This is the first Time writing a review for anything, but I needed to do a review on my visit to Affordable pet care Northwest. The reason for my visit was I needed to take in my 11 month old cat to be seen for possible signs of a urinary track infection. My appointment was set up for 930 and I arrived five minutes before my appointment the check in was very smooth and the girls at the front desk were extremely friendly, my daughter and I only had to wait no more than 15 minutes to be called into the exam room. We were helped by Britney who was extremely sweet and attentive to my cat she was able to coax her out of her carrier and my normally stand offish cat was in her arms in no time. She explained exactly what type of treatment would be needed to determine whether or not my cat had a urinary track infection and she explained everything to detail and even explained to me further treatments that my cat would be needed in the future. Britney took my cat to the back to have an ultrasound done and when she returned she returned with veterinarian Charlene Carrera. Dr. Carrera was extremely welcoming and explained exactly what was going on with my pet and the treatment that would be needed. Dr. Carrera also noticed other things that may be an issue in the future with my cat poyito and recommended a special diet and explained exactly how that would work for her and how it would help her prevent stress that could be a contributing factor in her UTI issue. I never felt that she was pushing an added item which was an added expense on me, I felt that she was extremely knowledgeable and was only trying to educate me on the diet to help me. I ended taking her advise and purchased the prescribed diet that was recommended for my pet. I then went to check out to pay my bill and even at that point the receptionist was extremely helpful and also gave me information on the prices on further treatment my pet would need. All I can say about Affordable pet care Northwest is that from beginning to end every employee was extremely helpful, sweet and knowledgeable with everything that was explained and recommended to me. I have always been very iffy about that Vets, I love my pets more than anything they are like my children and I only want the best care possible for all of them and I can highly and will highly recommend Affordable pet care to all my friends and family because of the great service that was given to me during my visit. I give a big thank you to everyone that helped me and my cat Poyito!!! Read Less

Very pleased-not the cheapest, but the most knowledgeable I've had the pleasure of dealing doing business with. Read Less

The staff is very nice. However, our last experience has been less than what we have come to expect. Our dog had an ear hematoma. This was a straight forward issue that required surgery. When we took her in, we never saw the Dr. When they called with an estimate, we asked for some time to make sure the cost was appropriate and make sure we had the funds to cover the costly procedure. 20 minutes later they called back stating that the Dr needed an answer. Then we asked for a break down and discovered they were double billing for anesthesia. Today was our third visit(3 weeks after surgery). Our dogs ear has still not healed well enough to take off the cone and we STILL HAVE NOT SEEN THE DR!!! The tech explained that she may not be healing fast because she is older... she's less than 4yrs old. They don't know her age and they typically call her a boy. They're nice but I'm not sure they are paying as much attention as needed. She now has another ear infection and we had to get more antibiotics. 10 pills for $60... I don't consider that affordable.

This place has always been AWESOME! Used to go to the one on Basse Rd. Many years ago! Adopted a puppy on Monday was able to get him in for a checkup on Wednesday! The staff are super friendly and they show genuine love for their jobs and the animals! The vet tech and vet were very informative gentle and answered any question that popped in my head. Thorough exam, explanation throughout. Test and shots are not forced upon you, unless needed of course. They can even pull up the price for you right in the exam room! The vet was also willing to work amounts around lowering something not so important to help pay for more immediate needs! WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR?! Read Less

Dr. Earl was so compassionate, kind and professional on this really difficult day. Both me and Slinky were handled with the most professional kid gloves I've ever seen in a vet office. TY so much today from getting me in on very short notice to offering coffee/bottled water right away.

