Animal Health Services & Diagnostic Center

Excellent staff! They know how to care for dogs even my scared pup that barks a lot. Dr. Smith is one of the best. He helped diagnose my dog's rare disease and save her life. I would recommend them to all my friends and family.

My dog Dahlia is my pride and joy. In October of 2020 we almost lost her to IMT. The care here was excellent and they're incredible responsive and communicative. I've stayed here ever since. Her original vet that was here has since left but their remaining vets are good too.

Yesterday I had to put my beautiful baby Bailey to sleep. We called the vet we have been taking her to for the past 8 years (she was only 8). They said their next appointment was in a week or we could come in and wait for who knows how long for something to open up. We couldn't do that to ourselves or our dog. They had no compassion or sympathy for us whatsoever. So, my husband called Animal Health Services of Cave Creek.

They said they could fit us in right away. They had never seen us before, yet they were so caring and compassionate as I cried my eyes out. It was not easy making the decision to end our dog's life. Dr. Smith assured us we were not bad parents, and we were doing the right thing. I want to say thank you to Dr. Smith and Tamie at Animal Health Services of Cave Creek for treating us with such kindness and compassion. I will never again go back to our old vet.

My husband and I brought our dog here a little over 5 months ago to be spayed. The only health issue she previously had was an occasional ear infection. After surgery, she was released as okay. She didn't look okay, but we trusted the vet, so we took her home. Our girl died a few hours later. The staff at this facility did not provide the care our girl needed/deserved. Unfortunately, that's all I can say because of Google's Review Restrictions.

I'm hoping Google will allow this limited review to be posted because I believe it's Important for others to see. Pet owners, please take your pets elsewhere to be spayed/neutered, preferably to a facility that will monitor them long enough to ensure that they are actually okay when they are released back into your care.

You will not find a better vet than Dr. Lane Smith. He is absolutely the best vet we have had in years. All of the staff are friendly and helpful. His assistant Allison was kind and knowledgeable.

The receptionist was nice, friendly and professional. The doctor was cold, mechanical and had an arrogant attitude. Nobody in the whole clinic greeted, interacted or comforted my dog. I paid for a wellness check and Dr. Forrest had my dog out of the room for three minutes tops. No ACL check, no eye exam, not blood pressure test, not skin exam. A longer review was out on Yelp, this site won't take the whole review.

Look elsewhere to take your pet. Except for the receptionist, the place is cold, unfeeling and very unfriendly. Taking my dog back to where is loved, treated well and he loves everyone. Moved across the valley, but the drive will be worth it to return. My dog hated it there, always listen to your dog!

One of our pack snagged his due claw and was hurting Animal heath services has been our vet for 10 years. They fixed him up and updated shot and Ben is on the mend. Thank you Animal Health service.

This was my first visit to Animal Health Services of Cave Creek. My dog saw Dr. Smith. I was very impressed with him. He explained everything to me and reassured me about my concerns. I was amazed how hands on Dr. Smith was. He performed a lot of the procedures that another vet might have relegated to a tech. He was very involved. I was also happy that he let me hold my dog during the exam and procedures - trusting me that it would be a better experience for both the dog and the vet if I did (years of experience)! I highly recommend them.

We had to put our dog down and entire staff was so helpful and sympathetic. Dr Smith helped us through the procedure and we can't say enough about him. He made an excruciating situation the best it could be. He helped us to understand we had made the best decision for our precious dog. We can't say enough about about how kind and compassionate he is and was to us.

I love and trust all the vets and staff here. They are very professional and truly care. The place is clean bright and professional. The staff is efficient and the vets are wonderful. I have brought my miniature poodle here since he was 14 weeks old. They have cared for him and saved his life on one occasion.
