East Maryland Animal Hospital
Phoenix, Arizona
General Info
East Maryland Animal Hospital delivers to Phoenix families and those across Arizona a veterinary approach that harmonizes spatial comfort with behavioral patterns to support natural instincts. Initial veterinary appointments typically start in quiet zones where pets can investigate their surroundings or become comfortable. Staff members meticulously monitor potential indicators such as tail positioning, pawing actions, and sound reactivity. In physical examinations, veterinarians assess coat condition alongside pulse rate and hydration levels while also checking jaw symmetry and gait patterns and observing the pet's response to proximity. Veterinarians meticulously record every small detail when examining animals who are new to medical environments or have previous traumas or show resistance during handling. East Maryland Animal Hospital offers an array of services including diagnostic evaluations, surgical planning sessions, wellness examinations, mobility assessments, parasite prevention measures, and breed-specific wellness forecasting. The progression of care plans depends on each pet's response to physical touch and changes in routine as well as their reaction to the clinic's environmental signals including lighting conditions room transitions and sound levels. This technique proves especially beneficial for pet-owning families whose members either struggle with social interactions or excel through repetitive activities. The design of follow-ups attempts to align with both individual household schedules and the inherent rhythms of pets. Pet owners get detailed step-by-step explanations for each decision which transforms them from passive observers into fully engaged participants in their pet's care process. East Maryland Animal Hospital provides Phoenix pet owners and those in nearby Arizona areas with a care framework based on attention, rhythm, and shared understanding which allows each visit to develop more naturally and calmly.

We have been going to East Maryland for more than 8 years. The first dog we took there had lots of complex medical issues and Dr. Wendy Schroeder helped us navigate through them, referring us to specialty vets when needed. We are now seeing Dr. Schroeder with a 4-year-old dog who is far healthier but the level of commitment and quality of care remains at the same high level. One of the best recommendations, though, comes from both past and present dogs, who walk into East Maryland with tails wagging and are happy to see Dr. Schroeder.

Very friendly and informative staff that really do care about the well being of your pet and not as much about the amount of money coming out of your pocket. The doctor recommended watching the sores rather than trying to pressure us into getting an expensive skin sample right away. I really respect that because she had an idea of what it might be and said, "let's watch it" when I am normally use to "we need skin samples and that will be $200 please and thank you.

I know I might be biased but I want everyone to know I work with a great bunch of folks. Dr Schroeder and Dr Martens both somehow balance being full time moms and full time doctors. They are caring and devoted to all the pets and their families. Haley our practice manager works hard to keep us on tract paying the bills and all that unfortunate money stuff while still having a kind soft spot for all the fuurry kids. My techs are top notch. They work extremely hard for 3 demanding doctors. Somehow they artfully balance between caring for the pets, the pet parents, the time demands, and their own sanity. Our receptionist do an impossible job of answering phones, greeting clients as they walk in the door, checking people in and out, answering everyone else's questions and demands, and wearing a smile. Keith, head of kennel, wears many hats including plumbing, maintainence, expert angry pet holder (with the most calm and gentle demeanor I've ever seen in over 20years as a veterinarian) and tech assistant. We often refer to him as the cat whisperer. The rest of the kennel staff are a group of caring people that notice even the smallest things and alert the doctors asap. They also clean, stock, hold, and do just about anything we ask them to. The entire staff has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and we are always striving to do things better. I am privileged to work with them Dr. Ann Clemons,MDVM

