I took my four month old kitten Presley in to be spayed. The facility was immaculate. I was able to drop Presley off early on my way to work. They took great care if my kitten, and called when the procedure was done to say Presley had done well and was recovering. I had a situation at work that delayed me from leaving, and when they called a second time to let me know I could pick up Presley, I expressed my stress about not being able to leave work. The person on the phone was extremely understanding and told me they were there until 6:30 and not to worry. Very compassionate and understanding. Presley has done better than expected after her surgery with virtually no down time. I highly recommend Animal Medical Center for their excellent care and compassionate staff. Read Less

The nurse was super sweet and attentive - the Dr was not very professional. They gave us a quote for services and we signed to that - when we picked up our dog they added $50+ because they cleaned out yeast from his ears. They didn't ask us beforehand or call or anything - we were never told he had yeast in his ears or that it would be an extra charge. It was not on the estimate either. We would have liked at least a call before they decided to do something that expensive without permission. How they handled it was not very professional at all. Oh, they also had our black male dog as a brown female on the paperwork when we picked him up - we specified his color and gender in the papers we filled out less than three hours before. Also, when we simply asked if they had a payment plan we could do we were told "This isn't a bank, sir." We never assumed or demanded a payment option, we simply asked since we haven't been to this vet before. We most likely will not be going to this vet again, despite the sweet vet assistant who acted very professionally. Read Less

Gave us a few different treatment options and didn't try to pressure us into the most expensive one. Were very realistic about hos likely anything was to work. The options were there if we wanted, but their vet allowed us to let our dog go with dignity and no guilt.

I had taken my dog, a great pyrenees/lab mix, to them for almost 3 years before I went back to All Valley. He was badly overweight when I got him from the shelter in 2012, pushing 140 lbs, but with diet and exercise he went from fat to fit. GPs are LARGE dogs with deep chests and heavy frames. Adults can range from 150 to 200 lbs. He's about 3-4 yrs now, and a healthy 128 lbs. The vets at AMC kept telling me he should be 80 to 100 lbs. I talked to several people online and in person who raise GPs and they said for his mix he's about the right weight and has good definition. What really killed it for me was last May, he got a goat head or something jammed in his paw and it got infected. He couldn't even walk on it. I took him in there 3 times between May and June and they said they couldn't find anything wrong, but kept prescribing high-end antibiotics and pain pills at almost $160 a pop, plus the clinic visit. By mid-June, his paw was getting worse, and the 3rd time I took him in the docs said they couldn't find anything wrong still. I took him to All Valley and in 1 day they examined him and determined he had an infected pocket in one of his toes, xray'd his paw and asked me if they could operate. The infection was dangerously close to spreading deeper into his paw and getting into his leg. If I had waited any longer, they would have had to amputate his paw to keep him from becoming septic. He had not 1 but 2 docs work on him that very day, and I took him home that night. He had 4 follow ups, that included bandage changes, drain tubes and exams by techs AND docs and I was never charged an office visit. He was back to his old self in a month. AMC was more concerned about selling me diet food and pushing pain pills. Read Less

He had not 1 but 2 docs work on him that very day, and I took him home that night. He had 4 follow ups, that included bandage changes, drain tubes and exams by techs AND docs and I was never charged an office visit. He was back to his old self in a month. AMC was more concerned about selling me diet food and pushing pain pills. Read Less

Animal Medical Center is second to none!! I have known this since I was referred to them a year ago. Yesterday Dr. Gillis performed an unplanned cesarean on my Havanese, Ebony. The confidence and professionalism of the team gave me peace of mind through the whole process! Can you believe the WHOLE staff stepped in to care for 8 puppies and there Momma!?! I am grateful beyond words!! Oh and their pricing is reasonable, which in nearly unheard of in the industry. Read Less

Yesterday coming in from out of town, Ellie received the best care possible even though she lost the battle she was in great hands. I cant say enough good things about the clinic from the receptionist all the way back Ellie and myself were treated like we had been clients for years. I cant say thank you enough for the care you gave her in her last hours. Thank you for being there. Read Less

If I could give these people zero stars, I would certainly do it!! When you speak to the staff, you immediately get the feeling that you're not important! You're their last priority, and they don't want to be inconvenienced by your pesky questions. I asked to speak to one of their vets, Dr. Dalton regarding an expensive prescription food prescribed for my dog because it's cost prohibitive. The secretary agreed to have the doctor call me back. However, the next day, I was informed that my ex wife should bring the dog in because they didn't wish to have me in their building. I did nothing to deserve this treatment, and these people wouldn't even apologize for treating my as a second-class person. These are the last people I would ever consider for the medical care of my pet!!!!Read Less

I love this place.  I have had 4 dogs go in there over the last 2 years for various issues.  I had to put one down and the other had parvo.   Dr Gillis is top notch.  My only knock is they are closed on Sundays.    The rates are very fair for the services that are provided. Read Less

The Animal Medical Center of Boise provided excellent care and service for my dog.  Our dog needed corrective surgery for a her luxating patella on her left rear leg, so we were referred to them by our local veterinarian in Mountain Home.  The staff members were very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly with us and our dog.  They answered all our questions and concerns.  They also provided a lot of follow-up communication for our dog's health and well being.  Our dog is recovering well and walking a lot better now.  Hopefully we won't need any more surgeries, but will definitely come back and refer any of our friends with pets to AMCB.
