RecommendedWe had a very sick dog, we went though alot of vets trying to find the right fit. this vet office was by far the most personal and affordable. this is the only place I trust to take any of my pets.
We recently had to have our beloved Chance , golden retriever mix put down. He was 12 we knew his days were numbered but the doctors listened to us and explored many options before we had the “talk”. The day we put him down was one of the toughest and the staff really made us feel comfortable in knowing it was the right decision and that we have done everything we could do. With that being said we had him cremated and they had his ashes ready for us within 2 days which is a huge comfort, I just wanted him home. We were so sa... read more
When Lily (Chihuahua Terrier) and I moved back to Iowa 4.5 years ago, I asked my friend Carla if she would recommend a vet. She told me she had nothing but good experiences with Dr. Takes. I took her advice and we have been very fortunate to have Dr. Takes caring for Lily ever since. My friend passed away quite unexpectedly only 3.5 months after we moved back. She was a friend and loving parent to her fur friends and those of others and could have left us with no better gift than that referral. Many thanks to Dr. Takes and... read more
Starch Pet Hospital has been taking care of my pets for over 20 years. They're great. Honest and caring as the day is long.
I had to have my dog's tooth extracted due to a complicated tooth fracture. My primary vet referred me to Dr. Takes at Starch Pet Hospital. Dr. Takes made the entire experience as calming and as positive as possible. She was understanding of my concerns and answered all my questions with honesty and genuine knowledge and kindness. Dr. Takes is not my primary vet, but through my wonderful experience with her, I feel confident & happy knowing that I can trust my dog, Coco, with her the same as I trust my primary vet. The front... read more

Love this Clinic. All the Drs are AWESOME, although we usually see Dr Halligan. Thanks for taking such great care of our Babies.
We just moved to Texas so I could go back to school and have "found a vet" here but when my dog got hurt, my husband immediately told me to call our vet in Iowa. They truly are my dog's pediatrician (and my cat's geriatric doctor) and we would trust them enough to drive 11.5 hours if need be. Although there was a full schedule today, they still told me that if my dog's nose didn't stop bleeding, they would open a spot for us (she doesn't know that we live in TX). They truly care about pet families. Please take your pets here... read more