I've never had a complaint with APC until now. This is the worst thing that I've ever experienced in my life. We took our cat in for symptoms of a possible UTI. Found out she had 2 large bladder stones. The food didn't dissolve them so surgery was our only option. They let us do a payment plan (which they normally do not do). We took her in and they were kind, thorough, and explained everything. When we picked up she was slightly still drowsy and had staples in her belly (which was about a 3-4" incision.). They helped me get her to the car since I'm 8 months pregnant and can't carry the kennel. I scheduled my appointment to remove the staples 10 days later. NO complaints! On Sat, May 14 I had an apt at 7:40am, got there at 7:30 when they opened and they took her pretty much right then. One of the techs told me that when they removed the staples there was a tiny hole that hadn't completely closed up, so they were suggesting antibiotics to BE SAFE that she wouldn't get any infection. I purchased them for $40. They brought her back out without her soft cone. I said, "Oh, she doesn't need her cone anymore, even with the small hole?" The tech said, "Nope, the vet said she's fine, so we tossed it." I should have said something then, since I did pay for the cone, but honestly I got tunnel vision when I saw her and I was so happy to see my cat without the cone! I took her home and I settled in for a nap. I woke up around 11am I checked her incision; to my horror, she had opened her entire incision! I called my wife crying and took a picture to send it to her. She told me to get her back to the vet NOW. She called the vet to let them know I was on my way. She mentioned to them that even though they were closing at 12pm that they would stay and make this right! I wrapped her in a towel (she was bleeding and oozing) and got her to the vet. They saw me pull up and took her instantly, the tech said, "I'm so sorry, they're probably just going to glue her back up so you don't have to come back." I was called back to speak to the vet (her name escapes me; she was Indian). She instantly said, "Looks like your cat got her cone off and opened her incision!" I was shocked. I replied, "No, she didn't have her cone, I was told that she no longer needed it and that the tech threw it away." She said, "Oh." Then she told me that it was just the outer layer that had opened, not the actual abdomen and said that I had two options. "One, you can take her to another vet that's open since we're closing (yeah pay MORE than the $1,300 I already had) Or two, come back Monday and we can fix this then." I was shocked, "Her belly is open and bleeding. We've already paid for this surgery and I'm not going to blame the cat for licking and opening her wound when YOU GUYS told me that she could lick." VET: "Well, if you can keep her cone on her, she will be fine until Monday. We gave her a complimentary antibiotic shot so you can just throw away the one you just purchased." (Yeah, throw away $40 feels great!) So, I said I would bring her back on Monday for them to fix this; I figured they would clean her up and bandage her up for extra coverage on her wound. NOPE, they brought her back out, WITHOUT a cone. I made sure that I mentioned that I wanted her cone back. They gave her a new one and I went home. Realized they didn't even clean her off. We bandaged her up ourselves cause she was still bleeding and oozing. She was in pain all weekend and very lethargic. Went in Mon and explained to a new tech what happened. When I mentioned what that vet said, she ROLLED HER EYES, said, "Yeah, she doesn't practice here; only on weekends." WHY IS SHE THERE? They took her back and fixed her up for free (well duh). We asked to speak to the owner, but were told he was too busy to meet with us. We wanted to be forgiven our balance ($300) and were told no that they fixed her for free, that should be good enough! Your fault & borderline malpractice. Sending a pet home with an open, bleeding, oozing wound cause you're closing. (I have pictures!) NEVER going back to APC! Read Less

If I can give half a star I would. They should change their name as "inflated pet care". They would try to rip people off. We brought our dog here last December for her eye surgery. She has about 5 growths both eyes. The day of her operation, they pointed out that they are removing 2 growths only, which is different than what they first told us. We insisted on what they are supposed to do and they did the operation.This month we brought our dog again for an exam because she is losing weight too much and we found out she has Stomach Cancer. Being an owner of the same dog for 11 years you would feel devastated. They didn't even show sympathy when suggesting euthanasia and offered to do it the same day. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

We recently bought our daughter a puppy yorkie, and I knew we needed to find a vet right away because our puppy was needing her shots fairly soon. I wanted a vet that took time and really listened to concerns or answered any question I had but also was reasonable on cost. Afordable pet car is exactly that. Everyone is very pleasent and accommodating and don't mind explaining exactly what they are doing and how they can help. It's definitely the place to go if you need immediate appointments as well or if you need to reschedule its not at all an issue. I hope this helps for all the new pet owners out there like me.

The staff is very nice. However, our last experience has been less than what we have come to expect. Our dog had an ear hematoma. This was a straight forward issue that required surgery. When we took her in, we never saw the Dr. When they called with an estimate, we asked for some time to make sure the cost was appropriate and make sure we had the funds to cover the costly procedure. 20 minutes later they called back stating that the Dr needed an answer. Then we asked for a break down and discovered they were double billing for anesthesia. Today was our third visit(3 weeks after surgery). Our dogs ear has still not healed well enough to take off the cone and we STILL HAVE NOT SEEN THE DR!!! The tech explained that she may not be healing fast because she is older... she's less than 4yrs old. They don't know her age and they typically call her a boy. They're nice but I'm not sure they are paying as much attention as needed. She now has another ear infection and we had to get more antibiotics. 10 pills for $60... I don't consider that affordable.

This place has always been AWESOME! Used to go to the one on Basse Rd. Many years ago! Adopted a puppy on Monday was able to get him in for a checkup on Wednesday! The staff are super friendly and they show genuine love for their jobs and the animals! The vet tech and vet were very informative gentle and answered any question that popped in my head. Thorough exam, explanation throughout. Test and shots are not forced upon you, unless needed of course. They can even pull up the price for you right in the exam room! The vet was also willing to work amounts around lowering something not so important to help pay for more immediate needs! WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR?! Read Less

