Alta Mesa Animal Hospital - Jill Patt

All of the staff were friendly and professional. Office and patient areas are clean and well lit. I was running late and they were still able to see my corso, Louie. I truly appreciated the fact that they were still able to get us seen. I highly recommend them.

Updated post: I have 4 dogs and each have been seen by Alta. I have an elderly dog who is about 16 years old. She doesn't like to have her nails trimmed and it causes her great anxiety. Most groomers do not proceeded to clip her nails as she will growl or try to nip you. Went to Alta and they were so patient with her. They put a muzzle on her and that seemed to calm her down.

Long story short they trimmed all of her nails and Roxy my elderly chihuahua is much more happy. Thanks Alta Mesa Animal hospital vet and staff! Old post: We've been here for years but it might be time to look elsewhere. My puppy came down with a parasite and had some yeast in the ears. They gave some medication for her to take for a week. We had a mini check up to see if the yeast was gone.

The vet tech checked one ear and luckily I was watching her get ready to check the other one as she had the q-tip backwards! Meaning she was going to poke my pup with the stick! I yelled wrong side! All she said was oh! Second upset, came with my dog throwing up one night and we took her to a 24 hour clinic. For them to still see the parasite and tell is that the medication given to us alone would not be enough to rid the parasite.

It had to be accompanied by another medication. I was so upset a whole week we were doing something that wasn't going to work. We paid for medication and a vet visit for nothing! It's not cheap these visits. Now she is on the correct medication and has a follow up appointment scheduled and I'm truly considering after the check up to move on.

Great office staff and veterinary care team. They always take such great care with our pooches and I can't and have nothing negative to say.

We brought out dog in for a check up because he was alternating quivering and panting. They immediately diagnosed valley fever ( he showed none of the symptoms) or pain. Following a spine xray ( perfectly normal) blood work was run. Low red blood elevated white. He had an infection of some sort. They would only prescribe a pain medication. In the meantime his valley fever results were negative.

His symptoms progressed to death in less than a week What was striking about this service was the extreme lack of curiosity about what was wrong with our dog. We placed several phone calls to ask for a broad spectrum antibiotic- to no avail. DO NOT GO HERE. It appears that our dog was infected by something at the doggy park we visit. Other animals got sick but survived because they were properly diagnosed. No curiosity- no follow up. Sub- standard care.

Amazing care by the Doctors. No complaints always attentive and take special care of my fur kiddos. But, good luck trying to get an appointment with them. They have taken on too many clients for them to handle. This will be the 3rd time they have had to reschedule for more revenue appointments like surgeries. Then can't seem to find an open spot you over booked? Absolutely unprofessional.

Because we like a one on one appointment they called when a cancelation allowed it. Our dog got his shots to update him and blood work for his upcoming dental care. They called later that evening to check on him and again because he was still not back to his old self. That was after 6:30 at night. We are very happy with the care he receives and all the people who care for him.

Took my fur baby there after a recent Acute liver injury scare. They got her in fast for a lab checkup. The ladies at the front desk were extremely welcoming. The vet was very knowledgeable and took her time to answer any of my questions. She also called me herself regarding my dogs lab work. You can tell the entire staff sincerely cares about your animals well being. I definitely recommend this place for your pets needs!

Despite my reservations after hearing from a few people that the clinic had a poor reputation floating around among some pet owners, I had to take my little 7 week male Chihuahua in and was truly stumped as to why some people had labeled it a "bad clinic" and had tried to warn me away from it! The staff was knowledgeable, accommodating (to the point of letting me, a very stressed pet owner at the time, come in half an hour before closing and being not the slightest bit rude or rushed to get us out) Their main concern was my puppy and making sure he got the care he needed and they gave me a follow up appointment for him at no charge, just to make sure his treatment was working well for him.

They were gentle and patient (with both me and my pup, cause going to a vet can be scary!) and took the time to answer all of my questions to my full satisfaction so I understood everything I needed to to take care of my little one. I can not for any reason fathom why anyone would not love this place. Bonus is the prices are reasonable and they have pet plans you can get if that's more your style.

They even gave us humans lollipops and a free can of high grade dog food for my little pup who was having some tummy troubles to see if that would help. Again, at no charge. Not to say I didn't have to pay for anything, obviously I did, but everything was discussed and chosen specifically for my pup's case and never did I feel forced into paying for something unnecessary like I have at other vets. I highly recommend them. They truly do treat your pet as if it is their own and genuinely care. Excellent establishment!
