I made an appointment with Tacoma Animal Hospital, because I could not get an appointment with my regular vet. Before the vet appointment, I kept getting a text from them, suggesting purchasing pet insurance, which made me feel as if this place is only in it for the money, so I thought of giving them the benefit of doubt, On the appointment date, everything seemed to be going well, we did not have to wait long. The tech came in, weighed him, I asked how much he weighed, and she had an attitude in her voice because she had to... read more

I find this practice absolutely disgusting and predatory, they will do everything they can to gouge you and run up as big of a bill as they possibly can. I brought my cat in for a non emergency visit and without asking permission or running anything past me used what I can only imagine was everything they possibly could on my animal and prescribed so much medicine and handed me a bill that could've been a down payment on a car. Nothing they did remedied the issues I was having with my cat and I was left with an unsolved prob... read more

I would give it a if I would rate the first class veterinarians. They are all wonderful with the animals and their humans. The front desk has a lot to lern though. The last two times, they messed my finances up badly. First time they did bloodwork that cost me $ 500, because they where'd include in my Paws plan. This time they charged me for 11 months of super expensive flea/tick prevention and bounced my account. They corrected it the next day after I called, but who is covering the overdraft fees? So, check your invoice b... read more

I really cannot believe this place. I took my cat here months ago because she was having seizures. the vet pressed on my cats stomach and said there is something in there, to which I replied no I don't think that's it. the vet quoted me $3k to do all these tests, and when I asked if we could start from the least expensive test and rule things out that way. the vet told me "if you don't do these things, your cat is going to DIE" very sternly and treated me like a negligent pet owner! I knew she didn't ingest anything so I to... read more

The receptionists are rude, and the wait times are long. My dogs appointment took 2 hours to get a prescription refill. The Dr tried to push $400.00 a month of "supplements" that were recommended and then got snotty when I refused them. On my second visit, my dog needed antibiotics, and they wanted to charge me $80.00 for them, so I asked to get a paper prescription. When I asked to get a prescription on paper, I was told that I would have to wait until the "Dr had time to get to it." I would never recommend this clinic sta... read more

I'm heartsick I just cannot believe the way we were treated. Worst experience of my pet ownership history we're talking decades. My dog had a loose baby tooth. The vet picked at his mouth and picked up the tooth, but didn't pull it. Next thing I know the Tech hands me a bill, , the proposal ...,,, we went in for his rabies vaccine. They told me at the front desk when I walked in to make my appointment that it would be $94 around. They did not tell me that the shot was extra and then they came up with all sorts of othe... read more

I completely value our veterinarians. I understand when you take your dog to the vet it's expensive. I only came here because it was urgent and my vet only takes appointments weeks out, they diagnosed my dog with an ear infection, like many other people said and allergies. It came out to around 2000$ dollars. For an ear cleaning. 500$ for allergy test which is standard. I know the anesthesia is expensive. But damn. They also tried to charge me for things my dog didn't need like rabies shot then I told them he didn't need tha... read more
