I'd give them negative million stars if I could. INCOMPETENT. My belief is their licenses are from a cracker jack box. Guess what I found out after my first dog died. Her breed is prone to tumors on their spleen. You'd think her vet would know that and check for it. No. Turns out she had an undiagnosed tumor on her spleen. It ruptured one night and she bled to death. Guess what my second dog died of - Stomach Cancer. Dr Palmer's diagnosis was enzyme issues. By the time I got my dog to a specialist they could hardly see her organs due to the cancer. Don't go here. Ever. My current dogs go where they are well taken care of. Oh, and a couple years after you tell them to never talk to you again, ever, and that you very nearly sued the crud out of them, so they really, really need to make sure they never talk to you again, they sell your name to a marketing company to try and get you to come back. I had a panic attack this morning when I started getting emails from them. So, now I'm doing what I told them I would do if they contacted me again. I'm writing reviews online to tell others how INCOMPETENT this place really is. Read Less

Upd2.: Staff is getting better :) Upd.: Doctor's are generally pretty good, but staff screws up way too often. The latest latest one: called in early morning asking to talk to the doctor about potentially life threatening condition of my cat - should I bring him immediately or it's better just to watch him as stress might be the major factor. Staff told me she would talk to the doctor and they let me know promptly if I need to bring the cat. About three hours later I'm calling back and the same staff tells me she "left a note for the doctor who saw your cat last year, this doctor will be in in the afternoon". Well, maybe it's better to talk to the doctor that is currently in, not the doctor who saw my cat last year, especially if it's a potentially life threatening condition, no? "Oh yes, sorry"... Still waiting for them, meanwhile checking if there are other good clinics in the area. The latest one: they wanted my dog to take some sedation before coming in, but they failed to mention it has to be 90 minutes before, not right before the appointment. So they refused to see the dog. Had to reschedule for later same day. With them things like that happen more often than they statistically should. Read Less

Honestly I'm sad that I have to switch vets because I really love the staff here. The staff gets 5 stars. This rating is because of ridiculous prices and up selling to customers. Unfortunately when we come in and see a particular doctor our prices are way over priced. Our typical doctor is dr. Peterson and she understands we have two dogs that are both puppies, which gets expensive quick. She typically discusses with me what is absolutely necessary and what is optional. However, when we meet with the other doctor, our prices are maxed out. For example, I took her in today because she has blood in her pee so wanted to make sure we get her on antibiotics if she has a UTI. After examining and discussing options the doctor quoted that the price would be $350. I questioned her and told her I really can't afford that. I mean if you have puppies you know how expensive it can get. We were JUST in there a couple of weeks ago for ticks... and before that for an abscess between her toes... and just before that, a cold. So I paid the $350 because I want my pup feeling better, but I called around when I got home and other vets in the area charge $100+ less. It's ridiculous. When I was questioning the total price to this doctor, she jokingly asked if I had a credit card to put it on, one that has fun rewards. That seems pretty unprofessional, especially when talking with someone who is expressing financial concerns and is also worried about getting their dog properly treated. Then she got up and proceeded on with the tests. So unfortunately we are switching vets. It's the last thing I want to do because like I said I really enjoy the staff here and I know they take good care of my pups. But they also up sell A LOT and it seems unethical to do when people are just trying to make sure they aren't neglecting their dogs health. I'm so bummed but I'm also not rich, unfortunately, and because I'm someone who makes sure my dogs are getting the proper care it seems this place is taking advantage of me. Read Less

I see a lot of reviews about services for cats and dogs, but I have a pet cockatiel and Frontier vet clinic exceeded my expectations. Before finding this place, I called several other clinics and none of them provided services for birds. Dr. Peterson is the vet who took care of my little guy and to say the least, I did not leave dissatisfied. Dr. Peterson definitely knows what she’s doing and handled my bird with extreme caution and care, despite him being stubborn when touched without permission. She explained all information clearly and throughly and even gave me helpful suggestions on how to have him live the healthiest and best life possible. I definitely recommend Dr. Peterson to anyone who is in need of a vet for birds. Read Less

With our last dog (RIP), we saw probably every single vet in this practice. He had health issues and they were all great about presenting our options in a very neutral, realistic way. When he was no longer able to fight, they provided the best end-of-life care imaginable, including follow-up: A tree planted in his honor, a clay mold of his paw print, and a personal call from a one of the vets expressing condolences when he heard that Spartacus was no longer with us. Now that we have a new furbaby, I didn't think twice about which clinic would be overseeing my pups' care. Thank you, Frontier! Read Less

