Our little Maltipoo, Vegas, was having a rough 2024. He was diagnosed with Cushings which brought…read moreabout Diabetes in February and March. It took our local vet about 8 weeks to get his medications dialed in. Once done, he was like a puppy again (he was between 11-13 years old - rescue so we are unsure). Fast forward to November. We noticed issues with him being able to see. We went to our local vet and he diagnosed cataracts in both eyes. They recommended VOSP in St. Louis Park. So our first appointment came and we were taken into the exam room right away (after we finished the original paperwork). Alecia was the first vet tech we met (forgot to mention Nicole out front, she was awesome) and she was so good with Vegas. He immediately took to her and that made things so much easier. Doctor Olivero came in and shook hands. He was someone that you could immediately like and feel like you could trust. He did a number of tests on Vegas' eyes and said that he was a good candidate to take out the cataracts and put in new lenses. The choice was to do the surgery, or let Vegas go blind and deal with that. We felt, since he was a good candidate, that we should go for the surgery. That was scheduled for the next week. We came up VERY early the day of the surgery (it's an hour drive up and we had to be there by 7:00 am). Nicole got us checked in and I believe Gerri came out and got him. I went and worked remotely for the next 7 hours. I got a call back from the Doc and he said Vegas did very well and he would be ready to go home in a short period of time. We came up the next day for his one-day check up and found his eye pressures were a little high. So they gave us a very well-written schedule of what drops/pills were to be given when. It made things so easy. Needless to say, Doc did everything he could, but our dog threw almost every complication at him that was possible. Doc had him under control and his vision was returning which was awesome. Unfortunately, because of the other things Vegas had going on, he developed Pancreatitis followed by diabetic kidoacidosis which was unrecoverable and we put our dear Vegas down on 12/10/2024. Doctor Olivero and all of his staff are complete professionals. Beyond that, they are very empathetic and felt as if their patient was their own pet. Doc went above and beyond, even coming in on a day off to check on Vegas. His bedside manner with Vegas was top notch. He did a wonderful job of explaining everything he was doing and gave great handouts that they wrote explaining everything. Gerri, Alecia, Karen and Nicole are amazing ladies. They show great empathy and make us feel so comfortable. You can't go wrong going to this clinic. They are amazing. If it weren't for our fur baby's underlying issues, we'd have a new dog being able to see again. Thank you VOSP for all your work.

Our Yogi maltipoo developed a big brown lump under his eye. Our vet started some initial treatment…read morewhich wasn't effective and then referred me to Dr. Olivero. Walked into the clinic and Nicole greeted us, respected the fact that Yogi wasn't in the mood to make friends. Technician came out and took us to an exam room - got down on her knees to make friends as did Dr. Olivero when he came in. Conducted some tests, shared not cancer but suggested surgery to remove the mass - -scary! Answered all my questions and then suggested we both think over the information and talk again on Monday. My mind wrapped around surgery as the best option, it was very successful, and Yogi is back to his energetic, playful self. The entire staff is friendly, respectful and it was very evident that they all cared about both of us. On the last visit Dr. Olivero got down on the floor to give Yogi a treat - he wasn't interested. Dr. Olivero mentioned he had some deli turkey in the refrigerator, came back with a few choice pieces and laughed when Yogi gently took it from his fingers. 2 months have passed since the surgery and there have been no additional issues. Very thankful for the skill and care of animals and their owners.

We just had our first visit to Modern Love Veterinary and Dr. Michelle Donald. While the reviews…read morethat led us here were mostly glowing, there were a couple that said their experience was rushed or impersonal. That could not have been further from our experience. Dr. Donald had reviewed all of Mabel's history, performed a comprehensive exam, and discussed her condition (Mabel had pneumonia - she's okay now). She was thorough and straightforward, didn't talk down to us, and made sure we understood everything. That's what you would expect from a good vet. What we didn't expect was that she took time to get to know us as pet parents. She was warm and friendly throughout, and spent probably double the amount of time we would have expected. This is the best vet experience I think we've ever had.

