[[HIGHLIGHT]]The Pet Wellness Center off Dove Valley in Phoenix is nothing short of extraordinary, and Dr. Stinnett is an absolute gem.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We've known for years how wonderful this place is, they've cared for several of our dogs over time, but this visit was especially meaningful and unforgettable. We brought in our 15-year-old, three-legged, amazing boy Jake after one of the scariest mornings we've ever experienced. He woke up unable to walk, unable to see, and in severe pain. He had also experienced a seizure earlier, and given his age and sudden decline, we were truly afraid this might be the day we had to say goodbye. Dr. Stinnett took the time to give Jake a thorough, thoughtful exam, ran blood work, and, most importantly, treated him with compassion, confidence, and care. She knew, even when we were unsure, that this was not Jake's time. While the exact cause of his episode wasn't fully clear, Dr. Stinnett was confident that Jake still had good life ahead of him and she was absolutely right. Just four days later, Jake was back to his normal self. Seeing him walking, seeing, and acting like our happy boy again felt nothing short of miraculous. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The entire team at The Pet Wellness Center truly cares for your pets as if they were their own family.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] That kind of genuine compassion is rare, and it means everything when you're facing one of the hardest moments as a pet parent. We highly--HIGHLY--recommend The Pet Wellness Center and Dr. Stinnett. You will immediately see that this is a special place filled with people who truly love what they do. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Thank you, Dr. Stinnett and the entire staff, for giving us more time with our beloved Jake.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will be forever grateful. read more

The Pet Wellness Center - Veterinarians Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I took my senior pup to establish care at this vet since we live very close and I also wanted them to check a small mass that he has growing on his head. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The doctor was very nice and recommended not doing a biopsy but to just remove the mass at the same time as a dental cleaning under anesthesia.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The appointment was very quick and they did the other quick normal checks (temperature, asked about diet, etc). This appointment cost $89! That is the most I've ever paid for a check up at a vet in this state and two other states I've lived in. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The doctor said they would give me a quote for the dental cleaning and the mass removal and the vet tech said he would get that to me by end the of the day or by the end of the week (this was on a Monday).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Next Tuesday rolled around and I still had not heard from them so I called in the morning and they apologized and said they would send the quote.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I received the quote that evening, but the quote was only for the mass removal at $1874.00 - $2332.57. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I asked to know if this included the dental cleaning. It's now Thursday, almost two weeks after the initial appointment and the person responding to the email said it was only for the mass removal but that the tech could write me a quote for dental cleaning if I want.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They also said they noticed a double charge on the quote so the mass removal quote is actually $1404 - $1862. I should mention that the mass is smaller than the size of a dime on a 13 pound pup. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was dumbfounded that they were asking if I wanted a dental cleaning quote as I had already discussed that with the vet and the tech that they would quote me for both.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] In this timeframe, I was able to get two quotes from other vets and the total quote from these other places (dental and mass removal) were cheaper than the quote for just the mass removal at The Pet Wellness Center. Needless to say, we will be going elsewhere - doing the bloodwork, dental cleaning, and mass removal at a quote of less than $1000! Updating to say I paid $513 for everything (dental cleaning, mass removal, bloodwork, pain meds, etc.) somewhere else. I highly recommend not wasting your time and money and doing the research to find somewhere else to go. The Humane Society does dental cleanings at low-cost as well as many other vets with great reviews in the valley. read more

We have taken our Golden Retriever to see Dr Lane Smith for the last two years. We are snow birds so we take our dog to Dr Smith during the winter months. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We absolutely love Dr Lane Smith and Justin (technician). They are down-to-earth and don't try to get you to do tests and procedures unless they are needed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Dr Smith also has Golden Retrievers so he is personally and professionally knowledgeable about the breed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The gal at the front desk was also helpful and friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Exceptional customer service at its finest.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Dr Lane Smith and his entire staff are amazing! Just 30 minutes from Goodtear AZ, Pet Wellness Center has proven to be experienced, compassionate, and loving. Dr Lane Smith/ Chief Medical Director saved our golden Chester by amputating his front leg and gave him a new lease on life . He remains cancer free after almost 8 months. The price you pay for excellence is determined by your faith in an entire staff! Thank you for all you do! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]More personalized attention given relatively small size.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Knowledgeable and friendly tech staff and vet. Efficient admin staff. Convenient north Phoenix location. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall a very positive experience with our 5 year old Lab's annual check up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Dr. Smith did an amazing job with our pup's first ever dental cleaning. We adopted her as an older dog, and because of some heart issues we have been terrified to bring her in. Dr. Smith made this emotionally painless for us by answering all of the questions we had (there were a lot) and seemingly physically painless for our pup, she hasn't shown any signs of pain or any issues and even with having a tooth extracted she's doing great! read more

