Reviews

We have been taking our sweet cavapoo here since we got her 5 months ago. They have always treated us so kindly and have gotten us in last minute when needed. The vets are all very knowledgeable and truly care about each and every puppy. We feel so lucky to have found them!

Jaxon was experiencing severe allergies and we were 2 days away from leaving on vacation. When I called his regular vet, they could "not fit him in" despite my leaving for vacation in 2 days. In a panic I called the animal hospital at Desert Ridge who immediately told me that they could fit me in at their sister facility (animal hospital at Grayhawk). The staff at the animal hospital at Grayhawk was amazing (everyone from the receptionists, vet tech, to the vet). Dr. McBroom listened to my concerns and was both patient and knowledgeable. She gave us several options and explained the pros and cons of each one, as well as giving her recommendation. Needless to say i'm so happy I found a caring vet (with great "bedside manner") for Jaxon going forward.

I really like Scottsdale Ranch Animal Hospital. All of their staff is so very nice and professional. They are very reasonably priced and don't try to nickel and dime their patients. I also enjoy their grooming services for our Westie.

We are new to this practice and the whole team has been just great! Dr. Haley is amazing, she has been our vet for a few years and when she moved to this practice it was no question we’d drive a little further. We are happy we made the switch!

Dr. Lohmer is the best vet we have ever seen. She is empathetic and truly cares for our pets like her own. We are so happy to have found her, we wouldn’t go anywhere else.


Dr Trupp and staff were professional and caring. Took time to explain treatment needed without being pushy. We are very happy with the care here



The absolute best veterinary practice in my experience. Since I discovered Horizon Animal Hospital 4 years ago, I never hesitate to drive an hour each way because of how well we are treated here. Several times we have been squeezed in due to last minute issues and every time it’s been a wonderful experience. I never feel like a burden when I call. No matter who answers the phone, they are always kind and ready to answer any question or address any concerns. Making appointments is easy and we are never kept waiting long when we are there for an appointment.
We normally see Dr Patterson who is a total saint and so incredibly kind and patient. Most recently she performed a c-section on my dog that was expecting a singleton puppy. Dr. Patterson (and the techs) did an amazing job and the incision was almost completely healed not even a week later. I have another young dog that has had a multitude of issues and she’s been beyond helpful in getting him the proper care. We’ve seen Dr. Penn and Dr. Emily on occasion and they have also been amazing. We love all of the techs as well. Everyone here is amazing!
The prices are reasonable and I have never felt pressured to have anything done that’s not completely necessary. Keep up the amazing work, Horizon Animal Hospital!

The entire staff is great! They clearly love and value our pets. Dr. Emily and Dr. Wendy are both very caring and concerned about the health of my dog and do everything they can to make it a pleasant visit for all of us!

Dr McBroom was so kind and reassuring. Very different experience for my anxious dog at other more old-school methodology type vets. The lady at the front desk was also so thoughtful and welcoming, ushering us in as soon as there was a lull in the waiting room. I feel like I got the info I needed to best support my dog.

Just transferred to Dr. McBroom. Very impressed with her clinical expertise, communication skills and followup. I also want to commend Mariah, Allison, and Sam who made my pets and I feel welcome and help us transition to Animal Hospital at Grayhawk.

We have been seeing Dr. Trupp ever since we moved to Arizona several years ago and he has been our vet for multiple of our furbabies since then. Even though they are more pricey than some other vets in the area, it is worth every penny for how knowledgeable and thorough they are as well as how amazing and friendly all of the staff here is. Even though we live in Old Town Scottsdale now, we still make the trek to North Scottsdale to take our furbabies here because it is totally worth it.

We love the staff and so do our pets! Dr McCoy and Dr Ferrari are wonderful. I cannot say enough good things about them. They have also been able to get us in quickly if we ever had an issue. Thank you!


Everyone in this office is friendly and caring. We recently moved our dog and services to this vet office. Both Dr. Davis and Dr. Haley are the best! They both take their time with our dog during appointments, get on the floor with them, and take all the time we need to answer our questions. They really care! So glad we found them.

Dr. Courtney Browne is an extraordinary veterinarian. She's the best combination of smart and compassionate. She gave my senior dogs exceptional care during my time in AZ. One of them had special needs and I'm certain she extended his life by at least a year. The entire staff at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital is wonderful - professional and kind.

