BEST ANIMAL HOSPITAL- EXPERINCE EVER ! We took our little poodle here to be neutered-he was a stray-try as we did to find his home-no one stepped up to claim the little guy-he showed signs of abuse-we have slowly won his trust that we would protect him he would never be hit or hurt again-I was worried a bad experience would set him back & make him fearful again, plus he snores, I was worried being sedated might affect his breathing. Thats why prior to this, I read everything I could find on low cost animal clinics-and finally came across Yolinda Animal hospital-they had the best reviews I liked the reviews stating the hospital was clean and the people were very caring. When I pulled up, I felt relieved, they had a seperate entrance for dogs and cats, I thought that was thoughtful-not so much for our little guy, but our Border Collie tries to herd cats, and its usually a hassel while we wait to be seen- I was also impressed how clean it was and how quickly I was attended to, a female attendant came out to take Cowboy-he went happily in her arms-which isnt normally what he does-I had peace of mind that my dog felt safe and person was a genuine animal lover-I was left hands free to take care of business, I could have cried with relief-that my dog wasnt being dragged off scared and crying out for me. It just kept getting better and better from there. When we picked Cowboy up-he was alert & steady- in the past if I took a pet in to be sterilized or any type of surgery, when I picked them up they were still drugged and unsteady, I was again happily surprised, I was not looking forward to driving home with a drug confused pet, they absolutely care-about the animals and about helping the owners, by keeping the costs low- It keeps getting better-I have never owned a male dog or a small one-we have always had Border Collies, we have a ranch, so first experience with a small dog I was alittle paranoid, which didnt last long, as Yolinda Animals hospital emailed me several times following the surgery to ask how Cowboy was doing ! I dont get that kind of care from my own Dr ! the paperwork was all in order and given to us-very easy dealing with them. Without a doubt we will be taking our Border Collie Claire & Cowboy to this vet from now on- I have recommended this Hospital and will keep doing it-as we all want only the best for our pets-I cant say enough good things about this hospital and the staff- Thank You Yolinda Animal Hospital for the best postive experince we have ever had at a Animal Hospital hands down there is no way I would ever take my pets anywhere else Wish all animals hospitals were like yours-the world would be a better place PS: Cowboy shows no effects from his surgery-all is well

Ive been going here for years, with my dogs and cats as well as many "students" that stay with me for training. I recommend them to many clients, neighbors and friends and have even heard back from some saying they were also pleased and now go there regularly. As a dog trainer, people often ask me where to find a good vet, and this is always the one I tell them about. I was a little nervous when they doctors changed recently. I had already gone through many vets before finding this one, and did not want to see them go. But Ive been there a few times now with the new vets and was happy to see that, other than a few faces, nothing has changed! They are still very friendly and professional, always clean, there are many upgrades now, and they provide a great service without tacking on unnecessary add-ons and charges. I always know Im going to get exactly what I need, as well as a clear explanation as to why. I saw Dr. Olsen and Dr. Jordan and was very happy with both of them. I couldnt recommend them enough! UPDATE 5/4/10: Just had my new puppy, Pixel, spayed a little over a week ago. They did such a great job! She had some inexplicable diarrhea and vomiting a few days afterward. Dr. Olsen was able to see her the day I called with my concerns. After a few just-to-be-safe diagnostics and some meds to ease her tummy (all at a more than fair price and even an x-ray on the house), it turned out it was probably just her being a nervous wreck (shes the sensitive type). But Dr. Olsen eased my concerns and took the time to make sure she was ok. I even received an e-mail and a phone call just to check in on her. Yolinda Vet consistently goes above and beyond to show that they care about each of their patients and are only satisfied once they know theyve offered the best service. Having them around has been a blessing!

This was our first time to Yolinda Animal Hospital, and we came after being referred by a friend. We brought our 7-year-old Lab, Holly, because she was experiencing incontinence. The staff at YAH really took the time to talk to me and examine Holly thoroughly. They recommended some tests to make sure there were no bladder infections or kidney problems, and I was worried Id be looking at a $500 vet bill, but the pricing was very reasonable. The tests came back fine, so we discussed some medications that might help. This is where Dr. Olsen really went the extra mile for us. Our dog is allergic to soy, so not only did Dr. Olsen check into their regularly prescribed medication for me to check the ingredients, she also called the manufacturer of an all-natural bladder control supplement that I had Holly on. She talked to them at length about dosage (because Holly is 100 pounds so I was having to use more than what was recommended in order for it to be effective), and she also investigated each ingredient in the supplement to find out what it did. After doing all this, she called me back and we decided together that the most cost-effective and medically effective thing was to leave Holly on the supplement I was already using. There was no pressure to switch to a more expensive prescription medication. I so appreciated the care and time that Dr. Olsen and her staff put into Hollys treatment and I will definitely be making Yolinda Animal Hospital my regular vet.

I have had my animals with the Yolinda Animal Hospital for more than ten years. We presently have two cats and a (neurotic) Greyhound who are patients of this practice. I can not say enough positive things about Yolinda Animal Hospital. I have utilized their services for my animals from babies to euthanasia and I have always found them to be, without exception, caring and compassionate professionals who are very thorough about the treatment of the animals under their care. I also feel that Dr. Olsen and her staff really take the time to get to know my family and pets, which I really appreciate and they are extremely tolerant of my quirky animals. I also feel that they are very educated about the latest developments in veterinary medicine, so my animals are always in good hands. I never trust anyone, but I trust this practice 100%. My animals are my babies and they deserve the best in veterinary care!

My boxer Tito had a seizure at home and was in need of assistance quick. I drove into Yolinda Animal Hospital for the first time. The staff acted so quick I couldnt believe it. they had Tito inside giving him treatment immediately. It was so good to see a vet that cares so much about the animal in trouble. The Vets were so knowledgeable and had such compassion for Tito.....I was more than pleased. After a few hours Tito was ready to go home and rest after treatment. I have been looking for a new animal hospital and I have found one and so glad I did. Not only are they so compassionate Yolinda is very affordable. I have been trough my share of vets and I could say with out a doubt ......Yolinda is the best! And one of Titos favorite. Stellar work....and thank you so much.
