We could not be happier with the loving care that Dr. Henning has provided for our pets over the past seven plus years. Appointments are easy to make, staff is always on top of things, and treatment is promptly given. Dr. Henning is an exceptional vet who has a genuine concern for each animal and communicates clearly in a reassuring manner. If you love your pet, you will love this clinic!
Business response:
Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Marie. The qualities you described are the goals we strive to achieve for all of our clients. On behalf of the staff, thank you for trusting us with your pets’ care for years!
We see Dr Takes, she’s incredible! She gives great advice and cares so much for her clients! ( I do wish that she was at University West all the time though)! Starch is less convenient, more travel time to get there.
Business response:
Thank you so much for your kind comments. We appreciate it.
rushed our 4.5 month old puppy to Starch last week with a blockage in her intestines. within 2 hours of dropping her off, she was in surgery, obstruction removed, and baby girl was on the mend. we cannot thank dr Henning and the entire staff enough for their passion and knowledge of our animals. they saved our pup!! THANK U!!!
I have been to several vet clinics within the Des Moines and West Des Moines area. Starch Animal Hospital is by far the best one I have been to and they have the most reasonable prices. Dr. Henning is the best. During a time of distress, he listened, comforted, and truly cared about my concerns and pet. I can't thank him enough for the support and understanding he has shown me. I would recommend this vet to anyone with a pet. <333
We love the vets here!! Dr. Halligan is one of our favorites, but they are all amazing. We have brought our pets here for over 20 years. We live in Altoona, but choose to come here!!!
We have found them to be super helpful and always willing to listen to our questions even when they are a bit over the top. We have a lab and two golden doodles who are happy to make a visit.
Excellent service, they truly care for our cats.
The staff at Starch Pet Hospital truly care about the animals and humans who come to them! They are quick and efficient while still giving you personal attention. We've been going to Starch for a long time and I recommended them often. It's clear they are shameless animal lovers and I love that. From a business standpoint, the fees are reasonable. Starch is upfront about costs. Our menagerie has had surgical and extensive treatment situations come up and we've always received a detailed treatment plan, including costs, and a... read more