My boy did his usual best to charm the Veterinarian and her Assistant. Inside, the clinic is clean and inviting. As soon as we arrived, we were brought to one of the examination rooms. This gave my cat a chance to get used to the sights, smells and sounds of the room before his examination and rabies vaccination. While there, my concerns and questions were listened to and addressed. I never felt we were rushed through during and after the visit. Also, when I emailed some questions I thought of the next day, I received a response in a timely manner with attached information i requested. The bonus is that the clinic is close by in our neighborhood so there's much less travel trauma time for my cat. We'll definitely go back there.​

Each of the occasions were at the opposite ends of the veterinary needs spectrum, one to euthanize an old dog in failing health, and the other to do a health check on a recovered abandoned dog, and each time the service, care, and compassion were of the highest quality. I recommend True Companions VetVan for your veterinary needs.

They provide expert advice that doesn't feel pushy. They're happy to provide quotes for services (e.g., dental care) so you can make an informed decision. I first reached out to them in fall 2020, a week after I adopted my cat. He hurt himself, and I hadn't established vet care for him yet. Despite not being a patient at the clinic, Minnepau squeezed in an appointment for him the next day. I was so grateful and impressed. They did a great job adhering to COVID protocols, too. The space itself is welcoming and set up to make the experience as comfortable as possible for your pet. The exam rooms have a homey feel. There's a parking area behind the building, which is very convenient. Knowing I'll have a place to park makes the experience of transporting my cat much less stressful.

I cannot say enough good things about this veterinary clinic. I would trust them with my life (and…read moremy pets' lives!). Every single one of the staff members is so kind and considerate. They all clearly love animals, and work hard to provide the best care possible. I also think they're very affordable compared to other vets, which is shocking given their amazing quality. I expected a much bigger bill, and was pleasantly surprised by the cost of my cat's SURGERY. I've recommended this place to everyone I know that has pets, even if they don't live nearby. I will never go anywhere else. I should also note that when I was initially looking for a vet, I was "researching" by reading Yelp reviews. Minnepau only has a few (although all good) reviews, so it might get overlooked! I don't remember seeing it on the list when I was doing my research. I ended up hearing about Minnepau from Dr Blake (a home vet I also trust very much). Hopefully someone will see this review on Yelp so they know to take their fur babies here. Here's a story about how they went above and beyond for me personally: I have a cat that is quite possibly the most anxious cat on the planet. After her sister's last vet appointment she screamed bloody murder at the smell of us when we returned home, and then hid under my bed for 72 hours, didn't eat, and even peed under there. Then for the remaining WEEK she screamed every time she saw me or her sister. It was a whole ordeal that scared me to death. So when her sister had to go back to the vet this week for surgery, I asked Minnepau if I could bring in the anxious cat too so they wouldn't get separated and smell different, which we think is what caused the freak-out last time. They said of course, and they reserved a private room for us to sit in while they did her sister's procedure. They were so kind and accommodating even though I brought a screaming, anxious cat that wasn't even their patient into their building. We sat here for HOURS and took up their time and caused quite the ruckus, but they were so nice and brought us a litter box and treats and even helped me clean up her cat carrier. They did everything they could to help a pet they weren't even supposed to treat today! I just know my bringing the world's most anxious cat to their office was a nuisance. She peed and pooped in their room, she screamed at everyone she saw and at every noise she heard, but they were kind, generous, and respectful regardless. AND the rooms are so peaceful and calming that my anxious cat decided to venture out and join me on a chair, which I NEVER would have expected. WILD. I attached a picture of the cute exam room and a picture of my anxious cat sitting calmly on a chair. These are the kindest people on the planet. I owe a million apologies and thank yous to them for how well they took care of BOTH of my cats even though they were only treating one. THANK YOU Minnepau. Again, can't recommend enough.

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.

I have German Shepherd dogs and they didn't seem comfortable or able to properly give them the care they needed. They acted nervous and afraid to give them the care they needed and therefore my GSD didn't get the care he needed from this office. I brought my dog to Rockford Road Animal Hospital and it was a completely different experience. The vet techs and veterinarians there understood how to deal with this breed and were able to treat him and give him the care he needed. Whereas at Northwest Animal Hospital they "tried" treating him and were not able to and sent us away causing us to spend more money on additional appointments which resulted in my dog getting a delayed medical diagnosis he needed. I wouldn't recommend Northwest Animal Hospital for breeds of dogs that can be a bit more challenging. It's all about the approach and it was a day and night experience with Rockford Road Animal Hospital compared to them. I will continue bringing my cats there but I won't be bringing my dogs there again.