I'm on the fence about this place. My initial visit was for rabies shots for my 2 dogs, 'senior' dog exam and blood work for 1, and to address red staining in another. We ended up getting their 'preventative' packages, thinking it would save us money in the end, but now I'm not convinced it was the best way to go. One of my dogs had already had a yearly exam a few months ago, so all that testing wasn't all that necessary - which I specifically told the vet not to run, but they did it anyway (the office staff told me it was automatically run with the package deal). Guess it doesn't matter what the owner requests. The other dog did need a senior physical and blood work, plus several booster vaccines (in addition to the rabies), so it may have been a better deal for her.  I have accident and illness coverage on both dogs and was unable to use the office visit charge against my deductible for the one dog that needed red stain treatment. Since the exam charge was included in the package deal, its unclear if it can be applied toward the deductible. We were at Frontier for 2 hrs for all this on a rare sunny Sunday afternoon. I can't help thinking this may have taken just 45 minutes at my previous vet. We've recently moved and Frontier is much closer to home now, so I do want to like this place. I'm just a little skeptical of their pricing. My previous vet charges $48 for an exam. Frontier charges $57 (I think, only because $28.50 was taken off my bill for each dog, which would have been the new client exam discount), and during the exams I was never once asked what kind of food they were on, and whether they'd vomited recently or had diarrhea. Something my previous vet ALWAYS asked. We spent almost $800 on the 'preventative packages' and meds the one dog received for red staining. I specifically asked for an itemized invoice so I could see for myself what the prices of every single thing was. That's apparently not something they can do easily, as I was told they'd have to snail mail it to me. The invoice I ended up walking out the door with showed just the package deal price with line items with $0.00 in the Price column. So at this point I have no idea what their prices are. Also, in addition to the package prices there's an add on line item stating: ADD29: Add-On Pt/Ptt for $35.00. Both dogs invoices have this add on and I have no idea what its for. I was on the phone for a good 20 minutes today with them trying to decipher their invoices and forgot to ask about that $35 charge for both dogs. I can tell you I won't be getting preventative packages in the future for the very reason I don't know what they're charging. Their flyer says its up to 26% off their regular prices, but that doesn't tell me anything, really. Guess I'll wait for the snail mail invoices and do some comparative pricing then. I was just disappointed overall with the pitch on preventative packages and like other reviewers have stated, it came off in the end feeling like a scam, especially for the one younger dog who'd had an exam recently with another vet. Not to mention he apparently got an unnecessary parasite intestinal screen, bloodscreen and heart worm antigen test against my request to forego those. Read Less

I recently moved and need to find a new vet. Choosing the right clinic for my cat is extremely important. Reviews online sometimes make this more difficult. I decided to check google reviews for Frontier because this is the clinic I had brought my pets to for years and figured I could try and decipher the relevant reviews to the non-relevant ones. Having said that, after reading the reviews here I felt it was important to add my experience. I had a very bad experience with a previous vet and needed to find a new one immediately. My cat had an absessed tooth and it was causing her a lot of pain. Previous vet did the exam and told me there were no appointments for 2 weeks. That's when I called Frontier. From the start they put me at ease. They could get her in the next day for the extraction and cleaning. My cat had a general fear of vets, or anyone trying to pick her up. She was my attack cat, old and cranky. Having watched her hiss, scratch and bite different people and vets caused me a lot of stress (my cat too). The entire staff here went above and beyond my expectations. They listened to my concerns and fears and had a plan on how we could make the visit stress free for the both of us. My heart breaks that I live so far away now because I have never experienced the kindness and patience that this entire clinic showed us. I highly recommend Frontier to anyone who is looking for a vet! Read Less

We have been clients at Frontier for quite a few years. Last night we had an extremely ill cat. Dr. Peterson and the entire staff working last night diagnosed our cat and were so supportive when we had to make our decision to let her pass. It was a pretty sad evening for our whole family and they were the best - making sure she was comfortable and that we could spend a few last moments with her.

Today, I received a follow up call from Dr. Peterson, again expressing her condolences and reassuring me that I made the right decision for our beloved Arwen. This is not the first time the staff and the vets at Frontier have reached out with that personal touch. Each time my animals receive medical care, I get a follow up call to ask me how things are going and to be there for us.