The Pet Wellness Center - Happy smiling pup! - Veterinarians Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

They are the best by far, anywhere else I've ever been to. Why? [[HIGHLIGHT]]They are really nice (everyone who works there).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can see their hearts are truly in it (everyone who works there), and have gone above and beyond every time I needed help with something - including helping me with a dog I found outside of Fry's at 9pm wandering around the entrance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] i couldn't keep the dog because my dog wasn't meshing well with him, but [[HIGHLIGHT]]they said one of their vet techs fell in love with the dog and was willing to keep him if they couldn't locate the owners.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Guess what? Even though the dog bad no chip and no identifying tag, they were able to use NexDoor and whatever else they knew to do to locate his owners! I took my dog their for shots in order to get boarding and they saw my dog is super attached to me and didn't want to go into another room without me, so they administered them in the same room we began with me sitting there. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Every vet, and quite honestly, every business should replicate their level of kindness and customer service, because it's a lost art, but highly appreciated![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I really do not like to write reviews and post stuff in public, but this is a sincere effort to help them (not that they need any). Oh, they also use the old school vaccines which aren't great, but much better than the mrna stuff - which is very bad. If you love your pet, I'd take him/her here without hesitation! Thank you read more

We are very happy taking our two small dogs (Havanese and Havanese mix) to this practice. They are as patient with our somewhat cranky elderly dog as they are with our jumpy young puppy. Dr. Smith takes the time to listen to our concerns and thoroughly explains any medical conditions or treatments. It's evident that he genuinely cares about their health and happiness. Ana, the veterinary assistant, is exceptional at her job. Her approach puts our dogs at ease. Overall, we highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for outstanding veterinary care. read more

Went to have an appointment yesterday and "they forgot" to tell me to be there earlier in the day as they could not do what was needed for my pet. So I wasted my time going there after work when the initially asked me to be there. So now I need to either find a new vet or take a day off to do this during the week. read more

Our golden doodle has been gnawing at her tail. We thought that we were going to have to wait quite a long time to find an open appointment, but they were able to squeeze us in. Thank God! Our Gracie is now on the mend and wearing the cone of shame. She's not so happy about that, but I am very happy with everyone in this place. From the receptionist to the assistants to Dr. Burgess, everybody was great. Highly recommend this place. read more

We had an aging dog that was not acting like her normal self. I was able to get an appointment within 24 hours. Dr Smith and his staff were outstanding in diagnosing Stella's issues and sadly we had to let her go. We all were treated with compassionate care. We will definitely take our other fur babies there for their veterinary care! read more

Great place but first year shots are super expensive. The staff is really nice but the cost is crazy.

Called for a cost estimate for my dogs' visit this year & Tyler was so helpful! Very kind & patient with me on the phone. It is appreciated! It is one of the reasons we love this vet. Great staff! Thank you again Tyler! You helped a lot! read more

UPDATE: The owner called me back with a horrible attitude stating that the stitches were "absorbable" and argued the whole time. I provided proof that I had been ignored and she said "surely she would have to look into that" and of course never got back to me. I spent over 1k here in a month and still got the butt end of the stick. Still don't reccomend bringing your pet here if you care about them. read more

This has been an interesting history of visits, dealing with a pet that is aging rapidly. From an energetic Staffordshire Terrier at 14 years of age (85 according to AKC dog years for this breed) to a much less energetic,in pain from arthritis, now diagnosed Cushing's Syndrome pet. Dr Ruhl and Staff; compassionate, informative, conservative, thorough, excellent communicators. That's needed as one goes down the path of caring for a dear friend of a pet. We feel comforted in knowing our pet is in good hands in his last years. Additionally: We had to have our dear friend put to sleep. It's a process both difficult and challenging. The staff made the experience bearable, losing a pet of 13 years is never easy. The professionalism is superb. We highly recommend this wellness center! The staff were teary eyed. That says a lot. You aren't a number and neither is your loved "little soul". read more

