Dr Freidman has so much compassion for animals. Always so kind to me and helped through all kinds of health issues with my dog. Always appreciate his approach.

Highly unprofessional; refused to provide labwork documentation after it was completed to my dog's ophthalmologist and laughed at me when I asked for it. In the years that he looked after my dog, he was consistently short, dismissive, and condescending, and this was the last straw that triggered me to take my dog's care to another vet.

I never leave reviews but have been coming here for nearly 2 years now. Dr. Freidman and his staff are great people to work with and they truly care about the pets they work with. Highly recommended.

I feel like my Newf Penny receives better care than I do! If you want a clinic that has a "community" feel, with a vet that you can trust, then this is it. It doesn't feel like you're in a conveyor belt as most larger practices tend to have. You can tell that Dr. Howard cares more about the animal than your feelings, and he has a comforting presence that the animals feel. It's great!

We love Dr. Freidman and the entire team at Cougar Mountain Vet! You can tell everyone here truly cares about the health of visiting pets, and love their flexibility in getting us in for scheduling purposes and last minute emergencies. This team is a true gem!

I cannot recommend this clinic and Dr. Friedman enough! When my partner and I moved to Sammamish and adopted a kitten, we were looking for a really good vet to get our kitten the best possible care. We got him neutered, vaccinated, and all that, and they took such great care of our cat and it seemed that both our cat and us, had a great experience and decided 3 years ago, this will be our new vet. A few days ago, our cat started getting extremely sick so I called, and they immediately setup an appointment for the next day. I was nervous because everytime I've taken pets to the vet, they're absolutely terrified of going and that can be a pain in itself, but our cat seemed to actually like going there. As soon as we walked in, he was calm and relaxed, and seemed very comfortable during the exam when he's normally terrified of other people and tries to run away from them - so I think that says something! Dr. Friedman was extremely helpful and quick with providing his opinions, treatment plan, and further options if he got worse. He was honest and I never once felt like anyone tried to upsell me on things I didn’t actually need. Unfortunately, our cat got worse and we had to take him to the animal ER. I called to update him and he was very sincere and provided me with information that helped the animal hospital treat our cat more efficiently and effectively, and had his x-rays emailed to me so I can provide them to the ER since it was shortly after closing. Unfortunately, we're still helping our cat get through this, but throughout this whole experience, Dr. Friedman has shown an immense amount of sincere compassion, knowledge, and has gone above and beyond, as well as helped in ways that other vets haven't and I greatly appreciate it as it has lessened the anxiety we've had during this. As long as they're still practicing and I'm in WA, we will always be going here - whether it be emergencies or wellness visits/vaccinations. With family pets in the past, it can be difficult to find a vet that REALLY cares about the pet and providing the best care possible, doesn't try to upsell you on foods or other things the pet doesn't actually need, or is really involved after the visit, but this place strives to do right for both the pets and the owners. If you're looking for a veterinarian, I cannot recommend this place more!

If I could give 0 stars I would. When we tried to tell the vet what had been going on with our kitty, we were verbally dismissed. He would not even take the time to listen to had already been tried and tested that was proven to be unsuccessful. I would not trust this man with a pet rock. 5 stars for unprofessionalism.

Dr Howard is thorough and sweet. His prices are reasonable. I was really nervous finding a new vet when I moved to Washington but they made me feel at home. I trust them completely. This means a lot considering I'm in the human medical field and overthink everything

Ok, hands down, Dr. Howard Friedman and his staff are the best vets I've ever been to! Only wish I had found them sooner. Their kind, compassionate, selfless and expert care is there when you really need it. They patiently take the time to explain everything in detail about your pet's health, test results, medications and how to care for your pet at home. Questions are welcomed. They encourage you to call them any time you have questions or concerns and will call you as a follow-up the next day. Their rates are surprisingly reasonable, especially for the level of care you get. This place definitely isn't your average cookie cutter chain vet clinic. I'd describe it as a home town local veterinary practice that loves what they've been doing in that location for 20 years. Dr. Howard's passion and commitment to his practice will keep me coming back!
