Is there any way to give zero stars? This vet is a money grab! During covid, they would not allow us to enter the lobby and then proceeded to charge our card for $25 extra. Further, the vet had recommended a $2,500 surgery to fix a bladder stone issue. We told them that we would have to put our cat down for this because we couldn't afford the surgery. They then suggested a new diet which did work; however, shouldn't this have been their first recommendation? Our cat is now due for a yearly checkup and they will not approve the prescription food diet that they recommended us. We will be taking our animals elsewhere!

A few years back my bull mastiff had a cancerous tumor in his eye that had to be removed, the veterinarian eye specialist in Grand Rapids wanted $2,200 to remove his eye, which was out of our budget, it looked like we were going to have to put him down until the vet's at West Michigan Veterinarian said they would do the surgery for $600.00 - Rosco went on to live for 3 more happy one eyed years afterwards.

They have been great when I've gone, on the small animal side. Very gentle with my puppies and seem to actually care. On the other side, Dr. Cole was amazing with my horses and very helpful and kind. He answered all my questions and gave me great advice. Thanks everyone

Love this place. My family has been taking our dogs there since I was a little kid and they were in a small building across the street. All the vets are great and caring people. Had my dog there this afternoon for an exam because he wasn't feeling well and the Vet, not just the tech, spent almost 30 minutes going over all my questions and concerns. Highly recommended.
