I am deeply indebted to All Paws Animal Hospital and Dr. Kerry for their amazing care of my cat this past July. On a Friday at midnight, my cat suffered a seizure and I rushed her to the emergency hospital where they gave her the best care they could. On Monday, All Paws made room for her even though they didnt have appointment openings. They were honest and realistic about her conditions; they gave me all my options and they didnt judge me for not being able to order all the most expensive tests. They were on call throughout the week to answer questions as my cats condition worsened but they never charged me for their time on the phone. By the end of that week my cat had lost control of her back legs, she wasnt really seeing, she wasnt eating, she was miserable, and she had ceased to be my beloved cat. I called All Paws in tears and they had me bring her in immediately. Even though Dr. Kerry wasnt on the clock till 9:30am, she came in early and put my cat down for me to end her suffering. Because of my cats miserable condition, Dr. Kerry decided that she needed to be tested for rabies - the test result was negative - but she could see how devastated I was so she offered to drive my cats body to the UofM campus for me to have the test done. She didnt charge me a cent to drive my dead cat across the city. As if that werent enough, a few weeks later I got a letter in the mail informing me that All Paws Animal Hospital had made a donation in the name of my cat to a foundation that trains companion animals. I was completely blown away by the thorough care they gave to my cat and the compassion and generosity they showed me and, on top of that, they even donated money in memory of my cat. I dont have words to convey the extent of my gratitude and loyalty to All Paws Animal Hospital. - Amy

Every single employee at All Paws is amazing to work with from the front desk, to the techs, to the vets. I found All Paws a few months after adopting my first dog, Bear. He was having back spasms and even I, a first-time dog owner, could tell he was in severe pain. I called the vet I had been seeing and they informed me it would be two weeks before they could get him in. I was desperate and did a Google search for vets nearby. Luckily, the first vet on my list was All Paws and they asked how soon I could get in. Dr. Ali spent so much time with Bear getting to the root of the problem. From there, we continued to visit All Paws and between my own pets (2 dogs, 2 cats) and my foster dogs, we visited frequently and had appointments with all of the vets on staff. Dr. Adriane tends to see my cats (one of which can be more than a handful at the vet) and Dr. Ilze tends to see my dogs and they celebrate victories with us (weight loss, infection free ears, etc.) as well as being straight with me with the proper steps I need to take to ensure all of my pets live a long, healthy, and happy life. Jo Ann and Kay at the front desk are always great to work with and make the scheduling process easy even with my time constraints. The office is also open extended hours making scheduling an appointment outside of your own work hours very convenient. I would recommend All Paws Animal to any pet owner!

This place was supposed to be inexpensive and a great place to take a cat. My best friend needed to get some blood work done on her cat, who sometimes can be a biter. She was sent home with gabapentin, also known as Neurontin, to give him the night before, so as to sedate him for his blood draw the next morning. Even with that, he could be heard yowling all the way into the lobby. After she got the test results, she decided to get a second opinion. She took him to VCA in Richfield, because they had a particular specialist who comes into that clinic. VCA staff were appalled at the fact that All Paws tried to sedate him first! VCA used what they call a "party hat" and drew his blood, and we never heard a peep from her cat. Later, she confronted All Paws. It turns out that they do have a "party hat." So, why the bleep didnt they use it?!? Neither one of us will ever go there after what happened. Even her regular vet, Oak Knoll, has never had any trouble drawing his blood.

I recently moved to the Twin Cities, so I shopped around before selecting All Paws for my pets care. Not only were they highly recommended by clients and other vets in the area, but their fees were at or below those of other vets. I brought my sick cat to see Dr. Ali. Everyone, from receptionist to vet techs Jessie (and others whose names I unfortunately dont remember) to Dr. Ali and her colleagues, was extremely compassionate, and very thorough; they spent a lot of time with my pet and me. They have been great with following through to inform me of test results and discuss further treatment options. Clearly, theirs is a labor of love, and it shows. I would absolutely recommend them.

I just moved up here and tried all paws animal hospital out after seeing some pretty decent reviews. I took My dog for a checkup and vaccines and I also wanted to fill my pups flea and heart worm medication. They told me they do not sell it so I asked if they had a problem authorizing 1800petmeds, she said "no problem at all!" Come time to order, a few weeks later she says they wont work with 1800petmeds because it is a "gray" market. What does that mean? Ive lived all over the country and never had a vet give me problems about it. If they wouldve told me up front, itd be different but I specifically asked them. I just want my dog to be happy and healthy and to live forever :)

Excellent care from the moment we first called to the follow-up visits, professional and caring staff, and wonderful doctors providing lots of TLC to their patients and their patients caregivers. The clinic was clean and cheerful and the rates were reasonable. I would highly recommend All Paws Animal Hospital to anyone who loves their pet.

My dog was sick and then got me right in. They were caring and compassionate, and the charges were reasonable. I will go back! If you are looking for a new vet, this is the place to go.
