We have three dogs (2 German shepherds, 1 Yorkie) and visit this vet and groomer frequently. The entire staff is very knowledgeable and always willing to answer any questions we have. They are very accommodating and always willing to squeeze us in for an appointment. Candice the groomer is GREAT! The dogs are always happy to see her and look/smell amazing when she is done with them! If I was able to give this business more than five stars I definitely would! Thanks for always being there MV vet and Candice! -Kurt, Katie, Ted, Avery and Sadie.

So this review is my experience at meadow vista vet and while the doctors and back office staff have most always been helpful I've always experienced rude and self important behavior from the front office woman. Now to be honest it's been going on for most of the three years we've brought our 3 animals to be cared for but I never lodged a complaint thinking well maybe next time. A few weeks ago we called at 4:15 as our 13 yr old golden retriever was convulsing and trembling and she told me we're closing soon take him to loomis basin vet. When arriving at loomis basin we were met in the parking lot by staff with a gurney and compassion, the difference was palpable we were well taken care of and is when we decided to leave mv vet regardless of it being 5 minutes from our house. They informed us our boy was dying.. .. being fed up with the lack of courtesy and unkind behavior and language we decided we will be taking our pets elsewhere. I say this for two reasons, first the front office is the face of the business and after speaking with others who experienced the same behavior we are moving on.. when I came back to get some medicine and all our pets records today for the last time she was so nice, and it just begs the question why not always treat people that way it will make patients feel good and you as well for brightening up someone else's day. I hope she thinks about the power she has to turn around the sometimes crushing trips to the vet with our beloved furry family members.

RUN ! ! ! DON'T WALK away from this place. My dog was established there and last appointment was June 13, 2023. My dog is prone to issues with her ear and they informed me that due to my dog not being seen in 6 monhts. I contacted the office on Decemebr 11, 2023 (less than 6 months) and was informed that I would need to bring my dog in for an exam, they are all about the bottom line and not the well being of the animal ever since they turned corporate. The lady (Natalie) was extremely rude and defensive on the phone when I called them out on the changing of stories that they told both my wife and I they got even more defensive and I told them to go ahead anc cancel us as clients. Considering we used to drive an hour as they were highly recomneded from multiple individuals. The service has been sub par at best. I recall a time being in the office and a customer was irate that they charged double now from when it was a private practice. The doctor called her to the back room and explained how the practive was sold and they need to adjust the pricing due to them being corporate. They would make an exception this one time for them and moving forward the pricing will be the pricing. Good Luck to you and your pet if you choose to do business here.

I absolutely love them here! I have an overly rambunctious, excitable lab and they are nothing but kind, understanding, and helpful! I will absolutely continue taking my animals here for care! Thank you!

Absolutely WORST Vet and staff. So stupid and NOT empathetic. I have seen other poor ratings they have removed that truly represent this clinic.My cat was over 23y old, and the end of her life, I asked to see her prior to them drugging her to say good-bye. THEY DID NOT. This was outrageous! They were cruel and staff said she did not seem well and asked if I wanted to give her medication prior to euthanizing. WHY WOULD I DO THAT? How stupid. Top it off, it was not even the box I requested for her ashes.My dog has not had any problems with other vets. This one was the closest, and my dog was very protective and felt threatened.They did not even give her all the shots, because they forgot to order.Choose a different vet. Disorganized, uncaring, judgmental and not intuitive.Other cat, over 20 and they wanted to pull his teeth out because they were crooked. Tell me the logic in causing pain to a pet that is extremely elder and will pass probably in 1-2y.

Came in with a health concern about our dog and basically got told she needs her teeth cleaned and was told that about 6 times during our visit; very pushy. Oh, and we should check her heart first before doing the cleaning $599.50; Ya let me drop close to $1,487 while I'm concerned about 2 different health issues that don't have anything to do with her teeth. Her eyes are so gunky and she didn't even show concern or try to clean them for us. Won't be going back.

We love Meadow Vista Veterinary! We love Dr. Joe, and he handles our dog with compassion. Our dog is not very easily handled at times. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is that I hope that I would like to see the clinic with a doctor with wholistic approach with herbs and other naturopathic treatments. But other than that, I would not go anywhere because everyone is so nice at the office!

We have been taking our dogs to Meadow Vista Veterinary clinic since we moved here over 11 yrs ago. They have always been welcoming, pleasant and professional, doctors , technicians and front office staff alike. They have been very accommodating with appointments and have given our dogs the best of care. I would recommend them to any animal owners. They have even come to our residents when we were unable to get one of our pets in.

My dogs love the vets and techs here. My dog had surgery last week. Techs have been great with his laser appointments.

Office staff very friendly, courteous and professional. Dr was a little to eager to “sell” extra maintenance meds, etc but overall loved the approach to treatments for condition we were there for.

I haven't had. The best experiences at most vet clinics but this place is by far the most amazing one I've been at. I feel so safe taking my baby Minnie here! They are not only understanding of my budget but they love Minnie and Minnie loves them. Tatiana is an amazing vet and I am stoked to have her as my vet! ?
