After 6 years of going to this clinic with all of my pets and after spending almost 14 THOUSAND dollars at this clinic in those 6 years the Chief of Staff Kopman has decided that he is "not comfortable" performing the neuter surgery on my new puppy. Background story: 2.5 years ago he performed the spay on my 6 month old Pekingese and it did not go well, in my opinion. I've had 10+ pets over the past 30 years and some do better than others but this little girl was in a lot of pain post-surgery. Keep in mind that this was during the height of the pandemic so I could not get her into any ER to try to reduce her pain or get another opinion and trying to get an appointment back with this clinic was difficult as well. The pandemic and severe vet shortage only added to the stress of this surgery. That said, they did squeeze me in and I returned to the clinic several times questioning why she was in so much pain and why she had so much discharge and pleaded with them to help her. I asked for a different doctor so I could obtain a second opinion and this, from what I can determine, is where Kopman's ego took a hit as I was told by the office manager Renee that he had written notes in my file that I had "trust issues". So, from what I can tell, if you question this guy's work he's going to notate your file and then refuse to perform any other surgery on any of your other pets!! I mentioned above that he's the Chief of Staff so, according to office manager Renee, NOT ONLY will HE not perform any surgery but neither will he allow any of the other vets to do so. I will NOT feel bad about advocating for my pet! Her experience was nothing like any of the other 10+ pets (both dogs and cats) that I have had and have been spayed/neutered so of course I'm going to question his work! SHE WAS IN PAIN! I'd like to point out that I new nothing about these notes for the entire 2.5 years after that surgery where they CONTINUED TO TAKE MY MONEY for everything else! I only learned about those notes 2 weeks ago when I tried to schedule my new puppy for his neuter. And, after 7 YEARS of my loyalty and patronage AND after taking almost 14 THOUSAND DOLLARS from me, Kopman didn't even have the decency nor the guts to call me HIMSELF and tell me this information. He had office manager Renee do it instead. SHAME ON YOU KOPMAN AND SHAME ON YOU HEARTHWOOD! For those of you reading this, if you want to place yourself in a situation where you are not allowed to question the chief of staff's work then go ahead and keep giving this clinic your money. For those of you who refuse to let vet egos get in the way of advocating for your pets then I recommend you go someplace else. Read Less

I looked up the reviews and initially felt comfortable coming in, as there are a lot of great reviews. My mind has changed. I took my cat in. Was told the rabies shot was mandatory, and it was $27, I understood and agreed. This estimate was wrong, it was more. I’m sure they are sorry for the “wrong estimate”. I feel like everyone should be in the know of prices at the office. Long story short: they did a procedure he ended up not needing, furthermore the doctor had no idea what was wrong with my cat. I really didn’t appreciate how I was debriefed. It wasn’t by the doctor, but by the nurse while I was paying to leave in the front office. I had questions that couldn’t be answered by the nurse, so I then requested to talk to the doctor. She came out. I asked if there was anything she could at least suggest was wrong with my cat, there wasn’t. She offered me to purchase another kit or bring in samples later. She had never heard of the issue I was having. To summarize, my problems are: I was charged $115 for a procedure my cat didn’t need and to be told, “I don’t know what’s wrong with your cat.” I was misquoted. I didn’t appreciate being debriefed by someone who couldn’t answer questions in the lobby as I’m on my way out the door. I didn’t appreciate paying for a procedure my cat didn’t need. I didn’t appreciate being misquoted a dollar amount. I still don’t know what is wrong with my cat. At the very least, I could have been told: “If this problem persists, please bring him in and we will check him again since we couldn’t find the problem this time,” or “let us do some blood work and see if that’s normal.” But nope, nothing was offered or suggested and I had to ask more than a few times of any possibilities. I guess I have to go to another vet. I won’t be back. Read Less

