Our dogs and cat have always received amazing care from all the staff, but I want to especially say thank you to Dr. Mike Price and all the staff that looked after Havoc in his last few weeks. Your compassion has not gone unnoticed. We are extremely grateful for all the exceptional care he received.

I had to bring my cat in for an emergency appointment this past Saturday morning. The vet was thorough in her assessment of my pet, and quickly found out her suspected diagnosis, which turned out to be untreatable and terminal leaving me with no other options other than to put him down as the best and most humane. The vet and her staff were very… kind and understanding in letting me take the time to make that decision myself, to say goodbye to my pet, and to stay with him while she did what she had to. They made an completely horrible moment more bearable by their compassion and kindness

Clearwater vet has the best vets and staff! They are very welcoming, accommodating and offer outstanding service, making it worth an hour drive for us to see the vet. We are continuously impressed with the service, cleanliness and support as new dog owners. Very reasonable prices, you would expect to pay much more for this level of service! Also love that they are open on Saturdays.
