Veterinarians in Portland

“Caring staff who do their best not to freak out my cat, and who don’t rush through appointments.“

“I switched to wildwood from a very long care with rose city vet since 2020. I was not happy w/ my dr/drs there when it came to my dogs senior care. they just kept giving me the same medications and hard to see one dr. Wildwood vet Dr. johnson listen to us carefully and had great solutions and if one thing didn’t work she offered another.
my senior pup I believed lived extra longer because of their care and suggestion of medications. He was not in pain and although I wished he lived little longer, I believe he left when he needed to and after my dog passed wildwood sent me a sweet sympathy card. I appreciate the detail and care. I will be going back to have them care for my 2nd pup. Thank you for great vet care with presto & many more to come! It is not easy to find trusted vet care.“

“I’ve been a loyal and faithful client at PD&C for almost a decade, and I simply can not express how impressed and grateful I am to the staff, techs, and doctors at this practice. The level of care is *exceptional*- I had a cat that suffered a nearly fatal coyote attack, two dogs with naproxen poisoning, and at least one round of intestinal parasites… and they’ve just taken the best care of my pets.

The front desk staff has become almost an extension of our family- Lita & Karla are so welcoming and warm- they remember details about our family and feel like they are invested in our whole family health. Drs Weinstein, Deremer, and Mallov are *exceptional* in their field. I trust and value this veterinary practice, and consider them friends. Very, very grateful for PD&C, and hope to count them among our most trusted providers for many years to come.

Update: we saw Dr Mallov recently for a diagnosis on my dog’s hip- he was SO gentle and knows my dog (blind/ arthritic/ and quite opinionated) so he and the tech (Rob- we love Rob.) were careful to treat him respectfully and keep him safe (dog can jump unexpectedly off of high surfaces).

I was pleased that my dog was comfortable and accommodating to the checking, and didn’t nip or grumble. We got a great diagnosis that won’t break the bank, and is a program that will both support our dog’s needs now and prepare us for possible concerns down the road. Our peace of mind is critical, and I SO appreciate that this practice won’t pressure you with a “hard sell” on services. They give excellent council, and really and truly care for our pets and… us owners too. I will always, always be grateful for this amazing veterinary practice in the heart of Kenton.“

“The team here is very compassionate and patient. I had good experiences both times I had to bring in my cat. The vet explained things to me and was very kind and understanding about financial concerns. I really felt supported in making decisions for my animal that honored both my situation and my cats needs. Ultimately, I had to make the hard decision, and the team was really as kind and wonderful as I could have hoped for.“

“Hi all, my boyfriend and I are here in Portland visiting his family and we have a foster pup that ate a corn cob, at the time we did not know what it was. Dr. Bruno recommended giving IV fluids to see if it would move the obstruction farther down and hopefully get his body to digest it. But with no success the rescue that saved him from a major kill shelter in Az decided to do surgery. Dr. Bruno did an amazing job with surgically removing the corn cob and sowing him back up. We are so thankful for him seeing us and taking on our situation. He is an incredibly busy doctor and was getting ready to leave town but saw us anyways. He is also a local vet which we love to support the local community. I called at least 10 other Veterinarian hospital's and it seems as though Portland has been taken over by coperate Veterinarian hospitals. Their prices for surgery start between $3,500 & go as high as $12,000 for just removing an obstruction. That is absolutely ridiculous and it seems as though they are just taking advantage of the general public because once it becomes all corporate people will have no where else to go. This Veterinarian is considerably less expensive than the corporate hospitals. Support this local Vet they are wonderful. Their staff are all great, very caring and also very helpful. Pat is the Vet Technician that did a great job with our foster boy. The other technician are also all wonderful. I can not say enough positive things about this local Veterinarian hospital.“

“The team has been really incredible! They so clearly know to take the very gentlest and kind care of my pet and talk me through all the options. The have been flexible with what works for me and my cat.
Honestly, if only human health care could be so 5-star!“

“Over 17 years, the Rose City crew took care of our loved cat. There was a time after moving to the west side that we went to other places, but never felt we got the same level of care that Rose City gave him. So, we started making the drive back to the east side, and so glad we did.

All the way to assessing his Quality of Life at the end, they treated him and us with dignity, the utmost care, and best intentions for his well-being. Special thank you to Drea, Dr. Beswick, and Hattie for the years of care, and to Dr. Taylor for walking us through his final stage; giving us the time to be with him and take him back home.

Couldn't give them any bigger recommendation for a veterinarian and care service. Thank you.“

“Wonderful vet tech and vet. They explained things well, were gentle and friendly with my cat, and were very willing to discuss pricing with us. We were looking for a new vet office and we've found one!“

“We moved to Cathedral a few years ago on the recommendation of a friend. We've seen several of their veterinarians and techs in that time. There's so much positive to say about our care at Cathedral. We mostly see Dr. Jenny - she's the best. She makes such a fuss over our pets, which I'm sure she does with all the dogs and cats but it makes us feel special. We've had some ups and downs with our pets over the years and she's always steered us in the right direction. Very grateful to have her. We also love the techs. We've worked with MJ most recently when our kitten was sick and MJ just seems so delighted to see her. I think they might love our pets more than we do LOL. I was in the clinic last week and one of the front desk staff, Libby, really likes dog. She drew the cutest picture on a sticky note that was an absolute likeness of our girl. It's now framed in our house. Libby also had a magic trick a few visits ago to get our dog to stop crying in the waiting room; she gave her a little bit of spray cheese on a tongue depressor and that kept our dog occupied while we waited to be roomed.

