Awesome place! The hospital is bright, clean, decorated in a classy way - but most important, the staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. The doctor we met was wonderful, great with the humans and superb with the pets. I am so happy we found this vet hospital! The sweet little love bird in the waiting area is fun, too.
I have a Jackson's chameleon with a lip infection. It is not easy to find a vet who handles reptiles and is available. I arrived early in the morning and my chameleon was checked out and treated within an hour - without an appointment. Now, that's what I call excellent service! Dr. Snead knew what he was doing and the front staff was friendly and helpful. Thank you Camino Al Norte Animal Hospital.
I loved the Dr Varela, but the last time I took my dog in, the place had gone down hill. They are not as friendly as they were with Dr Varela. . . Sometimes change isn't all that good. 😔
REVISED 4/13/14- I have recently become very dissatisfied with this clinic. Dr. Varela left (moved out of state) a year ago, and it has all been down hill ever since. I have taken my dogs to see every vet that is there and have had unsatisfactory experiences with all of them. I will say that Dr. Snead ( the practice manager) is pretty good and helpful, but the reality is that Dr. Snead cannot be there every day. I feel like the vets are only interested in jacking up your bill. And I am not someone who blinks an eye at spending what is needed for my dog's care. I took one of my dogs in today for an ear infection. We saw Dr. H because Snead was off today. Dr. H took my dog from the exam room so she could "take a look" in his ear. I left w/ a $125 bill because apparently "taking a look" in the ear translates to taking a swab $35, cleaning the ear (which i had already done)$15, and giving me "ear drops" that they make in their office $20. Today was the last straw. I'll take my 5 dogs and my business elsewhere. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ THE BEST VET IN LAS VEGAS!!!!!! I have had animals all my life and I currently have 5 dogs, so I am a frequent customer of Camino Al Norte Animal Hospital. They are amazing! I have lived in Vegas for 25 years and had gone through a number of vets that just did not measure up. My search is over! Dr. Varela and his staff are really amazing! Dr. Varela is very thorough and caring. You can tell he truly cares about animals. He will spend as much time with you as you need and will discuss all the options with you. In fact there have been times that I have had to wait in an exam room for a bit, but I know it's only because he giving someone else the amazing service and advice that he is going to give to me when it's my turn. He never does unnecessary testing or procedures. If he doesn't feel a test is necessary he'll just tell you. He regularly tells me what he would do if this were his dog, which I find comforting and helpful. They are open 7 days a week, and they have an after hours emergency service. Their prices are the best in town. I am not a fan of boarding my pets, or really leaving them at the vet for any length of time. However, the dogs have had to stay for testing/observation at different times, and I know Dr. Varela and his staff take care of my pets like their own. And they never get annoyed when I call to check on my pet multiple times. The point is, if you are going to any other vet, you and your pet are missing out! I would HIGHLY recommend Camino Al Norte Animal Hospital to ANYONE in Las Vegas. If it's not near you, I promise it's worth the trip
Waited for well over an hour while countless others were seen and left even before I saw a dr. Had to call front desk from in the exam room to find out how much longer to see the vet. She replied " another half hour or so". This place sucks. Will not be bringing my dogs back here. On a side note the vet was very nice and pleasant even though I'm sure I was a pain in the but after having to wait so long.