I’ve needed some time to grieve before being able to write a proper review. Saying goodbye to our little fur ball Boomer was definitely one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do in my adult life. Dr Rice made this unbearable decision much easier, giving us advice leading up to that day and her kind and caring demeanor, was the most passionate understanding person in the room with us. She even took time out of her busy surgery day to be the one who helped us thru saying our goodbyes with lots of love and tears. I will be forever grateful to her.

We had our first appointment today and had an incredible experience. We have an extremely reactive GSD and came to this vet to establish care and talk about some of his behavioral issues. We met with Dr. Lohmer who was SPECTACULAR. I could go on and on about how amazing she is. She was so compassionate and knowledgeable and actively listened to our concerns. She took her time and I felt that both my dog and I were cared for. The staff was so accommodating too and helped to ensure the path was "clear" of other dogs when entering and exiting the facility. I am so thankful for this team and their patience and understanding. Thank you all for what you do!!!

Lisa did a wonderful job grooming Moon (cat). This was our 2nd time and will continue with Pima North Animal Hospital. The staff is really friendly and helpful and both of our cats have been treated super well.

The staff is friendly and the doctors are superb. The cost of service is higher than many other local vets and they change for EVERYTHING. For example, I took my dog there for an exam- the next day I returned for the treatment and a quick check up for a new symptom and was changed two separate exam fees even though the second day exam took less than 10 minutes and I wasn’t even taken back to am exam room. I will continue to use the vet for my high maintenance dog but have taken my other two pets to another vet.
UPDATE!! Literally the day after I posted this, the Doctor called, apologized for the double change (based on our conversation the day prior). I was so impressed that the ACTUAL DOCTOR, not the front staff, personally called to make this right. Apparently, this clinic is listening to the opinion of their clients and that means a lot to me!

Other vet clinics should model their practice after this one! Very flexible, kind, helpful, go out of their way to help. Incredible.


I love this Vet office!!! My pets get the very best care here, and they are on time with their appointments which is huge when you're taking a 30 pound cat in for care. I highly recommend!!!

Hands down the best vet I’ve ever taken a pet too! We feel welcomed every time we’ve been there. You can really tell how much everyone working at Horizon loves animals. The staff always makes a big fuss over our little Sammy and they make a vet visit enjoyable for everyone. We love that they’re our vet and wouldn’t go anywhere else.

I feel Daphne, my dog, is getting the best care possible whether she’s being seen by one of the veterinarians or it’s a vet tech visit. The front office associates are caring and always make us feel welcome. I’ve been through the life cycle of one dog with this veterinary group and now into the 5th year with another dog. The practice has always been available whenever I’ve had a question or concern about my dog’s health. I trust them.

Today was my dog Angus’s first visit with Dr. Walker at Pima North Animal Hospital. He is an older dog, and we had lots of questions about mobility and joint health for him. She was so kind and took time to lay out a comprehensive stepped plan to see what treatments work best for Angus. Also our vet tech, Julia, was awesome with Angus. We are new to the area and so happy that we found this wonderful vet! Highly, highly recommend!

I can't say enough about just how amazing Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital is.
Literally EVERY person who works there. All caring, bright, accommodating, and they have empathy in spades.
You can easily tell each person loves the animals and what they do. The care my dogs have gotten here is unrivaled.
I have been to great vets with other pets of mine in the past, but this business is doing EVERYTHING right. I will never take my pets anywhere else.
Thank you a million times over, Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital.

We trust Pima North Animal Hospital when boarding our pet Maya. The staff is always so caring, warm and attentive to her. The cats are completely away from the dogs and the boarding facility is very clean and the cages large. Highly recommended.


Best Vet in Phoenix for sure! The staff are amazing and very accommodating. They do not rush any appointments and make sure that we understand the current health status of our fur baby by explaining things thoroughly. They deserve more than 5 stars!

We took our new puppy to see Dr. Lohmer. My husband and I were very impressed by her! She gave us good information, answered all our questions, and was so great with our dog too!! We could tell she loves what she does!! Staff was also great, especially Blair!!

