I love this vet. You are greeted by the office dogs and cat, which is already a bonus! The staff is wonderful and the vets are really informative. The wait isn't long and they make sure to spend time with you to answer any questions you might have. The main vet is also the surgeon and he has removed two cancerous growths on our cat. Both times, he fully removed them without any issues from the lab. Highly recommend! read more

Winnie just had dental surgery to remove a broken tooth. I was pleasantly surprised that the final amount was much lower than the estimate and that they took such good care of Winnie. Dr. Mark called me after her X-rays to let me know what he found before he operated. They also give you follow-up calls to make sure your pet is doing okay after surgery. They are about the friendliest bunch around and really care about the pets and their owners. I highly recommend Dr. Mark Fineman and his staff. read more

We can't say enough good things about Paramount! They treat you and your pets like family. We had to put our 15-year Golden down last week and they sent us this hand-written card. They go above and beyond and we can't thank them enough! read more

See all

I have been a client of Dr. Mark's since 2015. He and his staff have kindly helped me through some sad and stressful times as a pet owner. I currently have 3 kitties and Dr. Mark's care of them is top notch. Dr. Mark spends more than the usual few minutes discussing my kitties issues/needs. I consider myself a "high maintenance client", ( I have high standards and ask lots of questions), and Dr. Mark is always patience and understanding. Dr. Mark is amazing, he truly cares. I recommend his practice 100%. read more

Absolutely THE best team. So professional and knowledgeable and, especially caring. Up-to-date treatment facility and equipment read more

Paramount Animal Care - Entire team takes special care with Prince, our Tibetian sheepdog and certified library therapy dog - Veterinarians Near Me - Meridian, Idaho

Unfortunately, massive growth and not enough people and time, to take proper care of your patients. Because the lady who answers the phone is convincing and is unable to get you an appointment for weeks, my animal suffered. My Dane, who fell ill with gastrointestinal issues, we reached out to your office somewhere between July 23rd-25th. And was told, to just "take all the food away". Real nice. We listened, and for that, our dog was dead July 29th! If only we could have had her seen.... Word of mouth makes and breaks small businesses. Anger isn't even the word! Watching my children suffer is real nice! So glad you're all making so much money though! read more

Paramount Animal Care - RIP sweet girl, Lilo - Veterinarians Near Me - Meridian, Idaho

Entire staff is amazing !!! Dr Mark is the most compassionate Vet I have ever taken my dogs too. Will NEVER go anywhere else !!! read more

Poor customer service after years of loyalty and spending money with his practice. It really is sad to see that it is always more about $$ than once in our pets best interest. read more

Dr. Mark and his staff are very kind. Very knowledgeable and accommodating. Was able to take care of my dog, get vaccines up to date and a general check up. Was a quick and easy visit. Highly recommend if your looking or needing a vet. read more

After spending what felt like weeks reviewing various veterinarians for our French Bulldog I finally settled on Paramount. Dr. Mark and his staff are friendly and empathetic. Outside of routine pup maintenance we brought our pooch in for some allergy issues and for a pretty severe back issue. I've always felt that Paramount valued our time and wanted to figure out the best possible way to help our dog (both remedy and cost). I can't recommend them highly enough. If your pets are your family then this is the place to give them the best care. read more

Always willing be helpful. I really appreciate them, I know how busy they are, but they make time when they can.

I've taken my pupper Lucy here a few times now. The wait times are reasonable. The front staff is really nice, very knowledgeable about local stuff for dogs to do... should they get bored and say "what's up today? Can we go do something fun and different? I'm bored with the same ol walks...". Oh. They don't talk. Well, maybe it's just my dog. It's the way she looks at me I guess. Anyway, we've seen two vets there, the head honcho and heather. Both very thorough and caring. I know my girl is in good hands when we go in. One time she went in for dental. Dr Mark called me to say she needed several extractions.. be warned the bill will be around $1,000. Okay I said. That will be hard on the ol pocketbook, but do what's needed for the best care of my precious Lucy, I said. Oy! I come to pick her up and all she has left are two bottom fangs and about 8 teeth in the waaaaaaaay back of her mouth. That will be over $2,000.00 please! WHAT???!?! I was told it would be half that! Be careful with your pocketbook here... it may get picked. But hey, they did a great job and now my Lucy has the best breath in the whole family! read more

Very pleased with Mark and his curteous and friendly staff. This was our 1st visit and even during this busy time for the veterinary industry, he took a fair amount of time to learn about our dog Fargo. read more

I just moved here and had not yet gotten a new vet for my dog. She somehow hurt her eye and it was swollen shut. All the vets I called wouldn't be able to fit me in for another month! (Due to being backed up from Covid). However Paramount fit me in the very next morning. They charged an emergency visit fee which is just $30 more than their regular fee. Due to Covid I just had to drop my dog off and wait for them to call me whenever they were finished seeing her. They were very friendly with her and made me feel comfortable leaving her there. The vet Mark Fineman called me about an hour later and gave me the update. He was extremely friendly and thorough with the information. Great price for everything and great care! I'll definitely bring my dog back here. read more