Our puppy was having a bit of pain after stumbling up a step and we wanted to make sure it wasn't serious. Our vet, Dr. Clemmons, recommended unnecessary testing for a fungal infection that our puppy *didn't even have any symptoms of.* She also convinced us to get an x-ray and radiology report thinking that the pain from the area she hurt was actually back pain, shared the results of said report by adding a very extreme interpretation that *wasn't in the report,* and told us that our 1-year-old puppy would need permanent pain management, daily doses of NSAIDs, and annual blood tests, and to stop all activity such as running, jumping, and playing (basically anything other than walking) for a condition that ended up *resolving on its own within 24 hours* before the vet even had the chance to write a prescription for Metacam. Talk about overreacting.
I wrote this review on other sites and EMAH responded by inaccurately stating that the vet simply "added the radiologist's recommendations into her treatment plan." This is just not the case. They also attributed my puppy's improvement to NSAIDs--even though she improved *before taking it* while we were waiting for the prescription.
At least they are consistent--they hear what they want to hear and say what they want to say, regardless of facts. It's sad because the first vet we saw at EMAH seemed good.
If you MUST go to EMAH, please cross-reference any recommendations or diagnoses (aka scare tactics) against industry best practices. Remember that animals, like humans, are strong and robust and their bodies are inherently adaptable before making drastic changes in response to extreme interpretations of tests. Getting a second opinion from another veterinarian if something seems off is always a good idea and ESPECIALLY so with EMAH. It's always a good idea to advocate for your own pet--the veterinarian we saw at EMAH certainly didn't.

Aside from being overpriced, and recommending unnecessary and overpriced tests (even when the animal doesn't show *any* symptoms) to "rule things out", these vets also interpret radiology reports *very* differently than how the radiologist did (yes, I asked for a copy). They are really quick to recommend really unnecessary measures (such as *daily* pain medication and annual blood tests for a puppy...for something that ended up resolving itself within two days). They also are very inconsistent--one vet told us our dog had to lose 4 to 5 pounds (after giving her three or four treats, without even asking if she could), and then after she lost 1 lb., the same vet said her weight was perfect (just moments after the vet tech said she had to lose 2 more lbs.) They just really don't know what they're doing. I'd really recommend finding a better vet, because if East Maryland Animal Hospital is your go-to, you're better off not going in at all.

We've been with East Maryland for almost 20 years! We absolutely LOVE Dr. Schroeder and the entire staff is great. When our beagle puppy, Abby, was first vaccinated eons ago, she had a terrible reaction, but Dr. Schroeder was able to actually "bring her back to life" the moment it occurred. Abby's done great ever since with absolutely no ill effects. Even though the vet location is no longer convenient for us, we wouldn't think of going anywhere else!

I have gone for years but will never go again. The only good thing about this visit was the receptionist. The vet assistant was unfriendly, borderline rude.The vet was worthless. Seriously? You can't find my dogs pulse? You think my dog is too noisy to hear her heart? Then why did I PAY $60??? You can't do anything! You have to look everything up online? I can do that, and have, at home. Why should I pay you to research potential problems online? This was not the Vet I have seen in the past. I want a refund!! You did NOTHING!!!! I am so angry with the incompetence of the visit I am spitting fire! Complete waste of time any money! Seriously I want my $60 back.

Extremely satisfied with Dr. Martens. She immediately got down to eye level with our dog and connected with him and me. She was warm, engaging, knowledgeable, and compassionate when she could have been judgmental. Our dog has been suffering for months because we thought it was too expensive to treat him. We are all relieved Dr Martens found a solution that fits our budget.

We have had both of our Boxers cared for by I believe every doctor at East Maryland at one time or another over the last 3 years. I have always been 100% confident in the care and concern that has been shown to our pets.
We have been through the gamut of care from routine medical exams to cancer scares, behavioral issues and ultimately a cancer diagnosis. The care that has been given has been second to none in every circumstance. We recommend to any of our friends who ask in the North Central area.

I am a long time friend of E Maryland Hospital... On my third dog life with them... I find the vets knowledgeable and compassionate. ...available for emergencies and wellness visits alike. Never adverse to recommending a specialist if needed The staff is so caring and concerned for their animal patients, as well as the mommies and daddies of each. My little Cavalier is treated like a King. Believe me, he deserves it too. The staff of the waiting room are all animal lovers and kind individuals, always greeting me with a smile and personal recognition. The boarding is beyond the norm. Special patience and love is given to each dog, cat, bird etc. Especially if your little guy is a finicky eater. I highly recommend East Maryland Animal Hospital.

