Bruno, Ev, and Teddy
Billy C.

I've been honored to have many, many dogs and cats as companion animals. I've also had beaucoup veterinarians, some good, some not-so-good, but Compass Vet in Lake Oswego has hands down been the most compassionate and caring vet clinic I've ever taken my critters to for their medical needs. My 15 year old Bruno recently had to be euthanized, and Dr. Connolly and her staff made sure that we felt safe and secure with the knowledge that his passing would be handled with their usual love, care, and empathy. I was so overwhelmed emotionally with the situation, and also with the way they handled the entire process, for Bruno and for myself. Thank you, Cherie, for helping to diminish the pain and sadness I was going through, and for making Bruno's passing as painless and peaceful as possible.

Bella feeling better after a vet visit

Compass Veterinary Clinic is the only vet in the greater Portland area I trust with the care of my elderly and sickly bunny Bella. She often gets GI stasis, but with the amazing care and critical bunny care knowledge given to me from the exotic vets here, I have brought my sweet angel bunny back from death's door many times. They are committed to fairly priced, ethical and amazing care for their pets, while when I've taken my bunny to other emergency vets who did not even know which medications to prescribe for her. Thank you compass vet clinic for the amazing and knowledgeable bunny care you have provided time and time again

Dr. Connolly is a saint! I had to drive seven hours to see her and I would do it over and over again thank you thank you thank you!

Amazing Staff! Penny is such a delight and so helpful. Mr. Connolly is very kind and helpful. Dr. Connolly is fabulous. Best veterinary clinic we have ever been to! We will buy our cats special food from them as well. They went above and beyond to make our cats feel comfortable and not afraid. Highly recommend them!!!!! Thank you for such great service! -Gina, Michael, Osborne and Isabelle Cobb

Virginia R.

I will definitely be bringing it pup back for any future medical needs! The staff were great, Dr Baron explained everything so well and personally gave us a call when our pup was done with his surgery(took him in for a neuter). The environment was great Wally warmed up to Dr. Baron quickly overall a wonderful experience . Definitely recommend these guys !

I'm not entirely certain which Yelp is the correct one for the rehab center but here goes…read more I came here and had a consult with Dr Shannon last week. First off, just want to say that I'm pretty much in love with all the staff here (minus one receptionist that I met today who wasn't the friendliest person compared to everyone else). Shawna brought me to the exam room to prep me for Dr Shannon. Back story: My sweet 12 year old dog has gotten more lame in his rear quarters and my husband and I want to prevent it from getting worse. We were told by our Vet in Tualatin park animal clinic to get rehab consult. I'm so so thankful we met who we met here. Shawna was so friendly, kind, gentle with my dog. She patiently listened to everything I had to say, asked follow up questions so I knew she was actually listening. She was just really present. Then moments later walks Dr Shannon. Something about her energy just made me feel like my boy was in such safe hands. The consult was 2 hours long but it didn't even feel that long. Dr Shannon was so so thorough, but so so gentle knowing my pup was in pain. Half way through the appointment he even fell asleep! After the appointment they gave me homework and Shawna thoroughly went over everything. She showed me what to do and all the tricks I needed to know. Fast forward a week. I can't remember the tech that took my pup back for his water therapy but I totally love her energy! She told me I could watch from outside, which I did for a few minutes as they got him set up inside the tank. But both Shawna and the other tech kept petting him and reassuring him. My heart melted knowing they were being so good to him without me being there comforting him myself. When he was done they called. The tech whose name I forgot brought him out and was so super sweet she patient telling me how he was doing and answering all my questions. She mentioned something that made my day about what a good boy he was and how he just knew what to do, and that nothing phased him. These are things pet owners need to hear because I'm honestly thinking he's scared out of his mind being somewhere new. Thank you, all of you for taking such good care of my best friend. Despite only coming here twice I want to come back all the time. I can't praise them enough.

They are amazing!! Better care than Dove Lewis! It was refreshing to hear that they actually care…read moreabout your animal baby.

