The staff's lack of experience translates with their very expensive treatment plans. They are not sure or certain about anything and therefore, they run all sorts of tests so the bills for my dogs are often in the $200 - $300 range for a visit that should not cost more than $60 - $80. The more expensive visit's I've had here are in the $1k+ range and I've always left feeling uneasy about how much I am being charged. Here is the final straw however - I had an appointment this Spring and ended up waiting for two hours. I then elected to leave my dog their based on their request for more time. I didn't have a choice since we were heading into the weekend and need my dog seen. Hours later, I had not received a call (they said she should be seen in the next hour) so I called to check status and they still hadn't gotten to her. Zero communication ruined all plans that evening with out of town guests and I received a $280.00 bill for treating Giardia (gross)! It doesn't stop there, I had to pay for a full appointment for shot updates for Bordatella when we had already done a full wellness check earlier that year but they refused to do it with out another full exam so I ended up skipping the service and going somewhere else...Urban Animal and the total cost was $60.00. I kindly let the Dr. know that it was unacceptable one afternoon after I had had enough. I had not been back sense until my husband was in the neighborhood this afternoon and decided to give them another try and dropped in for a nail trim. He walked in and they tried to tell him that they had never seen one of our dogs (quite the opposite) and that they required proof of a rabies shot to do a nail trim...which is ironic since she had her last rabies shot with them. He walked out in disbelief. That's it... we're driving all the way to Cap Hill for a nail trim and never going back to CCVH. Do not recommend.

Columbia City is hands down the best vet I have ever been to. This team is incredible. The vets are kind and compassionate, patient, and very knowledgeable. They diagnosed a couple really tough conditions in our dog Kali long before the symptoms were very clear. In the process they worked with us through myriad discussions and tests and always involved us in the decision making. They are cost-aware and work to find the best care that fits the family. Dr. Dean is absolutely incredible and went over and above calling us in the evening or weekends and emailing with us as we were in the thick of some very serious health issues with our dog. I feel very confident in their quality of care and their whole staff was always a pleasure to work with. The building is modern, clean, and well designed. Ultimately our senior dog needed to be put down and, in one of the hardest days of my life, the team responded amazingly. Within hours on a Saturday a team was at my house, where my dog could be more at ease. They were kind and loving and clearly explained the process and asked if we had questions. They gave us all the time we needed with her and you could tell it pained them too. I am deeply grateful for the superb care and compassion we received here.

New client! I called in and got a very nasty Receptionist replying with Sarcasm and rudeness just because I asked if there were a chance to get an earlier appointment! Adam Called back and was very nice and convinced me it wasn't the ordinary so I kept the appointment. I met up with Dr. Kati Rob and the visit seemed going well! My puppies tested positive for Giardia and one of them stopped eating, I send an e-mail e didn't hear back, I called a day later and was told "We were just about to call you", go transfer to a nurse and they didn't tell me to ho to an ER emergency but to call them the following day at 7am hoping for the best that I might be a lucky client to call first to get a same day appointment ... "Hoping for the best?" even though you know of the problem etc... I felt there weren't much care of the client or patient but only about the transaction itself. This was just an awful experience customer service wise and care. The Vets might care but thats not what make the whole business I'm afraid. I send an e.-mail letting them know about my grievance requesting my records and without any apologies or human empathy as a response they just send me the reads requested. Thats not care.

We took our pup, Charlee, here who has an abundance of allergy issues. We knew what we wanted and what has historically worked for her. They were prompt with scheduling, getting records from our out of state vet, and even re-scheduling our appointment we scheduled a lot sooner (day of!). The place is clean, they have really cool marketing, and the staff are all really nice. Regarding pricing, I found this to be one of the most transparent prices I've ever seen. I'm a healthcare professional myself and I've never seen a place more open to the cost. I wish hospitals were like this. The doctor broke down everything before we went to the counter in room privately so there was no shock once we went to the counter. The only downside was our pup is very (!!) people anxious so they couldn't complete all of the bloodwork needed today because our dog wasn't very cooperative in the back. May not be the greatest for uber anxious pets but still a great place with great staff and honest pricing.

