Commencement Bay Animal Hospital

Warm and friendly staff and Dr. Comer is compassionate and kind. We take all of our dogs here and have been going for years. Very lucky to have such a great vet in our community! Great prices, wonderful customer service and very knowledgeable. Clean facility and communicate great!

We have been patients of Dr. Comer for many years. She is a true pro. She treats our dogs and us with respect. When she is not sure she seeks help from specialists. She gives us good advice. Our dogs are all canine athletes and she takes a personal interest in what they do.

Very knowledgeable, especially when it comes to cancer. Dr. Cormier goes above and beyond researching different ways of treating a terminally ill cat. Though my cat is soon to lose her battle, the exceptional care and compassion given her was much appreciated. I highly recommend this place to take you animals.

Horrible place! I dropped off my cat to be spayed at 9am and was told to pick her up at 4:30pm. As I waited to pay I was completely ignored while the receptionist helped two other people that arrived AFTER I did. Rude, rude, rude! Not only had she NOT been worked on they told me that they would give me a discount on the price for my inconvenience. Nevertheless they did not. I should have stuck to MY veterinarian.

I took my little dog sparky to Commencement Bay because his eye was hurt. Dr. Comer was the 2^nd vet I had been to as the first didn’t really want to do anything but give me eye cream. Sparky is blind and his blood vessels had burst. Dr. Comer took it serious from the start. She examined him and decided he had to have the eye taken out.
I have never had a vet, without my help, take sparky’s blood or do much of anything. He gets scared and bites and a few vets have refused to treat him. Dr. Comer was excellent. She took his blood without a problem. The surgery went smoothly and he healed fine.
I am also impressed with her ability to be honest and helpful and understanding of me. She offered all my options and answered questions. She helped me apply for a loan and gave an accurate estimate of the charges which were good for the surgery. She took extra care to make sure Sparky wasn’t in pain prescribing pain medication at my first visit and plenty after. They also gave me a stuffed toy to rub my smell on so when he woke up he would smell me and then sent it home — great idea!
The office staff isexcellent. Her receptionist is great. She called to follow up during the first week post surgery and answered my questions and made time for me. Everyone in the office interacted with Sparky and gave excellent care.
I am an animal rescuer and asked them to put up a flyer. They went the extra mile and put me on their facebook page! I am grateful for all the help and great care I have received here. Since I rescue animals I have worked with many vets in 3 different states. Dr. Comer’s office is exceptional and I would highly recommend them.

The sign says Commencement Bay Animal Hospital, but whatever the name is, I really liked the clinic. It used to be an older vet clinic looked and smelled like the 70s, but they totally updated inside. Very clean, useful resources available, staff are friendly. I could tell staff care because they put cute X’mas stuff all over the window! And they have rain barrels. They support Prison Pet Partnership Program — there was a X’mas tree, and you could buy a small stocking for $ 1 to support the program. Unlike some vet clinics, they don’t look like a pet shop (selling a lot of pet products) or try to sell something extra.
Dr. Comer is an experienced doctor specializes in internal medicine. Although my cat is pretty healthy and didn’t need any extra care, she gave her a through exam — this is the forth vet I’ve tried and is the best. She even told me my cat has a scar on her retina, which was ever found!
The exam for my cat was $ 55, which isn’t bad.
I would recommend this clinic to anyone!