I went to get updated shots for my dog. Unfortunately, the experience was not great and they were deceptive with cost. They gave a 2 minute exam that I did not ask for and it cost $94. It is not an exaggeration when I say it was 2 minutes long. Also, they did not mention anything about doing an exam for my dog prior. They charge $10.75 for “Medical Waste” which is the price of one needle that has to be thrown away. My dog is my baby and I will spend whatever money is required for her care. However, I don’t like being deceived and not informed about everything they intend on doing. You can get better care for the same price anywhere else.




We love the entire staff and Dr Rice is especially amazing! They also understand the nuisance of how to care for an English Bulldog which gives me and Theo a lot of confidence. We are lucky we have this team near us!

I've had the pleasure of working under the guidance of Dr. Josh, and I must say, it has been a truly transformative experience. Dr. Josh's pragmatic and innovative approach, coupled with his unwavering commitment to growth, has not only elevated my professional skills but has also had a profound impact on my personal development.
Dr. Josh's dedication to excellence is nothing short of contagious. His constant research and pursuit of the highest standards in medicine have encouraged our team to always question the "why" behind our actions, pushing us to strive for continuous improvement.
One of the most admirable aspects of Dr. Josh's approach is his pragmatism. He encourages us to challenge norms and think critically about each case, fostering an environment of learning and growth. His ability to make sound and rational decisions while remaining flexible and adaptable to unique situations has been instrumental in shaping my approach to both veterinary medicine and life itself.
Moreover, Dr. Josh is not just a fantastic boss but also an inspiring mentor and a genuinely kind person. His willingness to invest time in discussing self-growth with me has been invaluable.
In summary, Dr. Josh is a phenomenal mentor who goes above and beyond to nurture the growth of his team. I am grateful for the opportunity to learn from him and can confidently say that his mentorship has been instrumental in my journey. I would highly recommend Dr. Josh, Dr. Spina, Dr.Brown and Dr. Trupp. They are a wonderful team!

We had a great experience at Scottsdale Ranch Animal Hospital. It was our first time bringing our dog to the vet so we were not sure what to expect. Everyone was kind and welcoming. They were great with our sometimes shy dog and answered all our questions. We saw Dr Kaitlin and would recommend her to anyone looking for a great vet :)

The vet, Dr. Holly Rice is excellent. She has a great manner with our dog. She's very gentle and loving. Dr. Rice is also a great source of information, she gives complete and thoughtful answers to all of our questions. The office staff is also exceptional: friendly and helpful. We've been going here for 7 years and it's always the best experience. Our dogs actually like to go, they get lots of attention and loving.



How do you thank a team and doctor for helping you out at the darkest point in your life??
Dr Sarah Brown is absolutely just one of the nicest and honestly best human beings- I've met. I lost the love of my life- Leo...and her kindness and expertise as well as honesty ...made it more bearable for me.
Thank you to the entire team for the card you sent and the kind words you all added- you'll probably never know how much those little things mean- But I am truly grateful for each and every one of you.
Leo - was the absolute joy and happiness that made me get up every day with a smile. I felt honored to be his Mom- and I will carry him with me forever. The joy he gave to so many people and other animals ..was endless- he touched so many lives❤️
May everyone take a chance and experience this love in their lifetime- for all the pain I would 100% do it all over again, because the joy and memories fill your heart. They were the absolute best 15 years of my life, and I know his journey has only begun- I can't wait to someday see all the other chapters of his book...it's an amazing story🐶
Thank you all again- for everything you do and all the love you give every day!❤️❤️🙏

Love how the staff is friendly, the doctors listen to all concerns and take their time to diagnose and treat our pets. The doctors also follow up diligently to make sure our pets are doing well with on treatment plan.

Bruno stayed for Christmas weekend and when I went to pick him up, he didn't want to leave. He tried to run back in with the techs. I was sent a pic message and he looked very happy. They also returned all his belongings clean and laundered. Recommend 100% and I will be using again when I travel. Thank you so much for taking care of our pup.


We had been going to another vet in town but felt they were being a little dismissive about an on going issue with my dogs paws. So we decided to give Hillside a try. My neighbors dogs go here and their previous dogs as well, and they've always raved about the care here. Well, we were really impressed. Everyone from the two men at the front desk (sorry, I forgot everyones names, I promise to be better), the vet tech and the vet herself were super friendly and thorough. They went above and beyond and we really appreciate the care they provided. It was such a great experience! You (and your pet) won't be disappointed if you go here. Tell them Furgie (the pitbull) sent you. 😉

We were seeing Dr. Beth 25 yrs ago until her retirement with three of our five dogs, they're very compassionate especially when our dogs were put to sleep for old age & one with cancer. Dr. Penn is now our go to vet and is wonderful with our dogs, we have one Lab/mix female at 14 yrs old now, our last baby, until i rescue another. I wouldn't go anywhere else!

