Amazing clinic and wonderful staff. They fit me in right away when I was worried about my cat, and they do in house bloodwork so I was able to get the results right away. Very impressed with the service and will definitely be bringing my pets there from now on.

Best vet hospital I've ever come across, and I've moved around a lot in my life so have experienced quite a few. Dr. Rhett & his team are fantastic, thorough, trustworthy, friendly, helpful, and they really care about your pets and you as a customer. Wouldn't go anywhere else.

I absolutely love this clinic. They are friendly and warm and I am always treated like family when I walk through the doors. Dr. Rhett Mortenson is amazing. I have never met anyone so devoted to animals and gives great advice. I'd never go anywhere else.

An excellent clinic. The staff is experienced and caring, and Dr. Mortensen is an excellent surgeon and diagnostician. His work is of the highest caliber. He doesn't rest on his laurels, but is constantly updating by attending seminars and taking courses on the latest research and techniques in his field. Highly recommended.

I cannot speak highly enough of Coombs Veterinary Hospital and recommend them 100%! I've dealt with a number of local Vets over the years and I worked as a Vet Assistant for a time, but I've never been to a better place than Coombs Vet. They are so kind, helpful and understanding. They are very knowledgeable and always explain things to me in detail- I think educating pet owners is great, and it helps us take the best care possible of our beloved pets. They are very honest and trustworthy and I always come away feeling like they truly care about my pets more than anything else, and for me as an owner as well. I have never felt pressure to agree to procedures I could not afford and never have they suggested anything that wasn't totally necessary, they have always done what is most important and have given me all my options. They have gone above and beyond for us and for others we know several times. Dr. Mortenson is a wonderful person and a fantastic Veterinarian.

When no one else could figure out what was wrong with my dog, Dr. Mortenson did! I had spent over $2000 on test at another clinic and no answers, 10 minutes with Dr. Mortenson and he knew. I will be forever grateful for "Rhett the vet".

Rhett and his staff were excellent with myself and my family. We came to him in an emergency when our old vet would not see our dog. Rhett and his staff were excellent with us. We continue to use him on a regular basis and I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Rhett is awesome!! Even though I had never met him, when I called his clinic in an emergency, he came immediately to my home, when my previous vet refused to help me as my old dog was suffering a heart problem and I could not move her..Another emergency arose with my other dog being hit by a car and at 7:30 am, he met me at the clinic and did what he could for him..I would not take my dogs anywhere else..He has such a big heart and that is hard to find..Keep up the good work, Rhett

Great clinic. My dog had a stick caught in its throat and I showed up in a panic at 5pm and they helped me immediately. The vets started working on sally right away and the staff sat with me updating me the entire time. Even though we were there till late in the evening, they never charged me for anything extra. The next day I got a call from the Dr. and he was so nice. I will never go anywhere else.

Dr. Rhett Mortenson has done a fine job with our animals. Check-ups are carefully done. He is really enthusiastic about his work and he is computer-literate. He spends a lot of time consulting with his colleagues on VIN. His office staff employees are always efficient. Facilities are modern. He has a digital dental X-ray machine, so we got to see really good pictures of out cat's teeth. Appointments have always been prompt. I don't think we have ever waited at all. The hospital gives good value both money-wise and time-wise. He takes a lot of time with his clients explaining details and options. I would recommend this hospital.

have been taking my pets to Dr. Rhett for several years now, could be 7, not to sure anymore lol. I remember the first visit with my dog Mickey. First thing Dr.Rhett said to Mickey was "hello sweetie,what's going on with you?" Mickey didn't answer ;) so I did lol. Right at that point I knew we had an excellent care giver.
Next was Bailey and of course my cat Tigger had to visit. That cat was so relaxed that he lay in the scale basket and just rolled around lol.
Anyways, if you are looking for an excellent team of caregivers from the desk to the back room, then you need to visit the little country town of Coombs and go say hi. Tell them I sent you. We won't get anything for it but it would be kind of cool lol.

Chloe came to live with me, following the passing of her "Mommy". A thorough exam by "my vet" was the first stop, to get a good idea of her health and her needs. Dr. Mortenson was very patient with both of us, and pointed out Chloe's need for more than just catching-up on her shots. Chloe has a new best friend, and I would (and have) recommend Dr. Mortenson, Dr Yao and all the staff at Coombs Veterinary Hospital without hesitation.

My Bouvier, Boo Boo's life was saved several times over the last few years by the expertise and knowledge of your vets and staff and they are really helping me to manage her chronic condition. She is a happy dog again! Also, I inherited my mother's eighteen and a half year old Bichon and Shih Tzu cross, Chicho when my mother passed last year. He was in declining health pretty rapidly and my mother's vet didn't know why. When I took him to Coombs Veterinary Hospital he was diagnosed with the beginnings of kidney disease from old age and I was informed in detail how I could care for him with diet and everything in this stage of his life. Now he has put on weight and rebounded and is happier too! This makes me very happy !!
