These guys are great. They treat us like family. Every single person there --whether receptionists, technicians or doctors- are smart, efficient and welcoming. We visit several times a year for our two dogs. I've called for a million reasons, big and small, and they always take the time to thoroughly answer my questions. The staff is so knowledgeable and caring. They provide ample information and allow me to make decisions on the best path for care. Everyone I've dealt with at Alpine is exceedingly competent, intelligent and compassionate. We trust them. Read Less

The whole staff at Alpine had always been kind and conscientious in care of my cats. They went above and beyond when my dear 12 year old Mr. Andy Orange Ears was suffering through last stages of renal failure. They worked with my wonderful pet sitter to provide hospice type care when I was out of the country. They also communicated with my sitter and me on the weekend when it was time to put him down. I am so grateful for this professional and personal animal hospital. Read Less

My dog gives them 5 stars and that's what matters. Reasonable rates with a confident approach to treating active animals in Boulder. Their approach to tech visits makes it easy for me to trust handing off my puppy when he needs care and knowing someone is treating him properly. They fit into an extremely active lifestyle for both my dog and myself. Read Less

My friend raved about Alpine Hospital for Animals for years so when I needed a new veterinarian I set an appointment with her vet, Dr. Mones. Wow! Am I happy! He spent 45 minutes with my dog on the floor saying that was where my dog was comfortable. This man is superb! Read Less

I love this place! My dogs are such an important and invaluable part of my life. I drive from out of Boulder 30 minutes to come here because they do so well with my dogs, one in particular. They are compassionate and well informed. The service is always good and their personal touch is heartening. I think if I moved to Denver, even though it may sound crazy, I would still drive to Boulder to bring my dogs to Alpine Hospital. Read Less

Wonderful veterinary hospital/clinic. The staff at every level is engaged, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and loves animals. Our golden doodle has no anxiety whatsoever when we bring her in. These are great folks! Read Less

Love this Vet! The staff is helpful & the facility is spotless. I have 2 dogs & 2 cats and have been using them since I moved here in 2016. They treated one of my cats after she escaped from a coyote. They treated my corgi after a neck injury. My older cat is on 2 different medications and there is never a problem getting his prescriptions refilled. Of course, the annual check ups are a breeze. Both my cats have dental problems so cleaning & extraction of bad teeth is normal. The vets are so careful to make the cats as comfortable as possible before & after the procedure. I can't imagine a more caring and thoughtful vet to trust my fur babies to. Love you guys! Read Less

A+. My dogs love the people who work here and they usually hate everyone who isn't me. You can tell the employees here love and truly care for animals.Prices are good. Advice is always excellent. Good bed side manner. We get their shots and checkups regularly and they'll send to boarding or groomers if you forget to bring proof. Easy to schedule. And they stay open until 7pm so you can get home from work to get your dogs and go back w/o missing work. Read Less

I have been going to this vet for as long as I've had my dog (13 years), and can only say great things about the care they give, and the people there. We just put my dog down on an emergency visit. It was the most difficult thing I've ever had to do, but the concern and kindness of every person there, from the doctors to the front desk staff, understood completely, and our sadness and tears were met with great sensitivity and comfort.  I just received a card in the mail signed by many there - reading the heartfelt comments through tears. How nice they take the time to do this, when your heart is aching over losing your loved pet. Many people don't understand the very real pain of such a loss, but they do. I can't thank them enough for the love and support they have shown. I've had nothing but great experiences at Alpine  - everything from routine visits to more involved teeth cleaning involving anethesia. Dr. Mones is the best, very professional and sensitive to your needs, always giving you options when it comes to treatment and cost, which i appreciated. I know he has gone above and beyond at times, always with the best interest of our dog in mind. I do feel their costs were always reasonable too, and in-line with the quality of care. I will be back if I ever find another furbaby to love. Thank you to all the staff there, you are simply wonderful! Read Less