Horizon Animal Hospital was able to get our new six month old rescue pup in for treatment of worms the same morning that we saw evidence. He is extremely fearful of everything but Horizon staff made him more comfortable with their patience and loving attitude towards him. We were impressed with the level of care that we received for our little Smokey, and we really appreciated the follow-up phone call to see how he was doing the next day. We are happy to say Horizon animal Hospital is our new vet, we highly recommend them!

This place should have zero stars. They are rude, not at all compassionate & should be last on your list when choosing. Our dog is dying & when we called them for help it was all about the dollar. After the family has used them for years & years we were told money up front for the euthanasia! Talk about hard hearted. They wouldn’t even give her something so she wouldn’t suffer for the next 2 days. We called horizon animal hospital & though we had never used them they gave us suggestions, comfort & were way more reasonable.
Save yourself some heartache & go to a place that cares more about your fur baby & less about lining their pockets.

I don’t normally write reviews unless I strongly feel the need. This vet clinic was great. I am new to the state and did not have a home vet for my cats. I also had a general concern for my cats before even being a patient that they were able to talk about with me over the phone. I really appreciated that. I then set up an appointment for general wellness and the two girls I had today were so sweet and helpful, it genuinely made me enjoy my time and my cats felt very comfortable. Doctor McBroom and Alexis sat on the floor with them while they did the exam/checkup which made my cats feel more at ease, even with noise coming from other rooms. My Siamese is very skeptical of other people and he even rubbed up on Doctor McBroom which truly shows how comfortable he felt with them on the floor. The girls were very friendly and funny which felt like a breath of fresh air compared to other vets I’ve had. Prices are what you expect for a general checkup, about $75 per cat. Great and genuine advice was offered, and I am glad to have a secure point of contact for all my pets’ needs. Previous vets that I’ve had would focus more on money/selling products and quick in and out time. Highly recommend Grayhawk


Dr Patterson was very responsive and called me right back when I was having trouble with my senior pet. The one thing that I appreciate the most about Horizon is their responsiveness.Tally was able to be a Lady Bug on Halloween!


We had an emergency with our new rescue puppy Dakota. We live in Strawberry, Arizona. Our three month old puppy ingested what we feared was mouse poison. We called poison control, and the outlook was not good. We drove 75 miles to Horizon Amimal Hospital. Jennifer met us at the door and ushered us in even though they were booked solid, they made room for us. Our puppy received excellent care in our time of need! When we were desperate for help they stepped up and did everything they could to help us. They treated Dakota as if she were their own puppy. Dr. Emily was wonderful and all the staff was amazing! We were so happy with the outcome we decided to make them our permanent veterinarian. We will gladly drive the extra distance to have such excellent care for our puppy. Five stars is not enough for the wonderful service we received! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Dakota is doing wonderfully thanks to you.

This veterinary hospital is one of the best I've ever taken my pet to. They love your pet almost as much as you do.

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Brown and the North Scottsdale Animal Hospital. I moved to AZ in 2020 and established care for my sweet Tori here based off good reviews on google. We had a great 2 years here, and unfortunately Tori developed a rare nasopharyngeal lymphoma. Losing her was one of the hardest things I have ever been through, and through it all, the staff of North Scottsdale Animal Hospital were compassionate, they cared about Tori and even called me to check in on her while we were in the process of seeing an oncology specialist for workup, and when the time came to put my sweet kitty to sleep, Dr. Brown made sure to clear time for me to bring her in when it worked best for me. While this location is far from the cheapest in the valley, I consider my pets to be family members, and would rather spend the extra money to make sure they receive the best care.


Horizon Animal Hospital has literally been a savior for us. My dog was having a severe medical issue that two previous veterinarians were unable to diagnose. After burning crucial time and almost losing our sick pup, we made our way to Horizon. Horizon had the technology to quickly diagnose my dog and Dr. Penn immediately conducted surgery which saved my dog’s life. Hospital hours are great, staff goes way above and beyond and the Doctors are second to none. I will recommend Horizon Animal Hospital any chance I get. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!



