The worst service ever! DO NOT BRING YOUR PET HERE! The receptionist are absolutely the worst and do not care about your pets whatsoever. They will give you attitude and not assist. Do not spend a dime here.

I have been bringing my Havanese dog here for many years. I feel the doctor has been excellent in treating my dog. He explains what the problem is and how best to treat the dog. Their staff is helpful and friendly.

Animal Hospital of Desert was awesome. We were staying in PS area and our Westie with bladder cancer needed to be seen. After calling several vets only AHoD would help us. They provided Gus outstanding care during his visits and filled his prescriptions for us the 2 months we were there. We appreciate them so much. Thank you

Had to take our dog there. They were able to fit us in quickly for an extra fee. Every other place was full for a month.

Working with animals and their owners day after day must not be easy because emotions can be very high when your beloved animal is sick and or in pain. Many vets can come off as cold and clinical, Animal Hospital of the Desert and specifically the young tech who checks in the patient is no different, and with a bit of attitude. My cat was very sick with kidney failure and only days to live and we were from out of town but AHD took her in and stabilized her with fluid, blood test and temperature check.

The lead vet patiently explained her condition clearly with detail and my wife and I greatly appreciated that. They also had difficulty receiving my cat's records from our home vet but patiently stayed with me to receive the records to be analyzed. But the trouble came after my cat was discharged and I had follow up questions and asked if the doctor would call me back.

The young tech kept wanted me to tell her the question which was too complicated and her tone was bored anyway which in my worried state, I was in no mood for. So all in all, I have mixed feelings about AHD. I feel the lead vet is competent and articulate but again like many vets, the techs can sometimes come off as rude and uncaring and that's the last thing a pet owner wants when their beloved animal is sick and just paid a big bill.

Amber and Dr. Brockmeir really nice to our dog Zorro. They address all his issues and gave all the needed vaccines. Very professional really made Zorro feel better. This is our first visit here at this location. We move here at Palm Desert and now his Vets are only 5-6 mins drive from our house here at Sun City. Thanks again and Zorro said thank you too for making him feel better.

Absolute Liars. I brought my kitten in to get x-rays for a possible broken leg and was told it could possibly heal on its own since it was an extremely 'clean fracture' and all pieces were touching. I was charged $400 in total and the kittens leg was not set or wrapped. All we got were x-rays, which I did not receive until having to ask for 2 days, and Ibuprofen for cats.

When I finally received the x-rays, I saw why they were reluctant to give them. Her leg was not minimally fractured, but completely broken. He diagnosed her with a fractured tibia, but in fact both tibia AND fibula were broken completely in half. I am unable to comprehend how a trained vet would be able to so wrongly diagnose something as simple as this. DO NOT TAKE YOUR PETS HERE.

I was dismissive of the bad reviews since I was in a hurry to get her seen, and no one else was available, BUT IT IS NOT WORTH IT. Look elsewhere. He should not have his license.

Great experience. We were new to the area in November. In February my Boston terrier skin was inflamed red and his hair was falling out. I called several vets but due to COVID no one could see us for weeks. I took him to another vet that fit us in and it was a terrible experience. We left undiagnosed and without resolve. Animal hospital of the desert made time for us even though they were booked.

They diagnosed the issue immediately and at a fair cost. My dogs issues cleared up completely within a few weeks. I am very grateful for their professionalism and fair practice! Hank is completely healed and back to his normal self

I took my beagle in for a checkup two months ago, as I was noticing some problems with his bowels. When I got my dog back he was shaking and has a loose stools for months. The doctor said everything is fine and eight weeks later he died. The vets in the Desert are all bad and are money greedy people who don't really care about your pet all they want is money.