We have gone to Heartwood for over 20 years now with two different dogs. They are very professional and caring. All the staff and Veterinarians have always been very sweet and genuine. Near the end before our first dog passed away from old age, the doctors took their time examining her and gave us a lot of advice and different options. I never felt rushed or uninformed. We have also had a few emergency accidents in the past to which they were always able to get her in the same day, usually within an hour or two. I have recommended Heartwood to friends who have had negative experiences with other Veterinarian facilities. Please keep doing you! Read Less

We have been taking our beagle boys to this clinic for the last 20 years. Over the years there have been changes in staff, but all personnel have been cheerful and helpful. Dr. Kopman is a favorite with our boys. You can tell when an animal has confidence in his care provider. We love the fact that the clinic sends out reminders of upcoming appointments and of overdue shots. With multiple animals, it is difficult to remember who needs what. The prices are fair, and let's face it, good healthcare is not cheap. We highly recommend this clinic. Read Less

Hearthwood has been a wonderful vet for our dog, Ernie. We started seeing them when we moved to Vancouver from Portland about six months ago. Ernie was a 15-year-old Yorkie mix with a heart murmur and congestive heart failure. He coughed a lot due to his condition. The staff at Hearthwood kept up with how the medications we had him on were working, calling to get updates and making sure the dosages were right. Last week, he woke up struggling to breathe and refusing food (he ALWAYS ate). We took him in and were told the devastating news that his heart condition had advanced to the point where there was nothing more we could do for him. Dr. Sandra Memenis was compassionate, gentle, and empathetic as we said goodbye to our best friend. She was genuine and I truly believe she cares for each client, human and animal alike. The service cost was very reasonable and they even sent us home with a tasteful paw print of our dog with for no extra charge. Then, yesterday, we received a condolences card in the mail from the staff of the hospital, each signing their name, with a personalized note about Ernie from Dr. Memenis herself. I couldn't ask for a better experience during a very difficult time. The staff cares, the expense is reasonable, and the animals are well taken care of. Thank you, Hearthwood, for helping to ensure our dog's last moments were calm and full of love. Read Less

Everyone in this place knows how to treat their 2 and 4 legged guest with love and compassion.They won me over and they will you too, especially if you want one on one care, no rushing, and no corporate upselling of stuff you don't need or can't afford.I hope anyone looking for a personal, caring & knowledgeable clinic, will come here and know their pet WILL be cared for, not run through and then get a bill.Jerry Read Less

I had my dog Nala go here after realizing how expensive the place I went before was.... that being said, I can't give these guys enough credit. I took my dog in for her initial visit and then scheduled a teeth cleaning along with a couple teeth pulled. They listened to my concerns and I could tell they truly cared. And on the day of the surgery, they even called me as soon as Nala was done to let me know things went smoothly.

I have seen almost every vet in Vancouver, between taking my own pets, relatives and friends pets, and animals that I have fostered. There are quite a few really great vets here in Vancouver, but Dr. Kopman truly stands apart. Now I will say that I originally met Dr. Kopman when I was working at Banfield, so I got to see him with tons of other people's pets and got to see what he was like behind the scenes. What sets his apart most is his love for animals and compassion for people. He takes the time to listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and I have never seen him scold anyone for not doing something that they should have been doing. I have seen him go above and beyond to help people out when it comes to making tough financial decisions, this doesn't mean he is going to pay your bills, this means that if there is test that can wait, a prescription that can be filled cheaper at a different pharmacy, or a cheaper option to try first, he will do it. What people don't always understand is that vets offer, and may even try and push, a variety of tests and preventative care for a pet, not because they are trying to steal your hard earned money, but because they care about your pet and want to make sure that they offer you every possible option to care for your pet. If your pet was throwing up and the vet gives them some anti nausea medication and didn't even offer other testing services, you would feel confident that your pet will be fine. The next day your pet is worse or  possibly dies, and it turns out your pet had something wrong that could have easily been diagnosed by a fecal, blood work, or an x-ray and could have been saved if diagnosed earlier, you would be really upset! What I LOVE about Dr. Kopman is that he will do things step by step, or all at once if he really believes it is that serious. He is generally always willing to take a conservative approach, and if he is really pushing some extra tests I know that it's serious. Cost, because I know that that is important to most of us. Hearthwood isn't the cheapest place in town, but you will spend less here than compared to Banfield, Companion, and many others. Banfield may have less expensive office calls, but they will make it up by over charging for other services, trust me I used to work for them. I almost forgot to mention! Dr. Kopman offers his time and services to a local cat rescue called Furry Friends. He is a busy man, but still takes the time to see the facility, offer assistance when needed, and gives them medication for the same cost as he pays. I will never take my pets anywhere else and I can't sing their praises enough.  Thank you Sam, we appreciate you so much! Read Less

