Report
Highly recommend Alpine Vet clinic. The staff are always friendly and do their best to meet the needs of all the animals located at Mutt Mansion Sanctuary. I am never disappointed with their service and care towards the animals and clients. To bad not all customers could be respectful to the staff. They work hard daily.

Dr. Rick was wonderful when we had to put our dog to sleep. We are new clients and the staff were great. They placed a blanket on the floor for him for comfort.

Very thankful that they were able to see us short notice right before the holidays (and during isolation no less!)

Our 10 year old dog, Ozzie has a massive tumour on his hind leg. Over spring break it opened up and was getting worst as the days went on. Dr. Helen Eddy called us, helped lessen our worry and showed… compassion. Yesterday we talked again and decided he needed surgery. Thanks to Dr. Elliot and team that fixed our boy. He is at home resting and getting all the attention he wants. Thanks to the whole team at Alpine!

I can not recommend this clinic enough. We have received amazing care and follow up from several of the vets. Beyond grateful to Dr. Ellingson for saving my lead dogs life. When one vet is seeing an animal, often times there are several vets working on the same animal behind the scenes.