I've always had wonderful luck with veterinarians, no matter which I've lived, and Alpine Hospital For Animals is another excellent clinic. The vets are extremely attentive to my animals, and the girls at the front desk are perpetually kind and thoughtful. Read Less

The team at Alpine is fantastic. It starts when you walk in the door with the friendly and helpful front desk staff, to the capable vet techs to the outstanding veterinarians themselves. I have been with Alpine now for 7 years with various pet issues and they are kind, attentive and take such good care of your pet. They provide options, including holistic, as appropriate for the situation. I can't recommend them highly enough. Read Less

We have been going to them for 2 years. They help care for our two elderly cats and a new puppy. The front desk team is always so helpful and the vet techs are nice as well. We have had great experience with the doctors there. They are responsive and kind at every turn. We wouldn't go anywhere else in Boulder. Read Less

Alpine Hospital is the best!  I have taken my pets to them for over 15 years and wouldn't consider going somewhere else.  I never have to wait for an appointment and they spend as much time as I need to get my questions answered.  When a procedure is recommended it is clearly stated when something is a recommendation versus an absolute necessity and I feel comfortable saying I'll pass on something or do it at the next annual exam.  My dog passed away recently and I got a sympathy card from them that was signed by everyone.  It was a small gesture but it meant so much to me because I know they truly care about my pets.  Dr. Moens is the best vet there! Read Less

I'm new to the Boulder area and I didn't know anyone to recommend a vet for my 17 yo kitty. The boarding facility I take my kitty to recommended Alpine Hospital. Dr Jessica Stein is wonderful with my cat; discussing medical care and health options for my senior feline. I highly recommend Alpine Hospital for Animals!! Read Less

We recently had to put our beloved Pitbull Baker to rest. For months before the terrible day, Dr. Jessica Stein refused to give up too soon and cared for our 13 year old baby with more love and devotion than we could have ever hoped. All of the wonderful women at Alpine kept us up when things were great and cried with us when things got tough. I would recommend this Vet to anyone who loves their pets like children. Thank you Alpine and especially Dr. Stein for everything you did for our little family-Baker loved youRead Less

Love this office! The staff are so friendly and helpful, and it's always a great experience for my dog. Always met with smiles, and leave with great info about any questions I have. Highly recommended. Read Less

Fantastic. Went in for a check up a few days after I adopted a 6 month old puppy. Reception was incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. Vet was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. I really like the option for later appointments (open until 7pm on Mondays and Wednesdays) as well as Saturday mornings. Prices lower than I expected for vaccinations, etc. and walked out paying much less than I had planned for. I will DEFINITELY recommend to others. Read Less

Wow what a great vet clinic. I've been to a couple different vets in the Denver/Boulder area since I got my pup and they don't even compare to how great Alpine is! Banfield Vet Hospital for instance, very clean/sterile clinic, but they never followed up with me/my pup after bringing him in for an accident he had with another dog. Alpine is very clean as well but has followed up on their promises EACH time they said they would. And I love that Dr Marcy Schwartzman has called me multiple times post-visits to check in on my pup. I really appreciate it and it gives me so much more confidence in their expertise. I highly recommend them. I'd say since it's Boulder, the prices are definitely higher than wellness care was at a couple other clinics I've been to. But the quality of service is just exponentially better here and worth the extra $$$. Also want to praise how wonderful the front-desk folks are. They are just as equally genuine and wonderful to work with always on top of their game and very efficient.Read Less

Alpine Hospital provided beyond exceptional care and service for my Maggie. We only started taking her there in the last couple of months of her life with us, I wish we knew about Alpine sooner. She lived an amazing 15 years. We received a gracious condolences card that warmed our hearts. And the gift made to Humane Society of Boulder Valley in Maggie's memory was such an unexpected gift. Thank you to everyone at Alpine. We will be sure Alpine is our vet when we bring home the next addition to our family! Read Less