Recently I've had some stomach issues with my dog. We have been coming to this vet for quite sometime. Basic shots and checkups seemed to go ok. I brought my schnauzer in twice in a month for bloody diarrhea which really frightened us. They did two blood tests and two basic exams which were NOT cheap ($284 this last time). They didn't really have any advise or solution that one couldn't have read on the Internet. We left feeling more confused than before we went. Like "did that just happen?!" They totally took our money and didn't do a damn thing. We will be looking for another vet at this point rather than pay the $700 they quoted us for the next blood tests and exam for allergies. Thanks but no thanks. Read Less

We've taken our animals to Hearthwood for a number of years - when it was owned by Dr. Pruitt and later, with Dr. Kopman.  While we have trust in Dr. Kopman, we've found that there seems to be a 'revolving door' of techs and assistant vets.  We never know which vet will be seeing our animals. Other than Dr. Kopman, the assistant vets are usually uninformed about our pet's condition (they don't seem to know the pet's chart / medical history).  Just recently, we took our dog in for her immunizations and the tech insisted on performing (and charging) for a wellness exam, even though the dog had just recently visited an emergency vet clinic and had a wellness exam, including extensive labs, performed there 2 weeks before.  The wellness exam information had been forwarded to Hearthwood, but they refused to acknowledge the medical report from the other vet.  The tech was more concerned with charging the additional $65 for the unnecessary exam rather than in ensuring that our dog received her immunizations.  We're sorry to leave Dr. Kopman, but will be looking for another local vet.

Edited on Feb 5 2015: I just wanted to update this after being with them for a year. Our kitty is a senior cat and has developed two chronic diseases in the time we have had her, which means we have been frequent fliers at the vet! I still stand by my initial review, and would like to add how wonderfully my family and my pet have been treated by the staff, nurses and doctors here. I have a toddler who is very "sprited" who usually has to attend appointments with me and they are so incredibly patient and gracious with us. My kitty has received quality, compassionate care from them always. I would 100% recommend this clinic to anyone in search of a vet! Initial review: We just had our first appointment with out first pet with Hearthwood today. They are great! The receptionists up front were kind. I felt the doctor really spent time examining our kitty, and explained everything very clearly. The price for the exam was super-reasonable. I am really pleased to find such a great vet so close to my home! Edit - I also wanted to include the place was very clean! So important!!! Read Less

After moving to Vancouver, it no longer made sense for me to drive out to Beaverton to take my Husky mix to the vet; I needed to find a local option to get a checkup and have her vaccinations updated. I selected Hearthwood Dog & Cat Clinic after doing some online research (including Google and Yelp reviews) and because they are a reasonable driving distance. What I liked: The staff was very friendly, welcoming and seemed to show genuine interest in my dog. Within five minutes of checking in we were taken to an exam room. From the time that we arrived until the time that we left was no more than 25 minutes. They didn't keep us waiting nor did I feel that they rushed through. I feel like their prices were very affordable and I didn't feel pressured to pay for additional services. For example, it's been years since she had her teeth professionally cleaned. But the vet (Sandra) pointed out that she had some mild tartar buildup but that the overall condition of her teeth were great and didn't push for her to get a cleaning. One thing I didn't like: The location next to Mill Plain. My dog is very nervous by nature. I adopted her at around the age of 3 and had a hard time socializing her. She still doesn't get along with other animals and random things scare her: loud noises, ceiling fans, balloons, etc. When something scares her, she's been known to bolt and no amount of training over the years has been able to teach her to return to me when called if she's in one of her panicked states. She's also been known to be able to back out of harnesses and collars with enough struggling. Hearthwood's building is roughly 15 feet from Mill Plain Blvd. There's a lot of traffic. One of the activities that scares my dog is walking into buildings that smell like shelters, groomers, and vets. She walked on leash just fine right up to the front door... and then slammed on the brakes and started backing up. I had to carry my 70 lbs. dog inside because I was worried that if she struggled hard enough against the leash, she'd be able to pull out of her harness (she's done it many times). Just keep that in mind if your dog is anything like mine. Read Less

