone we’re encountered here. Incredibly courteous and responsive reception staff, caring and knowledgeable technicians and veterinarians. Transparent pricing and billing. So lucky to have found!

Edited: five stars to one star. I really do miss Dr. Donovan being here full time. I don’t believe I will take our dogs here again any time soon as I learned there were some important or rather fundamental things missed during our last visit in regards to the reason I scheduled the appointment in the first place. Maybe these were a miscommunication I’m not sure and it’s not worth risking my best friend’s health to find out. Since this was the second instance of that happening at this clinic I am not comfortable negating the likelihood this will reoccur (albeit the first was 4 years ago). I’m unable to recommend at this time and to those I have recommended to over the years, if you are satisfied with the care your animal is receiving please do not consider this review a rebuke of this clinic. It’s just not meeting our specific needs at this time. Why only one star? I am a bit salty for two reasons 1. The fact that we paid so much for shots at my fur kid’s well puppy visits and they forgot his rabies shot, which is illegal in the city I live in. And 2., that I could not use the online pharmacy without paying for a visit, despite this being the clinic that diagnosed the condition in which I was seeking either the medication I believed was applicable, or medication suggested by the vet. The condition was IVDD, so this meant my fur kid had to experience unnecessary pain. I ended up getting my dog’s medication from the vet I took him to for a second opinion without having to pay for a redundant appointment. In retrospect, considering all of the other red flags I should have done this in the first place. One highlight is that the scheduling associate is amazing! I’m sad Dr. Donovan isn’t here full time anymore, given his status as “The Frenchie Whisperer”, but I will not miss the indifference to my fur kid’s painful condition or the increased costs of services sans the increased level of care to match.

Our cats have received good, thoughtful care there since Seattle Veterinary Associates took over the practice. We didn't hesitate to call them when we adopted our most recent pet in April, 2022.

I couldn't be happier with Ravenna Animal Hospital. My little dog had been ill for several days. I was so grateful that Ravenna Animal Hospital was able to offer care to my dog. The front desk staff was warm and welcoming. The veterinary assistant was wonderful. Both the veterinary assistant and Dr. Donovan had a wonderful way of interacting with my anxious dog. Happy to report that my dog was feeling better within a day!