I transferred my dog Nova’s care here when Dr. Schroeder joined the team since she has been her vet since she was a puppy. Nova loves coming to see Dr. Schroeder and I trust her and the team so much with their care for her. We drive from past Duvall to come here because I love this team and trust their care so much! Over the past couple years we have seen a number of people on the team and we always feel taken care of and in good hands. The team has gone out of their way to reassure me and ease my anxiety when Nova underwent a dental surgery with multiple tooth extractions, and called to give regular check ins. They are always helpful with getting a last minute appointment when I call or email, and Maggie has helped me make many decisions about Nova’s health. I recommended this place to friends and they now bring their pets here too. Thank you everyone at Columbia City Vet for all that you do for the animals we are lucky enough to have in our lives! You all are truly amazing.

We brought our dog here because all other vets around were closed and we needed quick guidance on whether our dog needed emergency care or whether we could wait. Nicole, at the front desk, on Saturday March 4th in the morning, was unreasonably rude and dismissive. We tried to explain what was going on and she interrupted us, again, and told us that she cannot help us at all. We clarified once again and asked her to take a quick look, but claimed she couldn’t without allowing us to finish our sentence. Then she rudely stated that all she can do is to tell us whether or not he needs more care (which is what we wanted in the first place, but she could not stop herself from rudely interrupting us). Her tone towards us was infantilizing, she was completely disrespectful, and we are shocked by how a small community vet can have such lacking hospitality. We are disappointed and we hope that there will special attention or training moving forward on how to treat potential clients.

This is hands down the best vet I've ever taken my pets to. The folks at the front desk are SO kind, caring, and helpful - even when they're busy. The vet who cares for my pets is thorough, gentle, and actually listens to me. I never feel like they're trying to upsell me, and during times when they're way too busy to see my pet for something non-life-threatening (like skin rash, for example), they always follow up with a personal email that has a list of over-the-counter solutions suggested by the vet. Some vets in this area will either not return your call or basically tell you "tough luck" if they can't see you. I deeply appreciate this team of people and the care they provide!

Overall this place provides great care for my two dogs for routine procedures. The problem is their policy when you need your pet seen for a sickness/issue. You have to call at 730a for a “same day” appointment which are very limited. If the issue arose after that, good luck getting care here, you’ll be invited to call at 730a the next day (if you can get through at that time) or seek care somewhere else. Their front desk staff has become incredibly rude, forgetting there are long time patients and customers here who just want their pet to be seen by their vet. It is unfortunate how the level of service and accessibility has goes down here, it used to be an awesome place.

Personable, friendly, attentive and integral to the community. You'll find this place offers medicine that isn't rushed so fast that silly errors are made. The staff is genuinely friendly and they make you feel right at home. I love the small space and local vibe of this clinic. Stop in and say hi sometime I guarantee you they'll be happy to see ya. I previously thought that a walk-in model was perfect, but not when it comes to medicine. And the great thing is, if you have a serious issue or a concern that you feel needs immediate attention - the team will make it work. Even if it's just a paranoid pet daddy worried about nothing. Thanks Columbia City Vet! Ya'll rock.

Columbia City Veterinary Hospital is by far the best place to take your pets. I was incredibly nervous for my little one as it was her first vet visit and it was not for a routine health check. I received such a warm welcome and was calmed by Dr. Lizzy Dean. She answered my million questions and was so sweet to my fur baby. I even requested that they put one of her favorite toys in with her and they did! I love their texting options and they are very quick to respond. Both Dr. Lizzy Dean and the hospital attendant Imani were terrific! I cannot thank them enough for helping our little family out. I HIGHLY recommend them!

