Schmitts Animal Hospital
Grand Rapids, Michigan
General Info
At the center of the local pet community, Schmitts Animal Hospital is renowned for its compassionate and well-rounded approach to animal wellbeing. Schmitts Animal Hospital in Grand Rapids sets the stage for these kinds of interactions via body language and energy between pets and owners, characteristic to Michigan households. Exams do not start by touching the paper but rather by focusing the mind. Staff closely monitor micro-behaviors such as eye movement patterns, breathing responses to sound stimuli, and general motion tendencies. Care will be divided into several parts. Pet’s skin, coat, and joints are tested by its anchoring movements or leaning and stiffening. When trust signals appear, the next internal reviews of teeth abdomen and heart rhythm take place. Owners present contextual clues by describing changes in daily routines, new sounds the pet responds to, and the altered daily walking or feeding patterns. Schmitts Animal Hospital’s services run the gamut, from the earliest life-stage exams and diagnostics to energy balance strategies, oral health planning, age-related joint tracking, and illness-specific mapping. Timeframes’ durations depend on desires and behavioral patterns. Some appointments do, and the ones that progress quickly have certain signals of consent. Numerous phases of evolution are protracted enough for the animal to undergo them. Pets need to reset before continuing, so pause areas and quiet zones are accessible. Post-visit care focuses on transferring information from the hospital to the home. Look out for sleep patterns, and silent cues such as withdrawal from family members, loss of appetite, and spatial guarding as routines are reintroduced. It is also suggested that the owners monitor potential patterns in time on top of clinical manifestations. At what time does restlessness emerge? During which segment of the day do hesitations occur most frequently? Schmitts Animal Hospital is dedicated to assisting families in Grand Rapids and the surrounding Michigan communities by acknowledging that animal behavior, which occurs through daily pauses, nudges, and shifts rather than just during crisis situations, is a crucial living signal. The practice offers a comprehensive range of services including Surgery, Oncology, Prescription Medications, Vaccinations, and Pocket Pet Care. The procedures assist pets in all phases of life, from routine medical checkups to critical medical requirements. Pet owners appreciate the team’s expertise and compassionate communication style and the clinic’s ability to explain medical decisions and choices. And whenever senior pet care or urgent issues are at stake, the goal is to establish long-term relationships by providing consistent and caring services. The clinic also helps veterinary owners in the prevention and education of their pet’s health. Schmitts Animal Hospital’s participation in community activities enables pet owners to establish a firm foundation for responsible pet ownership. New and returning clients praise the welcoming atmosphere and professional service, which has advanced with modern veterinary practices.

Took my little Boston terrier to get a second opinion on a severe rash on his abdomen. My vet said it was a rash due to allergies but I was skeptical. I felt very welcomed at Schmitt 's and they were extremely thorough with their examination. They took scrapings and biopsies of the rash and did a few other tests which all came back negative. In conclusion they also believed that it was an allergy causing the rash. I felt confident at this point that the initial diagnosis was correct. They did Thoreau education and what could be causing the rash and offered numerous other testings. I give a 5-star overall for the service that we received however I am deducting a star to My overall review as when the visit was concluded they were up selling me on numerous other things with the bill over $600. After I declined the other services they literally made me feel guilty for not getting the other services. If they would not have tried to upsell and make me feel guilty I would have given them a five-star overall review.

I would give them a -5 rating if I could. We called last night needing help with our elderly cat. We knew we were at the end. We were told by the Technician that they already had two emergencies and there wasn't anything they could do. I asked if we could come in today (Feb 22) and she said no, they were are all booked. You could take him to Blue Pearl emergency clinic. I explained I didn't have $1000 to walk in the building. She replied with "well he needs to go". I said we can't. She said well, you could try calling other vets in the area. So you have time for two emergencies last night but couldn't offer us an emergency appointment this morning. We knew he was suffering and we were willing to say up all night and love him. And that is exactly what we did. My husband Called Sparta animal clinic first thing this morning. We had an appointment at 10:15 and we were able to say good bye to our sweet little guy. You are terrible people. I guess you pick and choose who you help. You were more than happy to take my $200 dollars a month ago to put drops in my dogs ears. Your lack of compassion and empathy are heartbreaking to our family. I will never set foot on your clinic and I WILL share this story with as many people as possible.

