Mountain View Veterinary Hospital

This was my first visit with my cat and I was very impressed with how super friendly they were.
Excellent service and no pressure to buy more services than I was there for. I’m on a budget so I really appreciated that. This is a great place to bring your furry friends.

Disappointed with Mountain View. Have used them for more than a few years for our two dogs. The vets are good. However, they are an up sell vet clinic always trying selling items and proceedures you likely don’t need for commission. They also charge more for meds like proin. $ 94 for a bottle that you can get for $ 44 including shipping. While I understand online may not have the same staff needs, it seems a bit much to charge $ 50 to hand someone a bottle off of the shelf. The location is convenient and facility is nice.

Mountain view is an awesome place and I trust them with my pets completely! The vet assistant Ami is amazing !! It’s worth the drive for me to take my pets here

PLEASE be careful if you use Mountain View Veterinary Hospital in Lacey, WA.
We took in our dog for routine vaccinations. Turns out he had some weight loss so we had routine blood work run. After getting the results the vet decided we should get an x-​ray which cost a little over $ 150.00 plus an ultrasound which would run $ 400.00. She also strongly pushed for a biopsy in which we were told could run an additional $ 400 up to $ 1000.00. Although she did expect it wouldn’t be a full $ 1000.
I felt uncomfortable explaining that we were not able to spend that amount of money considering treatment might cost a lot depending on diagnosis. The vet was rather pushy and I left feeling like a bad pet owner.
I then took my dog to another vet clinic right away who viewed Mountain View Vets x-​rays. She did NOT believe his problem was due to his liver. The 2^nd vet clinic immediately thought it was his in active heart failure. She was correct. Our dog needed to be put down roughly 3 weeks after being seen by Mountain View Vet.
I’ve since talked to a few pet store owners who told me they also had been in the same situation regarding completely inaccurate diagnoses as well as the pushiness to run expensive tests that were not the root cause of the problem.

Excellent caring vets here. They see established clients late into the evenings (met us there at 10 pm during a doggy crisis).
I started to write a long story about our recent experience & hit the wrong button (deleted it by mistake).
Very long story short — they took great care of my 12 yr old Doberman. Did everything possible to try to save her. They were very compassionate & supportive when we had to make the horrible decision to let her go peacefully.
Thank you Dr Richer, Dr Hook & Dr Snyder.

They saved my 8 year old shar pei, diagnosed her, treated her, gave me meds for home, and my puppy was doing better the next day. Hats off to staff, techs, and dr. Snyder. Love this place!
They are true animal lovers and treat the pets with a 5 star service, along with the consumers aka parents :)

On subsequent visits, I am NOT impressed. They kept throwing antibiotics at my cat, when it was pretty clear that was not the answer and poo-poo’d my suggesting that we should put her on pro-​biotics after all the antibiotics. I decided to go to another vet, and it turns out she never had an infection (I asked at the time why she didn’t have a fever!), it was just acid reflux. Yeah.

Best veterinary hospital in Olympia! The staff is wonderful and professional. We have taken all of our animals here for over a decade, their pricing is great especially considering the outstanding level of care. I feel confident recommending Mountain View to everyone! They are great people and will take the BEST care of your babies!

Mountain View Vet is the best place to take your dog or cat. I have been taking my cocker spaniel there for the past 2 and a half years. When Tucker walks in to the vet it is like he is a little VIP. He is ushered in quickly, the staff is very personable and they always have Tucker’s best interest in mind.
This place is definitely worth checking out. The only downside is the construction on Yelm at this time.
