Incredible vet. We love it here and so does our dog, Casserole. Everyone here has been super helpful and knowledgeable, especially since we are first time pet owners. We moved further away from this vet but continue to go here because we are confident in the care they are providing Casserole. Would definitely recommend.

I don't ever leave reviews, but I felt I should share in this case. The staff at Lyndale Animal Hospital is extremely kind, caring, and knowledgable. Everything that was going on with my cat was thoroughly explained in a compassionate way. You can tell how much these folks care about what they are doing.

My boys Jack and Spencer had gone there since they were pups. Dr Koppe and the entire staff of the hospital have always been wonderful. Recently, I lost Jack to cancer. He died on a Saturday when the vet was closed, so I had to take Jack to the emergency vet. The following Friday I received a touching sympathy card from the entire staff at Lyndale Animal Hospital with a touching personal note from Dr Koppie. Jack's surviving brother Spencer still receives the best care from Dr Koppe and staff. I am lucky to have discovered them!

The vet was very informative. My dog, Marley, was in pain and suffering due to ear infection. Her whole side of face was swollen. After care and meds prescribed, she showed drastic improvement within a day and is now back to normal. We had to wait because she started symptoms on the weekend, but would highly recommend if you love your pet, don't attempt to guess, bring them in ASAP!

I've been going to Lyndale Animal Hospital since I first got a kitten in 2015. It is a wonderful clinic and they are extremely kind and understanding. I am giving 4 stars because their parking lot can sometime be tricky to get into and can be frustrating if you aren't used to uptown.

My 16 year old cat was recently seen by Dr. Stoddart for a quite concerning issue. The care that my cat received was so wonderful and caring. My cat is totally thriving now- and doing so well! I could not be more impressed with the care provided by Dr. Stoddart.

Dr. Koppy is the best vet our family has ever had. Before finding her, our experiences ranged from mediocre to awful. She's cared for our cats for several years now, and I cannot say enough about how talented, smart, and compassionate she is. She never makes us feel rushed and addresses all of our concerns. She's helped our cats through dental surgeries, cancer, and kidney disease, with great care and plans that work to keep them healthy for as long as possible.

I wish every animal had a Dr. Koppy to care for them. We also love the rest of the team, including the other vets, techs, and support staff. Everyone is friendly and attentive. 10/10

Our dog is very afraid of the vet, but all of the staff - reception up to the vets - all treat her with care. They have told us multiple times that "We love her but we know the feeling isn't mutual." Recommend in general but if you have a nervous pet, you cannot get a better, more understanding crew.

Every time my dog and I visit here, we're so happy. My dog acts like he's seeing family members when we walk through the door, wagging his tail and jumping all around with his puppy excitement, eager to greet everyone. He loves it and I love it. Everyone is very responsive and so, so kind every time, even if I just need advice on the phone. It really is the best, I'm so happy I found them.

My dog is a rescue and super timid/cautious and they make him feel comfortable and they take such great care of him. If you have an animal and you love them, I highly recommend taking them here. :

Dr. Stoddart is such a compassionate and caring vet. She also does a fantastic job at comprehensively explaining my cat's health and next steps in her care. Moreover, service costs are reasonable and affordable.

Best vet in the cities! I can't say enough good things about Dr Stoddart and this vet clinic. I would highly recommend them. They worked with us compassionately as we diagnosed and adjusted the medication for our epileptic cat, and provided clear guidance for our cat and kittens health.

Lyndale Animal Hospital is an excellent place to take your pets! Even through this pandemic they have been extra caring and cautious. My kitty Sapphire has been having skin issues and I brought her in once in May. They came to my car to pick her up safely and conduct the exam inside. I was on the phone with the Dr during the visit. Since then I've had follow up phone calls and they helped me find a solution without having to bring her in again, saving me lots of money, time, and stress! I can't recommend them highly enough. It's worth the drive even now that I live in the suburbs. Thanks for helping my kitty get better!

Doctor Grindle is the best vet we've worked with! So friendly and helpful! We wouldn't want to go to any other vet. The staff is also very friendly.

Lyndale Animal Hospital is just so, so wonderful. All the staff are so caring and thoughtful. I brought in my Miss Delia because she was having issues with her mouth and she wasn't eating. Dr. Benson was so. assuring as we tried to figure out what was going on. (Delia probably ate an insect or was having a reaction to a toxin in a plant. You gotta keep those house plants out of reach!) Dr. Benson was so thorough as she explained what we could do to solve the problem.

With a combination of treatments, we got Miss Delia back to her old, perky, goofy self. Thank you so much to Dr. Benson and all the staff, especially during this time of COVID-19. The precautions you are taking to curb the spread of the virus are commendable, and we all certainly appreciate the work you do!

I've been going to Lynadal Animal Hospital for about 8 years now and can't imagine switching. I've been to a couple other hospitals in the area in the past, all really good but LAH is family. We've had a couple health scares with my cats over the years but they've always helped us out. They've been caring towards my little guys and myself since day. 1.

Remarkable considering I'm definitely "that guy" that will call if I see one of them chewing weird (true story!) and I need to be talked off a ledge. Love this place and their staff. If you're looking for a vet and good people that care, this is it.

I have personally felt disrespected and dismissed by the staff at Lyndale Animal Hospital. In the past, Kelsey (front desk) has acted very condescending towards me when I have genuine concerns and questions about my cat's health (specifically his RX diet). I just received copies of my cat's medical records and confirmed that she has left rude notes about me in his records.

Lyndale Animal Hospital has lost their mind. Their pricing is ridiculous, and don't call before price check on flea meds, because when you come to pick them up, they add a $5 restocking charge for the two times that I called to check prices. There for three confortis pills at $20 each and an additional $10 for restocking fee. So instead of $60 I. had to pay $70.

That is utterly ridiculous! It's gotten to the point that regular people can't afford to take care of their pets. And they swivel around in their chair to reach up to get the flea medicine that stacked on shelves right behind their desk.

I had been taking my dog here for about 9 months. I've been pleased with the service, and the price is reasonable. I'd also like to thank the staff for their compassion and support, as I recently had to say goodbye to my 13 year old dog. We also have two cats, which I plan on bringing here as well in the future.

My dog had tummy trouble and wasn't eating or drinking so I brought her in to see dr bensman and the dr took excellent care of her as usual. They have an A+ staff and I am always happy with the care my pets receive

12 years ago I took my young cat to this animal hospital seeking a second opinion after hearing my cat could have cancer. We were treated well and they removed one of my cats front legs and part of his shoulder at the tune of $2500. I had another cat at the time and over the years had a few visits here and there. Being house cats they were. relatively low maintenance. 5.5 years ago, my cat with 4 legs had seen her final days and Lyndale Animal Hospital agreed.

Her loss was heartbreaking and they even sent a card. Yesterday, after making an appointment last week, I took my old three legged guy all the way from bloomington to our trusted vet in Minneapolis. From the beginning they were.