Dr. Rosonke found his calling in life working with animals. He deserves a 10 star review. I’ve had cats and dogs all my life and he is the best vet I’ve had the pleasure working with. I tried 7 different vets trying to figure out what was wrong with my 3 year old kitty and he figured it out and saved her life and saved us a fortune in one visit. I could write an essay on how good he is with animals and how amazing the staff is but I want to keep this short and sweet and hopefully help someone who needs insight on this clinic. I consider myself lucky to have my dogs and cats under their care. They are truly outstanding!



Dr. Rosonke has been our vet for years. He has always been so nice and just amazing with our dogs. We would never take our pets elsewhere.
Thank you Doc and Staff!!
Thank you Doc and Staff!!





If I could give Hillside Animal Hospital and their team a thousand stars out of 5 I would!! I was going to Hillside for my pug Kiki for a little bit, but this vet really stood out me after my little Pomeranian Bear got bit by a rattlesnake. Bear was extremely close to losing his life because of this bite, and of course extremely at risk of losing his leg. I knew that I had to take Bear into Hillside as soon as he started to rapidly decline after his night in the ER. ( would not eat, would not drink water, walk, respond to us, go to the bathroom, etc...) Hillside took action the minute I called them and told them what was going on. Bear looked AWFUL the first day he went into Hillside, his leg was completely black and he was running a fever along with fighting a large infection on his leg. My husband and I were so traumatized with the experience, but the receptionists and especially Mickayla the vet tech put our hearts at ease the first day we had to leave him there. Dr. Kate Radosevich was extremely kind and informative throughout that first day; she would call and update me every second that something new came up and kept me up to date on everything that Bear was going through. They gave us everything we needed to get started on Bear's recovery process, along with all the incredible treatments they did on Bear to make him do an absolute 180 in his attitude and health (even just in that first day! they got him to eat and go to the bathroom hours from when we dropped him off!!) The following appointments with Dr. Nicola Council were just as extraordinary, they are SO attentive and out-of-this world. Bear is a rescue who had no socialization a majority of his life, he is a very nervous and scared dog; I knew I did the right thing when it was obvious he LOVED these people. When I tell you that they have singlehandedly nurtured him back to health and completely healed his leg in as little as 7 DAYS, I would not have believed you before I experienced it first hand.
Every single person Bear had an interaction with was an absolute blessing, ESPECIALLY Mickayla the vet tech who was there EVERY appointment to help Bear, Dr. Kate, and Dr. Council. It is so obvious that everyone at Hillside Animal Hospital is doing this because they love the animals they treat. PLEASE take your animals here if you need a primary vet or any treatment at all for your loved ones, it is the best thing you can do for your furbabies.
I will attach pictures of how his journey began versus how he was today leaving Hillside Animal Hospital, it's an absolute miracle. I can't recommend Hillside Animal Hospital and their entire team enough.

I was able to get a new patient appointment quickly and the staff was very friendly. The doctor was realistic with me about my dog’s treatment and wasn’t just trying to get money out of me which i appreciate. Very thorough exam and i feel confident with the care we were given. Excited to continue care here!

Absolute worst. Only thing this place is good for is giving you a printout of the cost of procedures. I stuck with them for two years to my dogs detriment. They did not take the time to talk to me about possibilities related to my dog’s recurring condition, just told me colitis, stress caused. Prescribed antibiotics even though there was no evidence of a bacterial infection, checked for parasites, even though another vet in the same clinic said older dogs almost never have parasites, wanted blood test done every 6 weeks to update ?? Really? I have not one good thing to say except the front office staff was polite. Find somewhere else. Im glad I decided to change clinics and found an amazing vet who listens to me, answers my questions, and gives me all my options.



The Animal Hospital at Greyhawk was wonderful.
They took the time to explain everything about the procedure and we're very kind and caring.
This location is far, but they were able to fit me in the same day and I couldn't be more grateful. If you need an ultrasound for your animal, I highly recommend this place.

Brought my dog here after they were recommended by a friend. We drove over 30 minutes for our appointments, but it was worth getting my shepherd mix's fistula's under control (thanks, Dr. Starr!). The office is friendly, organized, and willing to work with you to provide the best and most economical path forward. Now that we have a long term solution, we've decided to move vets to somewhere closer to home.

