My family had a great experience with Crater Animal Vet this week! Dr. McNett, her assistant, and who ever answered the phone were all amazing.My kids and family have 4-H lambs for the last 5 years in addition to our family having goats, alpacas and the occasional cow. We have not needed to call out a vet for many years. We’ve lost one new baby lamb last week unexpectedly and also have two market lambs with lots of diarrhea after bringing them home that we could not get under control.Because it has been so long since we’ve needed a vet, we had to re-establish with our previous livestock vet who did not show any concern for what we were dealing with regarding needing a timely exam and fecal testing. I understand how busy vets are but it was disheartening. When I called crater, I was expecting a delay in care because of the completely new patient status. That was not the case. Thankfully, the lady on the phone was so kind, helpful, and really made a week day better as we were in the thick of other life stressors and prioritizing a family member nearing the end of hospice.Initially, we were scheduled quickly for a home visit in 2 days but they had a cancellation and came out the same day I called!! The two lambs and our Ewe were all examined for a very reasonable fee. Additionally, Dr. McNett was so gracious with my husband who was the only person able to be home because of our situation that day. Dr. McNett and her assistant were great according to my husband, both did a great job! Dr. McNett clearly loves her job, and per my husband, shared a lot of helpful education.After the appt, I received a detailed message about the care from Dr McNett about the testing, thoughts on diagnosis, and plan. It’s clear she takes pride in her work. As for the sheep, No illness at this time - likely just stress from the move and change in food so that’s great news and we can pause on our worries!!Thank you so much for everything! The Carter Animal Vet team rocks! Dr. McNett sets a great example for my kids (ages 13 and 16) who both want to be livestock vets. It’s a shame they didn’t get to meet you!Heather Friend

This clinic strives to make both owner and pet comfortable.When we come in with an unfortunate situation or illness that our pet is dealing with, the compassionate staff help us feel as calm as possible.We have had to put three of our very sick babies down throughout the years.Every time, our heartbreak is understood and staff is patient and altruistic which helps us come to terms with our tragedy.This is what a vet office should be.I love the front office staff as well.Bithia has the sweetest smile and so do the other beautiful ladies.Thank you all for years of care.

Dr. David Smith is a dedicated and wonderful veterinarian. My little Katie Is my most precious little girl. She was nearing the end of her life, and I was brokenhearted. Dr. Smith helped us to make one of the toughest decisions we have ever made. He came to our home and helped us through this sad time. Now my little girl is at the rainbow bridge. We miss her terribly however, we’re happy she isn’t suffering anymore. I know one day we will join her. Katie you’ll be in our hearts furever!

Just moved & can't find a Veterinarian that could get my animals seen for FLEAS without an extended waiting period.Called Crater Lake Veterinarian Clinic as they've seen my animals within the last year, and have received plenty of my money.They refused to help, and claimed they have to see the animals, and charge for a checkup.The is extortion & the entire industry is a racket! They only care about the money, and display no care for animals or their owners!

Awesome vet. I love the Drs and the staff. Joli is amazing and Dr. Madigan is an angel. Read my long Google review for details. This is an amazing clinic and I'd never go anywhere else.

I cannot recommend this clinic and Dr. Dave Smith enough! I have had 2 dogs undergo serious surgeries here and I trust them completely to give my animals the best medical care as well as kindness and compassion. Dr. Dave cares immensely about the animals he treats as well as the owners. He always takes his time to explain the diagnosis, all of your options, and potential outcomes; as well as answer all of your questions. He then helps you decide what is best for your animal and you with zero judgement. His care and thoughtfulness comes through in every conversation with you and interaction with you pet. Furthermore, I have found their prices to be very reasonable. The techs and reception staff are always nice too. Despite the traumatic surgeries my dogs have undergone here they are always excited to walk through the doors, as if they are coming to see friends (something that has never happened at any other vet clinic we've been to).
