Heide H.

Our feline family has been seen at the Boise Cat Clinic for about five years. Throughout this time we have been exceptionally pleased with the care all of our cats have received from every staff member- reception to veterinarian. Both the humans and the cats in our family have been treated with dignity and respect, and the veterinary staff clearly explains their recommendations, including price. We have never felt pressure to spend beyond our means, nor have we felt shamed when we are not able to immediately schedule pricier procedures. It always feels as if each appointment is customized to the cat that is scheduled for that day, and the Dr. Roller and Dr. Irwin provide an exceptional continuity of care, especially for some of our cats with more complex medical issues. Both doctors have contacted us after business hours to explain lab results or check in on sick kitties. The whole clinic gives the feeling of truly caring about their clients. No one wants to face the day when it is time to say good-bye to a pet, but when it was time for our beloved Emily and Willie to cross the rainbow bridge, everyone was incredibly compassionate and patient. We were allowed to remain with them as long as we needed on both occasions and every effort was made to ensure that Emily's and Willie's best interests, comfort, and dignity were paramount. As others have said, the clinic is clean, quiet, well organized, and set up with the needs of cats in mind. Every exam is "tip to tail," meaning that each body system of the cat is examined and explanation is provided along the way. Accommodations are made for shy or frightened cats, including splitting procedures/vaccines across multiple days and providing towels during the exam so that only the part being examined is in view. We are so thankful that we've found the Boise Cat Clinic and cannot imagine taking our cats anywhere else.

They made my little 6-week-old kitten feel safe and well taken care of!

Very friendly staff and doctors!!! Doctor Vekman is wonderful. She went over all procedures and costs before they did anything and was helpful and knowledgeable with all my questions! The clinic is quiet, so my 6 week old kitten was at ease. The offices are clean and spacious. There aren't enough good things to say about the Boise Cat Clinic. I would recommend them to any cat owner. Prices are extremely competitive too!

Dr. Roller really has a way with cats, my cat hates vet visits and she was relaxed during this one. The staff is really nice, too!

From the moment she walked into the room, Bev was kind, compassionate, and genuinely invested in helping our dog. Even though this was an urgent care appointment, she went above and beyond in every way. She took the time to thoroughly evaluate our pup, performed an ultrasound to ensure nothing was being overlooked, and patiently answered all of our questions. At no point did we feel rushed. (Bonus points for getting our pup's nails trimmed during the visit, something we've deemed nearly impossible since our sweet girl has started to decline.) Over the years, we've seen specialists and veterinarians that required long waits for appointments, yet Bev was more thorough than many of those experiences. She made us feel confident that every appropriate step was being taken and that we were doing everything possible to give our dog the best care and quality of life. Unfortunately, the visit ended with difficult news. Even then, Bev handled the conversation with incredible empathy, kindness, and compassion. She helped us understand the situation while also reassuring us that we had been doing everything we could for our beloved dog. That meant more to us than we can adequately express. If you are looking for a veterinarian who is exceptionally knowledgeable, thorough, and deeply caring, we cannot recommend Bev Cochrane highly enough. We are so grateful for the time, attention, and compassion she showed our family during a very emotional and difficult day.

With over 30 years of experience as a Physician Assistant (PA) I checked him out and found a hematoma in his left year. I told my wife that maybe he was stung by a wasp/hornet and we should put an ice pack against the hematoma. After about 24 hrs we called our primary vet but they didn't have any walk-in appointments for at least one week. She said that she was going to try Ada Veterinary. I reminded her of the negative/lack of ethics by by Brianna Malaki that we had with about 5 years ago. She said she didn't care as Rasta needed to be seen immediately. I drove her up but refused to enter the veterinary office. They said that Rasta broke his cartilage with caused bleeding enough to cause his left ear to drop. They gave him a "No Flap Ear Wrap" and charged her over $500.00 and said she needed to him Monday next week (No Flap Ear Wrap can be bought for $49 on Amazon). The wife brought him for another $200 and was told to bring him the following Monday (today). Had my appointment 12:45 pm went in and was led to an appointment room by Kyra. I informed her that this was Rasta third visit and being 10 y/o I didn't want a thing done to him. She said she understood and then grabbed Rasta and went to leave. I asked where she was going with him and she commented the vet wanted to him in "back". I reminded her that I didn't want any care. After about waiting 20 minutes I open the door and asked the secretary where Rasta was at. She said he was back with the veterinarian and they were discussing what needed to be down. I immediately got pissed and said I never gave my consent to have them do any treatment on him.. Before I knew it there five Vet Techs surrounding me and I repeated that I never gave them permission to do anything to Rasta that is one of that said that's how we do things!! I explained I was a PA are there are two types of consent; implied and given. I explained that he was awake and alert, so it could not be implied. I told the to get Rasta and the told me that had to figure out my bill. I grabbed Brenda Malick's business out of that card holder and said she is unethical and a crook. Through it all not was a veterinarian present to address anything with me. They apparently are spineless and let their staff handle it. Contacting the State of Idaho and filing a formal complaint.

