Over the past few months, our 3.5‑year‑old dog faced several serious health challenges, including being diagnosed with Addison's Disease, and Dr. Vannini guided us through each one with compassion, patience, and unmatched expertise. She and her team cared for and healed our dog, educated and supported us throughout, and ultimately saved his life. Dr. Vannini's wisdom, depth of knowledge, and calm, thoughtful approach are truly exceptional. She takes the time to listen, explains every option clearly, and blends data‑driven diagnostics with seasoned intuition and hands‑on experience. We never felt rushed and always knew every decision was made with our dog's best interest at heart. We cannot recommend Dr. Vannini and the Truckee Donner Veterinary Hospital team highly enough. Their dedication, clear communication, attention to detail, and loving kindness gave us complete confidence and peace of mind during an incredibly stressful time. Dr. Vannini is an extraordinary professional, and we are forever thankful for her role in our dog's recovery and ongoing health. Her expertise, compassion, and unwavering commitment to her patients make her truly exceptional, and we are deeply grateful for the care she and her team have given us.

Cooper's a thirteen-year-old mini-Aussie with anxiety, and Dr. Math and the rest of the staff (Sierra, Madi, Sheridan, and Caroline specifically) always make us feel so comfortable and well taken care of. Dr. Math is the BEST vet I have ever had. She always makes sure to be thorough without sounding condescending, and you can tell she really cares not only for the pets and their health but also for her clients. I have never had a bad experience taking Cooper to see Dr. Math, and I'm so grateful we have her to help us through the next chapter of his aging life. Thank you, Dr. Math, and Doctors Office for Pets!

Prices should be fair and the mark up should not be more than 3 times the actual cost. They also tried to charge me for a cone when my dog can't lick its back so I declined that too.

Doctor Mitchel was so personable and really nice so that was a plus. I do appreciate the care my dog received! They also took us in as an emergency and gave excellent service! We definitely look at reviews before services so I hope this helps multiple people!

We expected a 2-3hour wait but they were able to see her in about an hour . The dr's technician was thorough and kind and when Dr. Buckton arrived he took the time to explain her possible condition and answered our questions about cost of a conservative treatment or aggressive treatment. We chose the conservative antibiotic treatment and by the end of the next day the blood in urine had cleared completely. The only issue we have is his office is too far away to be able to use for all of Bailey's needs! Thank you to the whole office!

Dr. Robinson and Dr. Stewart are really just amazing, and they squeezed our little adoptee into their already packed schedule and took her on as a patient. When she got sick, they got her in the same day, and helped assuage our worries. When we had to take her to the emergency clinic in Reno on a Sunday, Dr. Robinson answered texts and sent lab results to them. What vet answers texts on a Sunday? Oh, that's right, Dr. Wendy. If I could, I would take all of my animals to this clinic.

I have had to talk to countless vets over the past 3 months dealing with my dog's cancer diagnosis,…read moreand Dr. Hartzel was the first that communicated promptly, directly, and honestly with me. I was planning on taking my dog to Tahoe and wanted to find a vet just in case her health took a turn for the worse while we were there. Dr. Hartzel called me back within an hour of my calling him on a Friday afternoon. He told me his schedule, listened to my concerns, and gave me his opinion based on his information and experience dealing with this disease in other dogs. We did not end up meeting because he made it clear that it would be best to keep my dog in the Bay Area without the trauma of a car ride to the Tahoe area, and that turned out to be really good advice. In just a ten minute phone call he prepared me for what ended up being a very fast decision to euthanize my sweet girl, which is something none of her other vets, including her oncologist, was straightforward enough to prepare me for. Very grateful for his call and hope to meet Bruce under better circumstances next time.

From the moment I called, the experience was incredible. Their receptionist/assistant was compassionate, listened to my concerns, and offered me the choice of an appointment for the next day or bringing her in immediately for their emergency services. Once I arrived, I met Dr. Jasan Ghuman, who was both compassionate and attentive. We discussed the various possibilities for why my cat was in this condition, and I later met Dr. Gia Kingston, who was equally caring and empathetic. They thoroughly assessed the situation and clearly advised me of my options. I have been a pet owner for many years and have seen numerous veterinarians, but I have never experienced such focused attention, genuine concern, and sincere compassion until now. As new patients, they got us in immediately, took excellent care of my cat, and were also incredibly supportive of my emotional state during such a stressful time. Having lived in North Lake Tahoe for 31 years, I have experienced many services in this area, but I have truly never encountered such a high level of customer service and genuine compassion as I did with this team. Dr. Ghuman and Dr. Kingston are both exceptionally skilled, highly professional, and truly dedicated practitioners who lead with their hearts. I have 100% faith in them and their entire team. I never thought I would switch practices, but I can proudly say that Agate Bay Animal Hospital is now my permanent veterinarian. This was truly the best experience I have ever had with a vet
