Services
As certified pet medical experts, our staff is dedicated to discovering the root of your pet's health concerns. We aim to provide top-quality customer service backed by exceptional pet care. Our high standards enable us to provide the devoted care that your pet deserves. We know trusting your pet's health with a stranger can be difficult, which is why we make our best effort to get to know our pet parents and patients on a more personal level.
We value our pet patients and aim to provide the highest standard of care. With services ranging from routine wellness exams to spay and neuter surgery, our veterinary health professionals can meet your pet's medical needs. Below are some of the many services and procedures that we perform on a regular basis - with the utmost concern for pet wellness and safety.
Those who share their lives with pet birds know these charming animals make great companions. Not only are many birds covered with beautiful colors, but their songs make a home come alive and their "human-like" voices and antics can amuse people for hours. In addition, many pet birds can live for over 50 years, providing decades of joy for those who choose these wonderful pets.
In providing general pet medicine, our veterinary staff is capable of diagnosing and treating a variety of pet medical needs. Our approach to diagnostic and therapeutic services is meant to allow you and your pet increased comfort while maintaining confidence that you are in capable hands. At our veterinary office, we take corresponding safety precautions and observe all sanitation standards.
In an added effort to provide your pet with quality care, we offer pet dental services in our veterinary office. It is estimated that 80% of pets exhibit the beginning stages of periodontal disease by age 3, which is why dental exams and teeth cleanings are essential. Also, studies indicate that pets with good oral hygiene tend to live 2 to 4 years longer than pets who neglect dental care.

Took my parrot in. Called as traffic was bad. Had been on the road an hour. Would be 5 min late. Receptionist told me I couldnt be seen, and it was rude to be late. I was horrified. She put me on hold long enough for me to pull into the parking lot.
She got back on the linr and decided we could be seen.
Parrot goes in for beak and toenail trim. 34.00 everywhere Ive gone for 34 years.
She brings him out, says the bill is 110.00. I almost fainted.Asked her why? She rudly told me that was the price. I paid and said I wouldnt be back as price was too high and it was 34.00 last time I was here.

Took my kitten in to get checked up and start her shots and couldn't have went smoother. Even though I'm a novice and is my first ever pet, the staff was super friendly and helpful to me and answered any questions I had. Me and my kitten are greatful😸

I highly recommend avoiding this place and Dr. John Berry at all costs, the vet himself clearly did not have the best interest of the animal at all. If you do have to go, please be careful and do plenty of research on any treatments they may recommend, especially if it is risky and puts a lot of stress on the animals.

I took in my recently-rescued and neglected 22-year old quaker parrot with a severe feather-plucking problem for an examination on 5/28/2021, so that she can be covered by a pet insurance. Dr. John Berry, the only avian vet in the area, examined the bird and said that she has no

Took my 1 year old ferret in to be seen for sneezing/coughing fit being told allergies and nope she has bronchitis and a adrenal disease. So my best advice take your ferret to the center for birds and exotic animals medicine in Bothell's.

We had a fantastic experience at Lynden Veterinary Hospital! We’ve been traveling full-time with our 2 dogs for the last 2 years and it’s always stressful and a little scary if they get sick or injured in a new and unfamiliar place. Our Coconut was having a problem with her eye, and we so appreciated them fitting us in. Melissa and Dr. Berry were both super friendly and helpful, and they were able to quickly diagnose and treat her eye infection. Coconut can be a bit fearful of new people and especially being away from me, but she was calm and relaxed when they brought her out, so I know she

While the staff at this vet are nice, the doctors aren't exactly... Good. We had a severely malnourished reptile that we picked up as a rescue to try and save. I was uninformed at the time, but looking back, it obviously had Metabolic Bone Disease. The vet said he was fine, just needed to be force fed. A week later we were at the ER due to him having seizures. We were given proper meds, and it died a day later as we were too late. We've brought multiple pets into this vet after, and every time we have been told they needed antibiotic injections for at least 7-10 days... At $30 per injection. They

My dwarf holland lop went into GI stasis last year when the winter storm hit and I called the vet and they took him immediately. He was there two nights and I wasn't sure if he would make it but they gave him a series of shots and got things moving again. I'm very grateful for the staff in handling my bunny and answering all of my questions...I had a lot. Now my bunny is as happy and healthy as ever...pellets free! And we have a second bunny we rescued who will also be going to this vet. Thank you lynden vet!