Amazing Vet and Staff! If I could give more stars on here I would! I've been to plenty of vets before since our sweet boy has so many allergies and nothing beats this place at all even considering it was our 1st visit here. Very kind, accommodating, and helpful. Thank you for taking care of our boy and being so professional! read more

We were taking both our dogs to Paramount Animal Care since they were puppies. Our youngest who is 10 months now had two baby cannine's she needed removed which should have been removed with her spay. When I inquired the cost to remove them they quoted me $779.86 which I thought was outrageous. So I talked to Dr. Mark on the phone about it and made an appt for him to take a look and see if he could do it around the $350 range. I brought her in and sat in the lobby, he never even looked at her teeth. The tech came our with another estimate that was in the $650 range. I said who approved this and she said Dr. Mark did. I called our old vet in Kimberly and they were willing to remove them for $175 and I called Settlers Veterinary and they would remove them for $225. Needless to say we changed vets to Settlers and found out there were also some unnecessary shots they didn't need, which amounts to more money for them. Our daughter also changed to Settlers too. Not saying Dr. Mark is not a nice guy, but after finding out what other vets costs were for the same thing, I'd say the money means more to him. read more

Starting off with a new veterinary clinic is always a little scary. Paramount made me feel right at home. The office was very friendly from beginning to end. Dr. Mark took all my needs and concerns into account while examining my cat(don't tell her she is a cat). Which as cat owners we know is not an easy chore. Not only did he do a thorough exam but with as little trauma to her as possible. She was less vocal than she has ever been and behaved better than expected. Not only will I be going back but I have found a new veterinarian that is AMAZING!!!! read more

I found Paramount Animal Care on yelp after calling another Vet who could not accommodate my Charlie for a nail trimming because they were to busy. I must say I am so Happy the last one didn't work out! I have nothing but great words for them. I walked in at my appointment time was greeted from a very sweet front desk lady, Tech came right out smiling looking for Charlie and within 10 minutes I was on my way home. Thank you, Thank you, I have found my forever Vet read more

We love Paramount Animal Care!! Dr. Mark is the absolute best! You can tell that he really cares about your animals. This is really important to me because I want to feel like someone else sees how special they are to us Their scheduling and availability is always been great. They've even worked us in, in an emergency situation once which I will forever appreciate. The other vets I've met there are great too and all the techs are total animal lovers and so friendly and capable! read more

The best Vet I have ever been too. Dr Mark and his staff go above and beyond and truly care about the well being of your pets. I trust what they say and have had nothing but positive experiences with them. I absolutely recommend them! read more

We love the crew at Paramount Animal Care. Our dog loves to go visit there. They are friendly and welcoming. They communicate wonderfully. They have taken care of all of pet needs urgent and yearly. read more

Avoid this place at all costs. I brought my snake in to get shed skin removed from her eyes caps and instead Dr. Fineman removed her corneas! I am now out $980 in snake vet bills because I have to get her eyes removed! if you have reptiles or exotic animals PLEASE do not take them here. My snake is permanently blinded because of the owner of this vet. Take your reptiles to Treasure Valley Vet in Nampa where they know what they're doing. I am trying to seek compensation for my losses but the way this office communicates is less than lackluster. Dr. said he "didn't know what happened" to her eyes but neglected to tell me she came home without freaking corneas!! read more

Dr.Mark and the Paramount Animal Care staff are the only ones I trust to care and treat my cat. Dr. Mark takes the time to talk to tell me about what's going on with my cat and provides quality, professional advice I can trust. They love the animals as if they are their own. read more

Feeling sick this morning. We have a cocker spaniel that has been suffering an ear infection. Very common for cockers, but hard to endure seeing her in such discomfort. I have been shopping for a good vet that genuinely cares about their patients. My neighbor gave me a solid referral to Paramount as she takes her German Shepard there. I called and they were booked out 45 days. I set the appointment up for Monday the 18th of October with a Christa or Christie. I stayed on the phone with her and wrote the date, address and office charge on my calendar. We thought it was odd not getting a confirmation call for the appointment on Saturday so before I left the house this morning I called. The same person answered the phone and to my horror she said they had no record of the appointment. She said it happens that sometimes things don't get entered in correctly. The only thing she could offer was an appointment in November. Do to the incompetence of the receptionist I am once again shopping for another Vet and my poor little friend has to sit in pain for God only knows how long. Customer service is dead. This place obviously only cares about getting your check or they would have worked something out. disgusted......I will be blogging about this till my fingers bleed. I am from Eagle Idaho Matt read more

Dr Mark and his staff are amazing! We brought in our new rescue dog from the ahumane Society for a checkup and he was SO thorough and took extra time to let us ask all our questions and guide us through this new adventure with our fur baby. They are incredible. They will be our vet for life. A+++ read more

Sadly, one of our pups passed away today. Dr. Fineman could not have been more compassionate, understanding, and kind. He met us at his office at 4:00 am to minister to our guy who has had serious chronic issues for years. I could tell that his love of animals runs deep as he treated our guy as if he were his own. He conducted himself with such grace and dignity that we felt comforted during the most painful moments in a pet owner's life. We will be forever customers of Paramount Animal Care. read more

Thank you for always being so cheery, kind, helpful and thorough! I will go nowhere else with my animals!

