After visiting many veterinary clinics in Ferndale, Lynden, Bellingham, Mount Vernon, and the surrounding areas, I can honestly say that Dr. Searle is one of the best veterinarians I have ever met.
Dr. Searle is incredibly thorough during his examinations, and his after-visit summary is by far the most detailed, well-organized, and easy-to-understand report I have ever received.

I sadly only got to bring my cat there once before he passed - this was not the vet's fault; the cat had an aggressive and untreatable cancer that took him just a few weeks after it was discovered.

He found the tumor very quickly and delivered the bad news with a perfect blend of reality and compassion. Though the cat's life could not be saved, Dr. Searle did a great job equipping me to make his last weeks as comfortable...read full review