If you're looking for a new veterinary home, I'd suggest checking out Cathedral.“

“Best experience I've ever had! Highly recommend! 10/10!!! My dog really
Loved the staff and that's saying a lot for him.“

“They are very friendly and scheduled out appointment extremely fast i would recommended them to anyone who loves their pet!“

“I took my elderly cat in for her first appointment here today and I am so happy I did. The staff was cordial and Dr. Castle was very professional and helpful. The last vet my cat went to was not nearly as helpful and seemed to be more concerned with money than care of the animals, even going so far as to say they may not be the cheapest, but I should remember that you get what you pay for. While I understand that to an extent, I believe that was not the case with our now ex-vet clinic. I would happily pay the prices of the previous clinic for the care from this one.
Portland Animal Clinic was also able to give me her medicine right away unlike the other vet who sent me to a specialty pharmacy that was quite a ways away. I am ecstatic to continue my best friend's care with Portland Animal Clinic and Dr. Castle.“

“They are always friendly, patient, and very helpful. Great people, doing great things!!!“

“My beloved Malinois/German Shepard mix is highly anxious with unfamiliar places/people.
I decidedly to try Wildwood because they're close to my residence, and ,because they have the facilities to do not only basic wellness care but some surgeries as well.
I was concerned about my dogs mouth/teeth and it turns out she'll need surgery to remove 1-2 infected molars.
I was so grateful that the vet took the time to allow my fur baby to let's her surroundings and even let her check out the instruments before using them in the exam.
Doing this saved a huge amount of havehave are ty for both my dog and are you doing themto ou I 3andrea sets the stage for furthermore visits in a positive way.
Thanks Wildwood...You are awesome!
And by the way Nicole is the best assistant.girlfriend my self/is so loving to me meantime don't and tho I'd much better.Actually thoI m ugh myself turtogether ning fself girl“

“This review is long overdue. I have been a client of Animal dermatology for many years now. I have two older cats (siblings from the same litter) who unfortunately got the short end of the stick when it came to a unique case of allergies. I’ve had cats my whole life and this was the first time I’ve ever experienced cats with allergies. There were non-stop repeats of allergy flare ups that came with red, inflamed, and itchy skin in addition to mass hair loss on my cats. Unfortunately the treatments from our regular vet (who are great) were no longer having the same healing effects and the skin issues started to return in shorter intervals from the prior treatment. Our vet then referred our cats to Animal Dermatology. After some limited trial and error with Animal Dermatology, our cats have been really stable with the treatments provided by this clinic. Even with the occasional flare up, these vets have provided the necessary, temporary treatment to get them back to baseline. I will not sugar coat the cost, as this clinic is expensive. With that being said, the cost makes sense as these are specialists who truly are experts in their field. I cannot thank Animal Dermatology enough for not giving up on my cats and their difficult cases. Because of Animal Dermatology, my cats have been able to live longer, comfortable lives. Thank you!“

“A real special place where every employee truly cares. Thank you so much for what you do and the true empathy you showed me and Clyde earlier this week.“

“Love this place! Vista is the best place to take your fur family. They are caring and absolutely the best !“

“Everyone is very professional and nice. Have a bit of a kiddish cat and she loves them. Staff are attentive to pet needs. Been going here for about a year and everything going smoothly.“

“Great place...our last vet was always pushing expensive treatments and fat shaming our one food-motivated cat. This place is much more pragmatic and realistic. They have lots of good food choices for our two fur babies that have very different needs.“

“I moved to Portland a couple of years ago and did tons of research before choosing a vet for my senior cat, Sir Dudess Louise VonLichtenstein. I landed at Buckman Veterinary Clinic based on the glowing reviews.

They are certainly not the cheapest vet in town, but I truly believe in my heart that you get what you pay for. I would go hungry before taking my baby to a different vet.

Everyone on their staff is kind, caring, and a joy to interact with. Dr. Johnson is an angel, and Em is incredibly gentle and patient with my dramatic little Dude. Their responsiveness and follow-ups are impeccable, and they explain everything in so much detail that I never have follow-up questions.

I have been a pet parent for over 20 years, and this is by far the best veterinary practice I have ever visited. Do not let the few negative reviews scare you away. If you want the best care for your fur babies, this is the place to go.“

“I have been taking in stray cats since 2022, and have brought them all to halsey east. Dr Vockert and Dr Vidos are great. Very affordable for veterinary care, whether it's surgery, prescription, or just checkups. I have actually found that getting prescriptions here is cheaper than online, which is very convenient. They have a great team that is clearly very passionate about their work. I would not go to any other clinic.“

“All four of my cats receive care here. Usually, they're very quick about getting cats into exam rooms since it is a waiting room shared with dogs but once we did wait in the general waiting room for 5+ minutes. The parking lot is very small and sometimes full.“

“I adopted a new kitty with a strange, mystery bloated belly. Dr. Jawahir took great care and was extremely thorough in investigating Aoife’s belly issues. Turns out she is just fat, and has a weird little body! I appreciate the kindness and attention from all the staff at Powell Vet. The techs are fantastic, front desk is friendly and helpful, and Dr. Jawahir is going to see my cats hopefully for many years to come. Thanks to everyone who helped my beach ball bellied kitty!“

“Nice staff
I arrived with a serious ill CST, realized my error and took CST to Dove Lewis Emergency

Heartfelt staff was supportive and helpfully in my decisions

Dove Lewis was very well trained, understood card needs and explained my options.“

“This place has really turned around. The staff is really caring and work with you.
Only con is that it is expensive- but they do try to find ways to make it cheaper if you ask.“