I took my 3 pound yorkiepoo here due to an absessed tooth.  They took her temperature,  nothing, ran her stats,  nothing, she got a clean bill of health, aside from the tooth which required antibiotics. (Exactly what we brought her in there for)Not let's see what happens next:  wait for it ....So, they performed preventative "necessary" blood work additionally for another $180.00.  Prescriptions for antibiotics and pain for another $115.00 BUT now don't forget the office visit fee of $80  :)  THE NEXT DAY:   I get a call from a different vet at the clinic telling me her blood work came back showing other issues and that I needed to bring her in to be hospitalized immediately - furthermore that I needed to stop the medication they gave her the day before as it was prescribed wrong - yep, you read that right, they prescribed her the wrong medicine!!  She proceeded to tell me that because my dog was not eating and dehydrated that she must come in.  (But wait, how did she know this?  My dog was with me all day and night ... hmmmm)  my dog had been eating soft foods just fine and drinking water.   NEEDLESS TO SAY, I was not falling for this, I informed the vet that I was on to her scam and that at this point I'd prefer to visit used car lots all day long hearing their sales pitches than hear her sales scam.  I also told her I was offended that she tried to make me feel as though I didn't care about my dog!!!  I demanded she email me the blood work to review. I KNOW YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO MY DOG, RIGHT?   well, I took her to my regular vet from over 3 years ago in Seattle,  (I moved to PDX just recently)  I emailed the blood work to my former vet and guess what?  Ha ha ha ha ha - he informed me to run fast!  Stay away and that I was being scammed.  And NOW ....... cricket is 100% fine - and she never had to receive any treatment at all - IMAGINE THAT!!  so, stay away, just as I was advised.

We've taken our two dogs to Frontier for the last 6ish years. The staff at Frontier has always treated Cedar and Rylie like they were family and we have never questioned the care that they've received. We feel lucky that we found Frontier right away when we first moved to Hillsboro. Now that we are moving away I can only hope we will find a vet half as great as Frontier! Thanks for everything (with a special thanks to Dr. Yung)! :) Read Less

Unfortunately my first experience with the wonderful staff was at one of the hardest times. My boy was sick and his kidneys shut down and it was time to say goodbye. The staff from the front desk to the doctors could not have made this experience any gentler. From the first time we walked through the door for tests to the time we had to say goodbye to our boy, we were treated like family. The doctors were honest and upfront, they spoke to us clearly and made sure we knew and understood every step and what to expect. My wife and I have seen a few different vet clinics in the area and always left feeling ignored or talked down to like we didn't really matter until it was time to pay the bill and leave. After our experience with Frontier Animal Hospital we will never take our other pets anywhere else. The lobby is warm and inviting and there is even a couple of partitioned waiting areas to separate the more active pets from those not want wanting to play. There is coffee, sodas and snacks. Everything about the office to the staff makes you feel comfortable and cared for. Thank you to all the amazing staff. My only wish is that I found this place sooner. Read Less

I wouldn't take my baby, Bella Boo, anywhere else! Every doctor we have seen at Frontier has demonstrated a genuine effort to care for our dog. They work well as a team assuring the best possible care. Dr. Lisa Yung is Bella's primary doctor. She is absolutely amazing! Bella has some physical limitations where pain management is necessary--Dr. Yung provides acupuncture which has dramatically improved Bella's quality of life. She also treats Bella for allergies. What a blessing Dr. Yung is for our family. Her communication and bedside manner have exceeded our expectations. Jesse is another member of the staff that shines. She treats you like family and always makes time to answer any questions I may have regarding Bella. I highly recommend Frontier. I've always been pleased with there service.

This place might have the proper permits, but it is not a vet clinic. It is a SCAM for gullible people who think paying more for standard procedures will somehow benefit their pet (a vaccine provides the same benefit whether it costs $28 or $146). The prices listed on the website are NOT ACCURATE. The discount for first time clients DOES NOT APPLY to any service you think you want (it only applies to the exam fee, NOT THE TOTAL COST LIKE THE WEBSITE SAYS and only when the exam is a part of certain bundles, but not others). IT IS NOT POSSIBLE to reserve the special cat room for your cat. I was, however, told the OPPOSITE over the phone when I called to confirm. I had really wanted to use the special cat room too, and they were very rude about it when I said I had tried to reserve it. It was not until I was in the exam room asking detailed question about pricing and asking to see paperwork that I realized I was in for about $400-500 more than I bargained for. For basic services, like flea drops and booster shots. For two young healthy adult cats. The way the bundling/packaging works is designed to mislead you until it is time to pay and too late. The facility is kind of disappointing-- no changing table in the bathroom (not at all kid-friendly), no special cat-only waiting room as advertised.... dirty floors in the exam room (don't they clean these things between clients? ewwww) ... but they do have a keurig coffee maker and a diet coke mini fridge to help you feel better about your ridiculous bill I guess. I feel sorry for the people who take their pets here. Read Less