I absolutely LOVE all the staff and E. Maryland Animal Hospital! From the time The Bear & I walk in we are both greeted by name. I know all the front staff & they are so caring, friendly and personable. They treat each pet as if they were there own. When my little baby, Bow Tie had to be put to sleep, Dr. Schroeder showed so much compassion & empathy. In addition, the sympathy card that was sent after Bow was to Crazy Kitty Heaven made my day. All my pets, at one time or another, have seen every Veterinarian at E. Maryland. Currently, Dr. Ann is our Vet. & she is truly fantastic. I would never consider taking my big guy, The Bear any were else. Truly, K. Lindemoen

We've been with East Maryland for almost 20 years! We absolutely LOVE Dr. Schroeder and the entire staff is great. When our beagle puppy, Abby, was first vaccinated eons ago, she had a terrible reaction, but Dr. Schroeder was able to actually "bring her back to life" the moment it occurred. Abby's done great ever since with absolutely no ill effects. Even though the vet location is no longer convenient for us, we wouldn't think of going anywhere else!

I am new to East Maryland and I must say this is the best vet's office I've ever been to...and I've had animals for 40 years. The staff is caring and genuinely interested in your pet and their situation. Dr. Martens is smart, compassionate and has a fantastic pet side manner.

I have gone for years but will never go again. The only good thing about this visit was the receptionist. The vet assistant was unfriendly, borderline rude.The vet was worthless. Seriously? You can't find my dogs pulse? You think my dog is too noisy to hear her heart? Then why did I PAY $60??? You can't do anything! You have to look everything up online? I can do that, and have, at home. Why should I pay you to research potential problems online? This was not the Vet I have seen in the past. I want a refund!! You did NOTHING!!!! I am so angry with the incompetence of the visit I am spitting fire! Complete waste of time any money! Seriously I want my $60 back.

We have been going to East Maryland for 14 years with our dogs. This weekend, with the help of Dr. Schroeder, we had to tell our precious cocker spaniel good-bye. Dr. Schroeder and the staff at East Maryland could not have been more wonderful to us and compassionate to our Tanner. While our hearts are hurting now, we want to say thank you so much for being the very best animal hospital with amazing vets and comforting, professional staff.

Extremely satisfied with Dr. Martens. She immediately got down to eye level with our dog and connected with him and me. She was warm, engaging, knowledgeable, and compassionate when she could have been judgmental. Our dog has been suffering for months because we thought it was too expensive to treat him. We are all relieved Dr Martens found a solution that fits our budget.

We have had both of our Boxers cared for by I believe every doctor at East Maryland at one time or another over the last 3 years. I have always been 100% confident in the care and concern that has been shown to our pets.
We have been through the gamut of care from routine medical exams to cancer scares, behavioral issues and ultimately a cancer diagnosis. The care that has been given has been second to none in every circumstance. We recommend to any of our friends who ask in the North Central area.

I am a long time friend of E Maryland Hospital... On my third dog life with them... I find the vets knowledgeable and compassionate. ...available for emergencies and wellness visits alike. Never adverse to recommending a specialist if needed The staff is so caring and concerned for their animal patients, as well as the mommies and daddies of each. My little Cavalier is treated like a King. Believe me, he deserves it too. The staff of the waiting room are all animal lovers and kind individuals, always greeting me with a smile and personal recognition. The boarding is beyond the norm. Special patience and love is given to each dog, cat, bird etc. Especially if your little guy is a finicky eater. I highly recommend East Maryland Animal Hospital.

I absolutely LOVE all the staff and E. Maryland Animal Hospital! From the time The Bear & I walk in we are both greeted by name. I know all the front staff & they are so caring, friendly and personable. They treat each pet as if they were there own. When my little baby, Bow Tie had to be put to sleep, Dr. Schroeder showed so much compassion & empathy. In addition, the sympathy card that was sent after Bow was to Crazy Kitty Heaven made my day. All my pets, at one time or another, have seen every Veterinarian at E. Maryland. Currently, Dr. Ann is our Vet. & she is truly fantastic. I would never consider taking my big guy, The Bear any were else. Truly, K. Lindemoen

Dr. Martens is excellent. She reviewed Bailey's cardiology report before she came in the room and immediately commented that he is doing well. She was attentive to both Abby and Bailey as well as me. She answered my questions and addressed my concerns even though she said "Abby's Fat" :) The next time Fat Abby is in, she will be Svelte Abby!