We had laparoscopic spaying performed for our dog here and it was a very good experience. We were provided with an estimate by email and schedule the procedure a week later and the technicians were very thorough in explaining everything and Dr Rosonke did an exam and the surgery in the same day. He phoned us after it was done to tell us how it went. Our dog is recovering nicely and the price was exactly as estimated. Everyone at the office is friendly, competent and helpful.

We just moved to the area and needed a new vet for my dog, Ziggy. The staff was incredibly enthusiastic and made my shy dog feel right at home! They made sure we were ready for our trip home, giving us lots of suggestions and tips for travel! Couldn’t recommend more!




I have been with this vet and team for 11 years. They are the best most caring team and they alway call to followup after the appointment. Anytime I have had scares with my dogs they were able to get me in without a long wait. I'm thankful to have them care for my fur puppies.


Always a pleasure to be greeted by the friendly staff. The techs are well trained and very knowledgeable. The vets handle my dog with great care and know when something doesn’t look right. The whole office is outstanding.

Years ago now, as a young person fresh out of college and a cross country move I brought my 3 year old cat to Hillside for a second opinion on a full mouth tooth extraction. I was concerned my youngest cat would go her whole life without teeth.
I had the pleasure of meeting Dr Nicola Council at that time and she reassured me that my cat did not need all her teeth removed, but recommended a dental cleaning which I immediately booked.
As a new resident in Arizona, my new full time job was working in animal rescue. I received news that the rescue was recommending a puppy I was fostering be put to sleep. I again came to Hillside for a second opinion and this time I saw Dr Brad Rosonke. He took time to understand this puppy's complex medical history and reassured me that she was going to get better with time and TLC. And she did.
After this I brought my animals to Hillside religiously. I worked at other veterinary hospitals, but I would never bring my own pets or my foster pets there. Eventually, I accepted a position at their office and I worked for nearly three years with these wonderful vets. I can not say enough great things about the veterinary staff here. I've moved on to helping in human medicine now, but the time I spent as an employee at Hillside only strengthened my belief that they are the best place to bring your pets for care.
The prices here are on the higher side, but it's well worth it for the genuine care you receive, not to mention the top of the line veterinary equipment and surgical options they offer. Dr. Council is so talented and takes her time explaining everything she does during the exam. When my kids come in, she offers to show them what she's doing and welcomes so many questions with patience and grace. There is truly no better place to be with a sick or healthy animal, than Hillside.

Dr. Council is so talented and takes her time explaining everything she does during the exam. When my kids come in, she offers to show them what she's doing and welcomes so many questions with patience and grace. There is truly no better place to be with a sick or healthy animal, than Hillside.


I have had a few visits with at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital and I couldn’t be happier with how they have communicated with me and listened to my concerns and worked well with my reactive pups. We have seen two separate doctors and received wonderful care. I live about 30 minutes away but it is well worth the drive.


We trust SRAH with all of our fur babies. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Dr. Nick is excellent with handling our cats during examination. Appreciate his honest advice and candid discussion on health decisions for them.


Dr. Rosonke has been extremely patient and loving to my Rottweiler Jackson. I greatly appreciate the love and compassionate that this clinic has showed to my boy over the past month, while he gets through a frustrating situation. The front staff is always in good spirits, and can always get me in timely. Gayle, the vet tech, who guided me through Jackson’s surgery was so sweet and helpful to put me at ease but more importantly, she was calming to my dog. I know every concern and question I have will be addressed and truly feel they care for my boy. Thank you to the staff and Dr. Rosonke for the love you give Jackson.


We were referred by a nearby animal hospital and I thought it was a little far but my son insisted we go here for our sick doggie and it was a very good decision. The tech was very kind and compassionate and our dog was very comfortable with him. The Dr was really nice and very accommodating to our lack of funds. He helped us stay in our price range by narrowing down the expenses to the most important treatments for getting our guy back to his old self and let us know the breakdown before anything was started which I appreciate greatly. I'm very happy with the way we were treated and especially happy that our dog was comfortable and taken care of. Rocky is all better now and my son feels relieved to have gotten him to see a doctor. These people are the best and we will be returning customers in the future. Thank you all for your kindness.


I had to bring my baby in because she wasn't feeling well. They squeezed us in at the end of the day. The staff were all very welcoming and sweet. Dr. K was great with my little girl. She was put on some medication, they gave her her first dose for me at the office, and I swear by the time we got home I could tell she was feeling better. Very thankful for everyone at this office. We will definitely be coming back for her well checks in the future.