I have been bringing my dog Lucy to Frontier Vet for 7 years and couldn't be happier with the care that Lucy gets here.  Our doctor, Dr Lisa Yung, saved Lucy's life 6 1/2 years ago when she suffered unexplained kidney failure. I often wonder if Lucy would have survived that ordeal had we taken her to any other pet hospital.  Dr. Yung prescribed the perfect blend of meds and supportive care that helped Lucy pull through and fully recover.  Lucy is not only alive today at 9 years old, but happy, healthy and thriving!  We have since moved away from Hillsboro (going on 4 years now), but I continue to take Lucy to Frontier for all of her health needs and gladly make the 35 minute drive from our new home.  Frontier is a first class vet hospital with very knowledgable and caring doctors and staff.  They have earned my highest trust and respect!

We were lucky to found this vet office when my husband and I relocated to Hillsboro from outer SE Portland with 2 cats and 2 dogs.  Every animal has been to the office *atlast* once, and they have been well taken care of.  I love the waiting area, they have private (gated) waiting areas, where you can still be aware of what is going on, but it gives privacy if you have a more reactive dog, or a cat that you want to keep seperate.  It is very well planned, designed and executed.  Also, out of the waiting room and into the exam room they have electronic tables that rise up, so you don't have to lift a very heavy animal onto the table awkwardly.  Again, the technology is well used, and it is well designed so you can latch your pup into the table and then rise it up.  In addition to taking care of the pets (which is plenty) they do fun things around Christmas like pictures with Santa, and they do a food/treat drive for Bonnie Hays local pet shelter.  I've been very pleased with this office and would highly recommend it to anyone.  The staff is great, Jessie at the front end is amazing and so is everyone!!  Also, Dr. Yung is a very practical, and experienced practioner, all our pets adore her!  Every single staff member I have came across has been amazing, I can not recommend this office enough!!

We've been going to Frontier for 8 years with our German Shepherd dog, Gunther. We have always been happy with the treatment and care he received. The facilities are very nice and the staff care deeply about the animals that come through the doors. We were always greeted by name when we walked in, and the Drs. always took a lot of time with our dog. We never felt rushed.I see the costs of Frontier called out in a few reviews. Can you find cheaper care for your pet elsewhere? I'm sure you can. But I don't think you'll find better care for your pet.I'd like to call out the professionalism of Dr. Lisa Yung in particular. She was our dog's vet at the end of his life and she was outstanding. I've never met a Dr. with more compassion for animals than Dr. Yung, and she was a real source of strength for our family during a difficult time.

**** This review is for pet boarding only ****I recently boarded my little miniature pinscher here and he enjoyed his time here! Located along Cornell Road across the street from Costco - Hillsboro and McDonald's lies Frontier Vet Hospital, which is in the same plaza as a storage center, a thai restaurant and kindergarten/pre-school day-care center.A couple weeks before I left for my vacay, I called Frontier and asked about their rates ($26/night) which was pretty much cheaper than PetSmart on 185th ($28/day). This is great for a student on a budget! Rates are different for cats ($18) and other animals. I believe it's an additional $21 for a second dog to be boarded as well. Furthermore, if you'd like to add other items to your boarding care, it ranges from $4.50 (for extra TLC play time, brushing) to $7 (for extended play time, tooth brushing, pampering - per session). There are extra charges if your pet requires to be given meds or needs to be watched extra closely if they have a medical condition. Frontier Vet Hospital was available to give me a tour that day which was a clean facility and they showed me a little area where they play with the dogs outside (and where they do their business). I like that they are open early so you can drop your pet off and late enough so you can pick them up if you get back a bit later (Hours = M-F: 7AM-8PM, SAT: 8AM-5PM, SUN: 9AM-1PM).You pretty much fill out paperwork and give instructions about how you would care for your pet. You are more than welcome to bring your own pet items (bed, blankets, toys and food) as long as you put your pets name on the items. Service was great! The associates and staff members were delighted to take care of my little one. In addition, when I called over my vacay, they were able to inform me of my dog's status! When I came back from my vacation and picked up my dog, he was happy to see me, jumping for joy! He did look like he was a bit skinnier, but he's a picky eater anyways. Nonetheless, I wouldn't mine boarding him here again! Read Less

