Our pup had an emergency where he unfortunately ate something he shouldn’t have. We were stressed and trying to call every emergency vet number we could find. They were all dead ends until we called Kenai Veterinary Hospital where Dr. Patrick answered and was super helpful and informative about our dog’s situation. We brought our dog in and got things taken care of ASAP. Dr. Patrick was very knowledgeable, compassionate, and we received great customer service! We highly recommend him!

We’ve gone to Kenai Veterinary Hospital for years. My parents have gone to Wisnewski for 20 years, and we’ve never gone to any other vet. My dog recently had a health issue and as she is a service dog my family and I were quickly looking to get her in and seen. Dr. Patrick was amazing, and took care of my dog while keeping us informed and reassured the entire time. He’s a great new addition to the team taking care of my dog! We’ve always been happy with KVH. 100% recommend!

I would like to thank and let everyone know because it was a Sunday we had two dogs that had porcupine quills and all the other shops were going to send us to anchorage. I want to let you all know I am very thankful to Patrick Krinke for his amazing help and his emotional experience we had for helping the community when there is no one here to help us. We tried several and they we’re telling us to go to anchorage and he was an amazing help for our dogs. Thank you so much for the care we received and you are amazing we will definitely be your vet to have.
