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

We love Dr. Freidman and the entire team at Cougar Mountain Vet! You can tell everyone here truly cares about the health of visiting pets, and love their flexibility in getting us in for scheduling purposes and last minute emergencies. This team is a true gem!

TL; DR: Kind, knowledgeable, friendly, compassionate, giant breeds, amazing vet! Going on 8+ years! With a newf and two aging cats we needed an amazing vet and that is what we found in Dr. Friedman. It's been nearly a year since we lost our cats and you learn a lot about people's character during those times, Dr. Friedman was comforting, understanding, and supportive through the process. I am so appreciative of his care. With our Newf, he is incredibly knowledgeable and gracious. I always appreciate his suggestions and recommendations (he's not pushy) and refer him whenever I can!

I cannot recommend this clinic and Dr. Friedman enough! When my partner and I moved to Sammamish and adopted a kitten, we were looking for a really good vet to get our kitten the best possible care. We got him neutered, vaccinated, and all that, and they took such great care of our cat and it seemed that both our cat and us, had a great experience and decided 3 years ago, this will be our new vet. A few days ago, our cat started getting extremely sick so I called, and they immediately setup an appointment for the next day. I was nervous because everytime I've taken pets to the vet, they're absolutely terrified of going and that can be a pain in itself, but our cat seemed to actually like going there. As soon as we walked in, he was calm and relaxed, and seemed very comfortable during the exam when he's normally terrified of other people and tries to run away from them - so I think that says something! Dr. Friedman was extremely helpful and quick with providing his opinions, treatment plan, and further options if he got worse. He was honest and I never once felt like anyone tried to upsell me on things I didn’t actually need. Unfortunately, our cat got worse and we had to take him to the animal ER. I called to update him and he was very sincere and provided me with information that helped the animal hospital treat our cat more efficiently and effectively, and had his x-rays emailed to me so I can provide them to the ER since it was shortly after closing. Unfortunately, we're still helping our cat get through this, but throughout this whole experience, Dr. Friedman has shown an immense amount of sincere compassion, knowledge, and has gone above and beyond, as well as helped in ways that other vets haven't and I greatly appreciate it as it has lessened the anxiety we've had during this. As long as they're still practicing and I'm in WA, we will always be going here - whether it be emergencies or wellness visits/vaccinations. With family pets in the past, it can be difficult to find a vet that REALLY cares about the pet and providing the best care possible, doesn't try to upsell you on foods or other things the pet doesn't actually need, or is really involved after the visit, but this place strives to do right for both the pets and the owners. If you're looking for a veterinarian, I cannot recommend this place more!

The staff was very helpful and friendly; the location is super easy to get to and really charming; the doctor was friendly and approachable; I could tell he was gentle and cared about my furry child. Even though I was a first-time patient they were willing to try to get me in same-day! Their prices are very reasonable. I am so happy to have found Cougar Mountain Vet and will definitely be going back! I highly recommend!

We love doctor F! We are fairly new to his practice but are so happy with both him and his staff. He calls to check in on your pets and is very fair with pricing. 4 year old update: Still so happy with Dr Friedman and his staff and he still calls to check up on them after surgeries or if they hadn't been feeling well. He's so great!
