Inver Grove Heights Animal Hospital

When Chief and I first moved to MN, I was informed this was the best bully vet in the area. He got sick, I called, and unfortunately they were overwhelmed as it was just lost COVID and it would be six months before I could get him in as a new patient.

Fast forward, we were blessed to get an appointment and we met with an amazingly kind staff who ushered us quickly to our room to meet with the first vet I had zero doubt understand my boy’s condition.

Zero pressure for unnecessary procedures, actually telling me that we’ll take things at Chief’s tolerance and see how things progress. And, Chief loved them because they asked him to go out of the room without me and he happily walked away.

Chief’s the happiest I’ve seen him in three years! If we had to move, I’d fly Chief back here for a visit. So very thankful we found our doc!!!

Our first experience here was amazing. My dog has been having medical issues. The vet and her assistant were so very kind and informative. I will absolutely be going back.

Very knowledgeable, I brought my pregnant pug here and after she delivered I also brought the babies and her in for a check up. Everything was great. I do recall sitting in the parking lot for over a half an hour before I was allowed to come in the building.

This clinic is AWESOME for reactive dogs. While my dog, Roscoe, is normally very sweet, he loses his mind whenever he goes to the vet. He does not enjoy being examined or getting poked with needles and will be very vocal about letting you know that. I have brought him here 3 times, and every time the medical team has been so patient and nice with him. They are able to get all of his shots and blood work done. We were essentially turned away from another clinic for him in the past due to his behavior issues at the vet, so we really appreciate the effort the staff here put towards accommodating him and how nonjudgmental they are about his behavior. Really recommend for anyone with a similar situation!

Absolutely recommend this clinic. If you are looking for a clinic with staff who are well versed in reproductive health/breeding and well bred dogs or just looking for a friendly and intuitive vet staff in general, this is the right place for you! My standard poodle had a routine check up followed up by a test for OFA and breeding with Dr. Ellis and she was outstanding! Very thorough and interested in all my boy has achieved so far and what we are working towards and very knowledgeable on his breed as well which is a huge added bonus. I didn’t feel like just a number coming in and out of the clinic I felt very comforted in the fact that Dr. Ellis was genuinely interested in my dog’s future and progress and told us about her experience with her dogs as well! She also asked multiple times if I had any other concerns other than what I came in for which was nice. The technician we had in the room was super caring and handled my dog very well too. We were very impressed by this team and facility and even though it is a farther drive for us we will for sure be coming back for future veterinary needs.
