I could not speak highly enough of Dr. Gerber. She has been our vet for twelve years now and in…read morethat time has cared for six dogs and three cats of ours, dealing with some very complex and demanding medical challenges, including pregnancies, ligament surgeries, and a serious, rare digestive disorder that would have killed one of our dogs had it not been for Dr. Gerber's refusal to give up on her. Dr. G gives her full attention to every patient and makes sure to explain everything carefully. She always lays out treatment options in detail, and compares the costs an benefits of each alternative. And if she shines in the clinic setting, she is absolutely stellar in her followup and after-hours accessibility. When you need her, she is there. Period; no ifs ands or buts. Negatives? About the only thing worth mentioning is the fact that she runs a one-person practice, so when she goes on vacation, or attends continuing education sessions (and she is diligent about keeping her skills up to date) there is no second doctor to take over, so it's a good idea to get to know a backup vet in case of emergencies while Dr. G. is away. Some of the other area vets are wonderful, but we learned by experience that there's at least one who is not.

I brought my large breed dog in with an ear infection and the way he treated me, you would think I was running doggy fight club. Told me what a shitty pet owner I am. Because my dog had an infection.

I will never bring my animals back to this jerk. Also my dog is very scared at the vet so I brought a friend to help, another point he made about what a bad owner I am.

I have to admit, it was quite hilarious to see a grown adult have a temper tantrum. . I also would like to mention that their "low cost" spay/neuter program would've cost me nearly $300 for both of my kittens. Thanks to the Humane Society, their low cost program costs only $45 for a female & $65 for a male. Save yourself the hassle! Take your fur babies to a vet that actually cares and is affordable. I hope my review will be helpful for some of you.

This Vet should not be practicing medicine. He doesn't even deserve a 1-star rating! My experience…read moreat this clinic was extremely upsetting. I left feeling that my pet didn't receive the compassion or empathy I expect from a veterinary professional, and that the communication I received came across as rude and dismissive in an already stressful situation. What concerned me most was his lack of accountability when the care he provided didn't align with what my pet needed, and the situation ultimately got worse rather than better. After reading other reviews, I realized my experience wasn't unique, which confirmed my decision to seek care elsewhere. I encourage other pet owners to consider alternative clinics so their animals can receive the level of care and compassion they deserve.

I do not recommend Erik Haukaas or the Bay Area Animal Hospital…read more I had an extremely disappointing experience at this veterinary clinic. Not only did my pets not receive their necessary rabies shots, a legally required vaccination for their safety and the safety of others but the entire appointment was mishandled and rushed. On top of that, the vet was rude and dismissive, which wasn't the first time I experienced this. Previously, when I brought in one of my cats for neutering, he acted the same way, and at the time I was too intimidated to speak up. It's unacceptable to treat clients this way, especially when it involves the health and safety of animals. I was t planning on retiring after this experience anyways but the icing on the cake were the reviews I saw on Google! People are saying he abuses animals and there have been instances where he didn't take the proper course of care for animals and it ended with them dying. I will not be returning and I definitely don't recommend this place to anyone if you want to have a respectful and animal loving veterinarian.

We were camping in Iron River and my dog ended up getting an infection around her eye from an…read moreinjury. I called Northland and they inquired about her vaccine status. I told them it was about a year and half since her last rabies vax. We had gotten her from a human society near our home. They called them and since they were closed was unable to confirm that she was current on her vaccine status. The vet refused to see her unless we let them vaccinate her again. My argument was that her body was already fighting an infection and giving her a dose of vaccine unnecessarily was only going to compromise her immune system further. He didn't care and refused to see her. So basically the only thing important to them is vaccines. The health of the dog wasn't any concern to them. We left without my dog being seen. Luckily I have a backround of natural healing. We went to a health store got what I needed and proceeded to care for her myself. I do not recommend them and will never ask for their help again.

Had to take the cat to a very busy vet in ashland. They said yes with no hesitation. We're very caring and concerned. My mom told me of how they treated her, an elderly lady, and her animals. Today they lied to me. Wouldn't spay my cat thru the local shelters program. I made the appointment, they called and rescheduled it. Then I get there and I'm told they called and left me a message that they won't service my pets because of a bad review. Well here's another one. It's not about me, it's about the animals. If you can't handle one bad review, then you truly deserve the numerous ones you get from many people. It's a shame you treat people and their pets the way you do. It's not just a one time thing. It's constant. When I left there today, there were a few people that said they only hear negative things about that animal clinic. I absolutely will not step foot in that place nor recommend them to anyone. Run!!!! If you live your pet, find another clinic.
