Dr. Sid and his staff at Pacific Avenue Clinic are wonderful. I have a dog, who is my partner, that suffers from an autoimmune syndrome. Dr. Sid has been wonderful during the time it took to find a combination of medications that worked and had few side effects. His staff are professional, caring and have a wonderful sense of humor. But more importantly than those qualities, they are patient. When Dr. Sid examines my dog, he acts like he is the only patient he has. Dr. Sid always answers questions, no matter how inane, because he knows that I am trying to understand everything. He or his staff call, even after clinic hours to check up on my partner. He understands the bond between my service dog and me. Dr. Sid and his staff are always honest. He never does procedures that are not warranted and is quick to offer suggestions to help. I can't say enough about the quality of care that the Pacific Avenue Clinic shows all animals and their partners. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Read Less

We love Pacific Ave vet. Dr. Sid and his team have been taking care of our pets for years. Very capable and friendly. When we've had to say good-bye to cherished dogs, Dr. Sid helped us through the process. Highly recommend. Read Less

I've been a client of Pacific Ave Vet for 19+ years. Dr. Sid is an amazing vet who deeply cares about his patients and goes above and beyond in caring for them from cradle to grave. I cannot thank him and his team enough for their care over the years to so many of beloved Basenjis. As long as I have dogs, I will ONLY ever go to him. Read Less

Dr. Sid has taken care of our family pets for 20 years. Small dogs, large dogs, cats, snakes and turtles have all been well cared for @ Pacific Ave Vet. The staff has helped 3 of our fur family cross the rainbow bridge. I am so glad to have them to trust with our beloved pets. Read Less

Dr Sid is a very caring vet who very clearly cares, not just about the animals he treats, but the pet parents too. We have lived in the area for the last five years with a senior cat with a number of health problems. Dr Sid has been patient and caring through multiple visits and helped keep our cat comfortable in his final years. When the years became too much for our pet, Dr Sid made a house call to help make sure our pet's passing was in a comfortable place both for our cat and for us. It is truly appreciates and when the time comes for another pet, Dr Sid will immediately be our choice of vet again. They also do an outstanding job with pet boarding, particularly for special needs animals on medication. Read Less

I've been coming to Dr Sid since I was 4 years old with my first kitten and dog. Now in my mid-twenties and living in downtown Portland, I still happily drive out to Forest Grove for Pacific Avenue's amazing care. They are so kind and really love what they do, and it shows. The prices are extremely reasonable and they never oversell. You can tell they adore each pet that comes in their as if it was their own. I highly recommend Dr Sid to everyone I know with a pet!

We adore Dr Sid and have been taking our dogs there for nine years. He has seen us through the decline and death of two older dogs, and now sees our young healthy ones. He is kind, compassionate and non judgmental. And, the dogs love him too! Read Less

We are new to the area. We found this clinic after searching around for one that felt like a vets office and not a showroom. Dr. Sid is amazing!!! He treated my dog w. warmth and lots of TLC> The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. We will be coming here for a long time with all our dogs. Read Less

Dr Sid was so friendly and took great care of our dogs. We took our dogs in for shots and flea meds and one of our dogs ended up having a bit of a reaction to the shot. They got us in super quick to check him out. We will for sure be coming back. You can tell Dr Sid and his staff genuinely care. Read Less

Dr Sid was absolutely great with our dogs! We took our dogs in for shots and flea meds and one of our pets had a slight reaction to one of the shots. They made sure to get us in quick to have him checked out. They genuinely care for the animals they care for. We will for sure be returning! Read Less

I haven't gone in, but I called. I'm in a situation where my pet NEEDS help, and I can't get the pet credit thing, and my pet insurance hasn't kicked in yet. Judging from what the young lady who answered the phone said, it's obvious that these people don't care about anyone's pet, more so the money that they can make off of it. Every single vet in the states of Washington, and Oregon have told me to basically go home and watch her get worse. There's more blood in her stool than there is stool, and yet all I get is "yeah, somethings wrong with her, but we can't help her." A good friend recommended this place to me, saying that they DO care. It's been proven otherwise by a quick 5 minute phone call.Read Less

Dr. Sid and his friendly, very capable and caring staff provide exceptional veterinary service. They have treated our many 'pets' most of which are rescues, over many years with compassion. We appreciate the excellent care our companions receive at Pacific Avenue Veterinary Clinic. Read Less

Dr. Sid is great. Our fur baby woke up sick and Dr. Sid worked him into his full schedule. On top of that, he called to check in on him the next day. We will definitely be returning with the whole fur family. Read Less

This place is very good. Dr Sid is willing to spend the time to talk to you and will even call you at home to discuss issues. He helped me through many crisis with my elderly cats and they are still going strong thanks to him. Read Less

We can't say enough positive things about Dr. Sid and his team. They are wonderful! They are very patient with all our questions and always seem to recommend conservative options as is our preference. They really seem to care about the animals and take their time to get to know them and you.Read Less

I've been taking my fur family to Dr. Sid for many years ... ever since he started his practice in Forest Grove. He and his office staff are the wonderful. And they put up with my over-the-top concern for my animals. :) They're tops in my opinion! Read Less

Dr Sid and the entire team are wonderful with our fur kids. We trust them completely. Great grooming for our poodle and doodle. Compassionate care when we had to have our old dog put down. We recommend this team to anyone!Read Less

I moved to Forest Grove in January 2013 and chose Pacific Avenue Vet for my dog because of a review on Google which said Dr. Sid had been so compassionate when they had to put a pet down, and that he had come to their home to do the procedure - I knew that I might be having to make such a decision soon for my dog, and this was of paramount importance to me. My dog ended up living a year and 3 months longer, and the staff at Pacific Avenue Vet were always wonderful with her when she came for shots or medication or nail clippings (something she HATED and it took three staff members to hold her for it). I also took my mentally-challenged neighbor there when her dogs needed vaccinations and some treatment, and they treated her with respect, explained things slowly, and were able to give her a much-needed break on prescriptions. Then a neighborhood cat got injured in a fight with a raccoon - I found the cat just as I was getting ready to go to the airport for a business trip, and the vet was happy to take in the cat on my way to the airport. And then it was time to let my dog go: Dr. Syd came to our home, as promised more than a year ago, and was so compassionate, so caring - he treated my dog, and us, so gently, and talked us through exactly what was happening. His staff made all the arrangements regarding her cremation and the return of her ashes to me. As someone else noted, you need to make an appointment - they get VERY busy - but you can call if your pet needs some immediate attention, but not an emergency, and very often they can get you in later in the day. EDITED ADDITION: Had to move this to the best review possible. They are just so outstanding with our new puppy. I've even just stopped by to get her used to going in, and they are always happy to see her. Read Less

We've been going to PAVC since we moved to Forest Grove in 97. Through many cats, some with serious challenges, Dr Sid has been great. His staff has changed thru the years, but they always take good care of our babies.  I would recommend appointments as they do get busy. Also you can do a drop-off in the morning of your appointment. They are also open until 7pm on Wednesdays. Read Less

Great care, kind people. Highly recommended!You can also go to their sister clinic in Cornelius for the same level of care. Cornelius Veterinary Clinic. I've taken my dog both places and they've provided excellent care at reasonable prices. Read Less

My family & I have been taking both of our dogs here for 10 years now and I absolutely love this place. Dr. Sid is always great.  His staff is super friendly as well. If you ever have an emergency you can call his emergency number and he will help out, which is pretty neat. I know many people who go here and are just as satisfied as I am. Dr. Sid is a Super smart & caring man. I really recommend this place :) Read Less
