Columbia River Veterinary Specialists

On Wed night Jan 21st our Vinny a 12yr old adorable long-haired chihuahua experienced a 2-4 min seizure or extreme heavy breathing episode. Because our normal vet CW Animal Hospital was closed...had to bring to what has to be the most inhospitable place with a Dr Valentyne that was the least compassionate and had we listened to the Dr. our amazing Vinny would have been euthanized! They did blood test, xrays and to what the Dr had guessed was wrong with him was a incurable brain tumor. The only true way to know would be a CT scan which they dont provide. We left him with them for 4 hours and when returned to hear she recommended euthanization...we said we want to see him before that is even considered. They brought him to us in what is the end of life goodbye death room. When he came

From triage to one of the hardest moments in my life, the entire staff made this awful life emergency more bearable for me. I'm so thankful they were able to see my beloved cat in the middle of the night and provided so much compassion and dignity for his last moments. They have lots of waiting room seating and a comfortable large room with a couch for last goodbyes. They are centrally located within Clark County and have ample parking. They also were very reasonably priced. They deserve more than 5 stars. It's taken me weeks to write this, but they most certainly deserve the shout-out. Thank you so much for handling everything the way you did and for providing the nose and paw prints like you did. What a beyond duty act of kindness that was that I will forever cherish.

Dr. Brown and her team were incredibly kind, gentle, and compassionate when caring for our kitty. Though we unexpectedly lost our girl, everyone at CRVS worked hard to ensure that her final days were not in pain, and treated her with genuine care. This made all the difference, as our Dottie did not suffer as she would have without their interventions, and she gained 24 wonderful hours in which we got to say goodbye pain-free. Further, the team was sensitive about the financial strain of emergency services, and helped us create a plan that helped our Dottie on the budget we could provide. We would trust CRVS again with our pets, and recommend them wholeheartedly.

We took our senior dog, Frankie in around 11 PM earlier this week because he was breathing very hard and erratically. From the initial phone call to the assistant (triage) to meeting with the Veterinarian, the service, compassion shown, and solid treatment plan was top notch. I truly can't recommend Columbia River Veterinary Specialists enough. Our dog is doing much better because of their knowledgeable intervention.

Really appreciate the customer service and expedited experience. I had with Columbia Rivers veterinary yesterday. Their team was super caring and got my dog in right away. I just want to give an extra shout out to the front desk and to the doctor that performed the surgery. They were really great with communication and keeping me updated, my dog was in really good hands. Which is the best feeling during an emergency!