Sam Kopman is a wonderful vet.  I have two cats, and one of them has IBD, diabetes, pancreatitis, and asthma.  Plus, she's a diva extraordinaire on top of it, so saying she can be a little fractious to work with is an understatement.  I'm no slacker when it comes to caring for my animals, and I do my own research as to what treatments might be worthwhile -- this hasn't always gone over well with a lot of vets, as my experience has mostly been that they'd rather I shut the hell up and mutely do what they say -- not always, but out of the gazillion we've seen in the past, only two of them haven't had that egocentric vet attitude to some degree (you know what I mean if you've experienced it -- ack!).  Sam is compassionate, smart, and treats me like I have a brain -- and is completely lacking in snotty vet 'tude.  The clinic is clean, the prices are more than reasonable, the staff is fantastic (shout outs to Sue, Stephanie, and Jennifer).  Phone calls will be returned, emergencies will be dealt with ASAP, treatment plans will be explained, and research will be done to find the best possible options for your animal's good health.  You absolutely cannot go wrong with Hearthwood Dog and Cat Clnic.

I have been using Hearthwood Dog and Cat Clinic since I moved to Vancouver from the midwest 2 years ago.  They take excellent care of my pets (2 cats and a small dog) and were willing to work us in when my dog was sick and I was new in town.  They are very reasonably priced, more than willing to fax me new copies of shot records that I keep misplacing, and very personable.  It's not the brightest or newest facility, but it is clean and the staff are friendly with me and the beasts.

After 6 years of going to this clinic with all of my pets and after spending almost 14 THOUSAND dollars at this clinic in those 6 years the Chief of Staff Kopman has decided that he is "not comfortable" performing the neuter surgery on my new puppy. Background story: 2.5 years ago he performed the spay on my 6 month old Pekingese and it did not go well, in my opinion. I've had 10+ pets over the past 30 years and some do better than others but this little girl was in a lot of pain post-surgery. Keep in mind that this was during the height of the pandemic so I could not get her into any ER to try to reduce her pain or get another opinion and trying to get an appointment back with this clinic was difficult as well. The pandemic and severe vet shortage only added to the stress of this surgery. That said, they did squeeze me in and I returned to the clinic several times questioning why she was in so much pain and why she had so much discharge and pleaded with them to help her. I asked for a different doctor so I could obtain a second opinion and this, from what I can determine, is where Kopman's ego took a hit as I was told by the office manager Renee that he had written notes in my file that I had "trust issues". So, from what I can tell, if you question this guy's work he's going to notate your file and then refuse to perform any other surgery on any of your other pets!! I mentioned above that he's the Chief of Staff so, according to office manager Renee, NOT ONLY will HE not perform any surgery but neither will he allow any of the other vets to do so. I will NOT feel bad about advocating for my pet! Her experience was nothing like any of the other 10+ pets (both dogs and cats) that I have had and have been spayed/neutered so of course I'm going to question his work! SHE WAS IN PAIN! I'd like to point out that I new nothing about these notes for the entire 2.5 years after that surgery where they CONTINUED TO TAKE MY MONEY for everything else! I only learned about those notes 2 weeks ago when I tried to schedule my new puppy for his neuter. And, after 7 YEARS of my loyalty and patronage AND after taking almost 14 THOUSAND DOLLARS from me, Kopman didn't even have the decency nor the guts to call me HIMSELF and tell me this information. He had office manager Renee do it instead. SHAME ON YOU KOPMAN AND SHAME ON YOU HEARTHWOOD! For those of you reading this, if you want to place yourself in a situation where you are not allowed to question the chief of staff's work then go ahead and keep giving this clinic your money. For those of you who refuse to let vet egos get in the way of advocating for your pets then I recommend you go someplace else. Read Less

