How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Kindness Family Pet Clinic

Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

Compare prescription pricing

Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.

Consider pet insurance

We drive from Hillsboro for Kindness! The team is SO wonderful and I always feel like they really take the time to know our pups. Our dogs have so much energy, and I never feel judged by the team for the dogs behavior or the concerns I have. Love love love Kindness!

My dog has seen every doctor, and every technician here, and we love every single one. Everyone has been so great to my dog and I. They are very clear about what they found during the exam and open to any and all questions. I always have a great experience in the phone when calling in to make an appointment. Every person in every position here has been wonderful. We highly recommend them if you are searching for veterinary care.

I spent thousands of dollars at this clinic getting bladder surgery for my dog that had been seeing Dr. Story for 11 years (since she was at Banfield). Then when my dog broke his leg, I called distressed asking for "kindness" and was told there are no appointments available. Next they blocked my prescription dog food. I tried to schedule a follow-up and was denied, told I was "too upset" last time I called. Clearly this place would rather hold a grudge than be "kind" or put animals first. The doctor has never spoken with me about my concerns, he (apparently Dr. Story's husband is the main doctor making these ridiculous decisions) heard from the receptionist that I "sounded upset" when I said I would have to find another vet" which is true, but again who wouldn't be upset & look for an alternative vet to make sure their dog didn't have to wait with a broken leg.

They take care of all my dogs. Two of the three (white ones) are vision and hearing impaired. They are so patient and take all the time the puppies need. They are prepared with plenty of snuggles and treats!

Our incredibly lovable, but not so bright, lab Bella has been going to Kindness since she was a puppy. And since she isn’t so bright we’ve had lots of opportunities to get to know pretty much all the staff and the Doctors at Kindness, and we love them all! From eating bees, getting stung, and finding out she is allergic, to eating her rope toy and needing to be observed for a bowel obstruction, to eating poisonous leaves off of trees, the staff at Kindness always treat Bella like she was one of their own furry family members, with lots of love, affection and caring.
