Yelm Veterinary Hospital

The staff here are amazing. We have been taking our two dogs here for years and I wish we had found them sooner. We recently had to let our beloved Cash go after 14 years and I just can't say enough about how kind and considerate they were during this incredibly difficult time.

Brought our elderly dog here about a month and a half ago after another dog attacked him and his side was badly swollen, had multiple punctures from teeth, had a gash on his gums. He got a cursory glance over, was told they couldn't find anything even though we have clear pictures of the bite marks. Wouldn't allow us into the clinic with him to show them the marks even though he is very elderly and suffers severe separation anxiety so not even sure they actually looked at him. Told us he had a skin infection but wouldn't tell us what and didn't offer any medications. Gave us the same basic medication for his chronic yeast infection in his ears that we have told them before does nothing for him. And when we take him for basic care appointments they give him the same basic medication that does NOTHING for him. Doesn't help with his ears, the pain medication makes him sick and doesn't help with his pain. They won't do scans or anything else to see if there's anything we can do for him. He is suffering and it really feels like they don't care or want to help us. At this point even just a vet telling us it's time would be better than wasting our money on medications that don't help and stressing him out with multiple car rides to the vet which has gotten VERY expensive for very little help. Over all a terrible experience with them this last year. It's a shame because this used to be our vet of choice. We will be going to another clinic to help our poor old man and get appropriate medications. Don't take your elderly dogs here if you want to see them live a long happy life.

Most compassionate vets and techs I've ever been to. All the receptionist are amazing. I lost 3 fur babies all in a span of a few months due to old age and they all where so very nice and compassionate. I'm glad I made the switch

Sent 3 emails, filled out 2 forms, and called twice... all within a few hours time. Never heard back so took my in need of urgent care cat to the clinic only to be told they wouldn't see her. I only showed up because their website states walk-ins and emergencies are welcome. They need to make their website more clear as that's obviously not true.
