You lost me there and the rest of my people and dogs. Sorry we I'll never get to spend a lot of money until we learn which one of you are good. Greedy excuses aren't deserve to take care for my love ones to begin with. If you are one of the vets here. Rise up for yourself. Be a good vet for your neighborhood.

They give accurate estimates with a high/low range & haven't exceeded it once. Every staff member loves animals and it shows. They care. It's not about getting every penny they possibly can. They are knowledgeable, transparent & excellent in communicating. I find the staff pleasant and engaging, genuinely kind. Our babies love going here, and we are happy to have such a wonderful place to take them for their needs. It is honestly, repeatedly the best place I've ever taken my little loves. Street parking, never had to park more than a block away. Pricing is fair. I'd recommend this vet office to anyone and everyone.

Alberta Veterinary has been my vet since I relocated to Portland three years ago. They've done a…read moreterrific job keeping my eldery Bichon alive and thriving. I couldn't be happier with their care. I'm a bit amazed by those reviews that claim higher prices than expected. For example, Ashtyn C didn't get a written quote for "teeth cleaning?" Really? Does this person have any idea what can be involved with any kind of dental work for a dog? It's likely to include general anaesthesia if it's a serious cleaning. And was it "just a cleaning?" Somehow I doubt that. By the way, a mouth is a mouth. It doesn't matter if your dog is a chihuahua or a great dane, the same costs apply. In fact, chihuahuas are prone to serious and difficult dental issues due to their small mouths and tiny jaws. I've never even had a Chihuahua as an animal companion and even I know that. There's a lot about Ashtyn C's review that doesn't pass the smell test -- including his ignorance about dogs and how veterinary services are priced and shared with consumers. Didn't like the price? Then don't sign the consent form for care. I have never been provided with a significant service by Alberta Veterinary without knowing -- up front -- how much every aspect of that service would cost or likely cost and the low and high limit of the possible bill. I suppose I should give them "special credit for this," but this is standard procedure for ALL VETS. Like every other vet -- primary care or emergency -- they ITEMIZE the quote for you, providing low and high parameters and the time period for which that quote is VALID. They will then go over every aspect of service that you have questions on. I have always been given the opportunity to decide what was an essential part of the service being planned. I have always known what the service would cost. I have never been "surprised" by them. And, let's see, Hi C claimed that staff tackled and laid on top of his dog? Now, why would that be? Why would they be afraid? What exact behavior was your dog exhibiting? Was it a danger to the staff? One would assume so. Dogs can be dangerous. And Hi C was right there and didn't stop them and say, "Let us leave and plan to come back later. Maybe he needs to be sedated." I'm sure that if Hi C had expressed those concerns and sentiments, they would have accommodated their requiest. Hi C's probably the kind of dog owner who doesn't understand why they're supposed to pick up their dog's crap when out on a walk. No doubt, the world revolves around Hi C's sense of entitlement. Newsflash: my dog visits Alberta Veterinary at least once a month for a tech visit. He has never left traumatized. Then again, he's well behaved and well socialized. Maybe Hi C needs to be a little less "Hi" and a little more sensible about the behavior of their pet. Too many people these days don't use their heads, don't plan ahead, or don't plan at all. Or they blame others for their own shortcomings like not training and managing their animal companions well. Vet care is expensive. I'm low-income myself and sympathize with anyone struggling to afford vet care and sometimes having to make painful choices about what care is essential, what is crucial to my dog's quality of life, and what I can afford. If you're a pet owner who can't financially manage "surprises," then make sure you're not "surprised." Get a written quote, look into financing options, and/or see about accessing care for low-income pet owners through charitable organizations. Alberta Vet has never advertised itself as a "low cost" or "charity care" vet clinic so don't expect them to behave as one. Regardless, I have always found their costs for service highly competitive, if not fairly low. Moreover, they've ALWAYS provided me a written estimate up front for any significant care before getting my approval to procede. That includes the cost of a simple exam, a vet tech visit for monthly services, to surgery. They also do a very good job ensuring security for all patients and being aware when some patients are "reactive." That includes asking other people and their pets to vacate common areas when a reactive and potentially dangrous animal is going to be coming through.

We started off on a good foot with Dr. Pavlich. Unfortunately our experience deteriorated from…read morethere. Dr. Pavlich ordered an echocardiogram for my dog and I was called with the results by some unknown person who recommended a medication but didn't know how the medication worked. I called and asked to speak with the ordering vet to discuss the echocardiogram because, as a physician, I had many questions before starting my pet on a medication about which my basic questions could not be answered. I was called back the next day by a person named Dallas who acted as though my request was a great imposition and that a vet might be willing to speak with me. Dallas emailed me the next day to inform me that another unknown vet was willing to talk with me by phone, but it would be an additional fee to discuss the results of the already expensive echocardiogram that was ordered by Dr. Pavlich. I called the clinic and spoke again with Dallas. When I expressed that I was unhappy that I was being charged an additional fee to discuss the test results he actually hung up the phone on me. If I treated my patients like this I would not only be out of business, but would be reported to the medical board. Extremely rude and unprofessional behavior. Needless to say, we will be finding veterinary care from a vet that actually cares. My recommendation is to stay as far away from this clinic as possible.

I really hate to leave this review, but I think our experience needs to be shared publicly so…read moreothers don't have to go through this. TL;DR - Our dog was misdiagnosed by one of the doctors at Brooklyn Yard, which led to a cancerous tumor growing for months. It was not responsive to any kind of treatment by the time she was properly diagnosed, and my sweet girl has since passed. I discovered a new lump on my dog in early December, and the doctor did a fine needle aspiration. Instead of sending it to a pathologist, she assumed it was a lipoma given my dog's history and the fact she couldn't see any "cellular activity." This led countless back and forth visits to Brooklyn Yard, and their urgent care, Spruce, along with thousands spent in testing and imaging. For months, they led us in circles, insistent it wasn't cancer, despite my poor girl presenting so many symptoms that I now know are common for mast cell tumors. All it took to properly diagnose my dog was another fine needle aspiration, which a specialist sent to a pathologist. This is what Brooklyn Yard should have done to begin with. By this point, though, her tumor was too large and complex for surgery, and treatments like palladia and chemo were not effective. Also, when Brooklyn Yard first received the updated medical records and diagnosis from our specialist, their team called us, not to apologize or offer support, but to tell me they were canceling my dog's upcoming dental cleaning. They have yet to reach out since her passing last month. I am absolutely devastated and can't help but think how different things could have been if we hadn't put so much trust in the doctors at Brooklyn Yard. I miss my girl so much and will never be able to trust another animal in their care.
