BARC, thank you for giving us 6 more months than we planned with our perfect pup! When he was diagnosed with late stage hemangiosarcoma found in his heart, which meant it had likely entered his blood stream. Where an emergency clinic told us treatment was not worth it and we likely had a week max left with our boy, we sought a second opinion with you all and got an amazing 6 more months of an amazing quality time with our boy. You were able to provide a range of treatment options and everyone in your staff was so wonderful along the way. I was brought to tears when we picked him up from his last chemo session and you had gotten your staff to sign a bandana with congratulations.… read full review
About Veterinary Cancer Specialty Care @ Bridge Animal Referral Center
Bridge Animal Referral Center (BARC) is a specialized veterinary facility in the Seattle area known for its exceptional oncology care. The center excels in communication, ensuring pet owners are informed and actively involved in their pet's treatment plans.
BARC is widely recognized as a leading oncology center, offering comprehensive imaging services, including X-ray, ultrasound, and on-site radiologist interpretation. The dedicated team at BARC provides top-notch care for a variety of pets, including cats and dogs. They work collaboratively with referring veterinarians to create the optimal care team for each pet.
Recent reviews highlight the center's outstanding care and attention to detail, with many pet owners expressing gratitude for the effective treatment and kindness of the staff. One reviewer mentioned that their 16-year-old cat with GI lymphoma has been kept in check for about 1.5 years, and they find visits to the oncologist surprisingly enjoyable. Another praised Dr. Tripp and Bree for their professionalism, quick communication, and genuine concern, especially in managing complex treatments and new health issues like sarcoma and pericardial effusion.
While BARC's specialized care is highly regarded, pet owners should be aware that routine vaccinations and treatments can be expensive. For non-oncological concerns, local veterinarians may offer more cost-effective options.
BARC offers convenient scheduling and pet drop-off options, including curbside and lobby drop-off. Despite the cost, the center is highly recommended for its expertise in oncology, detailed imaging reports, and efficient service.
Reviews
BARC was there for our family when we needed it most. We were a patient there for the final 5 months of our sweet dogs life and BARC provided a very high level of service, care and respect to our dog and our family. We are happy to have them in Edmonds and will recommend them if and when that time comes for the folks in our life. Thank you for helping us get through this hard time and supporting us to the very end.
I originally left a review expressing my disappointment with the discharge process after my dog's procedure.

Since posting that review, I was contacted by both the clinic administrator and my pet's veterinary oncologist. They took the time to listen to my concerns, thanked me for bringing them to their attention, and had a thoughtful conversation about my experience.
What impressed me most was that they expedited creating discharge instructions and staff teaching. They explained… read full review
