I'm befuddled others report such good experiences with this clinic since mine was so awful. They quoted me nearly $700 for what I later found out was a superficial ear hematoma. The list of suggested services were outrageously expensive. When I explained my concerns to the staff we came to an agreement that would bring treatment down to $260. However, after having come to this agreement, the vet, Mr. Mafara, came outside and complained that I "wasn't letting him do his job." He convinced me to opt in for $400 worth of services, which took less than 45 mins to perform.

All they did was puncture the wound, put in a tube, gave him a shot and put a cone around his head which I repeatedly explained I did not want. This was only the beginning of my troubles. Later, the tube came out when my cat shook his head. 2 weeks later, the hematoma was back. I made numerous attempts to talk with the staff about the lack of resolution.

On several occasions I was unable to reach their office due to their limited hours and temporarily unavailable answering machine. Days later, the vet in question returned the call after I was finally able to leave voicemails. I explained to my concerns to Mr. Mafara about the lack of resolution given the costs. We discussed the general culture of medicine and healthcare. Mr. Mafara took it upon himself to argue with me over the phone for 24 mins, 24 mins which would have been ample time to take another look at my cat. Turns out the hematoma will likely heal itself and that these procedures were unnecessary all along, something I was only able to find out by pressing the matter with him over the phone.

This was not the end. After our awful conversation Mr. Mafara took it upon himself send me a nasty letter essentially banning me from his clinic. I had no intention of returning anyway, since this clinic offers superfluous services without explaining proper context. As pet owners, most of us do not know medicine, it thus behooves medical experts to explain the parameters of situations before asking for outrageous amounts of money for unnecessary treatment.

I am distraught by the entitlement and aggression displayed by Mr. Mafara. The staff was fine, I had no problems discussing things with any of them. This vet however, instead of offering a reasonable resolution and valuable information, took advantage of my ignorance to charge me outrageous amounts of money. When I raised my concerns and asked for an amicable resolution, he banned me from his office.

This entire experience was petty, a giant waste of time and money. It takes me 3 days to make $400 and this vet charged me that for 45mins worth of services that weren't necessary in the first place. Just awful.

I love this clinic! They all took care of my boy toby, with such care and empathy. They really care about the fur babies, and this makes me so happy that when I bring him here, he's always getting the best care. Thank you, Anasazi team!

I'm extremely satisfied with the care and love the staff has given my two dogs. They care and it shows! I would strongly suggest if you are in need of a veterinary, give Anasazi a call.

Dr. L is the most informative vet I've ever had and the vet techs are the sweetest. I might pay a little higher than other vets but the care my dog receives is well worth the price.

I own Dogtopia of Gilbert and one of our boarding dogs wasn't feeling well today and it's a Saturday. He sees Dr. Langeneckert. Even though they were closing for the day, she stayed for me to bring him in and went above and beyond to give him the best care. She was in constant contact with his mom and well as me giving updates. I'm so impressed!

Anasazi Animal Clinic has one of the best Veterinarians in Arizona working there! Both doctor's are amazing - I have been taking my pets to Dr. Sharon Langeneckert for over 20 years (she used to work at University Vet Hospital in Tempe, AZ back in the early 2000s). She is the most compassionate doctor/Vet I have ever known and she has years and years of experience with treating sick animals.

I highly recommend her high quality of care, compassion, knowledge and experience if your pet should get sick, I would highly recommend taking them to Anasazi! I highly recommend Dr. L (as everyone including her staff calls her) and her partner and her entire staff are pro's and extremely compassionate and caring! They are the best Arizona has to offer with years & years of experience! I would not trust my pets with any other Vet here in the valley, other than Dr. L. She is hands down the best Vet in Arizona!

My wife and I cannot say enough about this clinic, and Dr. Sharon Langeneckert. We have been bringing our dog Toby to them for the last 11 years, and they've always been wonderful. The doctors and staff are kind, caring, and compassionate. The clinic is responsive, and I've even had Dr. Langeneckert call me on her off days. That's service. These folks truly care about our Toby, and it shows.

Do not hesitate to call them for all your pets needs. Lastly, I always want folks to know my wife and I do not know any of the staff there. We're just normal people who live in Chandler, but felt the folks at Anasazi needed to be recognized for their amazing service.

Note: Anazazi Animal hospital is on 425 W Guadalupe / Neeley ( Between Gilbert and Cooper). GOOGLE map was sending me to Guadalupe / Country club. 2-2-2021 - Brought our cat (Raelin almost 3yrs old) to this vet. Dr. Sharon L was kind and honest about her health especially her teeth which was the reason I brought her for a second opinion. According to Dr. Sharon L (Anazazi clinic) - on a scale of 1-4. Raelin's tartar build up is about 1 and therefore no need to worry. Oasis Animal hospital's review on Raelin was her teeth was in bad shape and needed cleaning.

