Lyndale Animal Hospital

Justin Bowling

I should have left a review a long time ago (we've been coming here for about 4 years now), but I am finally remembering to. This is the best animal hospital I have ever been to. Everyone is really kind and professional, and they are really good about helping you balance what your pet needs while also understanding that things can get expensive. They will only recommend what your pet actually needs. And I have to give huge props to the front desk people. There are two of them that work up there (actually, 3 now, I think), and they are amazing. They are always nice and pleasant to work with, and handle the large amount of work very well. It looks like it can get stressful up there (just by the nature of the job itself) with answering phones, taking in clients who are there, and getting all of the information out the people, but they handle it with grace and professionalism. They are absolutely stellar. I can not recommend this vet enough. They have taken extremely good care of our two cats.

Very average vet clinic. Also, if you're new to Minneapolis or looking for a new vet, this is not the place. I haven't been able to get a same-week appointment for years. Which is ridiculous. If I can't count on my animals going to their regular clinic for various illnesses that come up, then I'm going to find a new clinic. Which I did, and I'm very happy.

We’ve been going to Lyndale for almost 6 years, since our dog was just a puppy. We’ve been here for two CCL surgeries and with two adopted cats. The service is always wonderful! When our dog had both surgeries, staff were so attentive and very helpful and available for questions after. I’ve called front desk and gotten advice when when surprise illness or accidents come up. The vets have helped us problem solve when our dog became very anxious at a couple years old. They always take their time with us and are so kind. I’ve also appreciated that I can talk through pros/cons of procedures, medications, etc without feeling pressured into a decision. The front desk staff are all so friendly and lovely to chat with. And it always makes us feel so cared for when everyone from front desk folks to the vets remember our dog’s name, or ask after her when we’re bringing in one of our cats. While our cats are nervous at the vet (and staff always make the visit quick and easy for them!), I’m convinced our dog would gladly choose to live at this vet forever, she loves everyone so much and they are so good to her!

I have been bringing my 11 year old dog here since she was a puppy. Dr. Benson is so kind and caring, as are all of the staff. I always know and trust she will get the best care.

This practice indicated that my dog had a slight ACL tare, and it was nothing to worry about. I regret that we didn't worry about it because now, our dog has a full-blown ACL tare and is developing arthritis in her uninjured leg. We are devastated. I feel as though this practice didn't take the necessary steps to really dive deep to see how severe the injury was. My dog is scared when she's at the vet, but we should have sedated her, like I've done recently to get down to making a more accurate diagnosis. I feel as though they pushed our dog along for whatever reason. Pitbull mix ar 35lbs
