He was calm and caring. Really focusing on us and what we could expect. A few days afterward, we received a floral delivery and a sweet note from his clinic. I can't tell you how much that helped in our grief during that time. We picked up our dog's ashes which came in a pretty wooden box along with a card from the box company-a tree had been planted in our dog's name. How cool is that!?

This place has definitely been my best vet experience.

Our newly rescued Pomeranian spent 3 days at Como Park being treated for persistent pneumonia. We…read morewere blown away by the quality of care and the personal investment of each and everyone at Como Park Animal Hospital in bringing our dog back to life. We called at 3:45am on Good Friday and the hospital was too full to accept our pet (holidays, it seems, are often busy at the hospital). On the following day I called again, and my pet was admitted into the hospital for three days. He received dedicated, careful care, which explains why this policy of not over-admitting is so important. As soon as we came to the hospital on the weekend, our dog was taken back for triage. While he was being treated in the ICU, a technician came to talk over our Pom's case. He was just rescued, and his pneumonia was being treated for 9 days already without success. Our dog was hospitalized for 3 days. During this time, he was treated by four vets, all of whom were exceptional, though our favorite vet will always be Dr. Reis. She was invested 100% in brining our dog back to life. Together we created a treatment plan, with Dr. Reis always listening to my concerns and giving the best advice. I felt like I had a knowable partner in a difficult situation. Thank you, Dr. Reis!!! We were welcomed to visit our dog during his hospital stay whenever we wanted. We came 3 times a day, morning, noon and night, and we were always shown to a private comfortable room for a long, long visit. We brought food from home, which our dog was given by the staff during his stay. We also fed him during our visits. We called every day for updates on our dog between our visits, and each time the technician we spoke with was so kind, so loving to our dog and so helpful in providing us with all the information we required, including going over treatment plans daily. At last, the cost for our dog's stay was far less than we feared. Though we had asked that no cost be spared during treatment, in the the end the final bill was moderate. Thank you so much! This little dog is our family's Christmas present, and we are very grateful to Como Park Animal Hospital for giving him a chance to survive a cruel life of abuse prior to his rescue. Now, we have a chance to build a happy life together. Thank you!

They did not want to meet with us on an emergency case until after the doctor did an exam. Us knowing our pet was not valuable to them. I am left with the feeling that our pets are just teaching subjects for them and we pay for the privilege of being disrespected. Another experience with them was that they over treat/experiment with our pets, wanting to try the latest medicine or teach something new instead of doing what is best for the pet. Be prepared to challenge what they suggest which is the opposite of why I consult a vet. I am looking for caring instead of being bulldozed. It's a shame they care more about teaching and collecting money than about the animals.

They honestly love, love, love your pets like their own. Being a long-term client with multiple pets, we have been through so much and have felt so grateful to entrust our pets' care to these wonderful, talented, and knowledgeable practitioners. We just had to say goodbye to our dear kitty, Brutus (14 years) after being diagnosed 4.5 months earlier with Stage 4 Kidney Disease. Dr. Koppy had seen him through everything since we adopted him: regular checkups, hematomas, luxating patella surgery, and this disease. Everyone from the receptionist to the vet techs to Dr. Koppy have continued to lead with expertise, compassion, and genuine care for our kitty, especially as we found treatments to work with his final illness. When Brutus was first diagnosed, my husband and I had so many questions and concerns and I was so grateful to have Dr. Koppy address every single one with patience, kindness, and understanding. I never once felt rushed or like just another client. Dr. Koppy and her team support guardians of pets as much as the pets themselves. They even brought us in to learn how to give Sub-cutaneous fluids at home. Dr. Koppy comforted us in letting us know that even though his kidneys were ill and we had to add supplements and medications, our kitty wasn't experiencing any pain as we managed his symptoms. When Brutus took a turn for the worst practically overnight (which Dr. Koppy prepared us for well ahead of time), I tried to get him in for an appointment at the clinic the day of. When I described his symptoms, they were very adamant that he needed to get seen even if it wasn't by them. They didn't have openings but put Brutus as #1 priority on the waitlist for the day and also directed me to a clinic that could have openings. Dr. Koppy called me several times that morning as well to talk through what was happening and what her recommendations and thoughts were, even though she couldn't examine him in person herself. I am so glad they did all of this because my cat was starting to suffer significantly and quickly. We were able to see the recommended clinic to get the necessary tests needed to confirm that it was time to prevent him from suffering any more. He went peacefully at home that evening in large part because of their concerns and recommendations. The staff respectfully checked in on us with a card and phone call. This experience has only deepened our relationship with LAH. I know whatever comes our way for our 2 remaining cats (17 yo and 10 yo), I can trust that Dr. Koppy and the Lyndale Animal Hospital team will continue to do everything they can to ensure their health, well-being, and dignity as they lead the fullest lives they can. Thank you to everyone for supporting us during the good and the challenging times.

My wife and I were…read morevisiting our daughter and her family in California and boarded our 11 year old English Cocker Sophie with a boarding kennel we have used extensively in the past. This time Sophie was attacked by another dog at group playtime. She received two deep punctures in her left flank and abdomen. The boarding kennel took her to Southview where they treated her - cleaned her wounds, sewed her up, gave her pain meds and antibiotics etc. The kennel called our son who is our emergency contact here and he called us early in the morning in California. Of course we were shocked and worried - after all we had left Sophie in what we expected to be safe place. We called Southview and spoke with Dr Mahanke. She spent a long time describing Sophie's injuries, treatment and prognosis which was good. Sophie was returned to the kennel where she was placed in confinement and where the staff did an excellent job of caring for her. She was returned to Southview for a check and Dr Mahanke called us and gave us a positive update we also set an appointment for Sophie after we returned. Sophie came home in good spirits but wearing an Elizabethan collar which was necessary but made feeding etc very awkward and uncomfortable We returned to Southview but Dr Mahanke was ill so we saw Dr Lee who removed her stitches and the Elizabethan collar much to Sophie's and our relief. Both of the vets and the vet tech were very friendly and they obviously cared very much about Sophie's well being. My wife and I were very pleased and would consider using Southview for routine car but it is a very long drive for us.

I was told someone made a decimal point error, and that humans make errors. Following his death I got a sympathy card and many heartfelt personal condolences, but no apology. And then, for months, Oakdale AERC refused to refund the money I had already paid for his treatment because they said up until they overdosed him they had done everything right. Yes, they truly said this. Their mistake was tragic, but it was a mistake. The way their administration chose to behave following his death was not a mistake--it was intentional and inhumane. Because of that I would never recommend that anyone take their beloved pets to Oakdale AERC.
