Preventive care

Sorry for putting big letters on the previous review. I deleted the review then restarted it because my English is ok, but I tried to repair languages repeatedly. I satisfied that veterinarians helped my dog to feel better❤️ thank you, Dr. Stuart and Dr. Winters. I tried to make the best review than before!! ❤️ yes still 5 stars from 2020 to 2023 (I looked at languages to learn how to make more positive ones)😊

Dr. Dalton has been our Vet for over 20 years. He is so wonderful with our cats. Most importantly when we have lost our companions, Dr. Dalton sends a hand written letter which is so touching. The letters console us and lets us know that we’ve made the right decision. He’s compassionate, kind, funny, intelligent, warm and he’s a great listener. His staff are beyond kind. I adore all of them. If you’re searching for a new Vet clinic, look no further. It’s an AMAZING place.

The Staff was nice and that’s about the only good thing I can say. They wouldn’t confirm our prescription for heart guard for our dog to be able to administer his meds on time which resulted in us now paying more due to him now getting worms. The walls and floors were not up to par with how much they love to overcharge. I got a years supply of heart guard for $126 from our new vet and wbl animal hospital was charging $60 a month for a dose I believe. This means I would pay in two months what I payed for a years worth of supply which is infuriating. Tests take longer than any other place I’ve been to for fecal samples and blood work. Our new vet got blood work done and fecal sample within 10 minutes which is how it’s always been for my prior dogs. I understand this is an animal hospital and you will pay more, but this is way over what you should pay. Save your money and get better faster care elsewhere. I heard horror stories as you always do with any establishment and I proceeded to go to wbl animal hospital giving them the benefit of the doubt, but as to my surprise it was everything I’ve been told. I may be picky but when I am spending higher amounts I expect a higher pride in the care of equipment, rooms, and providing the customer with nothing but the best for them and their pet. Super friendly staff, but take this review and use it with caution.

We have been using White Bear Animal Hospital for 3 pets & soon to be my 4th puppy. Dr. Dalton & his staff have always been there for us. They are a very important part of our family & our pets have always had the best care.

I love that they listened to me! You don't get that everywhere. We talked about my cats true needs, age, and what would work best for her. Best thing was, it didn't cost me an arm and a leg either. Reasonably priced.