Dr Mark Fineman is an excellent veterinarian. We started seeing him for our basic vaccinations. Then we had an after-hours emergency for which he graciously met us at his office to perform a minor surgery. Dr. Fineman has a passion to help all animals. In addition to caring for his patients, he also gives back to the community by providing care to dogs from a local rescue. Whether you are looking for a vet for the first time or are not happy with your current vet, please give Paramount Animal Care a call. You will be happy you did! read more

We just had our first visit and had a very positive experience. Mark Fineman DVM is very knowledgeable and I was impressed with his speedy diagnosis'. His assistant Sarah was very helpful and friendly. He patiently answered all questions and provided us with options concerning our budget. I feel confident that we have made an excellent choice. read more

Unfortunately we had already suspected that our 17 year old cat was in kidney failure. The staff at Paramount is kind and let us hold the cat before having to have her put to sleep. They wrapped her in a blanket almost like a baby. Gave us all the time we needed. They gave her a sedative before bringing her to us, but it just calmed her. She still knew we were there. We were offered the option to take her home and give her subcutaneous fluids, but the vet said she would not likely last more than a couple of weeks if that. We have gone the home subcutaneous fluid route before with a cat of ours and it was miserable for all concerned, including the cat. They also made a paw print for us to remember Loretta by. The only bad part was that they were on the experience side of things. $100 just for mass cremation with no ashes returned. At the animal shelter it's only $10. There are two places that specialize in pet cremation where $75-$100 will get your pet cremated with the ashes returned if you wish. But even though Paramount was expensive, I will be taking my 15 year old dog there to see what can be done to help her arthritis. She's definitely not ready to be put to sleep yet the way she runs around at her age is something else. read more

My husband and I were referred to Dr. Mark Fineman via Melissa at Northwest Pets. After our visit, we have now found our favorite vet for sure. Very reasonably priced and does not try to take advantage of you. Great with people and your pets, just like we heard! Extremely pleased, and will refer whoever we can to him! Genuinely great guy and vet! read more

We love Paramount Animal Care! We have owned dogs for years and we chose them for our Golden Retriever puppy, Lucy. She loves going to the clinic and we have been very satisfied with her medical care and boarding. The staff is amazing, so warm and caring. The veterinarians are so knowledgeable and attentive. They listen to our concerns and make sure that we understand their plan of care. We are SO fortunate to have found such a wonderful place for our pet's care! read more

Amazing vet clinic! Everyone there truly cares about the animals and always know what my pets names are. The prices are responsible and worth every penny to have my fur babies in such good hands. read more

Chaotic and disorganized practice. They had incredibly haphazard scheduling and a complete lack of communication. They contacted me to get shots for my dog again, but then informed me that he didn't need it for another six months. That said, us and our retriever will not be returning. read more

We have been going to Paramount since it opened, and we love Dr Mark and his entire staff so much. They've helped us deal with our two wonderful cats who both have kidney disease. When our male cat became so ill we had to make the decision we so dreaded, Dr Mark was compassionate and helpful through the whole process. He really cares about his patients!! Recently Dr Hilary Pasi treated our other cat, Sophie, for what we thought was going to be the same diagnosis as her brother. We so dreaded having to face it again. Luckily, it wasn't! Dr Pasi was so good to work with. The whole staff is always friendly and so helpful. Paramount will always be our go-to clinic for our pet. We highly recommend this veterinary clinic to everyone. They are the best!! read more

Dr Fineman and his staff love their work and this is reflected by their compassionate care and loving attitudes towards their patients. I needed a vet to look at my ailing kitty. We were leaving town for two weeks the next day and she was in dire straits with some type of skin infection. I called my regular vet and couldn't get in (usually the case). They recommended contacting Paramount and I'm so glad they did! I was in Paramount's office two hours later and Dr. Fineman was awesome. He was very professional, very compassionate and I felt very comfortable putting my kitty in his capable hands. He offered several options to treat my kitty, and I ended up boarding her with his office to ensure she received her medication and that her condition was improving during my absence. She looked great when we picked her up two weeks later. We are happy to have found Dr Fineman, and we will be back. ] read more