I’m new to the Scottsdale area and have a cat, Jack, with some health issues so finding a reliable vet was important to me. I’m so happy I found McDowell Mountain Animal Hospital! I went to take my cat for a standard routine visit and to also check out this place out to see if they were any good - they beat my expectations! After the 1st visit I had to go back to make sure that Jack’s treatment was going well. On both of my visits, the vets took time out of their day to talk to me and really answer my questions (I usually have a lot lol), and ensure that I was leaving there more knowledgeable about my cat’s health than before. I know that I’m getting exceptional care for my animals and that they really care about them! They love what they do, and it shows. I feel as though my cats are in amazing hands here, and I trust them already!



Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital has taken such good care of our cats and dog. They are always so kind to our pets, and they have been willing to answer any questions we have. My pets are actually calm and happy when they leave, which never happened at my old vet. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for the best care for their pets.


This vet is wonderful! My family members have used them for years and been very happy. So, when I moved to AZ during the pandemic, I took my corgi here. I've used them now for a checkup, vaccinations, teeth cleaning and grooming and all experiences have been great. Brenda is always super nice and helpful, and Michelle does a wonderful job grooming. Dr. Nick did a great job on the dental work and called me several times during the procedure to keep me updated. I really appreciated this as it was the first dental cleaning for my pet, and I was a bit nervous. I can tell they really care about the animals, and their prices are reasonable. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a vet.


Absolutely fantastic! Yesterday when I went in I thought something was stuck in my 9 month old puppy's digestive tract. I was extremely worried as he had a hard time going to the bathroom for 3 days and even when he did go it was not solid or healthy. When I went in everyone was very kind and extremely helpful. I did have to wait about 15 minutes in the room but when the Dr came in she asked me some questions and said since he's still eating has no pain when I press on his stomach and hasn't thrown up I would not worry. I then said I would still like to figure out what's wrong and at that point she suggested a stool sample. For those of you interested in cost, the check up was about 50 and the medication was 40. The stool sample was another 80. The doctor also offered X-rays but that would have been quite a bit of money and when I said no, there was no judgement whatsoever. All around everyone was extremely polite and understanding as well as helpful and accommodating. I would highly recommend going and if you do and see a black lab named Pepper please come up and say hi! I hoped this helped!




This was my first time here with my new Aussie puppy, Maizie. Everyone was very friendly and paid a lot of attention to her (she is a cute puppy)! Dr. Kitchen answered all of the questions I had (and I had many) about going forward with the specific type of shots I had been told by the breeder were necessary for Aussies and the anesthesia used when she is spayed, which I was also told was a very specific type for Aussies. She was also very informative about several things I had not been told, also specific to the breed. I will be using Dr. Kitchen's office going forward and may transfer care of another of my dogs to them.

I've been taking my dogs to Scottsdale Ranch Animal Hospital for the past 30 years. They take exceptional care to make sure I am well informed on my pets needs and condition. They are a vet hospital that you can trust to provide you with the best pet care possible.


Thank you for making Brisby’s physical appointment easy and safe for me and comfortable for him. The way you communicated with me in my car when I arrived, the Dr. calling me with findings and questions during his exam, the ease of paying on the phone, and your handling of him during the process were all professional and comfortable for both of us.


Amazing hospital. My little fur baby is so happy to come here. There grooming is affordable and they do a great job. The vet is very nice. The location is clean. They also put on a cute little bow on my kitty cat.


Our pup is a little challenging because of anxiety around new people, so we have been searching for a Vet Service that can care for her with patience and understanding. From the Front Desk to the Tech to the Vet - everyone was completely understanding of her 'personality' and by the time we left after her first visit, she wasn't ven shaking. I think we have found a new "Pup Care World" in this Clinic <3


From the moment I picked up the phone to make a new patient appointment with Dr. Josh, I knew we were going to be happy! And sure enough, Dr. Josh & his team are wonderful. They give you the time your pet needs, did NOT try to sell me anything my Charlie didn't need. Actually, it was so refreshing to hear from a vet that "our best treatment right now, is no treatment" - let Charlie recover and not pump him full of stuff. SO fantastic! Thank you, Thank you for being awesome!