If it were not for the calm, caring and thorough demeanor and professionalism of the people that work at Frontier, I think I would have lost my mind today. I desperately tried to find a vet for my Siberian Husky who was shaking, uncharacteristically lethargic and refusing food. I headed straight for Frontier thanks to the "Save our pets" sticker left for firemen by the previous owners of our home. Once I saw this place, I knew I was going to be happy. Barely able to think, I rushed in asking if they could see a possible emergency. They of course were up and ready, putting me fast at ease. Every person that I encountered was FANTASTIC. I would drive out of my way to always take my furry children to this Vet. Thank you so much Frontier. You have won my heart. Read Less

I'd give them negative million stars if I could. INCOMPETENT. My belief is their licenses are from a cracker jack box. Guess what I found out after my first dog died. Her breed is prone to tumors on their spleen. You'd think her vet would know that and check for it. No. Turns out she had an undiagnosed tumor on her spleen. It ruptured one night and she bled to death. Guess what my second dog died of - Stomach Cancer. Dr Palmer's diagnosis was enzyme issues. By the time I got my dog to a specialist they could hardly see her organs due to the cancer. Don't go here. Ever. My current dogs go where they are well taken care of. Oh, and a couple years after you tell them to never talk to you again, ever, and that you very nearly sued the crud out of them, so they really, really need to make sure they never talk to you again, they sell your name to a marketing company to try and get you to come back. I had a panic attack this morning when I started getting emails from them. So, now I'm doing what I told them I would do if they contacted me again.

Upd2.: Staff is getting better :) Upd.: Doctor's are generally pretty good, but staff screws up way too often. The latest latest one: called in early morning asking to talk to the doctor about potentially life threatening condition of my cat - should I bring him immediately or it's better just to watch him as stress might be the major factor. Staff told me she would talk to the doctor and they let me know promptly if I need to bring the cat. About three hours later I'm calling back and the same staff tells me she "left a note for the doctor who saw your cat last year, this doctor will be in in the afternoon". Well, maybe it's better to talk to the doctor that is currently in, not the doctor who saw my cat last year, especially if it's a potentially life threatening condition, no? "Oh yes, sorry"... Still waiting for them, meanwhile checking if there are other good clinics in the area. The latest one: they wanted my dog to take some sedation before coming in, but they failed to mention it has to be 90 minutes before, not right before the appointment. So they refused to see the dog. Had to reschedule for later same day. With them things like that happen more often than they statistically should. Read Less

Honestly I'm sad that I have to switch vets because I really love the staff here. The staff gets 5 stars. This rating is because of ridiculous prices and up selling to customers. Unfortunately when we come in and see a particular doctor our prices are way over priced. Our typical doctor is dr. Peterson and she understands we have two dogs that are both puppies, which gets expensive quick. She typically discusses with me what is absolutely necessary and what is optional. However, when we meet with the other doctor, our prices are maxed out. For example, I took her in today because she has blood in her pee so wanted to make sure we get her on antibiotics if she has a UTI. After examining and discussing options the doctor quoted that the price would be $350. I questioned her and told her I really can't afford that. I mean if you have puppies you know how expensive it can get. We were JUST in there a couple of weeks ago for ticks... and before that for an abscess between her toes... and just before that, a cold. So I paid the $350 because I want my pup feeling better, but I called around when I got home and other vets in the area charge $100+ less. It's ridiculous. When I was questioning the total price to this doctor, she jokingly asked if I had a credit card to put it on, one that has fun rewards. That seems pretty unprofessional, especially when talking with someone who is expressing financial concerns and is also worried about getting their dog properly treated. Then she got up and proceeded on with the tests. So unfortunately we are switching vets. It's the last thing I want to do because like I said I really enjoy the staff here and I know they take good care of my pups. But they also up sell A LOT and it seems unethical to do when people are just trying to make sure they aren't neglecting their dogs health. I'm so bummed but I'm also not rich, unfortunately, and because I'm someone who makes sure my dogs are getting the proper care it seems this place is taking advantage of me. Read Less

When he was no longer able to fight, they provided the best end-of-life care imaginable, including follow-up: A tree planted in his honor, a clay mold of his paw print, and a personal call from a one of the vets expressing condolences when he heard that Spartacus was no longer with us.