I looked up the reviews and initially felt comfortable coming in, as there are a lot of great reviews. My mind has changed. I took my cat in. Was told the rabies shot was mandatory, and it was $27, I understood and agreed. This estimate was wrong, it was more. I’m sure they are sorry for the “wrong estimate”. I feel like everyone should be in the know of prices at the office. Long story short: they did a procedure he ended up not needing, furthermore the doctor had no idea what was wrong with my cat. I really didn’t appreciate how I was debriefed. It wasn’t by the doctor, but by the nurse while I was paying to leave in the front office. I had questions that couldn’t be answered by the nurse, so I then requested to talk to the doctor. She came out. I asked if there was anything she could at least suggest was wrong with my cat, there wasn’t. She offered me to purchase another kit or bring in samples later. She had never heard of the issue I was having. To summarize, my problems are: I was charged $115 for a procedure my cat didn’t need and to be told, “I don’t know what’s wrong with your cat.” I was misquoted. I didn’t appreciate being debriefed by someone who couldn’t answer questions in the lobby as I’m on my way out the door. I didn’t appreciate paying for a procedure my cat didn’t need. I didn’t appreciate being misquoted a dollar amount. I still don’t know what is wrong with my cat. At the very least, I could have been told: “If this problem persists, please bring him in and we will check him again since we couldn’t find the problem this time,” or “let us do some blood work and see if that’s normal.” But nope, nothing was offered or suggested and I had to ask more than a few times of any possibilities. I guess I have to go to another vet. I won’t be back. Read Less

We have gone to Heartwood for over 20 years now with two different dogs. They are very professional and caring. All the staff and Veterinarians have always been very sweet and genuine. Near the end before our first dog passed away from old age, the doctors took their time examining her and gave us a lot of advice and different options. I never felt rushed or uninformed. We have also had a few emergency accidents in the past to which they were always able to get her in the same day, usually within an hour or two.

Hearthwood has been a wonderful vet for our dog, Ernie. We started seeing them when we moved to Vancouver from Portland about six months ago. Ernie was a 15-year-old Yorkie mix with a heart murmur and congestive heart failure. He coughed a lot due to his condition. The staff at Hearthwood kept up with how the medications we had him on were working, calling to get updates and making sure the dosages were right. Last week, he woke up struggling to breathe and refusing food (he ALWAYS ate). We took him in and were told the devastating news that his heart condition had advanced to the point where there was nothing more we could do for him. Dr. Sandra Memenis was compassionate, gentle, and empathetic as we said goodbye to our best friend. She was genuine and I truly believe she cares for each client, human and animal alike. The service cost was very reasonable and they even sent us home with a tasteful paw print of our dog with for no extra charge. Then, yesterday, we received a condolences card in the mail from the staff of the hospital, each signing their name, with a personalized note about Ernie from Dr. Memenis herself. I couldn't ask for a better experience during a very difficult time. The staff cares, the expense is reasonable, and the animals are well taken care of. Thank you, Hearthwood, for helping to ensure our dog's last moments were calm and full of love. Read Less

