Forest Heights Veterinary Clinic is a full-service, small animal veterinary hospital providing comprehensive medical, surgical and dental care for dogs and cats. We provide a broad spectrum of diagnostic procedures through in-house testing and the use of external laboratories. We also work closely with local specialized veterinarians and clinics when special diagnostic procedures are required.
Forest Heights Veterinary Clinic has been healing pets in NW Portland for almost 20 years. We're a family and pet friendly practice. Our caring and experienced staff is dedicated to providing the the compassionate care your pet deserves. Forest Heights Veterinary Clinic is a full service medical facility providing services ranging from wellness care and vaccines to critical care and surgery.
Prevention is key to keeping your pet healthy, and we start this process with physical examinations. In addition to a complete, nose to tail, physical exam, we also take the time to ensure your pets' routine preventative care needs are met and up to date. Exams are a great time for you to ask the veterinarian any questions you might have about your pet.
Here at Forest Heights Veterinary Clinic, we are proud to offer state of the art diagnostic equipment such as digital radiography, digital dental radiography, ultrasonography, and in-house lab machines. We have the ability to run in-house lab work such as a complete blood cell count and general chemistry, which monitors the function of your pets internal organs.
We understand that your pets' surgical procedure can be scary! We strive to make surgery day as stress and fear-free as possible by educating you about what will happen while your pet is with us. Your pets' safety and well-being is our number one priority; therefore, we have stringent anesthetic protocols in place.

I did an insane amount of research on vets when we brought our golden retriever pup home this past summer, and from the very first interaction, I knew I made the right choice with Forest Heights! They are always willing to field my phone calls and answer my questions, they check in with us to see how Benny is doing after vaccines or other issues, and he always leaves his appointments happy and healthy. We live 45 minutes from the clinic, but I would happily drive double that distance to have my pup cared for by the team at Forest Heights.

I could shout from the rooftops how much I love this staff and Dr. Tomschin. After a very long nightmarish night in an emergency department I contacted forest heights. They got us in same day and came up with an action plan immediately and gave periodic updates. I expressed I was really unhappy with what happened at the emergency department and they made sure I felt extremely comfortable and well informed. We did a drop off visit (COVID and getting fit into a full schedule) and my pup was with them for several hours, and I finally felt comfortable enough to sleep. I knew he was in great hands.

Caring staff and excellent service. My husband had gone in to take our dog for an appointment on a busy friday while I was at home and my water broke and I called him to take me to the hospital. The staff let him leave our dog there while he went to get me and his parents came later to pick up our dog. This is one example of their excellent customer service where they went above and beyond. A few months later we took our dog to an emergency appointment at a pet hospital in hillsboro and they sent the records to forest heights. I had a call first thing the next morning asking how our dog was doing

I could not imagine going anywhere else. Dr. Mento has a third sentence for excellent care for my dog, remembers her name, and expresses not only love for the pets that come in but is incredibly careful and professional in everything she does. I recommend Dr. Mento and her team without any qualification at all

When our veterinarian of over three decades retired, we never thought that he could be replaced. Fortunately, my wife tried Forest Heights Veterinary Clinic on SW Barnes Rd. Our pug was eventually treated by all three of their wonderful vets. All three, and the staff, are wonderful. Their office manager is wonderful. We have nothing but positives to say about the entire clinic.
Sadly, our beautiful Zoe passed away last week. Their professional care and empathy was exemplary. I have been in private practice for over three decades (podiatrist) and I strive to practice at the same level of professionalism

I love this place almost as much as my dog. The veterinarians know their medicine, the staff is great, and overall a great experience. She has seen every Dr at the clinic; I really appreciate the level of care and attention from everyone there. My dog had a miserable skin rash taken care of in just one visit. Definitely recommend Forest Heights Veterinary Clinic.

We brought our dog here for the first time after relocating to the area from the Midwest. All of the staff from the front desk to the vet were kind and welcoming. The vet took the time to listen to our concerns about a new allergy our dog was having, and discussed other options before jumping right to medicating him. The vet and assistant took the time to get to know our dog, petting and giving him treats to make him feel comfortable. It was a great experience and we look forward to continuing our car with this clinic.

Everyone provides the best service, in the greatest caring environment possible. I always feel comfortable with diagnosis that are given me, and they go out of there way to make sure everything is explained in depth. They always take there time and answer all the questions I might have. They treat animals better than you get treated at your doctors office. I highly recommend them.

My 14 year old dog has been going here since the week I got him, and they have always been great with both of us. They're incredibly helpful, friendly, give great advice on available options, and obviously care a great deal about the animals that they are treating. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
