WestVet Boise 24/7 Animal Emergency & Specialty Center 5024 West Chinden Boulevard, Garden City, ID 83714

"My 18 year old cat was at the end of his journey, and fortunately for us we were referred to West Vet by Boise Cat Clinic (another wonderful veterinarian). I was absolutely heartbroken to know what we were facing, and even knowing that it was time to help him cross the rainbow bridge I asked for an exam. The folks at West Vet were able to get him looked over and confirm that his cancer and renal failure had become too much for him. We had been treating for months already, there was nothing left to do to keep him comfortable. I was so distraught that I can't recall the veterinarian's name. She immediately felt like a dear friend. She explained what was going on, and walked me through the various options. We chose euthanasia, a heart breaking choice, but the compassionate one for my Henry. The doctor and Hasan were so warm, caring, gentle and helpful guiding us through the process. We were given a very comfortable room and as much time as we needed. After quite some time my cat settled in on the couch and went to sleep. This is when we pushed the call button and helped him cross peacefully. It was an absolute hellish day on us, but these people made it as comfortable as possible. I've been through this before elsewhere in another state and it was a very cold, clinical and awful experience. Not at West Vet. They may have only known my cat for a few hours, but it felt like they love him as much as I do. If you're in need of urgent care for a pet, this is the place to go. They care about you and your furry friend's well-being. I'll never forget that heart breaking day. When those memories come rushing back I'll also remember the comfort given by the caring people here."

"Thank you to the staff for the compassion they not only showed my husband and i but to our sweet little guy. We lost our Dashell suddenly at 3:30 am the 9th, i called and was given information on what to do. Once we arrived they helped us navigate the cremation process, getting his paw prints , nose prints plus fur and allowing us time to properly say goodbye. The vet tech working was so kind with how she handled him from softly petting his head and playing with his ear which he always loved. So thank you"

"This post is mainly for the facility. It's been almost a week but my dog is good now no thanks to westvet. I went here cause my dog had bad GI. As I wasn't sure what to do at the time, it was late at night while she was pooping blood. Decided to go here knowing it's an expensive place. It would be better off if they told me to go home and let her skip a meal and feed her boiled chicken and rice but in small portions and progress it later on. No, I had to look up things myself since the directions I was giving seemed to focus on the royal canine GI wet food when she showed no interest for it. Going there felt like another day for them taking another dog in. To leave with only a blood drawn (which I was grateful knowing the test came back great and breathing was good) and paying $670 just for her to get an enormous cyst on her neck that was infected giving her a 104 fever. Turned to be a bigger problem for myself and my dog."

"Hazel Nut injured her back and I came here for a second opinion. All the staff at West Vet have been amazing. They responded quickly and listened to my concerns. Dr. Mooney and Amanda on the Neurology team are the best. Dr. Mooney explains everything fully and is a great surgeon. All the front desk staff have also been super great to work with. Great place for competent care on pet emergencies."
