Healthy Pet Altoona

I chose to try this vet since it is so much closer to our home and I am so glad I switched! I feel like they really listen to me and love the animals they work with! I also appreciate that they are open on Saturdays since I work Mon-Fri.

After many years with Dr. Khan in Chetek,we were so happy he expanded his practice into Altoona. Less drive time for us !!! The Vets and staff in Altoona are wonderful - warm, kind with clients - two legged and four. We recommend them to anyone looking for a doctor for their pets .

Iv been going to another vet for years but this one opened and is much closer to my home. They’ve been difficult to work with at times, the vet is nice but the techs can be rude. When my dog had an emergency they were able to get me in but completely overcharged me and continued to be overly expensive. They wanted $50 just for a foot bandage. I went and got the same supplies at fleet farm for $10 which made multiple bandage changes. They had me keep his foot wrapped for a week, which I turn led to infection and he had to be put back under, recleaned and then they wanted me to keep it uncovered. I don’t feel I should have been charged for the second visit and cleaning since it was their direction that led to infection. Today I called to pick up a steroid injection for my cat that has allergy issues, this has not been an issue in the past. Now they want him to come in for a wellness exam. He’s had the same diagnosis for 8 years which comes and goes and we give him the injections to calm it down. They have no appointments today so by Monday or whenever they can get me in he’ll have no skin left. I’ll call my other vet who is never difficult and is always willing to help and puts the animals first.

We trust and definitely recommend Healthy Pet Altoona. The staff there are very knowledgeable and helpful. They got us in right away when we needed to have our dog looked at. They follow up and return calls promptly. Plus.. they don't charge and arm and a leg for their services! Small and personable vet clinic, and if we trust you with our Bailey, you are top notch! So excited to have you in Altoona!

I went in with my dog Emma for vomiting issues. I shared everything I knew to doctor schuster about her issues. She gave me a variety of options but suggested to have at least 1 x-ray done before the long weekend. She was 100% right and saved my dogs life. Once again she gave me options on how to proceed without any judgement of my financial abilities. I had her and her magnificent team take my dog into her hands. My dog was comfortable and never showed any signs of fear with any of the staff. A+rating by me. I don't fear the vet anymore. I know my animals will have the absolute best treatment possible!
