Pet Samaritan Clinic

Very Unprofessional. My experiences are as follows. Pet Samararitan canceled an appointment as they were getting their floors redone. I rescheduled. Day of second appointment, the clinic calls and says vet is sick and I need to reschedule for the following week but they will offer me a credit for half off because of previous 2 cancelations. Third week, I come in and have to wait over an hour to see the vet and yes they do not honor the credit even when reminded and agreed to upon entering the clinic that day. To top... read more

The quality of care is decent but this place is way overpriced. I purchased health care plans for both my kitties at $200 a pop. The plan gives you discounts on tests and procedures, office visits, x-rays, and some free annual vaccinations. I should have checked the regular prices first because they are all at least double what you would expect to pay. The quoted me almost $800 to have my older cat's teeth cleaned; $400 with the plan. I've been a pet owner for most of my life and I know for a fact that this procedure ge... read more

I first went to Pet Samaritan in 1993 and they have helped me with three pets with generally good experiences. What a disappointed on my return visit. I was expecting to see old friends and instead I was treated by a hostile front desk person who seemed less than interested in either my pet or my business. As I have spoken to others, I understand that this is not unusual. It pains me to say that a business I have trusted so much in the past is now both over priced and out of touch. Dr. Erickson may be great, but the rest- fr... read more

THE WORST EXPERIENCE. This was a few years ago, although I doubt things have changed. My 7-year-old kitty was diagnosed as diabetic. Can't remember the tech's name but he was a short little dude with glasses with a smarmy personality who gave me a lecture on my first visit about how if I touched my cat during care (I was just petting her, and NO I was not trying to "handle" her during procedures) and was injured they would get sued, etc. The vet who saw her the first time was a pretty nice guy (I think it was Voorhees...h... read more

I thought this place was just OK. I was a little annoyed because I read about all of the vets on their website then ended up seeing a different one entirely. Then, my follow up was scheduled with yet another vet. I don't like that. The office is clean, but looks a little old fashioned. I thought the care was pretty decent, but I also spent $400 (2 dogs) for an office visit and a few tests which I thought was a little hefty. So, I'm neither recommending it nor discouraging going there. Just don't expect anything great,... read more

I'm PISSED. This was my WORST business experience since coming to Portland over a year and a half ago. There is so much wrong with this vet that I don't know where to begin. Well, let's start with the interior. In the lobby there is a door completely smothered with colors and letters telling you you can win a cash prize by referring friends. Seems to me, if they want to refer you, they will, and if they refer you just for money, that's not right. On my first visit, an exam for my two new lop-eared bunnies, I was early bu... read more

Avoid. I made an appointment for a Saturday morning at 9:15 to haver our little puppy examined and vaccinated. My wife and I got up at least 1 1/2 hours earlier than we normally would on a Saturday in order to make it to the appointment. When we got to the clinic, we were told I had never made an appointment. The head receptionist, who reminded me greatly of Nurse Diesel in "High Anxiety", was rather rude and mentioned that people who had not been there before are not entered into the appointment calendar but into some s... read more