I can't say enough good things about this veterinarian! We switched from our old vet's office who was too busy and so expensive. This facility was accommodating and everyone is so nice! Best of all less expensive than our other vet. Highly recommend! read more

I'm new to the pet Wellness Center and I am so happy to have found them! My cat started not feeling well and being new in the area I didn't know who to trust. I called pet Wellness Center because it was right next to me where I live and not only are they knowledgeable and compassionate towards my Sassy-Cat, they didn't rush me. My pets have never had an illness so all of these tests and procedures are new to me. Dr. Hohorst is SO patient and kind. I normally would take my pets to the vet but my husband has had to because I'm high risk for Covid, Dr. Hohorst allowed him to call me and include me in on the exam so I could ask questions and hear the details. My cat was terrified but they were so gentle with her and kind. I feel very comfortable in their care. Our pets are like our children and when they hurt we hurt and the doctor and staff definitely extend that to you. The techs wrapped her in a towel to carry her, they were gentle, and patient. My husband said they were so gentle with her. Dr. Hohorst called me at home, to follow up on our first visit, she called me with test results, she took her time explaining the details, and allowed me the time to wrap my head around what was happening. Again, being new to having pet health issues and literally knowing nothing, they're definitely patient and I'm someone who asks a lot of questions. They handle it very well. And I appreciate that more than words can say. THANK YOU Dr. Hohorst and the Pet Wellness Family! Sassy Burkhardt-Hanson's family! read more

Dr. Rahal and her team go far above and beyond when it comes to caring about pets. They made me feel like they saw my injured pet as their own, and the love showed. Your pet will receive the best care, personalized attention, and a plan for life-long wellness. I highly recommend The Pet Wellness Center to support all pet owners! Thank you, Dr. Cheryl and your wonderful staff! read more

The Pet Wellness Center - Pet Wellness Center helps injured dog. - Veterinarians Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Love this vet! Staff here is wonderful and very willing to help. I got a puppy last year who has unfortunately gotten himself into some trouble (ripping sutures, eating things he isn't supposed to etc). They are always there to help and give advice over the phone if necessary. Their fees are also significantly lower than other vets in the area and they have never charged me for needing help the same day. In 2022, it feels more common to have bad experiences than good ones. It's such a relief to have confidence and know that things are going to be taken care of. read more

ZERO stars. Worst customer service ever! I gave these guys 5 years and it has been 5 too many! The last straw was dropping off a fecal sample on a Wednesday and never receiving a call with the results. Turns out they got the results Thursday and just never bothered to call me. I had to call them Monday afternoon! No sincere apology, just excuses of how the vets are just so booked up. Clearly they don't care about the welfare of their patients, only getting fully booked to make that money. What if my dog needed medical attention?!! They have lost my business and you should NOT give them yours! read more

I needed a vet for my rescue cat and did an internet search and came across The Pet Wellness Center. I couldn't be happier with the treatment my cat and I received. I was promptly greeted and shown to an exam room. Shortly after Mark, the Vet Tech came in and collected the information on my cat and very gently took her out of her carrier and set her down so she could check out the surroundings. Mark was very knowledgeable about cats which put my mind at ease. Dr Cheryl (Rahal) did a very thorough exam and gave me some hints about caring for my cat. She took her time with the exam and I never felt rushed. Dr Cheryl and Mark were kind enough to clip my cat's claws. The staff ialso called after the appointment to check on how my cat was doing. I am so glad I found The Pet Wellness Center and would highly recommend them. read more

Highly recommend! Everyone there is great to you and your pet. Service is quick, prices are fair and they even texted the next day to check in on how my dog was feeling. Very happy! read more

Best place for my cat! Dr. Rahal very good with cats and her staff so very helpful. My kitty is on the mend and I am very thankful!

