Veterinarians in Rio Rancho

“I had to put my 15 yr old Willie Kitty to sleep yesterday. The team here was very compassionate, kind and professional. The cost was very affordable. My vet was closed and I got a referral from a friend and am very grateful I found them. Thank you so much for helping us during an extremely difficult time.“

“Amazing staff! Kind. Compassionate. The woman at the front desk was amazing. I’m so thankful for all the staff that worked on my dog. Wonderful place. Highly recommend it!“

“Absolutely love this place and I’ve only been there once, so far. Left them a message to make an appointment because my dog has been having seizures for the past few years and the other vet I was going to did nothing about it. My dad referred me to sunrise cause he takes his dog there. They were able to somehow get me in that day- which is much appreciated. Dr. Abernathy is great, well educated and caring. He explained to me that putting my dog on a seizure medication would hopefully help him in the future- which is way more than the other vet did for me. The staff there is awesome and friendly. Was a great price too. I’m so happy I finally found my pets a good, trustworthy vet. Highly recommend.“

“This review is very overdue. It's now the one year anniversary of when Dr. Trujillo and Dr. Hale diagnosed a dog that I had been desperately trying to save. I had picked him up in Alabama, literally starving to death. He unfortunately wasn't my first starvation case, but sadly his condition was far more complicated than that. Other veterinarians ran multiple tests and gave iffy answers, they tried different diets and medications; one even wanted to do exploratory surgery to see why he couldn't keep food down. This upset me greatly because I doubt he would have survived that. Dr. Trujillo and Dr. Hale ran some labs, asked a lot of questions, and came back with some idea of what was going on. He had an obstruction of the duodenum. They got us scheduled shortly thereafter for emergency surgery at Roadrunner. I was so elated to have an answer. We were all hoping that he had eaten something he shouldn't have while scavenging and that removing it would save him. Just to finish out the story, Oreo did not live. But these vets were correct about where the problem started. Unfortunately, it was tumors all the way down and there was no way to save him. But they were so compassionate and tried so hard for my Oreo. I couldn't have asked for more. Also, Dr. Trujillo made time to put one of our elderly cats to sleep when he took a downturn. I appreciate her greatly for not making him wait days to pass peacefully. Another doctor we love is Dr. Moulton. She has taken great care of several of our cats. Tooth extractions, bladder stones - you name it. She also takes great care of Bear, the dog we adopted after Oreo passed. Bear is a unique fella. He had knee surgery at Roadrunner, and Dr. Moulton keeps him pain-free with arthritis meds and keeps his seizures at bay. She also did great aftercare on our dog, Cubba, after he was attacked at a dog park (Roadrunner stitched him up since it happened on a weekend). He had several sites with stitches and Dr. Moulton was there for us anytime we had questions or concerns. We love all of the staff at Zia. They know our pets, they know us, and they are there for us when we need them. I couldn't recommend this veterinary office more!“

“Five stars is not enough.

Mesa Grande Animal Clinic in Rio Rancho is the best veterinary clinics I have ever experienced.

From the moment you walk in, you can tell this place operates differently. The front desk staff are warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind, not just polite, but truly caring. They remember you, they remember your pet, and they treat you like family rather than just another appointment on the schedule.

The doctor is absolutely amazing. He is an angel of a human being. Treated my dog like if it was his. What really sets Mesa Grande Animal Clinic apart is their compassion.

It is rare to find a clinic where trust comes so easily, but Mesa Grande has earned it completely. If you are in Rio Rancho and want the absolute best care for your pet, this is the place to go. I would not trust my dog with anyone else.“

“oh God Dr Abernathy how we miss you! I hope that you see this message And hope that you are doing well.“

“My dog Panda loves this place, and so do I. When Panda realizes where we're going he gets so excited and can hardly wait to get inside! The staff and the doctors are so kind, gentle, knowledgeable, friendly and thorough. My boxer is 10 years old and has been coming here since he was a little puppy! When we walk in he goes straight to the scale and sits right down so I can call out his weight for the check in process.“

“Website listed under RR Animal hospitals is false as they don't have one; I was told this by Dana at front desk so don't give personal info. via online. Best to just call. Small business and excellent Dr. will soon retire which explains less hours that are available. They have offered for our pup good wellness care, and shots plus routine heartworm med. were affordable. Front desk help is so informative with issues that were resolved often over the phone. FYI- though for emergencies, you will be referred elsewhere.“
