We have been going to Mattawan Animal Hospital since I moved here in the 1990's. The staff is really awesome. They are thorough, caring and have been really supportive throughout the lives of all our beloved pets (even our guinnea pig). We completely trust them, feel fortunate that our dogs are in their care, and wouldn't go anywhere else!

I have been with Mattawan Animal Hospital for well over 10 years. There staff is absolutely amazing. We just recently had to have our 13 year old dog euthanized and they were so warm and caring spent well over an hour with us and took such good care of her. There is no other place or people I would trust with my Furbabies.

My little dog was attacked by a big dog, and Mattawan was the only place open that would take him in. They did the surgery immediately, and saved his eye. Then AFTER saving him, we set up a payment plan that was very reasonable, to pay them for the surgery. When I lived in Mattawan, they were my pet doctors, and if I ever have any emergencies when I am close to there, they will be my 1st stop, even though my parents have another vet less then a mile away. My baby is happy, healthy, and as soon as the fur grows back that they had to shave, he will be 100% again.

Mattawan Animal Hospital have been my animals care takers for the past 20 years and I would NEVER consider going anywhere else!! They are all very caring and loving with my animals and with the family when the occasion unfortunately arose to send one of our 4-legged kids across the Rainbow bridge. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a vet.