Brought my cat Barnaby in because he was sick, turned out he had swallowed a sewing needle. The receptionists, Vet, and technicians were super nice, they gave me a rough estimate on price before they did any procedures, discussed with me exactly how things were going to go down while he stayed at the vet office. He was there a few nights and the Vet called me personally at least four times that weekend to keep me updated on how Barnaby was doing, she even called me on a holiday. I brought him home and he's back to his normal self. The team saved his life! I will definitely bring both of my cats here again. Excellent customer service, and they clearly love animals and understand the bond between pets and their parents. :)

I don't have enough good things to say about this place. They took care of our cat when he had a broken leg, and I could feel that they have compassion for animals. They have also have hired phenomenally friendly staff. I could also tell that they were being incredibly reasonable with the prices that they were charging, and they were very up front about charges. I was pleasantly surprised by this animal hospital and I do not think I will take my cat anywhere else as long as I live in the Grand Rapids area.

They are consistently unfriendly when dealing with sensitive issues dealing with family pets, and are over priced for minimal work. We have taken both of my family pets, a yorkie and a orange tabby cat for the past few years. We've taken the orange tabby in several times due to consistent vomiting and had multiple tests done. In October 2012, we took her in to once again try and figure out what was wrong with her, and Schmitt's proceded to tell us she was fine. Last night, we took her to an 24/7 animal emergency center because she was vomiting blood, and they who told us she had cancer. We called Schmitt's to relay the paper work and x-rays from the animal emergency room to my cat's fie. Schmitts then said that THE TESTS THAT THEY HAD DONE IN OCTOBER STATED SHE HAD LYMPHOMA AND THAT IT WAS DISCUSSED WITH US. This is a lie, it was never ever discussed, and had we known we would have not allowed our cat to suffer for 6 months living with cancer. So basically, they knew our cat had cancer but never told us. They are a disgrace to veterinary hospitals every where. They should be ashamed of their lack of communication and professional attitude.

If you have a pet that is like a member of your family, you know that it's not always easy to find a good vet. Well, Schmitt's Animal Hospital is awesome. We saw Dr. Jones for my dog, Theo's, annual vaccines. She was nice and gentle and seemed to actually care about him. The rest of the staff was also very friendly. Evereything was reasonably priced. We didn't feel ripped off like we have at other vets. We will definately take Theo there for any future vet needs.

Awesome place to take your furry family. The whole staff is friendly and helpful! Doctors are all informative and treat your pets like they are their own. Won't go any place else.

Absolutely the best. Last Christmas my doxie ate about 6 oz of raisins (on the Sunday of Christmas). I hadn't change to Schmitt's yet but had been thinking of doing it. They talked with the ER vet and coordinated her treatment without me having actually been there yet. They were sooo good to my Baby and always more than willinging to answer my questions. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Love! It was my First time there today, brought my Rescued BullMastiff, Brutis, I have only had a week. The staff & Dr. Schmitt were so awesome with him! Although their are big costs with a big dog, they all did such a great job giving me the best bang for my buck so to speak. My big fella had all kinds of problems and they guided me with meds & honest answers to all my questions. Thank you! & Thanks for taking care such good care of my Bruty Bear! Officially found the vet I would like to stay at forever.

Can't say enough good things about these people. The actual doctor calls back on a Sunday with lab results, unheard of. Our dog was in pain and needed to be laid to rest on a holiday weekend, they were there for us. Love them all.

I don't have enough good things to say about this place. They took care of our cat when he had a broken leg, and I could feel that they have compassion for animals. They have also have hired phenomenally friendly staff. I could also tell that they were being incredibly reasonable with the prices that they were charging, and they were very up front about charges. I was pleasantly surprised by this animal hospital and I do not think I will take my cat anywhere else as long as I live in the Grand Rapids area.

They are consistently unfriendly when dealing with sensitive issues dealing with family pets, and are over priced for minimal work. We have taken both of my family pets, a yorkie and a orange tabby cat for the past few years. We've taken the orange tabby in several times due to consistent vomiting and had multiple tests done. In October 2012, we took her in to once again try and figure out what was wrong with her, and Schmitt's proceded to tell us she was fine. Last night, we took her to an 24/7 animal emergency center because she was vomiting blood, and they who told us she had cancer. We called Schmitt's to relay the paper work and x-rays from the animal emergency room to my cat's fie. Schmitts then said that THE TESTS THAT THEY HAD DONE IN OCTOBER STATED SHE HAD LYMPHOMA AND THAT IT WAS DISCUSSED WITH US. This is a lie, it was never ever discussed, and had we known we would have not allowed our cat to suffer for 6 months living with cancer. So basically, they knew our cat had cancer but never told us. They are a disgrace to veterinary hospitals every where. They should be ashamed of their lack of communication and professional attitude.

If you have a pet that is like a member of your family, you know that it's not always easy to find a good vet. Well, Schmitt's Animal Hospital is awesome. We saw Dr. Jones for my dog, Theo's, annual vaccines. She was nice and gentle and seemed to actually care about him. The rest of the staff was also very friendly. Evereything was reasonably priced. We didn't feel ripped off like we have at other vets. We will definately take Theo there for any future vet needs.