I called to schedule an appointment to get my two rabbits fixed/neutered. I was told that they took rabbits, so I booked an appointment. I told them over the phone that was the intention of me bringing my rabbits in. Went to the appointment, they did a wellness checkup on both, then proceed to tell me that they couldn't neuter/spay rabbits at their facility because they didn't have a protocol in place. I spent $160 for 20 min, and to be told they couldn't provide the service I came in for. I left my number to talk to a manager, called 3 different times trying to get in touch with them. They never called me back. Apparently they thought a $35 refund was acceptable enough. So disappointed in this vet facility and customer service. I will would never recommend this place to friends or family with so many other great, professional vet clinics available. A phone call from the manger and an acceptable refund/discount could have made this problem right. read more

Hello I know you guys are closed for the weekend so I had no other way to reach you! Are you guys kidding your cat Toby? I work in the same parking lot and a very similar looking kitty came into our story. I am watching them for the night but plan on taking them to the shelter in the morning! read more

The ladies working there were very kind and showed genuine compassion for my poor pup who has been suffering from allergies and possible few other things! As we all know the Vet can be expensive and they did not make me feel judged or like a bad owner for my inability to pay for all my dogs medications ! Instead they talked with me and helped me to figure out something more affordable that cared for my dogs needs. My dog is still a little itchy (granted we just went in yesterday-nothing works over night), but he is no longer as miserable as he was when we first went in! read more

WOW! This clinic is amazing!! Our dog needed stitches, after being in a fight. She wouldn't wear the cone after surgery, so the staff went to Frys and got a t-shirt to protect the stitches. Who does that???? Amazing! Excellent staff and beautiful clinic! read more

i recently got a puppy and this vet office has done nothing but be amazing. i love bringing my little guy here! 10/10

This clinic is awesome!! We just moved into the area and our Golden developed a hematoma in his ear and was suffering from allergies. I called and they put us in the schedule that same morning. Dr. Fowler was very sweet. She drained his ear and put a compression bandage on it rather than try to tell me he needed surgery. As for his allergy issue, she was very conservative in how to treat rather than going straight for the expensive veterinary drugs. This clinic really cares about your pet's wellbeing, not about how much money they can make. Also, they did not push me to do any vaccines or regular tests for heartworm as they didn't have his current medical records and did not want to charge me for something that may still be current. Thank you, Dr. Fowler and the wonderful staff. We have found our new vet!! read more

They have done really well so far with my two dogs. Unlike Banfield, they aren't scared of my dog who gets aggressive when she goes to the vet, because what dog likes to go to the vet... instead of leaving her in the kennel when she gets mad and aggressive, they just let her out so she was free to walk around which makes her happy and not aggressive. It's a little more expensive, but it's worth having a vet who isn't scared of the animals they're going to take care of! read more

This is my first time writing a review but in this case it's warranted. My family and I had planned vacation that I was considering canceling due to the fact my little dogs health was failing. Dr. Rahal said they could keep her there while we were gone. She went above and beyond taking care of lil Rita. I received pictures and a daily update to her condition. Dr. Rahal even gave her some of her lunch. Amazing clinic. Amazing staff. read more

I have been taking my Pug here for a little over a year and have been very happy with them and his care. Today I took my other dog here who is Sheppard / Golden mix who gets nervous when he sees people and barks but at 75 lbs it's a loud bark but is the kindness dog ever like a Golden. He needed to get an allergy shot to help give him some relief from his seasonal allergies and meet this vet for the first time. I couldn't be more PLEASED with the level of care. The ladies up front were more than welcoming coming to say hello to my dog so he felt comfortable and safe. Once in the room the care for him just got better with the tech really welcoming my dog and again making him feel secure and safe. I was stressed brining him to the vet after my last experience at an emergency vet where they wouldn't even pet my dog or try to help calm him but after today I feel so much better thanks to everyone here at The Pet Wellness Center and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for the proper care for you animals. read more

Cheryl is the most amazing and caring Vet, Hero has been my best friend for 12 years and she made him feel so much better. We were able to make his last few weeks as comfortable as possible. read more

We switched to this clinic after having experienced a surge in prices at our previous veterinarian office and we are so glad we made the switch. The staff are always friendly, it is quite easy to get an appointment and the veterinarians care about the wellbeing of your animal, not just making money. I feel comfortable knowing I can afford my dogs services while not skimping on quality of care. read more

I just recently moved in the area and wasn't every impressed with any of the Vets until I came upon The Pet Wellness Center and was introduced to Dr. Rahal. She was fantastic with my overly excited puppy and was very helpful! I don't plan on ever going anywhere else. Thank you Dr. Rahal! You're amazing! read more