I like my veterinarian a lot. I have Dr. Marcus for my kitties and she's great with animals. You can really tell that she likes what she does. I felt it was a little pricey for just some vaccines and check-ups, but I don't really mind paying a little extra because the care they give is outstanding, and I'll only be going in when my pets are sick anyway. A lot of vets in the area have similar pricing anyway. Read Less

I'm on the fence about this place. My initial visit was for rabies shots for my 2 dogs, 'senior' dog exam and blood work for 1, and to address red staining in another. We ended up getting their 'preventative' packages, thinking it would save us money in the end, but now I'm not convinced it was the best way to go. One of my dogs had already had a yearly exam a few months ago, so all that testing wasn't all that necessary - which I specifically told the vet not to run, but they did it anyway (the office staff told me it was automatically run with the package deal). Guess it doesn't matter what the owner requests. The other dog did need a senior physical and blood work, plus several booster vaccines (in addition to the rabies), so it may have been a better deal for her.  I have accident and illness coverage on both dogs and was unable to use the office visit charge against my deductible for the one dog that needed red stain treatment. Since the exam charge was included in the package deal, its unclear if it can be applied toward the deductible. We were at Frontier for 2 hrs for all this on a rare sunny Sunday afternoon. I can't help thinking this may have taken just 45 minutes at my previous vet. We've recently moved and Frontier is much closer to home now, so I do want to like this place. I'm just a little skeptical of their pricing. My previous vet charges $48 for an exam. Frontier charges $57 (I think, only because $28.50 was taken off my bill for each dog, which would have been the new client exam discount), and during the exams I was never once asked what kind of food they were on, and whether they'd vomited recently or had diarrhea. Something my previous vet ALWAYS asked. We spent almost $800 on the 'preventative packages' and meds the one dog received for red staining. I specifically asked for an itemized invoice so I could see for myself what the prices of every single thing was. That's apparently not something they can do easily, as I was told they'd have to snail mail it to me. The invoice I ended up walking out the door with showed just the package deal price with line items with $0.00 in the Price column. So at this point I have no idea what their prices are. Also, in addition to the package prices there's an add on line item stating: ADD29: Add-On Pt/Ptt for $35.00. Both dogs invoices have this add on and I have no idea what its for. I was on the phone for a good 20 minutes today with them trying to decipher their invoices and forgot to ask about that $35 charge for both dogs. I can tell you I won't be getting preventative packages in the future for the very reason I don't know what they're charging. Their flyer says its up to 26% off their regular prices, but that doesn't tell me anything, really. Guess I'll wait for the snail mail invoices and do some comparative pricing then. I was just disappointed overall with the pitch on preventative packages and like other reviewers have stated, it came off in the end feeling like a scam, especially for the one younger dog who'd had an exam recently with another vet. Not to mention he apparently got an unnecessary parasite intestinal screen, bloodscreen and heart worm antigen test against my request to forego those. Read Less

I recently moved and need to find a new vet. Choosing the right clinic for my cat is extremely important. Reviews online sometimes make this more difficult. I decided to check google reviews for Frontier because this is the clinic I had brought my pets to for years and figured I could try and decipher the relevant reviews to the non-relevant ones. Having said that, after reading the reviews here I felt it was important to add my experience. I had a very bad experience with a previous vet and needed to find a new one immediately. My cat had an absessed tooth and it was causing her a lot of pain. Previous vet did the exam and told me there were no appointments for 2 weeks. That's when I called Frontier. From the start they put me at ease. They could get her in the next day for the extraction and cleaning. My cat had a general fear of vets, or anyone trying to pick her up. She was my attack cat, old and cranky. Having watched her hiss, scratch and bite different people and vets caused me a lot of stress (my cat too). The entire staff here went above and beyond my expectations. They listened to my concerns and fears and had a plan on how we could make the visit stress free for the both of us. My heart breaks that I live so far away now because I have never experienced the kindness and patience that this entire clinic showed us. I highly recommend Frontier to anyone who is looking for a vet! Read Less

We have been clients at Frontier for quite a few years. Last night we had an extremely ill cat. Dr. Peterson and the entire staff working last night diagnosed our cat and were so supportive when we had to make our decision to let her pass. It was a pretty sad evening for our whole family and they were the best - making sure she was comfortable and that we could spend a few last moments with her. They made a very difficult time bearable. Today, I received a follow up call from Dr. Peterson, again expressing her condolences and reassuring me that I made the right decision for our beloved Arwen. This is not the first time the staff and the vets at Frontier have reached out with that personal touch. Each time my animals receive medical care, I get a follow up call to ask me how things are going and to be there for us. In good times and less than good times, they have always displayed high levels of professionalism and an even higher level of humanity and caring. Thank you to the entire team.Read Less

