Went to the clinic during normal business hours today and no one was there. They left no indication that they would be closed today.

Diagnosed , treated and saved my daughters geckos when their demise was quickly approaching. A big Thank You to the Owners and Staff. As well as to 5280 Reptiles for the confident no doubt about it referral. Thanks Kyle.

Been going here for 32 years on our third dog, Dr. Schererville and staff has been good to my dogs. My neighbors also go to Western Animal Clinic after I told them how good they are.

The vet was nice enough, but the people who work the front desk were not. They don't really have control over the whole walk up hours and were unnecessarily nasty when I tried to ask questions. They let people who showed up after me go ahead of me because they were getting vaccines and that was faster.. It was very frustrating since they claim a first come first served model. I don't think this place is worth it even though you don't need an appointment.

Took my dog in for itching and the vet never even looked him over. Just put him on meds. Took him to another vet and they instantly noticed a skin infection put him on antibiotics and he's now back to his old mischievous ways. Won't be going back to western

Great experience they don't have appointments just scheduled times to show up. They took our info when we arrived stayed in our car while we waited. We waited about 1 1/2 hours then they came and let us know we we're next. We had plenty of time with the doctor which very nice and knowledgeable about our sulcata tortoise! The whole staff was very friendly low prices and we'll definitely be back with our dogs as well!!

For me it was a last min emergency referred by another clinic. They were quiet busy just at the end of the day with walk ins. The staff was right on point. Very organized getting everyone in and out. So very nice, each and every one of them. I think I have found a lifetime match.

The women that work here are the nastiest people.! They are rude and come off very unintelligent. If I were you I'd find another place to take my animals. In this time and in this place we need people to come together, not divide. They are very angry. If you have something going on in your personal life that's negative, you should not bring that negativity to work with you! You should seek some kind of counseling or if you don't like your job...quit!

Dr S (WoW)!!! Him and his STAFF!! the efficiency the friendliness the professionalism the care absolute TOP NOTCH! a Dr with a two way dialogue is fantastic. He is engaged compassionate and cares about the animal - he will ask questions you haven’t thought of to help problem solve. To top it all off the pricing is insanely affordable! Just as good if not better IMO then PPH and Day and night difference in treatment and service compared to Planned PetHood (they even answer their phones) sorry that has to be said but if you’ve ever been to PPH you’ll know why I mention this. I also prefer this clinic over Denver West Vet a more expensive vet IMO, because you can be in the treatment room with your pet and their kindness just really makes you feel like you’re in good hands here. A weight off your stressed chest! Your animals aren’t a dollar sign rotating in and out of their doors - THEY GENUINELY CARE AND IT SHOWS! I know pricing always varies per patient and treatment plans but my CKD kitty Tucker was getting SubQ treatments for only $25 each with waived office visits fees (so appreciative of Dr S for this). The kitty in the picture is Mr Smackers he (was) a diabetic kitty now in remission! THANK YOU WESTERN ANIMAL CLINIC I CANT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT HOW THANKFUL I AM FOR FINDING YOU!! Try them out and thank me later :)

Excellent service. Wonderful with our dog. Actually cares about the animals and their owners. They don't dig deep into your pockets either. We are very pleased.

My new vet and I love them. My canine companion had an exam, shots, nail trim, and antibiotic eye drops. Know what it cost? 64 bucks! Great service, kind to animals, and a great price! The only downside was the wait in the hot sun. Get there early and bring some water.

They're wonderful, they give treats, talk to our pets! I've got 3 chihuahuas, they got their yearly vaccinations, it a job getting all 3 vaccinated! They call by our names n welcome walk-ins! No need to go anywhere else, plus I always recommend! Now if everything went that smooth, that would great, follow Western Animal Clinic!

They are the best! Knowledgeable, friendly employees and not over priced. I left Planned Pethood for them and so happy that I did!

This place is wonderful! I was going to another vet, but it was a total rip off. The team at Western is fantastic and truly cares about helping animals. The value is beyond fair to the point of being so good that I've asked if they charged me for everything they should have. They don't try to make me do unnecessary tests or give my pup extra shots he doesn't need. They are honest and just want to do what's best. I'm so glad I found this place!! Some people may have an issue with not being able to schedule an appointment, but if you get there early enough it's not a big deal. It's also nice if your pet gets hurt you can get them in pretty quickly. My dog broke his dew claw one afternoon and by the next morning he was in and taken care of...with other vets I would have had to wait days and been charged a fortune. Highly recommend these guys!! It may not be the fanciest office (which is nice and helps keep costs down I'm sure), but it's the most caring and considerate!

Went here for 30 years until one day when I needed to put down a dog I was made to wait 2 hours while EVERYONE else was seen before me including people who came in after myself. When I confronted the large lady at the front desk and the male vet I was told that if I wasn't happy I could go somewhere else because they had a busy practice. All the 5 star ratings are laughable and a bit cringe.

Man, please make sure to read through the variety of complimentary reviews regarding the front desk woman. She is vile. I actually cannot believe the level of unprofessionalism and truly disgusting behavior that she represents being the face of this business and the fact that they are still open and operating (just because of the shortage of vets in the area.) I cannot believe she still is employed by anyone who takes pride in their career. I was told I would receive a call back after I asked to speak directly with my vet pertaining to my dog's health. I waited and waited- called back (4 weeks later) to check-in and she told me she refused to have anyone call me back because I called "all of [her] clients housewives", which is not what I said AT ALL and a complete twist of my words from a conversation I had with her in April. She was actually Yelling at me despite my calm voice and patience with her sad behavior. I cannot believe this woman is employed. She hung up on me despite my calm and collected demeanor. She told me I wasn't allowed to talk to anyone despite my repeated plea to speak to my dog's vet about his health issues he had checked in March. Disgusting woman to put her own pride and insecurities above the health of my animal. I will continue writing reviews until I receive a call back from my vet about my dog's health

Tried to take my dog there to get looked at and they refused to help me out. Very unprofessional and argued with me. I will NEVER take my animals there ever! Very rude! Dint go there. If your not there before 915 they will turn you away and tell you to go somewhere else.

I love this vet - he knows his stuff and is so generous and kind with my animals. Though the front desk staff is very rude, don't return calls, and I have been really put off by their handling of the pandemic. Only about a third of the staff wore masks, even at the height of cases in the fall/winter? I was actually asked on checking in “do you want the dr to wear a mask when you are in the room together?” What? Yes. Excuse me? Is that even legal?
