During our time of hardship and turmoil, Ashley and the rest of the staff at this vet clinic eased our pain and provided masterful care to get through a difficult time. The team here deserve praise for their compassion and commitment. I’m utterly impressed with the care and professionalism. I couldn’t imagine a better group of people. I recommend this vet clinic over any other in Arizona. Always in our hearts, thank you.

Dr. Capria is my main vet for my two cats, Matilda and Leo, and I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. I’ve seen two other vets in the practice too and they all communicate so well with each other, which makes a huge difference.What really sets this place apart is how thorough the visits are. You actually sit down with the vet, in the room and talk through everything. At every other office I’ve been to, you barely see the vet and then get a quick phone call after the appointment. Here it’s the opposite. They take their time, explain everything, and answer every question. Matilda’s dental surgery and Leo’s ear issues have both been handled with so much care. Fair prices, honest answers, and a team that genuinely loves what they do. Text messages and app is very helpful ans well. They are opened 7 days a week! I also have the membership for my two new cats and wow, I saved soooo much money just with in house membership. Highly recommend!

My Boston terrier, Maisy has been seeing Dr Lockhart at Tempe Lake Veterinary Clinic for over 4 years. Their new location has easy access from the freeway and the facility has all the convenient services for my pet. The staff is always so kind and explains in detail what Maisy needs and the options.
I would highly recommend our vet for your pet. 🐾

I couldn’t recommend Tempe Lake Vet enough! I used their vet, grooming, and boarding services and all of them were amazing. Every time we would go in my dog was dragging me in and so excited to greet the everyone at the front desk. I have never seen a dog so excited to go to the vet. Unfortunately, we moved out of state and one of the hardest parts has been finding a clinic as good as this one. You can tell that each person working there has a big heart for animals

My retriever was diagnosed with bone cancer. We opted for palliative care. The whole staff at Tempe Lake Veterinary was completely supportive. As well as; empathetic and just plain kind.
In a sad situation when it was time for euthanization, my beloved Shakespear. The staff there made sure we had a big enough room for all of us (5 people ) to be there with him. It went as smoothly as it could. The staff left us to stay as long as we wanted.
It only took about a week to get his remains back. They even made a paw print in clay for us.. Also it was not horribly expensive...
I highly recommend them. From diagnosis to euthanization was made so much easier.I would like to take this opportunity to tell them "Thank you from the bottom of my heart"... Tami Rouse
