I had a hard time finding an exotic vet in the area but was recommended to Dr. Balderrama by a friend.
I live in Port Townsend but it was well worth the drive and I’m now considering transferring my dogs to this clinic as well!
My beardies first vet visit went really well and cost less than I expected, I felt like they were very thorough and Dr. Balderrama came out and spoke to me for quite a while (I’m sure his time is limited so I was very grateful for this!) he genuinely seems to care about the health of pets as well as continuing his own education to stay up to date with current recommendations

So disappointed!!!!! Used to be a great place, but need to add to the 1-star reviews—similar to mine-ripped off!
Shocked! $120 bill for 15 min follow up appointment today. No clue it was going to cost that much! Thought maybe $40? Was told “I don’t set the prices,” by Dr. Lock, who could have asked Dr Waters, the owner-also there- to talk with me, but she just stood there. Obviously top priority is now $$$, also were unwilling to work out a payment plan. Then expected me to return in 2 weeks! THIS time I asked and was told it would only be $100! Seriously? I spent $550 two weeks ago for

My first experience was really wonderful . Front desk was very understanding and really helpful. Scheduled appointment to have my dog evaluated for some knee issue and have xrays. Xrays were not conclusive and additional testing was needed plus another set of xrays. Due to the nature of the injury I wanted the next appointment to be with the orthopedic vet owner as she does surgeries if needed. Called to confirm appt now and I asked if another set of xrays is really necessary because financially it’s hard to keep paying for X-rays twice. Well I waited 4 weeks for this appointment to be told now

Love this place! I mostly see Dr Lock and she's great with my anxious Great Dane, and my growly mixed breed. She's thorough and explains everything, and why she recommends things. The front end staff are great, and the technical staff are wonderful to my pets. All 4 of my animals went there until we moved. I've seen Dr Waters and Dr Balderrama and they were fantastic.
Highly recommend

De. Lock and her staff were sooooo nice to me and my dog. They were able to schedule a dental exam and extraction surgery in the same day when no other vet would. This was perfect because my dog hates riding in the car. No surprise fees either!

Front office staff are friendly and flexible, and Dr. Waters has been terrific, treating our dog like one of her own. This is a competent, friendly, humane practice and we feel fortunate to have found it.

The reception desk in knowledgeable and animal nurses genuine. You see one of two veterinarians and both are exceptional. Your pet gets a personalized experience here, they remember your name when you walk-in the door.

I moved to Bremerton a year ago to take care of my aging parents. The stress of finding a new place to take care of my dog, was something I wasn't looking forward to.
I was so blessed that I found Dr. Waters and her private practice.
Her staff is very loving and warm when they check you in. They all understand what it's like to bring in a sick dog. Dr. Waters and her staff are very experienced and loving. I will never take my dog anywhere else. Thank you so much for the attention you pay to my dog