They are very good at taking the time to explain things very well. All employees are friendly and kind. Dr. Tongue treated my dog last time, and my impression is that she is terrific. M concern is that in three years I have never had the same veterinarian twice. No one seems to have much ongoing professional or personal investment in my senior dog's health. Since my dog now has some chronic issues and is 16 + years old, I have asked if I could have the same vet for continuity of care and Dr. T agreed. Also, my dog came for a visit for a chronic cough. He was not given a definitive diagnosis, just a mentioning of 3-4 serious things it could be. I was then given 'the talk' about the 'quality of his life,' etc., indicating euthanizing him may be on his radar soon. Instead my dog's cough got better and that was months ago. Last, it seems to be 'policy' to now charge extra money $ for a 2-3 minute 'vet tech assessment' prior to getting any vaccination. My dog had three expensive. Appointments three months in a row. However I was still charged an extra $30 while some tech looked at my dog's eyes, ears, teeth and felt his fur 'to make sure he was healthy enough for his vaccine,' which seems utter nonsense and just a way for extra revenue. My dog is severely anxious at the vet's, and this unnecessary assessment' made him terrified as time went on, making the the final vaccination very difficult to perform and requiring an additional employee to help strongly hold him in place.

I called halfway through my trip and they provided an update, which I really appreciated. When I picked her up she was happy, smelled amazing, and her fur was so soft. Not sure if they bathed her or brushed her or what, but I appreciated it. The staff is super friendly, and I would happily leave my old girl with them again (she's 16). For reference, she stayed in a kitty condo and I could easily fit her bed plus one of the long/narrow scratchers from petsmart. My kitty also requires a decent amount of medication, and that was no issue, just a small fee per med.

I cannot in good conscience recommend Cat Care Professionals any longer. They will not treat my…read morealmost 14 yo indoor diabetic cat because she has not had a rabies vaccine. I can understand needing precautions, but they denied a prescription cat food through Chewy and won't even do a blood glucose curve and let me send it via email as we have done three times previously in the past 3 months. They saw her in clinic about 6 months ago and missed that she didn't have the vaccine. Once they found that, they cut all care. Oregon Secretary of State registration shows the Authorized Representative for Cat Care Professionals as Peter Jacobson. Per his LinkedIn page, Peter Jacobson is the CFO of Western Veterinary Partners (also noted in the Oregon Secretary of State registration) which, "is a private equity backed company that acquires and manages veterinary clinics throughout the U.S." The care shows it. I'm sure the staff cares, but they were happy to take my money and drop my cat who needs care. I would give a zero if I could. (They were a 5/5 about 10 years ago.)

If you're not the only patient of course most critical goes 1st as it should be & there has never been a long wait time. Even at end-of-life for our beloved Maximus. The Dr spent quite a while with us, gave us Al the time we needed & THEY were GREAT & did a WONDERFUL presentation of HIS ashes in a most BEAUTIFUL wooden box & footprint afterwards. Something I didn't realize was they let our primary vet know that Maximus had passed. We hadn't even thought of it yet being he hadn't been there in a bit because of complications & it was exceptionally nice to receive a condolences card from his vet in the mail. Just another really good thing EVCOT does for their patients. THANK YOU for all the things you guys did to help get Maximus almost to his 12th birthday

We searched online and found that Emergency Vet of Tualatin was open 24 hours. We took her there and all the staff were warm and welcoming during this stressful time. They were able to get her in to see a vet right away. We appreciate the speediness of their efforts. Unfortunately it was determined the our dog had a stroke and lost almost all mobility in her hind legs. This was a very difficult decision to make and the vet was patient and kind during the whole interaction. We chose a private cremation and paw print. When we saw the beautiful wooden box her ashes were put in it made a somber moment a little easier. I called to mention that we wanted her collar with her name tag to keep. They were able to track it down and made sure we got it. The paw print was done well and the quality was great. It was thoughtful of the clinic to send us a card as well about their condolences.

I realize my experience doesn't have anything to do with acute problems in younger animals that may need surgery, etc., but I was impressed with the compassion and with the speed in which they took care of both of my cats when we were experiencing end of life choices.

Unless you can be first in line in the morning, this is a place we use for: 1. Annual exams 2. Vaccines 3. Dentistry 4. Chips/neutering/spaying 5. Non-emergency issues (ie/ scratching a lot, hot spots, etc) 6. Nail trims/anal glands Every time I'm there I see someone come in and freak out about the wait. If it's an emergency GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. I say that with the most loving kindness because your animal needs to be seen asap and this is not the facility for that kind of situation. Otherwise, this place has great prices and their vets are very knowledgeable. My advice, go on a day where they have their sales (ie/ I think Thursday has discounted vaccines) and get there at least 30 mins before they open. Mondays and Fridays are always the worst wait wise. Tues, weds and thurs are usually better. They're fairly good about email. So instead of calling, email them to ask questions. I'm giving 4 stars because I wish they had a hybrid situation for animals that need to be seen sooner.
