Compassionate and helpful staff! by John J. at InsiderPages

I took my dog Willow to Alta Vista to be put down. I had been thinking it was time for several days when I came home from work on a Monday night and Willow was laying on the floor unable to walk, I knew it was time. I flipped through the phone book and noticed that Alta Vista was open until 10pm. I was unsure at first and wanted to wait until my regular vet opened the next morning but it was time. I know that I did not make the wrong decision and the staff was very compassionate and helped me greatly get through this tough time. When I decide to get a new dog Alta Vista will be my new vet!

Terrible treatment

by JulieWhitmore at Citysearch

Alta Vista used to be a great place to take your animals. It has become increasingly bad over the years and I have pulled all of my business from them. The technicians were abusive and added items to my bill that I declined. They turned a docile, loving but sick puppy into a monster through their mishandling. Obviously don't know how to handle animals well at all. Price have climbed and service has plummeted. Beware and avoid.

• Cons: Bad service, expensive.

Great Experience!

Amazing people! Everyone was VERY kind here, including Meghan and Angie! I've taken all my pets there, and every visit has consisted of timely visits, kind staff, and nothing but the animals best interest at hand! The prices are worth the service, and you get what you pay for! I believe the owner has done very well in his business and hiring on a fantastic team! Thank you!

• Pros: New building coming soon! Open til 10!
• Cons: Parking (not their fault)

BEWARE!!!

by starrhipple at Citysearch

Alta Vista has been the worst vet experience of my life. They are all about the all mighty dollar. So, if you care anything about the way you and your pet are treated I would recommend staying away from Alta Vista.

• Pros: NONE
• Cons: LONG WAITS, RUDE STAFF, ONLY CARE ABOUT THE $