Dr. Lizzy is incredibly caring, professional and knowledgeable. I completely trust her expertise and recommendations for my pet's health and longevity. Clinic communication is excellent and Dr. Lizzy follows up with a personalized video reporting on your pet's test results which I think is a great value add to the care. My appointments have been prompt and timely and all communication leading up to them, including new COVID protocol has been seamless and well done. I love this clinic and though I have closer options, I choose to drive from 30 minutes away to have my pet taken care of here.

We love this vet! Even in times of COVID they have been personable, attentive, and quick responses to email and phone. I was leaving town and needed to get my pup a flu shot and they were able to get her in next day. They also helped me track down her previous records to determine whether or not she'd need a booster. They have really stepped up where past experiences with other vets have fallen through. I live in the area so location is convenient, but I'll continue to make the drive should we ever move. They are worth it!

i Gerald Thompson just took my puppy to try to get shots and nails done on 01-05-22 at 12:20 pm the lady at the desk was so disrespectful and very rude toward me. i really dont appreciate and disrespect absolutely horrible i will be reporting this. i will be contacting her boss . i understand everyone going thru hard times but if she continue at that desk with her attitude there will be no business. i will no be using there service until i talk with the boss she is definitely a (KAREN)

I can't say enough about this vet hospital. The entire team, from the vets to the technicians and front desk, is incredible. They provide exceptional care for our pets. Recently, my senior dog had health issues, and Dr. Schroeder and the their assistant Theron went above and beyond to help. They were responsive, compassionate, and explained everything thoroughly. Their prices are reasonable, and I'm grateful to have found this hospital and its amazing team.

I have been taking my senior cat here for about 2.5 years. They have taken amazing care of him, and always are upfront about cost, needs, and the reasoning behind everything. On top of that Lizzy Dean, vet and co-owner, goes above and beyond in explaining in detail to me my cat's condition and all the ends and outs. I always feel well taken care myself, and like my cat (as grumpy as he is going to the vet!) seems to get the highest level of care.

I discovered this wonderful clinic while I was temporarily caring for my friend's pup. The front desk and clinic staff were excellent and everyone went above and beyond to treat us like family and enable us to leave the visit feeling happy and relieved. Through a significant amount of detective work, they made sure my pup got everything he needed to feel better, with a lot of ear rubs and love along the way. I would highly recommend them!

I was very impressed with the care and treatment we received yesterday when we had our cat euthanized. I am a LVT but did not want to go to my place of work for such a difficult and personal event. We did not feel rushed, the staff were very professional and calm, there was no air of stress in the building at all. The staff were all pleasant and polite and our dear little Aero had such a peaceful end in a caring environment. Thank You.

I’ve been taking my cats Humphrey & Harley to Columbia City Vet from day one that I rescued them. The courtesy and care towards my fur babies and me has been top notch every time, even through COVID. Maggie Schroeder’s knowledge and calm bed side manor really give me and my cats the confidence to be at ease and ask any questions, as silly as they may sound sometimes. Thanks for the years of service to me and the greater community.

I am very thankful for each staff member at CC vet hospital. They took great care of both my dog and me. They go out of their way to make the animals feel comfortable and also provided me with options to care for my dog that fit my budget. And most importantly, they saved my dog! I feel very bonded to this group, they have gone above and beyond to help my best friend. I am endlessly thankful.

Incredible team of vets, techs, assistants, and front desk. I'm blown away by how responsive the team is in getting our kitten the care that he needs with his condition, whether it is in refilling his meds, getting his special diet food, or returning our call for urgent checkups and tech visits. Their prices are also very reasonable. We're blessed to live so close by to such a great clinic.

This place is the best vet I have ever been to. Being a new puppy mom, I freak out a lot and no matter how many times I call them, they are ALWAYS so nice and beyond helpful. They're so sweet to my puppies and take good care of them. I honestly am never taking my dog to any other hospital. I'd give y'all 1000 stars if I could but I'm limited to 5 so there you go

Dr.Lizzy is the best vet I have ever worked with. She genuianly loves all the pets and does a great job communicating in a way that we can understand with what is going on with my pet. I am sad that I had to leave Seattle, but Sadie LOVED this place. Thank you all again for your support and helping get Sadie feeling better again.

