Hi, I'm Mookie. I went to see my new friend Dr. Jay Epping at Blaine Area Pet Hospital today. Dr. Jay says I'm doing great. I'm growing and listening. He even gave me a new ball and told me to come back in three weeks. All the staff there loved me so much. I couldn't believe what a fun place this was. I weigh 46 pounds now and I love to eat so by the time I go back I will probably weigh more. My Mom told Dr. Jay I bark a lot. Dr. Jay said barking comes with the territory and I will get better at keeping quiet as I grow older. I had so much fun on this trip that I had to lay down in the driveway when I came home. The vet, a fun place? Who knew? I will be happy to go back and see my new friends again! Read Less

The absolute worst experience. After I called the clinic and gave the details on my dogs condition, I was told to bring her in immediately, and they would assess her as soon as we get there. We arrived 20 min later. She paged the back area and said there was an emergency up front and that she needed someone to come up to front immediately. There was a nurse/aide that happened to walk up who was extremely rude, didn’t even make eye contact with us, let alone look at the dog. She said to the front desk lady to have us sit down and fill out the paperwork, while the whole time our dog was wrenching/crying in pain. We waited 45 min. And still was not seen. We were so upset with the customer service and the absolute lack of care at this clinic, I would NEVER bring our pets there again. We drove 20 min to the U of M urgent care, was seen immediately and on our way home within 1 hour, with a much more comfortable dog! Read Less

I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Lamberth and the amazing staff at BAPH. What they have done for me and my cat Fred, is absolutely amazing. Unfortunately Fred had to be put to sleep but the care we received during these last 9 weeks was truly amazing. They cared for him and for me every step of the way. They checked in with me and walked me through each obstacle we faced. I am so grateful to everyone that works there. I would absolutely refer anyone to this clinic! Read Less

We've been taking our pets to Dr. Epping since 2001. When I was young, my parents always took our pets to Dr. Jay's dad, Dr. Norb Epping - he was wonderful and personable. Now as an adult, our family has had lots of pets through the years and I would never trust anyone else with their veterinary care. Dr. Jay has treated us as friends - not just a cash cow (we should own a wing of that hospital with all the pets we've taken to see him). :) When any symptoms one of our pets are having don't point specifically to one illness, he takes the time to ask questions, at length, offers probable causes and testing, but isn't demanding about it. He makes sure they're getting the best possible care but also wants to be sure we are comfortable with his recommendations before he proceeds. He's not a money scammer that some of the people have said in their reviews. Their prices are higher than most veterinarians, but I feel it's worth it. Dr. Jay is stuck with us until he retires!

I took my cat Scout to the clinic for an emergency back in March, he had gotten a thread wrapped around his tongue and it was cutting off blood flow to the tip. I was so distraught, and they were able to get me in right away. I saw Dr. Biele, and I am so thankful I did! Not only did she help to get Scout to make a full recovery, but she made me feel so comfortable throughout the whole process. I now take Scout here for anything I feel he may need a check up for. The staff at the clinic is also very warm and friendly, I would recommend this clinic to anyone looking for quality pet care in the Blaine area! Read Less
