I have been with Alta Veterinary Hospital since BooBaby was just a puppy, almost nine years.. They have taken excellent care of him and are super patient with him. He is a mommy's boy and tries to jump in my arms during exams. they are always kind and caring with him. The best!!!!

My kids and I have had to put 2 cats down. One was only 2 years old and had sudden liver failure. The other was my daughters cat for 13 years - sinces she was 4 years old. Both times we took the cats to Alta. The staff was very compassionate and the doctor was very kind and allowed us all the time we needed. They have always been caring and supportive when we have taken in our animals. I have had no problems with them and I am very grateful to them for their compassion and sensitivity to our situation and to my kids.

Really confused on the couple of negative reviews, they didn't even give their names. I have done business with Alta since 1981 after moving from out of state and have always found them to be very professional and concerned about the pets well being. They may not be the least expensive but by far are not the most expensive. I've been willing to pay the higher price based on the service and care given my dogs and cat. I have found Lisa and the other techs to be very knowledgeable on care and advising estimated costing upfront. I have heard them give customers information on where to go for financial assistance when needed. They have helped me thru some tough times with my dogs having lost 4 over the last 30 years and they have been very compassionate each time. They are very involved in community items both with and without your pets. I've found that pricing for their food items are close to the large pet chains. Yes their kennels are not the "luxury" kennels but have always been clean and yes I pay to have more time with my dog when boarding. Check out some of the kennels that charge an arm and leg and then yes those items may be included. Sorry this is wordy - keep up the good work Alta. You will always be my Vet.

I've been a customer of Alta Vet since 2006 and I've never regretted taking my cats and dog to them. They treat my pets very well and have lived up to my expectations. For example, we adopted our dog through them. The adoption included a number of free dog training lessons and microchipping. I thought the price was very reasonable and I was really happy with the training. Another example was with one of our cats who had many, many health problems. He ultimately passed away, but Alta Vet was great in helping us make good (and tough) decisions and also properly treating him.

$$$$$ They are one of the most expensive vets in the valley. You do not get what you pay for - they take advantage of their clients who are in need of help for their pets. I was very inexperienced with what vets charge and so I had paid them THOUSANDS of dollars over the life of my dog. When a friend found out what I was paying, she was in complete disbelief at what Alta Vet charges. Their boarding facilities are no better than what the animals at the Humane Society have to live in and they charge extra if you want your dog let out more than 2 times a day. The vet techs are nice - the vets are uncaring. The owner's (Dr. Whitely) daughter who works there - I believe her name is Lisa? - is one of the most uncaring people I have ever dealt with. She is clearly there just to make money for her papa. Go somewhere else where it is about the care of your pet and not just the MONEY!!!
