My dog Abby has been going to see Dr. Sandel for the past year and a half, and we've been very pleased and impressed with her professional treatment, with the office's responsiveness to questions, with the way they handled COVID, everything. Thankfully, we haven't had to have any expensive procedures thus far, so I can't comment on that. But otherwise we've been very happy here.

We have been taking our 1 year old lab here since he was a puppy. He has had problems from irritated skin to allergies to possible intestinal blockages. It seemed as if he was always in the vet for a different reason every week. The staff at Northfield has always made us feel so welcome and would get him in last minute if it was urgent. And Dr. Shelly Sandel has always made us feel great. She is so trustworthy and always is there to help us with anything. They provide the best vet service for your pets and I would not recommend any other vet in the metro area.

Always friendly and professional! Dr. Shelley and Dr. Lai are both knowledgeable, gentle, and appropriately conservative with treatments. Basically, I never feel like I'm being pressured to do unnecessary treatments for my pets. We sadly had to put our former senior pup to sleep and the office was so kind and considerate during such a heartbreaking experience. 5 stars for Northfield Vet hospital!

Northfield Veterinary Hospital has amazing staff. They have taken excellent care of both of our pets (dog and cat). They were wonderful when our old cat began declining. They providing the most meaningful experience when we had to "send him over the rainbow bridge." They couldn't have been more compassionate.

I have been taking my dogs here since they first opened. I love all the staff from the vets to the vet techs to the receptionists and everyone in between . I never once had a bad experience. They truly care about the animals and their human counterparts. In a profession that is very demanding and many times emotionally and physically draining, you’d never know it by the attention and concern they show each of my animals every time. I wouldn’t take my nuggets anywhere else.

My dog Mo absolutely LOVES Northfield Vet. When I rescued her from Mile High Lab Mission, I asked for vet recommendations and they mentioned Northfield. Since then, we drive across town to Northfield. The entire team is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and most importantly, welcomes Mo with a smile. They’ve helped me in a pinch, and always are accommodating. My childhood dog was terrified of the vet, now Mo pulls me towards the door of Northfield. Thank you for always taking care of Mo!

Whenever I go in there is such care and a feeling of warmth and professionalism. This last time both the tech and the vet made me feel heard and understood- I did not feel pressured or pushed to make any decisions but very honored. It was a great experience and it always is here. I highly recommend this clinic.