I told the technician @ Oasis clinic that wasn't discussed with the vet but why was it in her report. She couldn't give me an answer. Never going back to OASIS Animal hospital again which is much closer to my home because this is a 2nd time I brought my cat here but was not happy with the feedback and care she got.

Anasazi had treated all my pets for years. I respected their diagnosis and treatment advise on everything from ear surgery, to dental work, and even euthanasia of pet that they determined to have an inoperable tumor. A friend who had adopted a cat from me years ago recently died and her family brought the cat back to me. After a few days I could see he was in pain trying to eat.

When he was showing signs of dehydration, I took him to an emergency facility with 24 hour service. They did lab work and x-rays but didn't diagnose anything fatal and advised I take him to someone to review their diagnosis and get the dental work. I called Anasazi. They wouldn't schedule an appointment even with openings a day or 2 later, and wouldn't review the emergency room's charts. Basically, they refused to help at all.

Other places I called weren't accepting new patients or didn't have available openings for 3 to 4 weeks. I got to spend Christmas watching a good cat dying of starvation for what I believe is a tooth ache. I'm happy for those that find "care" at Anasazi. My recent contact with them was very disappointing.

Have been bringing my kitty in whose been sick and not feeling good. I've brought my cat Gus there three times this week and both doctors have been great at trying to help us figure out what's wrong and provide supportive care for him. All the receptionist and vet techs that I've spoken to have been really nice. 10/10 recommend!

I brought my 6 month old Doberman to get some shots and due to covid I couldn't come inside but the doctor actually called me to discuss things about my baby over the phone! She was very informative and I feel my puppy was in good hands. My prior vet experience was at banfield and they're clearly not too dedicated to making the dog comfortable. this vet was very good, 10/10 I'll recommend them and continue to bring my baby here too!

I can't say enough about Dr. Mafara. Our golden had been misdiagnosed for over a year by our previous vet and continued to get worse. Anasazi made room on the schedule for our sweet boy to be seen. Now in the time of Covid19, we weren't able to go in to the clinic but the staff that came out to our car to pick up our baby were sweet. Dr. Mafara communicated with us at every step and has continued to call and check up on our sweet guy. Recovery is going to be a while but we are happy to be working with Dr Mafara and Anasazi on his care.

We switched to Anasazi from another local vet in the East Valley and couldn't be happier. The staff at this clinic are so kinda and genuinely act like they care about our puppy. Our lab had gotten pretty sick with an unknown cause then quickly got sick again with kennel cough. Both times we were able to get him in quickly. Then, while at the appointment the vet was very thorough and caring. We liked all technicians and front office staff. The vet even called us personally a few times checking on him to make sure he was okay!

Thankful for the kind staff and care for my cat Lynx! They did an amazing job on his two surgeries and from the first call to the receptionist Brooklyn to taking my cat home I was pleased! Friendly helpful staff they are knowledgeable and caring is harder to come by these days. I have finally found my vet for my beloved animals!

Very caring clinic. Took my new kitten there for spay, declaw and shots. They did a wonderful job without any complications and my kitten is so happy. They were very caring and extremely communicative. Even the Vet came out and talked to me. Will go there again in a heartbeat!

This is a review for the laser declaw. The laser declaw is a good price, however, I am not convinced that it is better than standard declawing. When we brought our cat home, she did not have bandages, which is nice, however, she was limping and had bleeding from her paws almost immediately. We had to take her to have this fixed the same day. So we took her to a vet that is in our neighborhood.

He checked her records and said that the antibiotic Anasazi gave her was for the surgery only. If her wounds were to re-open, she might get an infection. The neighborhood vet gave her a antibiotic that lasted for two weeks. About a week later, one of her paws opened again. She hadn't been doing any vigorous activity during this time. Overall, I was very confused about why laser declawing was marketed as preferential and is pricier.

You took care of my cat in an emergency situation. As a new patient, you saw me the same day that I called and at very reasonable prices. The staff is incredibly caring and empathetic. Dr. Lee is very knowledgeable and comforting. I'll be calling in tomorrow to schedule our follow up but I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'd be lost without that darn cat.

This place is very expensive and that's my only complaint. They call a lot (and I don't mean follow ups) trying to "remind" you to come in for services you may or may not need wanting to keep that business coming in the door. If money is no object then this is your place. You'll of course receive good care here. I've taken cats here on and off over the last 10 years or so and they always receive what they need. I'm confident in their care. It's always been a good experience. It's just the money. Getting hit with that caught living in Gilbert tax isn't fun. Businesses think everyone in Gilbert is well off I guess.

Just this month I wanted to get a battery of shots for a cat and their price was over $200. The Spay and Neuter chain in the valley only charged me $61 for the exact same shots. You can't make appointments for the shots there and you'll have to stand in a line if you don't get there early, but look at that savings. Enough said. There are other options just blocks away.

My favorite animal clinic in the east valley. They treated my loved one, Fernando, like one of their own animals. Very nice staff and the diagnosis of what was going on with my dog was very thorough. I just got another family member, Bella, and wont be taking her to any other place, and neither should you if you care for your pets!

