Cherry Valley Veterinary Hospital

Expensive...... Duvall is not Beverly Hills, but they think it is. They are good but try to tack on extra charges. Took my GSP in for a slinter in his foot. He has had a small lump on his back for years that other vets have told me not to worry about unless it gets larger. At Cherry valley, they asked me to look at it, I said ok, they take the dog in the back, tell me to stay in the room. I was thinking look at it, feel it and the dog is on his way. 45 min. later they come back with my dog. Bill.....$125.00 to get the splinter out, $535.00 to "look" at the lump. And without telling me that their "look" would cost so much. I paid but will never go back there. I know they have to pay for that nice building but come on, pricing is rediculous. They are a little farther away but I am sticking with Cottage Lake Vet, they are super nice, professional, expain how much something will cost, before they do it and they have reasonable prices.

I have never been so unbelievably angry. My dog had an accident where a splinter was stuck in her eye. This vet was closing in 10 minutes and they turned us away and said they were closed. This was en emergency situation and they denied care to my animal... how can a place that is supposed to care for animals just leave a puppy to suffer... I would never recommend this vet to anyone, they obviously don't care about animals... Read Less

We always have a good experience with Cherry Valley Vet, Dr. Weeks and all of the staff. Friendly and helpful, plus they really care about your pet(s). They always explain things when I have questions. Yes, I spend a lot of money there, but I don't feel it would be any less if I went somewhere else. Read Less

Over the last three months we have needed to urgently see Dr. Weeks when our dog was having seizures. Both times he saw us immediately and gave our dog Edgar his full attention until the seizures were under control. He was so kind and nurturing to our dog. He also took the time to explain step by step to us what he was doing, and how each medication would effect Edgar. Dr. Weeks and his staff we genuinely concerned about our dogs well being. I could not appreciate their care and patience more. I would recommend Cherry Valley Veterinary to anyone. Read Less

Dr. Weeks and his staff are not only professional they are also genuinely concerned about the health of your pet. I highly recommend them. They've been so great to us when trying to get to the cause of a chronic problem with our cat. Read Less

My 17-year old cat had been to Cherry Valley once last year for shaving (she had very long hair) and once for nail cutting, and both times the price was reasonable and their hours are convenient.  I had previously always used Dr. Mike Treuting when I lived in Snoqualmie.Recently I took her to Cherry Valley when she was very sick and wouldn't eat. I was pretty resigned to the fact that she may need to be put down because of her age. But they gave her some saline solution under the skin because she was very dehydrated, and sent me home with the saline bag & some needles, showing he how to do it, plus some antibiotics and pain killer to give her every day for 5 days. She did perk up and began normal eating and drinking again.  But then two weeks later she started declining again - not eating or drinking; vomiting and dry-heaving when no food was left in her tummy and she was just miserable.  I made the firm decision that she had suffered enough so we took her in for euthanization. Dr. Weeks explained what would happen with the relaxant then the lethal injection, and gave us time to say goodbye. Willow was very calm throughout the process and went peacefully.  I was crying the whole time but was grateful it was painless for Willow in the end. We decided to bury her in our yard rather than leaving her body to be cremated.I definitely would recommend this hospital. Read Less

This is at least my 5th time to take one of my 3 animals to this vet.  All of the other visits were satisfactory  (3 stars or better).  Today's visit was a disaster.  The Dr (Lance)  was rambling about getting hit by a bus in one sentence and in another, telling me that my dogs are not wolves.  He was referring to the fact that they are fed the RAW diet due to allergies.  I informed him that I was advised to do this by their last Vet.  He stated that I should cook their food with no other explanation.  My one dog has skin problems and was just there three weeks ago for the same condition.  He told me he was going to do the same lab work again or I could take her somewhere else.  In all, it was just a really uncomfortable and strange experience.  The receptionist was very nice and I think a little embarrassed by his commentary or so it seemed.  She waived the test and the nail clipping but I called and told her that I felt really uncomfortable with the my experience and I would not return..  Bad day or not, you never treat people with that sort of aggression and apathy.

