    Showed up at 4:10 for my 4pm appointment. I called ahead and was told if I showed up by 4:10 that they would take my dog. They instead turned my dog away and rescheduled me for a different day with no offer of compensation. We made the commute from tacoma and sat on 20+ minutes of traffic, made it according to the time they quoted me at, and still had my dog turned away. I was told the manager, Sara, will call me, but im not too sure if I can trust their word at this point. They seem to be more interested in charging money than actually helping dogs. The appointment was for a 1 year physical that they demanded because my dog needs a cytalpoint injection (for food/seasonal allergies) although shes had these ongoing issues for the duration of her 10 year life and this is FAR from their first visit with her. Highly reccomend finding a different vet

    I took him to Purdy vet and after running blood tests all looked normal, and nothing showed on the X-ray.

    I've been bringing my animals to Evergreen for about two years. I'm very satisfied. The vets and…read morestaff provide individualized care to each animal to fit their needs/comfort and within the family's budget. The office has been able to squeeze in established patients on busy days when urgent matters arise. Still providing the personalized care plans when busy. The office ladies (Amanda, Sarah and anyone else I've missed) are kind, caring and attentive. The vet techs have a kind/loving touch, soothing even the most scared animal. I'm thankful for each Veterinarian. Each Dr I've had the pleasure of interacting with has been kind, gentle, attentive, and thorough. Highly recommend!

    Well.. after reading some of the above reviews I see I am not the only person who had a horrible…read moreexperience with this vet's front desk staff. So unbelievably rude and just ridiculous. Just... the worst! SO RUDE!!! I had an appointment with the very capable Dr Hankwitz. I am familiar with her and like her quite a lot. She is an excellent vet. Here is the problem. The office staff. The ridiculous manner in which I was dealt with... was inexcusable. I had an appointment booked and unfortunately, we had an emergency and I had to cancel. I do not do this very often anywhere really.. but this was an exception. I had to cancel. When I did, the person I had the misfortune of speaking with was just so incredibly rude. I literally couldn't believe it. She was nasty. She was rude. She was argumentative and sounded troubled. I'm sure she is troubled. I have never had an interaction like this before. LOL I couldn't believe it. Sadly, I cannot recommend visiting this office simply because ... well you will be forced to speak with the most ignorant, rude, unbalanced office person. I don't know if it was the large woman in front, or the dark haired woman off to the side.. but .. whichever person interacted with me was pretty troubled and extremely caustic and just omg so damn rude. Hankwitz is an OK vet.. I like her. But I won't ever go back to this office and sorry Dr. Hankwitz, but none of the ladies I hang with will either. Your receptionist that schedules needs a little couch time. She was angry, she was rude, she was just the worst! Just, the WORST! I give her a -99 out of 10. *(math was hard for me, sorry) I can't recommend your office because of this nightmare of a receptionist/or possibly back office scheduling person. WHO EEE she was horrible. So, steer clear of this spot. There are many veterinarians who you can visit that have normal front office personnel. Just... ahahahah the WORST person, I believe I have ever dealt with.. in any office situation anywhere. Oh my, goodness. Horrible experience.

    We haven't been super happy with our vet of 5+ years, so we decided to give Soundview a try based…read moreon Yelp reviews. I'm glad we did. We had a much better experience. My cat has been having skin issues and I felt like they were much more at ease handling him. They gave us a prescription to give to him before his next visit so that he's able to relax. Nice people, thorough vet exam, and they even checked in on him later in the week.

    I've been bringing my cat here for her care since last year, her spay went well and we really loved…read morethe care our kitty got. We booked for her annual wellness and vaccines and the team told my husband if we were any later than 5 minutes late we would need to reschedule entirely, the willingness to turn my pet away was concerning considering we come from Puyallup to use this clinic and have to take a day from work because they are only open during the week. My husband made it right on time, it took 10 minutes to get back into a room, and him and my cat were on their way by 10:30 WITH shots, I was told my cat was seen for less than 5 minutes, and its extremely disappointing to think we were charged as highly as we were for what my husband described as a 2 minute once over. We didn't get an answer or investigation on why her leg was tender. I requested an invoice and was shocked to find how much it cost compared to what I was told took place. It's a massive bummer to have to make this but the response I received from the team suggests notes were made on her profile that did not reflect the reality of her visit, and I feel we are being swindled out of quality care for my animal. only received a response after leaving a review and there is a massive lack of accountability from the leadership here, defensiveness to valid concerns and more care put into being ensuring my animals medical records reflected my complaints then her actual care. Take your pets anywhere else if you value your time and their care.