Best vet ever!!! Everyone at Alpine is so kind and wonderful, they really put you at ease and make the entire experience as gentle and efficient as possible. We have been coming to Alpine for many years, and even though we now live almost an hour away, still make the drive because they are worth it. Dr. Mones is awesome, and the trust they build with you and your fur baby is a huge part of what makes everything work. They are very knowledgeable and good at explaining everything. They assess what the options are, and, they are very cost conscious on behalf of the client. This whole clinic is terrific! Read Less

I've been here twice with our new pug puppy. As a nervous first time pet owner every strange poop and look is of course a potential emergency.  When the pooch started coughing I called this place and I was happy when they could see us within an hour. I had a small amount of fear about the doglet being traumatized by the whole vet experience, but everyone was super friendly. The nurse and the doctor took time to greet her and play with her to make her feel as comfortable as possible. They use treats and baby food  as distractions and the pup was so happy that she wasn't even bothered by the thermometer in the butt. After listening to me ramble about all the small things I was worried could be wrong with her, they gave her a thorough exam to make sure all was fine. The conclusion was kennel cough and we were sent home with some antibiotics and a scheduled time for the next round of vaccinations. The vaccination visit was just as pleasant. I never felt that they tried to push me to pay for something unnecessary or they were trying to rush us out of the door.Pleasant experience for both the puglet and the possibly neurotic owner. Read Less

Alpine Hospital is such an outstanding clinic. The staff is beyond caring and they took such good care of our sweet boy! I highly recommend Dr.Mones. He has the most calming bedside manner and genuinely cares about his patients. I am forever grateful for him and all the staff at Alpine Hospital! Read Less

I love this this veterinarian clinic.  Dr. Mones and the staff are excellent.  All of the vets there have been fantastic-- even through some hard times when our dog Wilbur was diagnosed with cancer and our kitty Occie was struggling with multiple terminal illnesses.  The staff is always friendly and helpful.  You can tell that everyone that works there truly loves animals.  If you have an emergency, they get you in right away and they are also open on Saturdays.  They also do check up calls after procedures and medications are administered. Some of the lower star reviews are because of the cost. If you are worried about the cost, I think you have to ask the questions about cost before you bring your pet.  I think it is unfair to bring your pet in for an appointment and then expect it to be free.I will not go anywhere else for vet care because they have been so good to my pets and I highly recommend Alpine to everyone I can. Read Less

We are new to Boulder and found Alpine Hospital when researching dog license requirements. Jazzy, our Golden, and I are both enthusiastic about our experience at Alpine Animal Hospital. She got her license and later care for her skin allergy issues from Dr. Jessica Stein. Everyone was kind and loving and the fees we very reasonable. When now feel at home with our new veterinary family and pet friendly community. Read Less

Great facility that helps us with all of our veterinary needs! Clean with a friendly and helpful staff. Our dogs have been in for routine checkups as well as dental cleanings and we have been very satisfied with the results. Thanks for taking such great care of our fur babies!Read Less

Alpine does an amazing job. The front staff is so pleasant and welcoming - and take care of all our needs, be it ordering a product , answering questions or communicating in any way required. And, I can't say enough for Dr Dan Moans. He has been totally present and comprehensive, be it a major health concern or simple routine veterinary care. He's pleasant and establishes a wonderful bond with all my animals. I find his care to be exemplary. Read Less

