I have a corgi puppy and a border collie. They are quick, always on time and care about your pets. They give you multiple options instead of just a here-you-go kind of service. My dogs are going through a nasty parasite and it's been heart breaking. But Dr.Jess was nothing but caring and actually listened to me as a client. I own a local grooming company and recommend them to everyone. I had a bad experience at a different local vet here in anthem. To say it was bad is an understatement. New river has always welcomed with warm hugs. I did price comparisons at other vets in about a 20 mile radius and this vets prices beat everyone else's as well as having good service. Keep it up receptionists, techs, vets and other staff. You are amazing.

LET THIS BE A WARNING -- THINK TWICE BEFORE TRUSTING THIS VETERINARY PRACTICE…read more After more than 20 years as a loyal client, my elderly mother deserved compassion and honesty during one of the most devastating moments of her life: saying goodbye to her beloved dog. Tammy completed the paperwork and asked my mother sign it. My mother did not personally complete the paperwork, yet it ended up indicating mass cremation--something my mother never chose and had never selected in more than 20 years with this practice. ALL HER DOGS HAVE BEEN CREMATED AND RETURNED TO HER!!! She only discovered what had happened when she called asking when she would receive her dog's remains. What happened next was even worse. Instead of taking responsibility, investigating what actually occurred, or simply admitting a mistake, Sarah, the owner/vet, defended the staff and blamed my elderly mother. There is paperwork showing Tammy's handwriting and my mother's signature. If there is camera footage of the encounter, review it and determine the truth. In our opinion, Tammy and Sarah are lying to cover their mistake and shifting the blame onto an elderly, grieving woman who trusted this practice for decades. That is not accountability. It is not compassion. And it is completely unacceptable. My mother deserved better. Our dog deserved better. After 20+ years of loyalty, we deserved better. Think twice before trusting this practice with your pet--or your family. They only care about the money.

I brought my dog in…read morefor a scheduled surgery, and we had already purchased medical insurance specifically to help cover situations like this. Everything seemed fine at drop-off, but just one hour later, I received a call saying my dog suddenly had a "heart problem." Instead of clearly explaining the situation and working with the insurance we had already paid for, it felt like they were using this as an opportunity to push additional charges. The communication was unclear, rushed, and honestly felt more like a sales pitch than genuine concern for my pet's well-being. What bothered me the most was the lack of transparency. Why wasn't this issue identified beforehand? And why wasn't the insurance properly applied or even discussed as part of the solution? It left me feeling pressured, confused, and taken advantage of during a very stressful moment. I trusted this clinic with my dog's care, and instead I walked away questioning their ethics and professionalism. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for honest, compassionate veterinary care.

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. The entire team at The Pet Wellness Center truly cares for your pets as if they were their own family. 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. Thank you, Dr. Stinnett and the entire staff, for giving us more time with our beloved Jake. We will be forever grateful.

I took my senior pup to establish care at this vet since we live very close and I also wanted them…read moreto check a small mass that he has growing on his head. 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. 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. 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). 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. I received the quote that evening, but the quote was only for the mass removal at $1874.00 - $2332.57. 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. 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. 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. 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.

Thats not the kind of service that we have grown to love living in a small town like Anthem!
