In 1980, Dr. John Johnson broke ground on Great Northwest Animal Hospital. At this time, Culebra was little more than a farm road and the land surrounding the build site was mostly pasture. The tenant spaces in the Great Northwest Animal Hospital building were demolished to build a brand new hospital capable of holding more doctors and exam rooms.
The physical examination is one of the most important procedures we do at Great Northwest Animal Hospital. It sets the foundation for the remainder of the visit. Whether you're pet is visiting for a wellness visit or they are just feeling under the weather today, the doctor's findings during the examination will help determine what the next step needs to be.
At Great Northwest Animal Hospital, we believe everything speaks to our quality of care and that doesn't stop with our facility. Our team works meticulously to keep everything clean and sanitized for the health of your loved one.
Dr. Michele Wright, daughter of associate veterinarian Dr. Loretta Ehrlund, is a second generation veterinarian. Having watched her parents carry out their life's dream, she could see no other future for herself than to further the foundation they had laid out. Dr. Michele is a graduate of Texas A&M University's College of Veterinary Medicine.

We had the absolute best experience possible for our pup Raya! Our vet technician was incredible with her and somehow managed to clip her nails with no trouble! (Shocking if you know our silly girl) Dr. Wright was incredible and extremely thorough and super informative and helpful! My favorite part was how communicative everyone was with us in regards to pricing and most recommended treatments. We were kept in the loop every step of the way. The entire place was extremely clean and neat! We will be returning for sure!

We got our cat Peanut (Maine coone) in for checkup. Friendly staff and very helpful. Very happy with vet. Ciera Johnston and her Assistant. The good news Peanut is ok.just a few meds for him. I will definitely refer to others.

This facility was highly recommended by my sister. Check in was easy and we were promptly called into an exam room to have our cat's health issues addressed. The vet tech was very helpful and caring. The doctor was kind and compassionate. The #1 reason I would also recommend Great Northwest Animal Hospital is because they understand that finances are different for everyone, and they presented us with an estimate for treatment and did not pressure us into anything we were not comfortable affording. Will definitely be back

This place is phenomenal. The support staff, front office staff and Vets are all kind and caring professionals. They listen attentively and really care about your pet. The inside is beautifully remodeled and well taken care of. I transferred here after being unhappy with our past vets office and it has been so much better. Would highly recommend them!

The team was very respectful and patient with me and my fur baby! Glad that I found a vet that took the time to ask me questions, have significant attention to detail, and consider my pets history. Highly recommended

Very friendly, made room in a busy schedule to see our Samson on an emergency basis when his usual clinic couldn't see him for days. Fast in house X-rays and bloodwork. Thorough exam. Cost competitive with area hospitals. He will be coming back. Thanks Great NW and Dr. Stallone!

Everyone was friendly and respectful and they seemed genuinely happy to work there. The staff all treated my puppy with a lot of kindness and respect. The vet I worked with was obviously very well experienced. They went over costs before moving forward with any further examinations or procedures. The waiting area and examination room we were in were kept very clean.

I found Dr. Michele Wright through my sister-in-law who is a veterinarian in New Mexico. They had attended some of the same conferences, and I was in quite a bind. My very ill Dad was in the hospital, and we'd had his poor dog fall sick in the same week. I'd taken him to an emergency vet in town who gave him some medicine but told us he was otherwise fine.

It seemed really dubious based on the tests they performed paired with his lingering symptoms but we hoped it was the case. Unfortunately he was not fine, and Dr. Wright figured out a way to get me an appointment to come in right away. I was splitting my time being in the hospital with my Dad full time while also dealing with our dog and she took extra time out of her day to help us.

Though we sadly ended up having to say goodbye to our sweet pup that day, Dr. Michele was so incredibly compassionate, kind, caring, knowledgeable, and patient. I knew that I would be returning with my other animals for all my needs after that. The entire staff is very friendly, professional, warm, and kind and I truly feel like my pets are getting the best possible care there.

When you're going through a really stressful or hard time and someone goes above and beyond to help you like Dr. Wright and her staff did, it's a bigger gift than one can even say and something I'll never forget.

For many years now, we have had our pets cared for by this practice. In all these years, we have always found Dr. Travis and staff to be compassionate and caring in their delivery of care to each of our pets. When we have encountered a problem with a pet, the staff and Doctors have always been reliable and responsive to our multiple pets needs. There are so many descriptors that can define the superb care this practice exemplifies. Honesty, reliability, compassion, professional and a caring atmosphere all can be used to describe this practice. You can trust the care your pet receives. I strongly recommend them. Your pet will also.

I had the best experience I've ever had with a vet clinic. Everyone was kind from staff girls to doctora. The place is neat and they are very organized when it comes to administrative stuff. If you ever need to get an international health certificate for your fur baby THIS IS THE PLACE! They know the process very well and they expedited everything for me. Definitely would use them again if I weren't moving to another country.

My cat who is only 7 months old began to act very lethargic overnight. I wasn't sure what was wrong with her. So I waited a couple of days thinking maybe she would get better on her own. But as day 3 came around without improvement, I knew it was time to take her to be seen by a doctor. I called everywhere and nobody had anything available for weeks.

Then I called Great Northern Animal Hospital and they were able to get us in the very next morning. Upon my arrival to the clinic, we were quickly greeted and receptionists got us checked in quickly. They ran vitals and my fur baby had a very high fever. To make sure she's okay we decided to get X-rays done and blood work. Which didn't take too long. However, a little pricey.

The wellness exam itself is only $60. But beyond that another &500+. They do offer $10 off when you write a review on google. Results of my fur babies X-ray came back quickly and staff provided me with all options available to take care of my cat and get her back to feeling 100%. The staff were gentle and friendly through out the visit. The clinic itself is very clean and well lit. I would recommend to others.

Working at a previous vet host, i have to say i was very happy and at ease i trusted great north west with my baby. From the receptionist, to the technicians and the Doctor every one was very professional and were very cautious about making our baby comfortable. Prices were reasonable and the Vet took her time to answer our questions even when some were repetitive.

She made us feel comfortable and didn't try to force anything not needed for the care of our baby. Their app makes it so east to see results and dr Notes. and i have to sat working in a vets office where clients use to wait for a weeks i was very impressed we were emailed the vet's notes and records the next day. Good job Great northwest. i think we found our familiy's vet and will be bringing the rest of the babies. the place is so cute and very clean

Took my 5month adopted kitty in for suspicion of ringworm, and they were able to give me preventatives as she was exposed to a positive case. Fast forward both my cats have minor fleas and all I had to do was call in for a prescription! Great service and nice staff

My pet has an unknown diagnosis and I found the veterinarians extremely knowledgeable, informative and helpful in trying to make the best decision on how to move forward. They did not try & push expensive procedures unless absolutely necessary. We tried the lesser intrusive & expensive treatments first. I trust & appreciate the care given at GNAH. P.S. I'm a vet tech visiting from Kentucky!

They were so caring and cheerful and really cared about my dogs well being. They asked me plenty of questions and showed me the breakdown of the bill before anything was done. They have fair prices too!

Found this hospital on google maps and so happy of all Vet offices that I chose to come here! We were welcomed and greeted kindly, the Dr's and staff spend some much time answering all our questions/concerns and make sure to give us all the information we need. The best hospital we've brought our pets to, hands down!
