1st Pet Veterinary Centers - Mesa

My little fur baby was very ill and after not much improvement over the week by a vet, I wanted a second opinion. Took my baby into this vet last Friday and asked to be seen. I was walked back to a room at the rear of the building. Discussed the situation for an exam and possibly euthanasia. The assistant took my girl to the vet. Brought her back in about 10 minutes and said "she was not that far along yet"! Never saw the vet. "Take her back to my other vet" . Showed me how to exit. My sweet girl passed away yesterday, Sunday at a local urgent care. She was in such a bad condition, emaciated that a blood panel could not be taken. The triage vet and her assistants showed so much empathy and did everything for us to the end of her little Fist Pet... What an uncaring, pitiful excuse of a animal hospital.

I want her to get some antibiotics for my dog because he had a dental appointment in 3 days and I want to make sure there was no infection . The medication caused my dog to go on a seizure so I brought him straight back to the clinic the same doctor wasn't on staff. And the doctor on staff snapped at me"I'm going to need at least $1,000 before I even look at him cuz he's crashing"!? So I went to the VCA hospital on country club 24 hour they've taken good care of my dog named you before and they're awesome but the particular person on staff was very nasty. I have called ahead and couldn't get an answer and she claims that they didn't have any room for him! So I then took them to the emergency veterinary hospital in Gilbert and they went above and beyond taking care of him and I think they're awesome they deserve five stars & LOTS OF HUGGS & BLESSINGS ❗

We brought our Great Dane in while he was in the beginning (and crucial) stage of BLOAT. He was seen immediately, received x rays and bloodwork and a full workup to see if he could be saved with surgery. Fortunately it was caught early and he was transported to their surgery hospital in Chandler. Both facilities took excellent care of him and he made a full recovery.

This is a great vetranary place. 1st experience was with a dog that was having heart failure. They did what they could to save her and we had to put her down. 2nd experience was with our current dog. He was having digestive issues. The facility the thoroughly evaluated him and made recommendations. They definitely did not push me to make any expensive choices. My wife and I chose some medicine and a stool evaluation. We both feel there recommended next steps were very good. Our dog responded great with the medicine and is doing well. The staff appears to be very well trained with handing your pets needs. I would highly recommend this place. I am sure we will be back and we are referring friends.

I’ve taken all of my pets here over the years, and the care has always been exceptional. About five years ago, my 13-year-old dog was being treated by another vet for valley fever, but her health was rapidly declining. I brought her to Dr. Lingren, who carefully reevaluated her condition, adjusted her medications, and brought her back to health. I truly believe she saved her life. Another time, a newly adopted dog came home from the pound with kennel cough that turned into pneumonia. The team here acted quickly and effectively—they saved him, too. When my elderly dog was nearing the end of his life, the staff showed incredible compassion. They allowed us all the time we needed to say our goodbyes and welcomed our entire family, including our other dog, so we could be with him as he passed. They even gave us a beautiful card afterward and saved his favorite blanket for us to keep. The kindness, professionalism, and genuine care they’ve shown my animals—and my family—over the years is something I’ll always be grateful for.