This place is truly exceptional! My big goofy pit bull managed to tear up her paws while out for a run and needed all four of them bandaged, and the staff here was just great with her. I imagine it must be pretty easy to find a good vet if you have an easy dog, but for owners like me with very particular pets, the demeanor and attitude of the staff is almost as important as their medical expertise, and the staff at Alpine is amazing. My girl was rescued from dog fighting so she, understandably, has some quirks--she is extremely dog aggressive, is very uncomfortably with men, and is a mix of very strong and very tender. I was SO IMPRESSED with how the staff here treated us--I told the receptionist before we came in about her somewhat peculiar needs and they were more than accommodating. They made sure that only female members of the staff handled her and they made sure that she didn't interact with other animals, allowing us to wait in a separate room rather than the waiting room and shifting some things around in their treatment area so that she wouldn't have to be bandaged up near other pups. Everyone we interacted with was totally comfortable with her breed and her demeanor (they were incredibly understanding of her dog-aggression and there was absolutely no judgement of her as a bad dog or of me as a bad owner, which we've experienced with other places) and I would strongly recommend this place to other pit bull parents. I was really impressed with Dr. scwartzman--she was very gentle with my girl and did a wonderful job building a little bit of a relationship with her in the short time of our appointment, and she also took the time to explain the injury and treatment thoroughly to me and made sure to answer all of my questions.  The vet techs were awesome as well--they gave my pup plenty of treats to help her feel more comfortable (they even used a frozen container of baby food to distract her, which I think is brilliant) and they did an excellent job with the bandages themselves. Finally, the front desk staff was spectacular--they were super nice and super helpful and they obviously care about the people and pets they get to interact with. I felt that the pricing here was very fair--I'm surprised to see so many other reviewers complaining about the cost. Also, for me, the fact that they required an exam before treating her injuries was a huge plus--I wouldn't feel comfortable having a vet prescribe treatment or medication without first examining my dog, and at least to me, it seems far less a scam to get money out of unsuspecting owners and far more a hallmark of a responsible and well run medical practice.

The doctors and staff at Alpine Animal Hospital are the best! They are an incredibly caring group of individuals who go out of their way to provide the best care for your pet to the point sometimes of foregoing their own profit in order for your pet to get the care it needs. They are understanding and respectful of your budget as well as your preferences for where you want to purchase necessary items for your pet (like a special diet or other types of prescriptions). I can't say enough about how glad I am to have found this group to care for my elderly cat. The staff and doctors are knowledgeable and articulate in explaining the various options available to care for your pet. Sometimes pets know when they're going to the vet and start trembling and are afraid. All of the dogs I've seen come in to the office seem really happy to be there and they all seem to know where the goodie jars are! : ) Read Less

Great front office staff which makes such a big difference! The vet and techs were also very knowledgeable and kind, both to me and my dog. They took their time and explained everything to me while also being efficient and timely. Really enjoyed the vet experience here! Read Less

Now although I have never taken my animals here I randomly called this business for some advice on some goats that I have and whether or not they should stay away from eating Pine tree's. I spoke to a woman named CJ and a woman named Cassie and I wasn't able to get an answer right away; They wanted to make sure they gave me credible information from further research or speaking with one of their veterinarians for further suggestion. They took down my name and number and CALLED ME BACK! I wasn't able to answer their call but they left me a warmhearted message referring me to the two best leads that they had. I was so amazed and I'll probably be a future customer just by that voicemail alone. Thank you to all the staff at Alpine Read Less

Alpine Hospital is awesome! They are friendly, professional, and really care about your four legged loved ones! They follow up on appointments, send reminders ahead of time, and are flexible when life happens. I received an unexpected check up call over the weekend when I could actually answer, so they even know your schedule and work to ensure life is easy. Read Less

Dr. Mones went way above the call of duty, compassion and kindness with my daughter's pet.  Knowledgeable, sweet, patient, and extraordinary in every way - Dr. Mones has won our hearts.  The staff was also very friendly and helpful.  And I'm so excited to hear that the docs at Alpine are also certified in veterinary acupuncture! Read Less

The staff is very sympathetic and caring to the animals which is good but we do feel that they try to charge you too much for unnecessary extras. I'm sure it's easy to get away with because people care so much for their pets and usually know so little about their biology but it's not a good practice to take advantage of a complex service industry to make extra money. For example suggest that they just write you a script so you can call it in to an online pharmacy like 1-800-PET-MEDS and you'll be given the third degree and a guilt trip meant to scare you into paying for their drugs. They upcharge for every little thing too and suggested an E collar for a wound the dog couldn't reach. If you're a typical six figure Boulderite who feeds their animals more expensive food than most middle income families eat then this is probably a great vet for you. Otherwise I'd look elsewhere.Read Less