He grew up going to River City for his health care and was a regular at doggie day care. This was his favorite place on earth. The care and love received from these people was extraordinary. He was so comfortable with this place and its wonderful people that when he had to see Dr. Harsh for medical care, he was unafraid and loved him too with big lick to the face. The attached picture was hung in the lobby of River City of our sweet boy and you can see how happy he was playing with his friends. There is no better better place in town to take your animal for care or day care! When I think of the great memories we had with our dog, this place is part of those very fond memories. Thank you Dr. Harsh and River City Veterinary Hospital and Day Care for being so loving and taking such good care of our very good boy Luke.

Instead, River City Vet turned us away…read more During Blue's yearly checkup I mentioned that there had been some respiratory/sneezing issues for several months but this was of no concern to them. We were told he was healthy. He wasn't. I brought Blue in for a weight check 3-4 weeks after his checkup. He had lost nearly a pound in that time. He wouldn't eat. His behavior had changed. No one followed up on my concerns. I called River City Vet a few days after the weight check because Blue was lethargic and wouldn't eat or drink. We were told they didn't have time for us. I took Blue in to West Vet for IV fluids every day for 3 days. My husband was out of the country and made an emergency flight home from Japan while we struggled to keep Blue alive so he could say goodbye to his favorite human. Blue died in our arms on Easter Sunday, a few hours after my husband got home. He was only 6 years old.

Turns out I had given her two walnuts yesterday with some powdery black portions. I am so ignorant that I did not realize that moldy walnuts are EXTREMELY toxic to dogs. The mold produces "tremorgenic mycotoxin" which is a powerful neurotoxin even in small quantities. It affects the cerebellum, hence the tremors and unsteadiness. By the time I had brought her to the ER, thank goodness she was alert, social and wagging her tail. Tremors mostly gone. Vital signs were great. They felt it wasn't necessary to give charcoal or induce vomiting. They let me take her home for close watching. NO CHARGE!! The team was super helpful, efficient and compassionate. If there is a better Vet ER, I do not know of it. Thank you guys so much!

Go to the Meridian or Nampa location instead. You'll save so many hours dealing with a clinic that…read morecan actually do its job and you'll pay half the price. I called ahead to confirm they weren't busy, and when I arrived at 11:30 pm the clinic was empty with only one dog ahead of mine. I still spent over 6 hours there and paid almost $500, only to leave with exactly the medications I asked for at the start: a probiotic like Proviable and an anti-nausea medication like Cerenia. My dog sometimes gets into foods that upset her stomach, and I was worried she was getting dehydrated after a long bout of diarrhea. They took her to the back and put me in a tiny room. After an hour and a half, I went out to check, and she still hadn't been seen. I asked if she could wait with me instead of sitting in a kennel. They said they'd check and never got back to me about bringing her out. Instead she spent panicked hours howling in the back when she's already not feeling well. The vet and techs seemed very young and inexperienced. If this is how they run a slow night, I can't imagine a busy one. By contrast, I once went to the Nampa location for a similar issue. They were fairly busy, but I stayed with my dog and was out in an hour with what I needed for half the price. I will say the receptionist is very kind and that poor woman has no control over what's going on in the back. She probably has to deal with a lot of complaints.

I feel extremely grateful as I write this…read more I have an elderly dog who's been struggling of late. I had not established a veterinarian here in Boise since I relocated after the pandemic. That said, I had been so upset and in so much anxiety since her health appeared to be failing that I spent an entire day this week, driving around and viewing several veterinarian clinics in Boise. I had pretty much given up when I came upon Hometown Animal Clinic. I made an impromptu visit and was greeted kindly and with care by Sarah, who works at the front desk! She was considerate of my tears and quickly scheduled me for this today. The last two days I've been riddled with anxiety about how my 13-year-old girl would do during a vet visit, I must say, it went extraordinarily well. Of course, Sarah was there to greet me this morning. I left Akira in the car until Erin came to the back door to welcome us in. Again, I was very anxious, but Akira had no fear of the environment nor of Erin. Erin was very kind and thorough with her inquiries about the current situation, diet, past etc. Upon Erin beckoning Dr. Duncan, she arrived quietly and kindly. Dr. Duncan spent nearly an hour in the exam room with Akira and I and was very calm and gentle. She concurred and acknowledged my concerns and we moved forward with some necessary testing that was not intrusive. I left feeling the biggest sense of relief and gratitude! I would not hesitate to refer Hometown Animal Clinic and its staff in full! Tonight, I will probably sleep for the first time in a week