I’ve never written an online review before, but Columbia City Vet deserves it. When our cat had a reaction to his vaccine, we took him back in and they gave him a Benadryl shot at no cost. Our dog gets excited just going in. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff. I’ve been to a lot of different vets, and CCV is my favorite.

This is the Vet I went to when my much loved, long term Vet Dr Young in Rainier Beach sold his practice. I was impressed with the care my elderly cat received from Dr. Lizzy Dean and the rest of the staff. I feel confident that their care allowed my furry friend to live another year and a half of good quality life.

Wonderful staff and very friendly doctors who really took the time to help an aging Greyhound get the best care plan out of life. The hyper Terrior mix gets his nails done without a squeak and they e-mail me notifications on upcoming shots and results of labs. Tech Savvy with good people and pooch skills!

CCVet is incredible! Very considerate and tender care when our elderly cat came to the end of his life. And super responsive, including a house call, when one of our pups was in too much pain to be lifted into the car. They're more than a business - they're genuine humani-doga-cata-tarians! ❤️

The doctors and staff here are amazing!! They have treated me and my kitty with such kindness, I really appreciate the extra time taken to explain care options. They go above and beyond by following up on email and have always been super responsive and quick to get us in as needed. Thank you!

We love taking our dog here. They treat him and us so well and they do such a good job with him. They have a traveling surgeon that comes through for more serious procedures which we have had to use before. I'd highly recommend people in the area to take there pets here!

I cannot say enough good things about this place. As a new dog owner, they have been so patient answering all of my questions, offering advice and reassurance, and making sure my dog (and my cat) stay healthy. Dr. Dean and her staff go above and beyond. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend. They are straight-forward, and Dr. Lizzy is very nice and personal in discussing your pet. I appreciated their communication via email and ability to answer questions after the appointment. Will definitely be bringing my dog back here, they are great.

Went to CCVH for the first time last month. The team is put-together and knowledgeable, they had me in early BOTH times I've seen them. Vet pegged my dog's allergy in the first 5 minutes and was right - it's been a life-changer for me and my pup! Thanks!

We’ve had very positive experiences and great care for our crew of pets from the team at CC vet. I also want to give a special shout-out to Dr. Shroeder and Jeana who went above and beyond to help us when our senior pup needed emergency care.

I recently switched my vet over to Columbia City Vet and I was so pleasant with our overall experience. I had inquired about being a new patient two weeks ago and was told to fill an online form. They got back to me shortly and was able to

Our dog, Thumper, was hit by a car around 8:00am 2 days ago. My partner's sister took initiative to rush Thumper to the nearest open vet at the time and it turned out to be this one! There aren't any other vets open around this time on

as a fellow veterinarian (large animal), I have known Dr Lizzy Dean (and her horse!) for years and she has a way above average energy and dedication to medicine and animals. She is an cutting edge practitioner, has the rare balance of

We always have a great experience with this vet for both our 11 mo puppy and our adult cat. They have excellent customer service and appreciate the check ins and follow ups even after we leave the vet!

Amazing vet. Very friendly and nice facility. Vet really went the extra mile to figure out what was wrong with our dog. Really took the time to talk through everything. Was conscious of costs as well.

I moved to Seattle about a year ago, I was very thorough when looking for vet clinics. I love this clinic! It's small but very friendly atmosphere, and amazing staff!

Such a wonderful vet and staff! They are so helpful, kind, and willing to answer my MANY questions. I felt very comfortable with my (very anxious) dog in their hands.

Lots of hard working people, increase in pet ownership has changed my personal experience. They did great work on my little dude for years. Good luck with your pet!