I would HIGHLY recommend Alpine Hospital For Animals! We have been very happy with Dr. Mones and the rest of the staff. We have been there for both well visits and for issues with Elvis, our 10 yr old boxer. The customer service has been excellent every single time! The front desk has ALWAYS been courteous and efficient. Dr. Mones is very knowledgeable, caring and compassionate. He has always discussed all of our options for treatment with such a caring and calming nature that it makes us feel more at ease with the situation. And Elvis loves him too! My experience with Alpine Hospital For Animals has been wonderful every single time which makes it worth the drive from Longmont to see them!Read Less

Can't say enough good things about the doctors and staff here. When we first moved to Boulder, my dog suddenly began showing symptoms of Lymes Disease we assume she contracted on the east coast. After work, I let my dog out, and her back legs had suddenly grown stiff and unable to move her. She was stumbling around and falling over. I called the nearest vet (because I don't have a car and would have to walk) in a total panic... And luckily enough it was Alpine. They got us in immediately without an appointment and within minutes, and cared for her so gently and wonderfully. I've been back since for her annual check up and vaccines - and each time they are so wonderful and gentle and caring. I highly recommend this vet every time I talk to another dog owner!! Read Less

Every single time I've brought my cat to Alpine, the veterinarians, the technicians, and the receptionists have gone above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. We've visited two of the vets here, Dr. Dan Mones and Dr. Tory Wunder, each with the same awesome result. :) They're knowledgeable and make sure to go over every option with you, as well as explain health information in a way that is approachable and understandable for those who don't know much about veterinary medicine. They also explain all costs and the various options so that I've been able to make the best informed decision.I can tell they truly care about my kitty's wellbeing. They allow him to get to know them before jumping into diagnostics, let him sniff around and get comfortable in the exam room, etc. In fact, his very first visit, Dr. Mones had my cat sniff him and be fed by him before he began to examine him at all, making sure he felt familiar with him. I appreciate that I know I can trust Alpine Hospital to help me make the best decision for us, both for my animal's wellbeing, as well as financially, and that I can be rest assured he's in good hands. Thanks, Alpine! Read Less

They helped us find out what was wrong with our dog .   They had never seen her before (we have a vet who makes house calls) but they treated her as if she was important to them.  They were compassionate when they had to deliver bad news and supportive of our choices.  For that, I'm a fan.later...Unfortunately, I had to find out that they also do at home euthanasia which was a blessing.Andrew is one of the best vets I've come across - in his knowledge and demeanor.

We recently lost our beloved best friend, Maggie, and her doctor and the whole staff were nothing but incredible during and after this personal tragedy. Really, they were above and beyond my expectations and continue to amaze me. I highly recommend them to anybody in the Boulder area. You all are amazing people, thank you. Read Less

Absolutely recommend taking your dog here! Hands down best vet office I have been to. Dr. Mones has taken such good care of my dog over the years, through thick and thin. He truly cares to put in the time and effort with each person (and animal); no matter the occasion, I never feel rushed out without all my questions answered thoroughly. His kindness, astuteness, and professionalism goes unparalleled in my experience with vets. He always puts my pup first, and I never feel he is trying to just tack on the medical fees, as I've felt has been the case at most other vets I've seen. I have truly appreciated his integrity, hard work, thoroughness, and compassion. If you want a trustworthy and well-qualified vet for your pup, Alpine in Boulder is most certainly the place!

