Dr. Foss knew from an early age that he wanted to take care of animals. Born in Arizona, he moved to Idaho to complete his undergrad education at U of I and then earned his doctorate from Washington State University Veterinary College. He eventually moved to the gorge and built the Hood River Alpine Veterinary Hospital.
Hood River Alpine has a Wellness Plan for its customers. Our clients who join the Wellness Plan are eligible for a variety of discounts. An annual fee qualifies their pet for free annual vaccines and exam, as well as deworming and testing for internal parasites. Those on the wellness plan receive discounted services throughout the year including exams, surgeries, dentistry, x-rays, ultrasounds, medications and more.
We work hard to make sure that there is always a veterinarian on call to see you and your pet on emergency. Please call (541) 386-6658 and follow the prompts on the message service. Leave a message and the doctor on call will return your call. Please keep your phone available. If your call is placed after 10pm, the doctor will only return calls of established clients.

UPDATE 09/17/2021: Received a letter from Michael A Foss “DVM” that states we should establish care at another hospital. No call, emails or online submissions have been returned from their office. But they send a letter AFTER we have already established care elsewhere. Another local vet office has told me many people have quit this place and hope it turns around. I think I agree with them. I hope it turns around.
UPDATE: It’s been 6 days and still no returned call from Michael Foss or anyone from that office. I’ve sent 2 emails and called multiple times….
What a dumpster fire this place

My dog had an emergency wish I had chosen this place, (my parents take their animals here) instead made the wrong choice to go elsewhere and deeply regretted it. This place is polished, professional, RELIABLE, TRUSTWORTHY, Communicate, maybe spendy but honestly you get what you pay for and you get the quality service here. On top of that the front desk girls are always on top of it and friendly.

What a dumpster fire this place is. Started taking our recently adopted dog to this place back in August of 2020. Since then we have seen 3 different vets because his usual vet is ”unavailable”. But today there’s only one vets name on the door plaque….. weird…..
Back story……
Our dog has a few health/allergy issues and is on a special diet BUT getting this office to write any type of perception for his food is like pulling teeth. Our first prescription was written by Michael Foss on 2/8/21 for “Hydrolyzed Diet, via royal canine”.
Now fast forward to today, the last straw…

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
Incredible! Recently moved to Hood River and they made the transition to a new vet so easy for us! Very friendly and professional. They are the first vet we’ve been to in the last year of the pandemic that actually has the Vet come out to your car as well to update you and answer questions. Really impressed and grateful!