Our loyalty to Dr. Weeks for the care of our four dogs is over.  We hope sharing our experience will be helpful to those considering using this Vet. Dr. Weeks took for granted our familiarity as his loyal customers and behaved astoundingly unprofessionally towards us over a simple misunderstanding.  Without taking time to fact-check beforehand, we were greeted in the exam room, after a 40 minute wait, by a condescending, combative and beligerant attitude from Dr.Weeks.  It was unreal. Unable to proceed with his obvious aggitation and contempt owards us, we inquired what was going on.Dr Weeks stated he was told by a member of his staff we requested to see another Vet for this appointment and was "highly upset by the disloyalty after all I've done for you ".  We were taken back.  Regardless of how grossly misinformed he was, his behavior toward us was very unprofessional and highly disrespectful.We called to book the appointment a week earlier. The receptionist informed us we would be seeing their temporary vet as Weeks would be out on vacation.  One of our dogs needed to see a vet so we continued with the appointment.  We did not initiate a request to see another Doctor.As we tried to clarify the matter, we asked he show us more courtesy.  Dr. Weeks escalated with childish defensiveness and refused to apologize when the facts came to light. We proceded with the uncomfortable appointment with continued contempt from Dr. Weeks.  He made no effort to regain rapport and our trust.We have been loyal customers for years, with 4 dogs of variying ages and health issues, we gave Dr. Weeks tens of thousands of dollars of our business. We are responsible customers; paying immediately and in-full for very expensive procedures and tests and following Dr.'s Orders to the letter.  Our loyalty to him, and our patience, was generous.  We accommodated often superfluous tests and overlooked his unprofessional attitude many times.  We tolerated, without objection, many expensive procedures and office visits only to be misdiagnosed on several occasions.  Out of respect, we deferred to Dr. Weeks' recommended care for our dogs, which often only amounted to serving his bottom line. We never received one "thank you" when we wrote the checks.Not one, simple "thank you".An example of several costly mistakes we paid for under Dr. Weeks':One of our dogs started to have nose bleeds. Dr. Weeks initially prescribed antibiotics stating it was a bacteria infection. After no improvement and what we later learned were unnecessary tests, the nose bleeds continued without improvement.  It turned out she had nasal cancer. We lost previous time with her ad a result of Dr Weeks' incorrect diagnoses.  Her cancer was diagnosed immediately in a solitary appointment (without previous medical history records) by Cascade Animal Clinic in Monroe - impressive.  And they thanked us as we handed over the check.  Gladly, they are now our new vet, earning our 23k year, minimum, business for our dogs' care. For those seeking a vet in Duvall: We strongly recommend you DO NOT use Dr. Lance Weeks.  Please take advantage of our very costly lessons.   Your business will not be respected - worse,  your pet's health will be compromised at your expense.

I love Dr. Lance Weeks! He was my vet years ago at a clinic in Lynnwood, WA and I was so sad when they closed. I am in Seattle now and his current location is too far to drive but I cannot recommend him more than I do. He is so patient and caring and goes out of his way to care for your pet and then to educate you on how to properly take care of your animals at home.You will not find a better more capable, more kind, gentle, amazing vet for your animals than Dr. Weeks.

This place has been amazing. My dog logan is a bit of a diva and hard to handle. He is a shiba inu and goes crazy at the vets. he has been asked to leave grooming stores because he freaks out so much. The vet here was super patient, kind, and understanding. I trust them with logan. Read Less

I live in Seattle and routinely drive out to Duvall to see Dr.Lance Weeks.  The entire staff is caring, understanding, and takes the time to explain to the pet owner what is going on, and what the options are. Read Less

My wife and I very much appreciate the courtesy and attention we receive for our two Irish Wolfhounds. We have a couple of vets within 5 mins of our house, but find the hour drive up to Duvall well worth it. Read Less

I have been to Cherry Valley Vet many times, twice in emergency situations, and they have always taken my animals and given me a full write up/analysis of the problems. No one has ever been rude to me and I think they do a great job. Read Less