I wouldn't even take a stray rat to this place!  All they want is your money and to play your heart strings to get it!  Don't go here!  STOP  ~ find a vet via referral only. I took my 3 pound yorkiepoo here due to an absessed tooth.  They took her temperature,  nothing, ran her stats,  nothing, she got a clean bill of health, aside from the tooth which required antibiotics. (Exactly what we brought her in there for)Not let's see what happens next:  wait for it ....So, they performed preventative "necessary" blood work additionally for another $180.00.  Prescriptions for antibiotics and pain for another $115.00 BUT now don't forget the office visit fee of $80  :)  THE NEXT DAY:   I get a call from a different vet at the clinic telling me her blood work came back showing other issues and that I needed to bring her in to be hospitalized immediately - furthermore that I needed to stop the medication they gave her the day before as it was prescribed wrong - yep, you read that right, they prescribed her the wrong medicine!!  She proceeded to tell me that because my dog was not eating and dehydrated that she must come in.  (But wait, how did she know this?  My dog was with me all day and night ... hmmmm)  my dog had been eating soft foods just fine and drinking water.   NEEDLESS TO SAY, I was not falling for this, I informed the vet that I was on to her scam and that at this point I'd prefer to visit used car lots all day long hearing their sales pitches than hear her sales scam.  I also told her I was offended that she tried to make me feel as though I didn't care about my dog!!!  I demanded she email me the blood work to review. I KNOW YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO MY DOG, RIGHT?   well, I took her to my regular vet from over 3 years ago in Seattle,  (I moved to PDX just recently)  I emailed the blood work to my former vet and guess what?  Ha ha ha ha ha - he informed me to run fast!  Stay away and that I was being scammed.  And NOW ....... cricket is 100% fine - and she never had to receive any treatment at all - IMAGINE THAT!!  so, stay away, just as I was advised. (I was never refunded the $60 for the wrong medication either) :)   love your furrbaby, just as I do mine!!  :) WATCH THIS VIDEO!!  hulu.com/watch/563222 Read Less

Unfortunately my first experience with the wonderful staff was at one of the hardest times. My boy was sick and his kidneys shut down and it was time to say goodbye. The staff from the front desk to the doctors could not have made this experience any gentler. From the first time we walked through the door for tests to the time we had to say goodbye to our boy, we were treated like family. The doctors were honest and upfront, they spoke to us clearly and made sure we knew and understood every step and what to expect. My wife and I have seen a few different vet clinics in the area and always left feeling ignored or talked down to like we didn't really matter until it was time to pay the bill and leave. After our experience with Frontier Animal Hospital we will never take our other pets anywhere else. The lobby is warm and inviting and there is even a couple of partitioned waiting areas to separate the more active pets from those not want wanting to play. There is coffee, sodas and snacks.

This place might have the proper permits, but it is not a vet clinic. It is a SCAM for gullible people who think paying more for standard procedures will somehow benefit their pet (a vaccine provides the same benefit whether it costs $28 or $146). The prices listed on the website are NOT ACCURATE. The discount for first time clients DOES NOT APPLY to any service you think you want (it only applies to the exam fee, NOT THE TOTAL COST LIKE THE WEBSITE SAYS and only when the exam is a part of certain bundles, but not others). IT IS NOT POSSIBLE to reserve the special cat room for your cat. I was, however, told the OPPOSITE over the phone when I called to confirm. I had really wanted to use the special cat room too, and they were very rude about it when I said I had tried to reserve it. It was not until I was in the exam room asking detailed question about pricing and asking to see paperwork that I realized I was in for about $400-500 more than I bargained for. For basic services, like flea drops and booster shots. For two young healthy adult cats. The way the bundling/packaging works is designed to mislead you until it is time to pay and too late. The facility is kind of disappointing-- no changing table in the bathroom (not at all kid-friendly), no special cat-only waiting room as advertised.... dirty floors in the exam room (don't they clean these things between clients? ewwww) ... but they do have a keurig coffee maker and a diet coke mini fridge to help you feel better about your ridiculous bill I guess.

