Bolton Animal Hospital

My cat, Libra, has been peeing outside of his litter box so I decided to take him in for a check up. I was able to get a same day appointment here and I appreciated that. The doctor saw us right at 3pm which I appreciated. I don’t like having to wait with my cat locked in his carrier too long so I liked that they were prompt. The doctor was very kind and excellent with my cat. He really liked her. I felt like the price was fair for the services. I’d recommend Bolton to anyone looking for a clinic to take their pets.

We followed Dr. Horn from her previous clinic. She is a very caring person, it is obvious she really loves animals.
For some things we prefer alternative medicine over conventional veterinary practices. Dr. Horn works with us instead of trying to change our minds so our dog gets the best possible care.
We really appreciate the Bolton maintenance plan, it helps keep our little guy healthy.

We recently moved to NM and have been two other places looking for a vet. We have definitely found a home with Bolton. We took our dog in and she saw Dr. Keppers for a routine heart-​worm test. However, Dr. Keppers took the time to ask about any other issues our dog was having and talked to us at length about those. We ended up getting some other blood work done that she recommended. I felt that it was testing that really needed to be done rather than something extra for us to pay for. She was awesome, caring, and laid back. Our «Nervous Nell» was kept at ease and all was good.
Another plus — The reception area is roomy and comfortable unlike Blue Cross where you are crammed in with other dogs, cats, etc which adds to the pet’s stress of being at the vet. Also, at Bolton, the reception staff couldn’t have been nicer. You could tell they valued their customers because many people came and went as we were there and they were all greeted by name.
YAY — another thing crossed off our list as we get settled in to NM. Highly recommend if you are looking for a vet. I plan to use their grooming services in the future.

Worst experience at a vet to date. We loved Dr. Post, who treated us kindly and professionally. Now there’s a new vet who all but villified my husband for not pulling teeth, trimming nails (which were trimmed, he has very long quicks) nor neutering our dog despite us bringing in our dog for a possible strain. We will never return. Such a shame. We love our new vet who is kind, not judgmental, and highly recommended.

We’ve taken our pets to Bolton’s for years and have received good service. We board our dog, Don Pedro, there and he seems very happy to see everyone. I think he has a good time there from the way he acts. Everyone is friendly to us and the dog and they greet D. P. like a long lost friend.

I have both brought my cat here for boarding and my dog here for treatment. I was impressed by the cleanliness of the facility and the friendliness of the staff. These are clearly people who care about your animals. The boarding rates are very reasonable, and when I picked my cat up after a 5 day stay, she was clean and relaxed. I brought my 8 week old puppy in for emergency treatment and he was seen right away, and Dr. Bolton was considerate and very helpful in treating him. I highly recommend the hospital and the boarding service.

Five stars. This vet hospital is nothing short of excellent. Dr. Bolton and Dr. Keppers are both attentive vets and take their time in analyzing the situation with your pets.
You can tell they just care. They care about you and they care about your pets. I’ve never had a problem with getting a same day appointment either. Their prices (not that price matters when it comes to the fur babies) are competitively average for a vet visit. I think its around $ 40.
Their other staff is friendly and knowledgable and they do boarding here too. If you are looking for a vet in Albuquerque, come here!

My dog likes coming here, so that settles that. Also, very reasonable boarding rates and on the way to Sunport for drop offs on the way to catch a flight.

This is the only place in town I will take my cats. They are so friendly, helpful, and informative! While vet care is expensive, they accept carecredit — which is nice for those of us who have trouble paying large expenses, especially in an emergency. One of my cats got extremely ill and they were so professional and kind. When it seemed like he might not make it, they let me spend quality time with him in the back. He pulled through thanks to the awesome veterinary care at Bolton, but even when it seemed like he might not make it, they were hopeful, caring, and compassionate. They have a groomer on staff too, we are trying her services really soon and I will edit my review. She sounds great though. Overall in my past few years as a pet owner, I have come to appreciate the high quality of care these people give and will continue to take my pets here.

I take my Weimaraner, Daisy, to Bolton Animal Hospital and love how much they truly care about her as much as I do. I have taken her to a different «animal hospital» in town and had a not so great experiences when it came to their staff and pricing. But, Bolton Animal Hospital operates like a mom and pops vet clinic, animal hospital, and boarding kennel all in one awesome place. I take Daisy there for boarding when we go out of town for weeks at a time and I am never worried about her. She always walks in knowing she is going to get the best care while her momma is away and it puts me at ease.
This place is honest when they are talking about the care of my dog and I appreciate it because when you have an animal that’s spoiled, Bolton Animal Hospital tends to keep me in line when it comes to her needs.

I love my pets, I truly do. But it tires me to go in for a basic checkup and shots and leave having been persuaded to pay for bloodwork and other exams. Also, I do not care to receive frequent email reminders of services I could purchase.
If you have plenty of money to spend on health care for pets, Bolton is the place to go. I know their service is wonderful, and the facility is clean and well-​kept. I appreciate the care my cat received there. I simply wish I had not been gently pressured to spend more than I could afford on testing.

I love Bolton! I have taken my dog Sandwich here since we moved to the area and am thrilled by the friendly staff and great doctors. Carol and Deanna are great and I would recommend Bolton for any animal care needs! Sandwich thanks them, too.