Since my regular vet was not available I brought my hen to Lynden Veterinary for a deep non-healing wound with an infection that had spread to the abdomen, which was swollen. Berry made a poor impression for a first time visit: He did not introduce himself, was abrupt, and was rough in handling an animal that was clearly in pain. To lend some objectivity, over the last ten years I have seen three different veterinarians at Kulshan Vet who have always been gentle and compassionate with my hens. He also didn't even clearly visualize the wound--I personally had to move the feathers aside to

Our parakeet was obviously dying, head could not stand up, couldn't stay on her perch, laid on the cage bottom for hours and couldn't eat or drink. It was very sad and my partner brought her in to be put down. He was talked into trying to save her and after 3 days of overnight care, medication, and hundreds of dollars later, she of course, died. We reluctantly paid the vet bills and then LVH went on to charge for removal and when that bill wasn't paid promptly because we had just paid unexpected hundreds trying to save her, they tacked on 4.50 monthly for late fees and finance charges

Dr. Berry blends expert technical skill and professionalism with the love of all animals.
We know other very fine vets in Bellingham, but we drive out to Lynden so our birds can be cared for by Dr. Berry and his staff.
When Dr. Berry holds one of our parrots in his hand and talks to it as he kisses the top of its head, we can watch as the bird relaxes for its exam and treatment.
We are fortunate to have had Dr. Berry's hospital recommended by several friends. Thanks to all.

Dr. Barry and team are absolutely amazing!! You can really tell these people have a heart for animals, it shows in the care and interactions.
We had to bring our guinea pig in for eye surgery (a few times), they took excellent care of us and made sure we knew what to expect and how to care for him after.
Thanks for being so awesome keep it up!!!

Dr. Berry is wonderful. I feel comfortable with him and I feel he cares. He gives you time and I never feel rushed. He takes excellent care of my dog and is by far the best vet I've found in the last 7 years. We are new to the area and felt very welcomed at his clinic. Keep it up, we really appreciate your services and the time you give during a visit. I would absolutely recommend their services

Dr. Berry and his staff are amazing! Christy, Jobbie, Lauren, and Laura at the front desk are always happy to see you and always greet you with a smile.
In February I had a boxer puppy that had an accident, it was closing time for them, but they still took their time to help me to see what was wrong with my baby.
Melisa and April took very good good care of him while he was there, unfortunately they couldn't do anything to save him, but I got to stay with him until he took his last breath.
Dr. Berry did everything he could and more to help me and my family, since I was in school he helped

The staff are so loving and caring. We have used them for many years unfortunately they recently assisted in the departure of our sweet loving Wheaton Terrier, Bentley. He was our loyal companion for 11 short years. He went to work with us every day and brought joy to many people, photographed over and over as he had such a loving sweet face. They went out of there way to comfort us and gave us as much time as we needed to be with him prior to and after his passing. We no longer have any pets at home but if we should ever heal from Bentley's passing, Lynden Veterinary Hospital is the ONLY

I just brought Mr. G. , my 15 to 17 year old cat, home from Lynden Vet Hospital. A tremendous weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I was afraid Dr. Berry would suggest the little fellow be put down because he hasn't been eating well for the past two weeks. Turns out that he has severe arthritic inflammation in his spine. Dr. Berry reckoned he was in so much pain that he couldn't eat and recommended a series of cold laser treatments to relieve the inflammation.

Mr. G. was offered Royal Canin Recovery food while the technician did the procedure, which I'm assured doesn't

I brought my cat in for a check up at Lynden Vet Hospital after hearing good things about Dr. Berry. I was greeted by a very friendly staff and put into a room promptly. The vet assistant was very gentle with my cat who can be hard to handle at times. I also brought my cat in for a dental at LVH and again was happy with the experience; all questions were answered with detail and I felt as though the staff genuinely cared about my cats health.

John Berry and his staff are great. I have had 3 dogs go to this vet. The two oldest have passed. One 14 yrs the other 12 yrs. It's like a family member is gone. But Dr. Berry and his staff helped the family get through the loss of our small family members. Currently we another small member who visits Dr. Berry for shots and check ups. Dr Berry offers great services such as a groomer. Thanks Dr Berry and staff for your great service to our small family members with fur and feathers

Best veterinarian I have EVER been to.

I started going here after I adopted a rat that had a tumor. I did not know she had any health issues until I drove up to Vancouver, and noticed her tumor when loading her into the car. As I had just put one of my adorable ratties down less than a month prior due to inoperable tumors, I was very sad to discover that she had one.

However, I took her home and was determined to take care of the problem immediately. When my rat with the tumors (that I had just put down) became VERY ill, I called about 6 different vets in the Bellingham area, trying to find