I will echo a prior review that Alpine charges $62 for a "physical exam" when it is not needed.  I took my dog in for an ear infection only one month after they did an annual exam which cost $400. Dr. INGRAM listened to my dog's heart and nagged me about her weight BEFORE she would even look at my dog's ear. Then she insisted on probing both ears until my dog cried. It was an infection in one ear only as my dog has every summer and I asked for the med and that she stop probing her ears. The ointment, which cost only $24, cleared up the ear infection. Total bill $112. Not going back. Read Less

Our third four-legged pooch is now a "client" of Alpine. Over the last 15 years all of the veterinarian's and support staff at Alpine have been the best!!! Initially they cared for our elderly lady when we first arrived in Colorado in 1999, then they along with Alpenglow they cared for our first pup here who had a severe heart murmur until she passed last year. We will only trust our newest family member to Alpine! If you have an animal family member of any make or model I would recommend Alpine for their health care! Read Less

This is the last time we visit Alpine Hospital for Animals.  Schedule a $29 shot to board our dog, and are told we can't have the shot without the $62 physical exam (which lasted about 2 minutes), and then are told they "need to do a heartworm exam" .. for another $39.  My dog takes monthly heartworm meds and we even said we don't need it.  Total rip off - never again.

After a call from the practice owner, I've returned to update my review and scrub it for cost complaints since I can't fairly claim to have comparative information on everyone's local charging practices.I would like to point out that during the entire experience that I outline below, no  veterinarian ever commented on the conduct of any other veterinarian or the correctness or incorrectness of their treatment.  What you get here is the dog owners' opinion, based on personal experience colored by my own experience and several decades of non-medical engineering experience.We used to love Alpine- and we took our dog here regularly for 6 years, but the practice was sold over a year ago and our experience since then has left me less enthusiastic than I previously was.  The final straw leading to this review is that our dog suffered a broken bone in her foot, which went undetected by the emergency clinic visit on a Wednesday, so we went in on Saturday to Alpine.  They were able to squeeze us in despite a call that same morning, which has generally been one of the features of Alpine for years.The entire experience goes something like this:(1) Dog gets physical examination(2) Dog gets x-rays(3) Veterinarian shows x-rays to owner; veterinarian talks about how you expect the (rear leg) foot bones to look in x-ray, points out an area that doesn't follow the smooth line you expect, intimating it's a break, but doesn't identify it as such.  Veterinarian offers to send x-rays to radiologist to read- owner declines because I've had enough breaks and x-rays (due to high intensity hobbies) that I felt confident this was an obvious break, and was mildly annoyed vet offered to send it out to radiologist.(4) Veterinarian offers "we could do nothing or we could splint it"; at this point was when I committed a major error.  I didn't ask the follow-up question: "what are the benefits and drawbacks of each course of action?"  As an over-protective dog owner, I suggested that we should splint the break, imaging a short little splint that would likely cover the adjacent joints (toes and over the hock).  I was asked to wait until after the next appointment since there was only one vet in the office and we had chewed up a lot of time a that point.(5) ~45 minutes later dog goes into the back for splinting; dog re-emerges with her entire leg up to the hip encased in vet wrap with a hard plastic splint underneath.  Not quite what I imagined for a break equivalent to breaking a long bone in your foot, below the ankle- but thought we would head home and see how it went.  Instruction sheet says "check toes (for coldness/swelling or something similar-- basically ensure splint not cutting off circulation)"-- toes were not actually visible in the splinting configuration, so hopefully it wasn't too tight.(6) 15 minute drive home, dog is barely able to maneuver with splint (dog is tall and long-legged like a deer).(7) At home, dog clearly can't lay down comfortably and get up without awkward-looking maneuvering that spouse and I worried would cause damage to ligaments & joints on other rear leg.  Call to vet's office to express concern.  Spoke to vet tech who relayed concerns to vet; response from vet tech was "try it til Monday to see if she adapts and we can take it off then"  sent vet tech back again with our structural concerns (strain on other rear leg) was told "vet says this is her best chance for recovery"...wait...WHAT?  The person who told me 45 minutes earlier we could do nothing or we could splint is now recommending against her other option?  Very unsettling.  Eventually the unhappy owners convinced them to remove the splint.(8) Return to office, remove splint.  Spend weekend frantically figuring out where we could find an orthopedic specialist we trusted to get a second opinion, finally got in one week later with specialist who was comfortable with the "do nothing" option.My irritation in this whole experience?  Not getting the explanation behind the recommendation and getting the vet tech runaround when we called back with concerns.  Researching vet books, I find that splints are not necessarily harmless- there are risks due to too-tight splinting, and with covered toes we would presumably not have insight into whether the splint was too tight and cutting off circulation.  I wish I had been informed by the veterinarian as to these risks (as well as the enormous size of the splint) prior to making a choice.  Alpine used to be really good at informing patients, and I think they've lost that skill.  Because of this experience and two previous regular vet visits with the current practice owner, I'm uncomfortable recommending Alpine these days.