I have seen almost every vet in Vancouver, between taking my own pets, relatives and friends pets, and animals that I have fostered. There are quite a few really great vets here in Vancouver, but Dr. Kopman truly stands apart. Now I will say that I originally met Dr. Kopman when I was working at Banfield, so I got to see him with tons of other people's pets and got to see what he was like behind the scenes. What sets his apart most is his love for animals and compassion for people. He takes the time to listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and I have never seen him scold anyone for not doing something that they should have been doing. I have seen him go above and beyond to help people out when it comes to making tough financial decisions, this doesn't mean he is going to pay your bills, this means that if there is test that can wait, a prescription that can be filled cheaper at a different pharmacy, or a cheaper option to try first, he will do it. What people don't always understand is that vets offer, and may even try and push, a variety of tests and preventative care for a pet, not because they are trying to steal your hard earned money, but because they care about your pet and want to make sure that they offer you every possible option to care for your pet. If your pet was throwing up and the vet gives them some anti nausea medication and didn't even offer other testing services, you would feel confident that your pet will be fine. The next day your pet is worse or  possibly dies, and it turns out your pet had something wrong that could have easily been diagnosed by a fecal, blood work, or an x-ray and could have been saved if diagnosed earlier, you would be really upset! What I LOVE about Dr. Kopman is that he will do things step by step, or all at once if he really believes it is that serious. He is generally always willing to take a conservative approach, and if he is really pushing some extra tests I know that it's serious. Cost, because I know that that is important to most of us. Hearthwood isn't the cheapest place in town, but you will spend less here than compared to Banfield, Companion, and many others. Banfield may have less expensive office calls, but they will make it up by over charging for other services, trust me I used to work for them. I almost forgot to mention! Dr. Kopman offers his time and services to a local cat rescue called Furry Friends. He is a busy man, but still takes the time to see the facility, offer assistance when needed, and gives them medication for the same cost as he pays. I will never take my pets anywhere else and I can't sing their praises enough.  Thank you Sam, we appreciate you so much! Read Less

Recently I've had some stomach issues with my dog. We have been coming to this vet for quite sometime. Basic shots and checkups seemed to go ok. I brought my schnauzer in twice in a month for bloody diarrhea which really frightened us. They did two blood tests and two basic exams which were NOT cheap ($284 this last time). They didn't really have any advise or solution that one couldn't have read on the Internet. We left feeling more confused than before we went. Like "did that just happen?!"

We've taken our animals to Hearthwood for a number of years - when it was owned by Dr. Pruitt and later, with Dr. Kopman.  While we have trust in Dr. Kopman, we've found that there seems to be a 'revolving door' of techs and assistant vets.  We never know which vet will be seeing our animals. Other than Dr. Kopman, the assistant vets are usually uninformed about our pet's condition (they don't seem to know the pet's chart / medical history).  Just recently, we took our dog in for her immunizations and the tech insisted on performing (and charging) for a wellness exam, even though the dog had just recently visited an emergency vet clinic and had a wellness exam, including extensive labs, performed there 2 weeks before.  The wellness exam information had been forwarded to Hearthwood, but they refused to acknowledge the medical report from the other vet.  The tech was more concerned with charging the additional $65 for the unnecessary exam rather than in ensuring that our dog received her immunizations.  We're sorry to leave Dr. Kopman, but will be looking for another local vet.

Our kitty is a senior cat and has developed two chronic diseases in the time we have had her, which means we have been frequent fliers at the vet!

I have a toddler who is very "sprited" who usually has to attend appointments with me and they are so incredibly patient and gracious with us. My kitty has received quality, compassionate care from them always. I would 100% recommend this clinic to anyone in search of a vet! Initial review: We just had our first appointment with out first pet with Hearthwood today. They are great! The receptionists up front were kind. I felt the doctor really spent time examining our kitty, and explained everything very clearly. The price for the exam was super-reasonable. I am really pleased to find such a great vet so close to my home! Edit - I also wanted to include the place was very clean! So important!!! Read Less

We have been with Hearthwood Dog and Cat since 1999 when we moved here and have been nothing but delighted with the service, quality and caring staff. We have two dogs and had two cats.