Such a kind animal clinic! The exam rooms are huge and clean. The staff are very friendly. The doctors are super knowledgeable, down-to-earth, and not pushy like other vets I have been to. I highly, highly recommend this location! We will be returning!

I had a great experience here recently with my dog, Zona. Non-stop itching and scratching sent me to them after seven days of misery and sleepless nights. My dog has some aggressive behavior and does not do well at places like the Vet. Anasazi was very friendly upon my arrival and got me right into a private room, the veterinarian was very knowledgeable and they were not pushy at all when it came to costs or services recommended. Glad I have found such a great vet close to my home. I will be back!

Worst experience ever, I wouldn't take another one of my pets here if they were the last animal clinic in the state! Charged us nearly $4000.00 and misdiagnosed our Princess with pancreatitis and had her on 7 or 8 different meds and her condition only got worse over the next month. So she was finally sent for an ultrasound scan which I originally asked to have done when I first brought Princess in to Anasazi and they refused my request and denied the ultrasound because it wasn't part of the standard procedure, but in vet terms that just meant that they wanted to rack up the bill first which they did for a sum of almost $4000.00 and it turned out that after the ultrasound we needed to see a specialist who then broke the news in less than 24hrs that Princess has only been suffering all this time and it was necessary to end her pain & suffering by putting her to sleep since Anasazi misdiagnosed her condition for almost 2 months while bleeding our finances not too mention all the wrong meds they prescribed for her that just added to her suffering we had less than a few hours to say good bye to our beloved Princess and to think that we had been charged nearly $4000.00 so our Princess could suffer her last 2 months alive and then we had to come up with another almost $2000.00 from the specialist just to get her actual correct diagnosis which wasn't pancreatitis but in stead it was a terminal lymphoma cancer of her liver and lower intestine.

It was also brought to our attention that Anasazi should have known from the start what Princess's condition truly was but there was no money to be made if they came right out and told us right from the start! Then after we contacted care credit about what had happened, it was investigated and Anasazi's attorney immediately started the whole denial process.

What a joke of an animal clinic Anasazi turned out to be, careless, thoughtless, heartless, and scandaless, they are a business when it comes down to it and your animals best interest will only be considered by the amount of $$$$$ their condition will cost you! YOU BEEN WARNED STAY CLEAR OF ANASAZI ANIMAL CLINIC.

Very very pleased with this vet! We've been to many over the years and all seem to have hidden or unnecessary costs. Last week our dog ate nine rocks (first time in 9 years) and Dr. Lee was fantastic with us. Not only did she give us our options, but after we decided on surgery for the last rock that would not pass, she called and checked in daily and ensured our dog was recovering well. I would give them an A+ for customer service and recommend them to friends and family.

Very friendly staff, professional and very fair pricing when compared to low cost spay and neuter clinic pricing. It's worth a few extra dollars to me to make sure my pets have the best care!

Had a great experience here with Dr. Lee she was very knowledgable and provided some great advice for our dog. My dog has terrible allergies and so far by using the treatment she recommended he has been better than ever! We have been looking to establish our dog with a new vet and we think we have found one!

I'm the first to admit that I'm pretty picky with my vet for my four dogs. We moved here about a year ago and have been to 5-6 different vets and we have finally found a home in Anasazi! Excellent staff, services, everything!

This clinic referred me to Dr. Alan Mafara for an orthopedic procedure and while very nice, he is NOT an orthopedic specialist and not certified in that field. Do your research and not just online as the advertising is misleading! The staff is very friendly and you can tell they genuinely care, and i'm sure they are great for vaccinations and euthanasia, but I would HIGHLY recommend you stay away for surgical procedures of that nature with this particular doctor.

My mini daschund has severe periodontal disease and Dr. Evans has been wonderful in helping relieve Frodo's pain thus making a happy and healthy 11 yr old pooch! I saw her for the first time in Jan. 2014 when visiting AZ. They have an state-of-the-art dental equipment, like their X-ray machine which found left behind chips of tooth imbedded in his gums from a surgery probably in early 2013.

She also had to pull several more teeth because they were infected so badly. Today I saw Dr. Ruiz who helped me go with a more conservative route, since it hasn't been that long since his deep dental treatment. We'll see if we can control Frodo's new infection. If it doesn't work we will have to do an anesthetic deep dental cleaning again to try and save his canine teeth. It's pretty much all he has left after years of pulling teeth : The staff is very friendly and knowledgable, the office is clean and they have the coolest cats walking around.

One kitty actually walked up to my dog and rubbed its head against my dogs head - I have never see that before and I am glad my dog is friendly - lol It's a great place to go!

I went in to have my GF's pomeranian's teeth looked at as they were smelly and all jacked up. We pretty much wanted to know how much it would cost just to have them all pulled as we felt they were affecting his breathing too. Their quoted price was way more than other places. So we ended up not going with them. They were nice and the initial exam was free, so that was good.