We love out vet hospital.  The front desk staff is always SO nice and friendly to our little ones.  They explain billing clearly and make scheduling appointments and keeping track of medications so easy for us. We have 3 dogs and they take such great care of them. Our pug comes in every 2-3 weeks for nail trimming and we only take him here because they do a great job for the same price as a groomer, who makes us hold our dogs down while they trim.  Dr. Mones is a great vet and is honest with us about the health of our dogs.  We recommend Alpine to anyone looking for a great vet.

LOVE THIS PLACE!We just adopted a rescue dog who is a bit skittish, and brought him in for his first wellness visit.  The entire staff, including Dan (the vet) went above and beyond to make him - and us - feel comfortable.  We were impressed by the amount of time and care spent both on our dog, and answering all of our questions.The next day we found out that he had tested positive for hookworm and we were contacted immediately, all of our questions again patiently answered, solution presented, and our pooch is already on the road to recovery.Because our dog is a bit skittish they recommended bringing him in for friendly visits so he can get used to the office and exam rooms without freaking out.  We have already brought him in for one of these friendly visits, and again, everyone who interacted with our dog acted like they were SO excited to see him.  They were very accommodating in going through the motions of an actual visit so he could start to get used to the place, since we need to bring him back soon for a "real" visit that involves a needle.  Alpine came highly recommended by two of my friends with dogs, and the experience lived up to their recommendations.  I feel like we've found our new lifetime vet!And p.s., while we were there we also met one of their new vets, Janie, and she seemed awesome too!

Yes, the vets in general seem friendly and know what they are doing, but the same cannot be said for the rest of the staff. When my cousin called them frantically about her dog breaking out in bumps/hives and having breathing issues, they told her that the dog would be fine, don't bother bringing her in... No one in my family suffers from ANY allergic reactions, so we don't know what they look like or how to react. (We didn't even know what the heck Benadryl was for.) So, my cousin goes to work and two hours later, I get home to find a nearly comatose dog. Rushed her over to the vets and THEY yelled at ME for not bringing her in sooner. Hello?! They were the ones that told us she would be fine. This dog is also very skittish and won't let people she does not know near her. Every time we bring her in, we let the staff know that to get ANYTHING accomplished, we have to come with the dog. They have never once believed us. So of course, they take her into the back room only to come out sheepishly 5 minutes later to ask one of us to come back there and help them. I can't believe my cousin STILL uses this office. I would never bring my animal there. Read Less

I called Alpine Hospital because I was referred to one of their doctors. The receptionist was rude and would not let me explain why I was in need of a consult. Needless to say, I was never able to make an appointment because I was cut off ! They really must not want new clients. I certainly would not recommend them! Read Less

I have been seeing the vets at Alpine for years, and all of them are excellent. They are knowledgeable and thorough. They take the time to answer your questions, no matter how long that takes. They will see your animal in an emergency even if there is no room on their schedule. The vet techs are also wonderful and caring. Read Less
