Unfortunately we had to put our dog Jynx down last night. They are the most caring, compassionate, and friendly staff. They made the process as simple as they possibly could for Jynx as well as for us. Dr Romero was kind and caring and listened to us without us feeling rushed. They care about each and every one of us and certainly made us feel that way. Again thank you al...

I could not have asked for better care for Anabel. Each and every staff member was kind, knowledgeable and willing to make the visit as smooth as possible. I trust the Gilbert facility with my precious baby girl.

There really are no words, to express our relief, he’s been my son’s dog for 7 years and they took immediate care, especially with him being out in the...

They are truly lifesavers. We had found a mom dog on the side of the road a hour from any town. She was in bad shape and once we got service we called them immediately. When we arrived they were there waiting to take the sweet mom and rushed her in. We can’t thank them enough for getting her the care she needs and getting her better so she can have a new loving home.

They've saved more than one pet of mine. They're very expensive but my pets are priceless. A few mistakes were made in billing and then I wasn't able to get the fentanyl patches I needed for my dog because the vet who wrote the Rx hadn't renewed their DEA license. However all of that is just clerical stuff that's easily remedied. Another vet rewrote the Rx and I went right...

Given the circumstances we were in, trying to find a diagnosis for our 16 year old cat who had significant pleural effusion, this emergency vet and cardiology speciality was amazing. They got us in the next day and they were able to get us answers. Unfortunately it was not the outcome we were hoping for and he was diagnosed with a lung tumor, however the care he and we rec...

Final edit: My trusted vet wholeheartedly agreed with your diagnosis and treatment and I've updated my review another star. Thank you all for being there for me during this rough time. All the best. Edit: My dog tested positive for ehrlichia by chance, and she was bleeding internally. Ehrlichia was dismissed as mild so I didn't bother to research it that day. We were...

Dr. Reed was outstanding....kind, patient, empathetic...very knowledgeable about my breed and potential issues. Called back twice to give results of tests and explain when I was unclear about something. Loved the facility and the gals up front, also.

Best pet boarding by far! Our dog is 13 years old and very anxious. With the care and attention of the outstanding staff at Tempe Lake Veterinary Clinic and Resort, we are able to vacation knowing that our precious pup is well taken care of! JoJo C. Scottsdale, AZ


The staff is caring and professional. They take great care of our dog during stays at the pet resort.

TLVC is amazing. The vets and staff love all the animals that come in and really take their time with each person and pet. I recommend this place to anyone that is looking for a vet or some place to board their pet. I don't live in AZ anymore, but I am so thankful for TLVC for the last 6 years I was there. They really helped me and the pets and I felt so at ease whenever I needed to come in.
