We have taken our dogs here for years and have always received excellent care. Currently we have 2 dogs with eye issues one of which lost an eye in an accident and requires special attention to protect her remaining eye. Recently they have responded to my urgent need for an apt. 2 times within minutes and worked her in to provide treatment within a few hours. Unbelievable responsiveness and we deeply appreciate the doctors and staff for that. These folks are the very best!!!

I can’t say enough good things about Eye Care for Animals. Dr. Cochrane is the most caring, detailed, thorough, trustworthy doctor I’ve ever met. He takes such excellent care of my dog Milo every visit and performed two perfect enucleation surgeries on him. You can tell he genuinely cares and it shows during every encounter. I also want to highlight how fantastic the front desk staff, and vet assistants are as well! Everyone is so kind and always makes sure to address any questions or concerns I have. I’m so appreciative that my 9 year old dog is well taken care of here and is getting puppy energy back after being in pain/discomfort for so long.Thank you all!!

Our kitten had an eye condition that appeared to be cured by the Emergency Hospital by the time he got to Eye Care. But when it flared up again, they reviewed the case, asked for pics, and treated it quickly. I am so grateful. They've been on top of it, between the 2 vets.

I called Eye Care for Animals office regarding a follow up appointment and I spoke Lauren this morning. I was in a panic because I lost my preplanned mode of transportation. She was so kind and she helped me reschedule and made it work out for me in a way that it was just amazing. She is the kindest, most professional, sweet and patient person and I would highly recommend this practice just for that reason alone. I will add a follow up review once I have the visit, but for today I really just wanted to thank Lauren and let everyone know what an amazing experience I had today.

Dr. Zack Cochrane is great. I brought my dog, Pepper, in about a year ago as I was told with DNA testing when she was a pup that she had the markers for PPL (Primary Lens Luxation) which had a high probably she would have it, usually setting in between 4 - 8 yrs. At 5 yrs I noticed a difference in how her eyes looked at night, they reflected differently, and I knew I needed to take her for a checkup to see if the PLL had started. My appt with Dr Cochrane went well. He was able to quickly confirm that her lenses had, in fact, started to slip, but were only at 40%. Unfortunately (fortunately?), he also was able tell that she also had glaucoma and her eye pressures were very high. Immediately he prescribed 2 types of eyedrops to help reduce the pressure in her eyes and to constrict her pupils to help keep the slipping lens in place behind the iris/pupil. He was very thorough in his exam and was up front and honest about the fact that my girl probably, at some point, would go blind and may even need to have her eye(s) removed. I was heartbroken but thankful for having a diagnosis and a route to take to help her. On a good note, she just had her 1-year checkup and her eye pressure has been stable and within a very healthy range (considering her diagnosis) and we are now on a "maintenance" schedule where she is stable enough to continue to have 6-month check-ups and remain on the same prescription going forward. The staff at Eye Care for Animals in Gilbert are all very caring, professional, and so gentle and patient with my girl. The front desk staff was quick to get me signed in and the vet assistant was so sweet and gentle. If there is any caveat, it is the pricing. BUT, this is a specialist and you're paying for their expertise in their field. My vet couldn't diagnose PLL in their office and didn't think to test for glaucoma... Both of these were instantly diagnosed, confirmed, and treated, and I am thankful for it. I will save the extra money to know my girl is getting the best care and, if/when the time comes for surgery, I will know she's in caring and capable hands.
