Veterinarians in Andover, MN

“I was referred to Dr. Lively years ago by my pet's veterinarian when they voiced concerns about one of our cats having noticeable changes in their eye. While he's been given a clean bill of (eye) health, i continue to bring him for yearly check in appointments. I am continually impressed by not only the professionalism but also the empathy expressed by the staff. They truly care and love what they do, and it shows with how they interact with patients. Thank you!”

“I don't even know where to begin.

I adopted a sweet little kitten this past year. She was so active and happy and playful. One day the way she walked randomly changed and she started rapidly losing weight. Within a few days she couldnt walk or stand at all. I was so scared when I brought her in, and even more scared when I was told it is was something called FIP. The survival rate without near-immediate treatment is so low. Dr. Joanne was so supportive when she talked me through the diagnosis and the treatment plan she had set up. She even helped me connect with other people who have gone through dealing with FIP as well.

I am not exaggerating when I say there was a point in October when her weight got down to nearly 1lb and I was preparing to lose her. The treatment was around 3 months. The Andover Vet Clinic became like a second home, having to come in weekly for weight ins and check-ups to making sure the treatment was helping. I still remember the excitement I felt the first time I was able to bring her in for one of her weekly appointments and show them that she was walking again! Omg it was so emotional. Everyone here was so supportive during this treatment and so many people at the clinic took part in making sure the support was there for her. It means so much to go into a vets office and know, without a doubt, the people helping you care about you and your pet.

Anyway here we are, months later, and my sweet little girl has finished her treatment. She has gained all of her weight back AND MORE and is running all over the place like a little maniac. I wish I could post videos on here so everyone could see!

I am so proud of my strong little lady and I am so grateful to this office. I hope everyone who works here knows that they mean so much to me and so much to Clingwrap (I'm sure she misses visiting with you guys). I wish I could give this vet a hundred million stars. ?”

“Pay $120 a month for a puppy plan then when the dog is sick and you need to use one of those “included” vet visits, they don’t have an appointment an say you can call around or can book for a later date. What if my dog doesn’t make it that long? Don’t sign up for any plans here.

Update: Received a call from the hospital manager and asked about the issue. I explained the situation. She explained that it should of been handled differently and will address the staff to make sure this doesn't happen again. It was a pleasant conversation. Hopefully this a one and done thing. Changed the stars because they reached out and were kind.”
