Services
Looking for a caring veterinary team to keep your furry friend healthy? We think pets play a very special role in a family! And at Pacific Veterinary Hospital, we consider our pets to be our babies too! At our full-service Portland, Oregon companion animal hospital, we treat each and every pet like they are our own!
Pacific Veterinary Hospital is proud to provide the pets and families of Portland a full suite of veterinary services, seven days a week. Our Portland veterinary professionals use state-of-the-art technologies and equipment to provide the highest quality care for your pets. We know that your pets are an important part of your family and will treat them with the utmost integrity and compassion.
It's essential that we understand what is ailing your pet before we treat them. Pets can't tell us what exactly is bothering them, so the Portland veterinary team at Pacific Veterinary Hospital uses the latest technology and state-of-the-art techniques to diagnose your pet. Since we're able to diagnose what's ailing your pet quickly, we are able to treat them faster and get them back to living their happiest, healthiest lives.
Just like humans, our pet companions sometimes need emergency treatment. This can be due to accident, injury, or sometimes just from the sudden onset of a possible serious illness. We know how important it is to get these valued members of your family access to immediate treatment, and our compassionate team will work closely with you to devise a plan that works best for your pet's unique case.
When you're thinking about your pet's health, it's easy to forget about your pet's teeth. Like humans, pets should receive regular dental care. At Pacific Veterinary Hospital, we make it easy by incorporating dental checks into your pet's wellness exams. However, if your pet hasn't been in for an exam for a while, your pet could develop periodontal disease.

Very nice staff. Getting an appointment anywhere is hard right now but they were able to see me the soonest which was super helpful. Checked everything that needed to be checked for my cat and answered all my questions. Dr. Frost was very kind, thorough, and gentle with my pet.

I've been taking my pets to Pac Vet since the '70's. They always have wonderfully competent veterinarians and staff.

They don't follow-up on appointment requests on their website. If you set a time online they won't call you. If you show-up at the appointed time they'll tell you at the window its a month wait and refer you to other providers. They're nice but they don't want new business. I was going in to get shots and talk about a treatment plan for my dog - I'll take their advice and go elsewhere.

I thought everyone was so professional, efficient, friendly and kind to my little dog. They helped show her their instruments before checking her. They had her x-rays sent over from the emergency vet we had gone to the weekend prior to seeing them. They drew blood to check and I brought in urine to check the next morning. They are very thorough and called me with the blood panel results the next day. Thank you for all you do.

Dr. Budden's treatment and accommodation was greatly appreciated! Dr. Budden called us back after his shift and suggested we drop off our dog so he could see her the next day between his surgeries. When we were concerned about the aggressiveness of the recommended treatment and cost, he suggested we take the treatment in steps and see how our dog progressed. Dr. Budden is very caring and clear in his directions and recommendations. The staff was also great and caring.

Stay AWAY from this place! I brought my dog for an emergency and they refused their services because I need to have an appointment! I am regular client and I will bring my dog for his vaccines and appointment but not anymore!

Pacific Veterinary Hospital is full of wonderful people who takes extraordinary care of clients and their companion animals. Even during the pandemic they are 100% operational and safe. I can't describe how grateful I am to have brought my cat to them. I needed an international health certificate, which requires lots of paperwork, legwork and signatures, and I'm extremely happy they were patient and helpful with the process. Many thanks to Dr. Wikander and her team.
