Alpine View Veterinary Clinic

Have been very happy with the service and professionalism. The vets like dogs and that is important to me. Have been to some vets that are not comfortable around large dogs and I can tell (sure my dogs know too!) Prices are reasonable (for the Seattle area). They are not trying to gouge you. I don’t mind paying for petcare and understand it can be expensive but some places appear to really push trying to charge you as much as possible.

They diagnosed my dog with cancer.
In our opinion charged way too much for 6 months of Prednisone–
Then, refused to get him in without an appointment the day he needed to be put down. Said «Sorry. we’re very busy and you’ll need an appointment. There are none available today?»
I guess he should have suffered more in their opinion.
Now, they won’t take us off their stupid «Have your dogs teeth cleaned» cheap spam postcards with his name although we’ve left more than one message. Hello???
In our opinion, they suck, and we now go to a new vet near downtown Monroe who handled it with love and care and suggest other people who care find a better vet.
Figure it out, Alpine View. You can’t clean his teeth for $ 300.00 because he’s dead so save the $.35 postage please.

The doctors, vet techs, ladies at the front desk & the office manager at this facility really, really do care about your pets. Everyone is kind and professional. I would highly recommend this vet clinic.

I was sad to hear after waiting for a few weeks that the ashes from our family dog was dump into some lake with no follow up call to make sure if any changes were made from the dogs owner. The way the staff handled the call and making my wife and step son feel after call. If anyone knows a good pet lawyer… please post the information.

Having had so many beloved dogs in our 30 + years in Snohomish, we of course had the need for a very good Animal Clinic. We have been so relieved to have found Alpine Veterinary Clinic and have gone to them for the past 10 years. I am so very grateful for the excellent care our dogs have had, and then after 10 years we had an aging fleet of dogs :(, and Alpine’s kindness, treatment, and going the extra mile to help us with our aging dogs has been amazing. Our last little pal had several recent struggles and Dr. Schultz went above and beyond reasonable expections to help. I am so very grateful for her expertise and time with my little dog, I thank her so much. Last year with our dogs, Dr. Schultz and the staff, especially Cassandra, did so much to help us. I almost cannot belive how much Dr. Schultz and Cassandra did for us, it meant the world. All of the doctors and staff are kind, caring, incredibly knowledgeable and I would never go to another vet home. We now have 2 more rescued dogs and will continue to trust Alpine with them, it is a trust that they well deserve. I also want to thank Dr. Murphy for taking 28 minutes out of his booked Saturday to explain what was going on with my little dog and answering all of my questions. All of the Doctors are great. Thank you also to Dr. Demaris. Also, we are not in any way connected as family or friends, this is a completely honest and objective review from my heart!

Until recently this was our vet… Stopped in to get some worm medication for one of our cats… They tried to gouge an office visit from us and would not sell us the medicine… Went to another vet in Monroe, in and out in 5 minuets with the worm medication… Thank you to our new vet, Cascade… Just saying

I’ve had dogs all of my life, and have had experience with many vet clinics. Alpine View is by far the best clinic, with the best people.
Dr. Schultz is an incredible, caring, responsible, professional and thorough doctor. She goes above and beyond what I would expect any doctor to do. Dr. Schultz takes time to listen, to ask questions, to explain, and to discuss the options. My dog has struggled with health issues, and I have felt so fortunate to have him in Dr. Schutlz’s care. Beyond her excellent skills and care, Dr. Shultz is empathetic and kind, something which goes a long way when dealing with the stress of an ill (what is to me) member of the family.
The staff at Alpine is also wonderful. They are always friendly, and helpful. I’ve called what, at times, has been probably too frequent, and they have always been patient, courteous, and helpful.
I agree with another commentator that the clinic is exceptionally nice and clean as well.
I had probably one of the toughest experiences of putting another dog down at Alpine. It was a very difficult decision, and it was after years and years and years of excellent care provided to him by Alpine View. They were so kind and compassionate during and after that process; it meant a lot to our family.
I also appreciate that Alpine View’s costs are reasonable. I have always felt that they have charged a fair amount and that they have never done unnecessary or unreasonable services.
I am very grateful to Alpine View. Dr. Schultz has been a true blessing in what has been a difficult struggle with my dog’s health. The staff has been amazing as well.
Most importantly, my dog is always excited to go into Alpine View and even will cry when Dr. Schultz leaves the room – always a good sign.

Possibly the finest vet I’ve ever been to. The facilities are exceptionally nice and clean. From the front office staff, to the techs and doctors – all are very professional, friendly and caring. The vets take time to listen and are very thorough. One of the things I really appreciate about this practice is that they give you a comprehensive estimate for services, showing each service line by line. They give you a best case scenario along with worst case, and the owner has the option of deleting some services if desired. The vets take the time to call back with a thorough explanation of what’s going on, then give you options for treatment.
Inevitably with older pets, sometimes the best option is euthanasia, and the staff are all very caring and supportive for this very emotional time. When I needed to put down my Boo kitty because of inoperable cancer, the staff sent me a lovely card with his paw print and a tuft of his fur. Very thoughtful. The staff also doesn’t hesitate to recommend another vet if they feel that the best treatment might be outside of their expertise, for example, acupuncture for my dog, and thyroid radiation for my cat.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this vet to anyone.

Have been taking my 2 cats to Alpine View since I moved to Monroe over 2 years ago. The staff is always very friendly, the doctors take their time to discuss the issues, and so far they’ve been able to squeeze me in for emergency appointments.
One of my cats had a several bladder infection and had become completely blocked. (I knew he was in pain, but thought he might have a bowel obstruction). Dr Murphy provided stellar care — listening to my concerns and recommending x-​rays and additional tests that allowed for a quick and correct diagnosis and treatment that undoubtedly saved my cat’s life. His follow-​up and subsequent care was excellent.
My other cat has also had some issues (they’re both getting old), and based on original appointment availability has been seeing Dr Creslin-​Schultz, who has also provided excellent care. We’re still trying to determine if this cat is just neurotic or has some physical condition, but I don’t feel that Dr Creslin-​Schultz has left any avenues unexplored.
Alpine View feels a bit expensive, but my prior vet was in Idaho and I didn’t have as much need for their services. Overally I feel that my cats are receiving quality care. I originally went to Alpine View because they were only a few blocks away from my house, but my cats will continue to be patients for a long time to come.

I take both my cats here for their veterinary care and Alpine View has been great — from taking care of a kitty bladder problems to check ups and boarding, they have been caring and professional.
There is one thing that impressed me about them recently, and that was during the time I sent my cats to their kitty motel for a week while on vacation. One cat loves people and is Mr. Curious George in an orange coat, while the other is much more shy and reserved, and really doesn’t open up for any one but me. When we returned from vacation and picked the cats up, I learned that due to the extra space they happened to have available at the time, the cats had their very own room, not cages, were visited and played with several times a day, and pretty much lived in the lap of luxury while we were gone. A few days later I got 2 cards from Alpine View Vets. When I opened them I was surprised to see photo cards with pics of my kitties — one for each — with a hand written thank you note, and a personal note about each cat and how they enjoyed their stay. The notes let me know that they really did pay attention to my cats because they got it right on the personality of each cat. The cards still sit on my desk — even tho one now has a chewed corner from a cat who may have recognized herself in the photo!
Even tho Alpine View is not the closest vet to my house, I continue to go there and will for as long as I have pets.
