I can't recommend this pet hospital enough. We've been taking our two dogs here for years for wellness visits and have received the best care at every appointment. Recently we had an incident where one of our dogs consumed a large amount of chocolate and other snacks, resulting in the need for more specialized and urgent care. Every person we worked with-from the ladies answering the phone, the assistants, and the vet-were so incredibly kind and thorough and always gave us numerous options (in varying price ranges) to help us make the best decisions possible. This has re-confirmed for our family how wonderful this place is and that our dogs are truly getting the best care.

Make sure you don't visit Mankato with your pets. If they were to have an emergency they will not be treated here. Don't know how one is to be expected to take their pet to their vet when their vet is in another town. My dog nearly died while I drove her to the hometown vet! - stars

They were so friendly and knowledgeable! Everything was explained to us and we were given options as to the level of treatment we wanted for our pet

The staff at RHPCH is always patient and caring. I was able to get my dog, Jesse, in on short notice because he was displaying some alarming symptoms. While I did have to wait for awhile, I didn't mind, because all personnel were attentive and personable. Dr. Holly Rudolf took a LOT of time going over Jesse's blood work results with me, and went into extensive explanations, as well as the options I had for his care. I've been taking Jesse here for his entire 13 years, as well as all my other pets. This is where we always feel we get the best care.

The Doctors and staff at River Hills Pet Care Hospital are the best and we wouldn't trust anyone else with the care of our cats and dogs! They are a kind, compassionate and smart group of women. From toenail trims to very complex medical issues they do a phenomenal job!

The vet I work with never makes me feel like she is rushing through. She truly cares and she takes the time to really talk through everything. In June I lost my beloved puppers and she was such a comfort to me. The entire staff was so sensitive and kind through that awful time in my life. I have now inherited an older pupper and she's been so thoughtful to make sure I can include the other family in updates. I feel like this little guy in my care now is in the best hands. That's a great comfort to me.

Called multiple times and left messages to try to set up a new vet because we were moving to the area and my dog requires regular medication. No one ever returned my calls.

They've got one of the best staff around, and their services are just amazing. They are always greeting you with a smile or being there for you during your losses.

The ENTIRE staff at River Hills is extremely caring and compassionate about their job, staff and the animals. They take their time in making sure your questions are answered and that you and your pet leave taken care of. Thank you all there for what you do.

I recently got my guinea pig and brought her here! She had previous owners and super long, curled up nails. They hadn't cut her nails in roughly four years. This pet hospital got her in right away and were super friendly! They didn't make me feel like I was a bad pet owner (even though I just got her two days prior to bringing her in - I made the appt before I even had her in my care) and they cut her nails in a timely fashion. I think I will bring my other pets here too. This place is much more cleaner than the place I bring my other animals to!

I've always been pretty prompt getting my animals in. Very friendly, the only issues I've ever had is that when I was asked to get a year and specimen for my dog while I was there, would have been nice if one of them assisted me in opening the door while having my dog in one hand, and the urine specimen in the other and trying to open the door at the same time. Also was not made aware ahead of time the cost before the additional procedure was done.

Brought my pet today with an issue for check up. Our doctor did not come and instead, a different doctor came whom I did not meet before. Unfortunately, I experienced a bad case of discrimination whereby I was questioned on the ability to pay for my dog's services, despite having been with this clinic for 3 years and having always paid up front any amounts for the visit.

I get it, theses days, for some folks, those who speak with an accent are by default trash. Although I normally ignore bullies, this time I had to ask the young vet doctor on what grounds did she make such a judgement and why she treated me during the visit like a low class individual. I did not receive a credible explanation from her, although she changed her tone after administering the blood work for my pet.

I really appreciate the patience and time you have given Bauer and me. As a first-time dog mom, I have a lot of questions and concerns! (Understatement) So, really grateful the staff is always willing to answer, and reassure me! Thank you!