After moving to Vancouver, it no longer made sense for me to drive out to Beaverton to take my Husky mix to the vet; I needed to find a local option to get a checkup and have her vaccinations updated. I selected Hearthwood Dog & Cat Clinic after doing some online research (including Google and Yelp reviews) and because they are a reasonable driving distance. What I liked: The staff was very friendly, welcoming and seemed to show genuine interest in my dog. Within five minutes of checking in we were taken to an exam room. From the time that we arrived until the time that we left was no more than 25 minutes. They didn't keep us waiting nor did I feel that they rushed through. I feel like their prices were very affordable and I didn't feel pressured to pay for additional services. For example, it's been years since she had her teeth professionally cleaned. But the vet (Sandra) pointed out that she had some mild tartar buildup but that the overall condition of her teeth were great and didn't push for her to get a cleaning. One thing I didn't like: The location next to Mill Plain. My dog is very nervous by nature. I adopted her at around the age of 3 and had a hard time socializing her. She still doesn't get along with other animals and random things scare her: loud noises, ceiling fans, balloons, etc. When something scares her, she's been known to bolt and no amount of training over the years has been able to teach her to return to me when called if she's in one of her panicked states. She's also been known to be able to back out of harnesses and collars with enough struggling. Hearthwood's building is roughly 15 feet from Mill Plain Blvd. There's a lot of traffic. One of the activities that scares my dog is walking into buildings that smell like shelters, groomers, and vets. She walked on leash just fine right up to the front door... and then slammed on the brakes and started backing up. I had to carry my 70 lbs. dog inside because I was worried that if she struggled hard enough against the leash, she'd be able to pull out of her harness (she's done it many times). Just keep that in mind if your dog is anything like mine. Read Less

Because it is their policy, Hearthwood forces you to get a wellness check for your pet even though the card you get in the mail only mentions a shot. I argued the point and said "but it's my cat and my bank account..I only want the shot." It is "our policy ". Time to contact the attorney general to see if this is some sort if entrapment and/or trickery designed, of course, to pad their own bank accounts. Read Less

I've lived in the Portland area for several years, and have lived in Vancouver for just over a year. When I moved up here I was nervous taking my dog to a new vet, but I am so glad that I found Hearthwood Dog & Cat Clinic. I have met with each of the different doctors here, and they (as well as all of the support staff) really care about my dog. When we added a kitten to our family he got the same attention and quality care that our dog has received. They are also very reasonably priced, and I have never once felt pressured to spend money there. I've had my dog for 4 years, and we've lived in 4 states, and visited 5 vets since I got him. This one is BY FAR the best. I could not be happier. Read Less

Sam Kopman is a wonderful vet.  I have two cats, and one of them has IBD, diabetes, pancreatitis, and asthma.  Plus, she's a diva extraordinaire on top of it, so saying she can be a little fractious to work with is an understatement.  I'm no slacker when it comes to caring for my animals, and I do my own research as to what treatments might be worthwhile -- this hasn't always gone over well with a lot of vets, as my experience has mostly been that they'd rather I shut the hell up and mutely do what they say -- not always, but out of the gazillion we've seen in the past, only two of them haven't had that egocentric vet attitude to some degree (you know what I mean if you've experienced it -- ack!).  Sam is compassionate, smart, and treats me like I have a brain -- and is completely lacking in snotty vet 'tude.  The clinic is clean, the prices are more than reasonable, the staff is fantastic (shout outs to Sue, Stephanie, and Jennifer).  Phone calls will be returned, emergencies will be dealt with ASAP, treatment plans will be explained, and research will be done to find the best possible options for your animal's good health.  You absolutely cannot go wrong with Hearthwood Dog and Cat Clnic.

I have been using Hearthwood Dog and Cat Clinic since I moved to Vancouver from the midwest 2 years ago.  They take excellent care of my pets (2 cats and a small dog) and were willing to work us in when my dog was sick and I was new in town.  They are very reasonably priced, more than willing to fax me new copies of shot records that I keep misplacing, and very personable.  It's not the brightest or newest facility, but it is clean and the staff are friendly with me and the beasts.

I live in Portland and take my cat here to this clinic in Vancouver, because they have the exact same services and they are about half the price of Portland vets.  I don't know why Portland is so much more expensive for basic vet services.  I'm not talking about surgery here....just basic stuff like a blood panel, which is around $250 here in P-town, and about $120 up there in the Couve.It's a no-brainer.