Today I had to take my baby to be euthanized and the entire team from on the phone, to Greg when I came in & all the vet techs and esp. Dr. Earl was so compassionate, kind and professional on this really difficult day. Both me and Slinky were handled with the most professional kid gloves I've ever seen in a vet office. TY so much today from getting me in on very short notice to offering coffee/bottled water right away. For handling the arrangements I was handed a lovely brochure with urn options, the prices all explained even little details like a brass plate for the urn, which I did choose. It was the most dignified and peaceful end for my pet today. I am so very grateful for it. Read Less

I've never had a complaint with APC until now. This is the worst thing that I've ever experienced in my life. We took our cat in for symptoms of a possible UTI. Found out she had 2 large bladder stones. The food didn't dissolve them so surgery was our only option. They let us do a payment plan (which they normally do not do). We took her in and they were kind, thorough, and explained everything. When we picked up she was slightly still drowsy and had staples in her belly (which was about a 3-4" incision.). They helped me get her to the car since I'm 8 months pregnant and can't carry the kennel. I scheduled my appointment to remove the staples 10 days later. NO complaints! On Sat, May 14 I had an apt at 7:40am, got there at 7:30 when they opened and they took her pretty much right then. One of the techs told me that when they removed the staples there was a tiny hole that hadn't completely closed up, so they were suggesting antibiotics to BE SAFE that she wouldn't get any infection. I purchased them for $40. They brought her back out without her soft cone. I said, "Oh, she doesn't need her cone anymore, even with the small hole?" The tech said, "Nope, the vet said she's fine, so we tossed it." I should have said something then, since I did pay for the cone, but honestly I got tunnel vision when I saw her and I was so happy to see my cat without the cone! I took her home and I settled in for a nap. I woke up around 11am I checked her incision; to my horror, she had opened her entire incision! I called my wife crying and took a picture to send it to her. She told me to get her back to the vet NOW. She called the vet to let them know I was on my way. She mentioned to them that even though they were closing at 12pm that they would stay and make this right! I wrapped her in a towel (she was bleeding and oozing) and got her to the vet. They saw me pull up and took her instantly, the tech said, "I'm so sorry, they're probably just going to glue her back up so you don't have to come back." I was called back to speak to the vet (her name escapes me; she was Indian). She instantly said, "Looks like your cat got her cone off and opened her incision!" I was shocked. I replied, "No, she didn't have her cone, I was told that she no longer needed it and that the tech threw it away." She said, "Oh." Then she told me that it was just the outer layer that had opened, not the actual abdomen and said that I had two options. "One, you can take her to another vet that's open since we're closing (yeah pay MORE than the $1,300 I already had) Or two, come back Monday and we can fix this then." I was shocked, "Her belly is open and bleeding. We've already paid for this surgery and I'm not going to blame the cat for licking and opening her wound when YOU GUYS told me that she could lick." VET: "Well, if you can keep her cone on her, she will be fine until Monday. We gave her a complimentary antibiotic shot so you can just throw away the one you just purchased." (Yeah, throw away $40 feels great!) So, I said I would bring her back on Monday for them to fix this; I figured they would clean her up and bandage her up for extra coverage on her wound. NOPE, they brought her back out, WITHOUT a cone. I made sure that I mentioned that I wanted her cone back. They gave her a new one and I went home. Realized they didn't even clean her off. We bandaged her up ourselves cause she was still bleeding and oozing. She was in pain all weekend and very lethargic. Went in Mon and explained to a new tech what happened. When I mentioned what that vet said, she ROLLED HER EYES, said, "Yeah, she doesn't practice here; only on weekends." WHY IS SHE THERE? They took her back and fixed her up for free (well duh). We asked to speak to the owner, but were told he was too busy to meet with us. We wanted to be forgiven our balance ($300) and were told no that they fixed her for free, that should be good enough! Your fault & borderline malpractice. Sending a pet home with an open, bleeding, oozing wound cause you're closing. (I have pictures!) NEVER going back to APC! Read Less

If I can give half a star I would. They should change their name as "inflated pet care". They would try to rip people off. We brought our dog here last December for her eye surgery. She has about 5 growths both eyes. The day of her operation, they pointed out that they are removing 2 growths only, which is different than what they first told us. We insisted on what they are supposed to do and they did the operation.This month we brought our dog again for an exam because she is losing weight too much and we found out she has Stomach Cancer. Being an owner of the same dog for 11 years you would feel devastated. They didn't even show sympathy when suggesting euthanasia and offered to do it the same day. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

We recently bought our daughter a puppy yorkie, and I knew we needed to find a vet right away because our puppy was needing her shots fairly soon. I wanted a vet that took time and really listened to concerns or answered any question I had but also was reasonable on cost. Afordable pet car is exactly that. Everyone is very pleasent and accommodating and don't mind explaining exactly what they are doing and how they can help. It's definitely the place to go if you need immediate appointments as well or if you need to reschedule its not at all an issue. I hope this helps for all the new pet owners out there like me.
