Bellevue Animal Hospital has been serving Eastside dogs & cats since 1955. We've provided generations of families -- both human and furry -- the individualized care they need, from wellness exams to dental care, ultrasound and house call services. Our goal at Bellevue Animal Hospital has always been to assemble a veterinary healthcare team committed to providing exceptional client service.
To that end, our team is skilled in performing anesthetic procedures, like animal dental cleanings and spay or neuter surgeries. We offer comprehensive veterinary care, including a wide range of diagnostic tools like ultrasound, digital x-rays and in-house laboratories so your animal can get everything they need all in one place.

Services
Dr. Gerard grew up in Bellevue and has a long history with Bellevue Animal Hospital. He attended Bellevue High School, graduating in 1988, and has always called Bellevue his home. Dr. Melanie Gerard has a long history of working to promote animal welfare through providing high quality veterinary care in a variety of settings.
One of the most important parts of your pet's ongoing healthcare is an annual wellness exam. This visit allows our veterinarian the opportunity to carefully assess an animal's overall health and identify disease in its earliest stages. Our hope is that we can see your pet year after year, becoming familiar with all of their individual conditions.
Just like us, our pets need regular dental care to stay healthy and happy. By the age of 3, most cats and dogs will have developed enough plaque and tartar to require some extra help keeping their teeth clean. So how exactly do our pets develop various dental diseases?
Specific kinds of bacteria normally found in the mouth, combined with the animal's food and their own saliva, will lead to the formation of that film on their teeth that you're likely familiar with yourself.Without proper brushing, that plaque will mineralize and become a hard coating that we refer to as tartar.

Ultrasound is a noninvasive procedure that uses high frequency sound waves to produce a real time image of your pet's internal organs. Bellevue Animal Hospital is pleased to provide this diagnostic service in-house so that your animal can receive the kind of care they deserve all in one place. We often think of ultrasound as a tool used to check on the progress of a pregnancy in an expecting mother.
There are countless benefits of using digital X-rays to diagnose specific problems with your pet's health. The speed and detail provided by digital radiographs make them a convenient and highly accurate diagnostic tool. Depending on an animal's symptoms, we may suggest performing this test to identify key causes of pain, swelling or other signs of disease.

We love Bellevue Animal Hospital. Dr. Marzullo is fantastic! My senior beagle is a frequent visitor at BAH, and they treat her as if she were their own pet. She can get a little rowdy (as beagles do), and they always roll with it. I appreciate that Dr. Marzullo knows the science but takes time to explain issues and procedures in “regular people” terms so we have an understanding of what’s going on. My only “complaint” is that different vets practice on different days, and with the uptick of animal owners (thanks, pandemic!), it can be difficult to get an appointment if you’re partial

I had an outstanding experience here getting the paperwork for my dog to move with me overseas. Harley, the Practice Manager, took what was an immensely stressful experience and handled it with warmth and total competency. She was responsive, caring, and attentive to details. I had total confidence every step of the way that my dog and I were in good hands. The rest of the BAH team, too, was kind and thoughtful every time we came in. I happily recommend their services.

I’ve dealt with this clinic multiple times concerning my bosses dog and not once has it been a pleasant experience. The first time the woman who took the dog was rough with him, rude, and didn’t seem to care about the details of what was wrong either I believe her name was Michelle or something. When my bosses dog was returned he had a major bruise/swelling on his neck I’m assuming from someone prodding with a needle but we dismissed it which was a mistake. The second time the dog was returned with bandaging on his leg from a heartworm test and again bruised and swollen. I don’t think these

Sue was very disrespectful. She would not let me schedule an appointment at the time i needed because i had to call to reschedule a visit which was for the same time i was requesting. I told her i will go elsewhere then she hung up on me.. I will be calling and filing a complaint with management about her. I will also be taking my business elsewhere. Very unprofessional.

In August, my 11 year old dog was having bloody diarrhea and was not responding to antibiotics. She was seen and diagnosed with pancreatitis. The proper treatment was administered right away and she recovered within a week. And last week, she went in for her stem cell treatment, cyst removal, and dental. Dr Min was super professional as usual. The staff was also very kind to my dog. Please be patient with the staff as they are all overwhelmed.

We are very happy with this practice. Both Dr.s Gerard and Dr. Min are wonderful. They cared for our labradoodle through end of life care, and now support our Great Dane puppy and 3 cats. Located where they are they could be extremely expensive, but they maintain reasonable costs. The desk staff (we know Thomas and Sue) are so friendly and truly interested in the pets. And the vet techs are awesome.

I moved back to Bellevue two years ago and have been so pleased with the care at Bellevue Animal Hospital. When my Boomer crossed the bridge in January 2019, it was a sudden and heartbreaking time, made much easier by Dr. Melanie and the staff at BAH. I continue to take my other senior dog there and the care remains top shelf and I'm grateful for such a wonderful local vet to call on when needed. I can't say enough great things.

Very skilled and caring staff from the front desk to the veterinary technicians and doctors. They take the time to fully explain diagnoses and treatment options, and give a lot of personal attention to the patient (and patient parent(s)). Although my pup, Macie, is not a fan of medical visits, I completely entrust them with her care and am so appreciative of their TLC.

Thanks to Bellevue Animal Hospital and Dr. Gerard for caring for all of my dogs. I also appreciate all of the love and care that everyone has given our Golden Maui. He turned 4 today and it’s because of this hospital that he has made it this far with his epilepsy and other plethora ailments he has had.

Dr. Melanie Gerard and her staff saved Twitchie’s life! Twitch got an infection after surgery with a different veterinarian. Bellevue Animal Hospital went above and beyond nursing him back to health. It took several days for his fever to break. The staff was so friendly every time we came. Dr. Gerard and her staff saved him! We are so grateful for everything they’ve done!!