We were lucky to found this vet office when my husband and I relocated to Hillsboro from outer SE Portland with 2 cats and 2 dogs.  Every animal has been to the office *atlast* once, and they have been well taken care of.  I love the waiting area, they have private (gated) waiting areas, where you can still be aware of what is going on, but it gives privacy if you have a more reactive dog, or a cat that you want to keep seperate.  It is very well planned, designed and executed.  Also, out of the waiting room and into the exam room they have electronic tables that rise up, so you don't have to lift a very heavy animal onto the table awkwardly.  Again, the technology is well used, and it is well designed so you can latch your pup into the table and then rise it up.  In addition to taking care of the pets (which is plenty) they do fun things around Christmas like pictures with Santa, and they do a food/treat drive for Bonnie Hays local pet shelter.  I've been very pleased with this office and would highly recommend it to anyone.  The staff is great, Jessie at the front end is amazing and so is everyone!!  Also, Dr. Yung is a very practical, and experienced practioner, all our pets adore her!  Every single staff member I have came across has been amazing, I can not recommend this office enough!!

The staff here is so personable - made me feel at ease while I waited for my kitty to be done with his procedure. Dr. Palmer is absolutely wonderful! You can tell she genuinely cares about each individual animals needs. She called me personally to follow up with how my cat was doing after his procedure, which had taken 3+ hours to perform. I can't tell you how much it means to me!As for those complaining about pricing - animal care is not cheap, and Frontier is technically a specialty office - a full service hospital for animals. Having pets can be pricey! You are paying for expert care here.Thank you so much Frontier! Read Less

We've been going to Frontier for 8 years with our German Shepherd dog, Gunther. We have always been happy with the treatment and care he received. The facilities are very nice and the staff care deeply about the animals that come through the doors. We were always greeted by name when we walked in, and the Drs. always took a lot of time with our dog. We never felt rushed.I see the costs of Frontier called out in a few reviews. Can you find cheaper care for your pet elsewhere? I'm sure you can. But I don't think you'll find better care for your pet.I'd like to call out the professionalism of Dr. Lisa Yung in particular. She was our dog's vet at the end of his life and she was outstanding. I've never met a Dr. with more compassion for animals than Dr. Yung, and she was a real source of strength for our family during a difficult time. She's everything you could want in a vet, and we're so glad that Gunther got the best care possible while we had him. Read Less

**** This review is for pet boarding only ****I recently boarded my little miniature pinscher here and he enjoyed his time here! Located along Cornell Road across the street from Costco - Hillsboro and McDonald's lies Frontier Vet Hospital, which is in the same plaza as a storage center, a thai restaurant and kindergarten/pre-school day-care center.A couple weeks before I left for my vacay, I called Frontier and asked about their rates ($26/night) which was pretty much cheaper than PetSmart on 185th ($28/day). This is great for a student on a budget! Rates are different for cats ($18) and other animals. I believe it's an additional $21 for a second dog to be boarded as well. Furthermore, if you'd like to add other items to your boarding care, it ranges from $4.50 (for extra TLC play time, brushing) to $7 (for extended play time, tooth brushing, pampering - per session). There are extra charges if your pet requires to be given meds or needs to be watched extra closely if they have a medical condition. Frontier Vet Hospital was available to give me a tour that day which was a clean facility and they showed me a little area where they play with the dogs outside (and where they do their business). I like that they are open early so you can drop your pet off and late enough so you can pick them up if you get back a bit later (Hours = M-F: 7AM-8PM, SAT: 8AM-5PM, SUN: 9AM-1PM).You pretty much fill out paperwork and give instructions about how you would care for your pet. You are more than welcome to bring your own pet items (bed, blankets, toys and food) as long as you put your pets name on the items. Service was great! The associates and staff members were delighted to take care of my little one. In addition, when I called over my vacay, they were able to inform me of my dog's status! When I came back from my vacation and picked up my dog, he was happy to see me, jumping for joy! He did look like he was a bit skinnier, but he's a picky eater anyways. Nonetheless, I wouldn't mine boarding him here again! Read Less

If it were not for the calm, caring and thorough demeanor and professionalism of the people that work at Frontier, I think I would have lost my mind today. I desperately tried to find a vet for my Siberian Husky who was shaking, uncharacteristically lethargic and refusing food. I headed straight for Frontier thanks to the "Save our pets" sticker left for firemen by the previous owners of our home. Once I saw this place, I knew I was going to be happy. Barely able to think, I rushed in asking if they could see a possible emergency. They of course were up and ready, putting me fast at ease. Every person that I encountered was FANTASTIC. I would drive out of my way to always take my furry children to this Vet. Thank you so much Frontier. You have won my heart. Read Less
