Coralville Animal Hospital

Moving here from out of state, finding the right vet was really important to me. A lot of locals born and raised in the area recommended this place, and I’m so glad I listened — they’re conveniently located, easy to find, and truly awesome. I’ve seen mostly positive reviews and just a couple that weren’t great. Honestly, don’t let those sway you!! (If you read closer, it’s usually because someone couldn’t be seen the same day — but the team actually goes above and beyond by giving a list of other clinics that could do immediate asap on the spots appointments) They’re doing their absolute best to help, and that says a lot. They answered my questions gave me itemized price lists, answered all sorts of random questions pertinent to my pets well being with ease, love and respect! My own exp

Such caring and sweet services we have gotten so far for our furry babies, Cooper and Rigby. They sincerely care about animals as if they were their own family. When we suddenly had to put down our cat, they went out of their ways to accommodate what was best for him. We can't thank them enough for the kindness and professionalism they showed us all along. We will continue to be the loyal customer of theirs for Rigby and for our future fur babies.

I was really disappointed with Coralville Animal Hospital. The staff felt rushed and not very compassionate, and the policies are super rigid they wouldn’t even see a sick pet because my friend was a few minutes late. Prices are higher since the changed in ownership, and it feels more about money than truly caring for animals. A vet hospital should be about love for animals not a cash grab and bad policies.

I have been going to the coralville pet clinic for 19 years. I think it changed hands a couple of times, but the last few visits have been different. I used to go at least once a year for all vaccines and general healthcare for my dog and always had a vet during the appointment and it was a great experience, great vets, and longer operating hours.This year on my annual visit my dog only needed two shots, so when they came over to take the dog, it was the first time I wasn't allowed go in with him. I said I would like to talk to the doctor and they said this isn’t a doctor visit this is a tech visit, techs give the shots and that if I want to speak to the vet, I would need to make a consultation appointment. First time I didn't get a vet. The other item is techs upselling vaccines. More t

Dr. Pelzer is thorough, in tune to petowner circumstances, takes time to answer any questions and was gentle with my new baby. I brought my new kitten to her for initial eval & look forward to switching the rest of my furbabies over! Her staff is also accommodating and friendly. Clean office without the stinky "vet office smell." (Maybe that could be a rural thing as I'm from the other corner of the state.) I was also surprised to receive a thank you post card in the mail. Sometimes an extra touch like that is nice when everyone else seems so busy & self absorbed. I thought it was a classy act.
