*Updating and downgrading*My girl wasn’t strong enough to fight her preventable kidney infection. The carelessness of Dr Hintner is devastating. I will no longer be taking any family pets to Bandon Vet ever again.Pet parents, please be vigilant. I’m giving one star for the staff, who is lovely, and one star because several years ago, my cat had pancreatitis and they nursed him back to health.HOWEVER. Six weeks ago I was visiting family and I took my other 19 year old cat with kidney disease to Bandon Vet because her ears and teeth were bothering her, and they did a senior panel - bloodwork, urinalysis, the works. While Dr Hintner called me with the results and confirmed she has kidney disease, she neglected to tell me that my cat also had a UTI. Fast forward six weeks, she lost weight and wasn’t eating much. Took her to my usual vet in Portland and showed them the bloodwork done in Bandon and turns out, the results showed she had a UTI that Dr Hintner did not bother to mention to me. Now, the UTI has progressed to a kidney infection. Had Dr Hintner pointed this out obviously I would have treated it then, but I’m not a vet, I don’t know how to interpret cat lab results. My old kitty is now on a long course of antibiotics which could have been easily prevented if Bandon Vet had told me about the UTI and treated it back in November. My poor girl, I hope she’s strong enough to make it. I’m incredibly disappointed in the carelessness of Dr Hintner and Bandon Vet.

I have taken my purebred German Shepherd here a few times for ear infections, blood tests, and wellness checks.Very happy with Doctor Baum and Doctor Hittner and I wholeheartedly recommend both for their generous time and professionalism. Both veterinarians always listened to me and I ended up learning something in the process.My dog does not get along with other dogs. And the people at Bandon Veterinary Hospital are very accommodating about this, making sure no other dogs are present when he enters the building.Prices are very reasonable, especially when you consider the shortage of veterinarians we have in this area.All the ingredients for five stars in my book!*****

terrible. place we are preferred customers I have a German shepherd!! they never make an effort to see him between appointments when he has an issue comes up!!!! Unless you make an emergency appointment!! my opinion. They have no compassion at all for animals. Crazy!!!!

Thanks again Dr Hewitt for taking the time to sit with Tinker while we talked, especially after he lost his little temper. He calmed down enough to take a cookie!! Such a good experience for him-- and us

Bandon Veterinary is one of the best clinics I have ever been to. The team is friendly and caring, and I can get in at short notice. I love the way Dr Elizabeth responds to our poodle! You can tell she loves animals and her treatment is right from the heart. Thank you!

I've been going to Bandon vet since the 70's. I've worked with rescue groups and our local shelter for years. I always choose Bandon Vet over any other. I'm treated with respect and my animals or fosters are treated as if their own pet. I love Bandon Vet.

My dog got great care and they paid attention to me as well. My Dr even called me to follow up on a few things. Great Vet hospital I would recommend them

Over priced, and uncompassionate people. Spent 60 dollars to be denied vaccines for my cat and told I could keep her appointment to be spayed (a month or two down the line) due to her being pregnant. Showed up for her appointment for them to tell me I couldn't get her spayed yet even though the vet had told me it would be perfectly okay for her and the kittens. Then took my cat in to be spayed and vaccinated another two months later, and after paying nearly 400 dollars she was returned to me soaked in her own urine with stitches sticking an inch out of her stomach. They insisted she stay overnight after her procedure and I got her back, dehydrated, hungry and soaked. I will never be taking her back there. I am not impressed by the misinformation and cruelty shown to my cat. Took me 3 appointments over the course of 4 months to get anything done for my cat.

These are good human beings. Thisbis a business, so don't expect charity, but everything south of it I abundant. Compassion, care, I could add 100 more adjectives, but will let you apply your own after using them for 30 years. It is an attitude, an environment, not the result of an individual effort or style. It's engraved in that very building. I hope I die before anything changes there. Good folk

We are new to the area and Dr Hewitt is so knowledgeable and kind to our fur babies. The staff is amazing! I know they care about my pets and concerns for their health and well being.

Dr. Baum and his entire staff treated us and our dogs and cats with care, compassion and respect for the almost 7 years we lived on the coast. Recently saying goodbye to our 23 year old cat Cle, and a week later to my dog of 22 years, Pappy right before we moved out of state. They sent his ashes to me as I requested complete with a very sweet note. Our family will miss you all very much and we wish the best to Dr. Baum and his great staff! Thank you for everything!

I recently took my Board collie to Bandon vet, second time because he had blood drops from his sheath. The lady vet examined him and found nothing wrong so we have to run test. Off she goes with my dog ang comes back again with no problem. We were there 1/2 hour and the bill was $431.00. I had no idea it was going to cost that much. She never said a word. I live on SSI and a small savings. I felt like I just got kicked in the gut.

I can not say enough about Dr. Baum. He has been my vet for almost thirty years, through four dogs and many cats. He is a straight shooter, does his best and is always kind.

Our cat was really sick, so my husband took her there to be seen and they wouldn't even open the door! They didn't even take the time to look at her and turned him away and told him to go to Coos Bay. What kind of people go into the animal business yet turn away animals that are sick, suffering and dying? THIS PLACE IS A JOKE!!!! They don't deserve a license to care for animals!! I would suggest never taking any of your pets there. I'm disgusted!!!
