Veterinarians in Cedar Falls, IA

“I can’t say enough good things about Brookside Veterinary Hospital. They have been by my side for years, caring for both of my cats, and most recently guiding me through one of the hardest challenges, my cat’s diabetes diagnosis this past year.
When I walked into their office, I was overwhelmed with fear and grief, still reeling from losing my partner just five months earlier. The thought of losing my best friend on top of everything else was unbearable. But Brookside stepped in with compassion and reassurance. They didn’t just treat my cat, they supported me. They educated me, encouraged me, and reminded me that I could do this, that with the right changes, my cat could return to a manageable, healthy life.
Dr. Bell has been incredibly patient and kind, taking the time to explain things as many times as I needed until I fully understood. And the techs, every single one of them, have been amazing. Special shout out to Ann, who goes above and beyond every week to make sure my cat’s special glucose support food is ordered and stocked. When I missed an order once, she tracked down five or six emergency cans from another facility just 20 minutes before closing and arranged for me to pick them up immediately. That level of care is rare, and it means the world to me.
I have also called with emergency concerns after hours, and I have always received a phone call back. They get my cats in quickly and efficiently during those moments, which gives me so much peace of mind. I know my cats are in the best hands and hearts here at Brookside. I truly have so much love for all of you.
From answering calls to scheduling appointments and handling supplies, the entire team has shown nothing but warmth and genuine concern. Brookside isn’t just a veterinary hospital, they are a lifeline, and I am so grateful for everything they have done for me and my cats.”

“Dr Goetsch has went above and beyond for my senior kitty, Boo. I brought Boo in for the first time here when she was very sick & honestly thought I would lose her. The Doctor was honest, but gave me options and didn't pressure me into anything. In the end, they hospitalized my kitty and have been so involved in her recovery. They communicate and keep in touch so well, are good at working us into the schedule, very up front with costs & are reasonably priced. I have never taken my kitty to a place where I feel so at peace with the care she is getting. From the receptionists, to the techs, to the Doctors, it has all been so positive. Thank you for helping my kitty heal!”

“quick from arrival to room, kind staff & vets, and although my cat doesn't love his trips there, he's always gotten top notch care (sorry buddy, you had to get stitches and wear that cast!)”

“My Boston, Charlie, has been coming to Companion for years. We have been treated with nothing but honesty and kindness. Both very much appreciated! The whole staff has a way of making you feel that they actually care about you and your pets.”

“Dr. Craig and his staff are some of the friendliest and caring individuals I have come across in the many years of having pets. I joke we are frequent flyers, but it is mostly because they make all visits and experiences pleasant when we come here. They also are reasonable and transparent when it comes to costs. We appreciate all that you do for us! Thank you, Roxy Lintz”

“Next level veterinary care ! Tremendously value the high quality expertise and professionalism of this care team!! If you want a professional, extra knowledgeable, sincere care team; plus top notch facilities the CVVC is your place! Their care is literally on par with Iowa State Veterinary Center - including advanced diagnostics, and phenomenally knowledgeable and professional veterinarians and techs. I also appreciate the care team’s bedside manner - so caring, courteous and respectful to my pets and I; they understand pet stress and diffuse it. Exams are done with you and your pet together. They talk to and reassure my pet during examination, and ask thorough questions to deduce diagnosis. I’m beyond impressed with this Cedar Valley gem!”

“We have taken our pets to the Budreau Clinic over 20 years and have always received excellent medical services & great care! Danny & Julie have been extremely helpful with our pets at good & at bad times!”

“I can only sing high praises about all of the staff! Had a sick puppy and was turned away from far too many vet clinics who claim to do emergent care. They do, IF you are already a client but refused to help me. I called Dr. Budreeau's office and they were immediately willing to see me and my puppy with the hour. They took a thorough exam, discussed his care with me in detail and in a way I could understand. The entire staff treated my pup like he was golden and precious. They treated me with respect for my fears and concerns. They are amazing and the only vet I will use from here on out!”
