Mountainview Veterinary Hospital is great! Dr. Boggier took the time to listen and explain everything at our visit and was super attentive to our dog. The technicians and front desk are amazing and super helpful, I even received follow up calls. I have never been surprised with a fee as they are upfront with explaining what everything will cost.

My 13-year-old dog was given two vaccinations (Bordatella & Lepto) at an annual visit on a Friday… then they died on a Monday! Dr. Terri Schneider examined and took her blood. I was told her heart murmur (2 out of 6) was steady just as previous years. I explained to the doctor I didn’t want my dog to be given too many vaccines as she had a terrible reaction the last year. The Dr. Schneider said “we will give her some Benadryl to help her tummy and hold off on the Lyme disease vaccine. My dog still lost her appetite over the weekend. She became lethargic and vomited twice. Monday morning, after she vomited a second time, She experienced a syncopal episode. I had to perform CPR. When she came to I took her to an emergency vet hospital in Whippany. More bloodwork & tests there showed that her heart declined to a 5 out of 6. I was told she had Pulmonary Heart Failure and fluid in her lungs. I am convinced it was the Vaccines that caused her breathing problems and her RAPID DECLINE. That Stupid Dr. Schneider killed my dog!! Don’t vaccinate your dog(s)!!! Make sure you ask why a vaccine is necessary,…Oftentimes they are NOT!!! They are just out to make money!!! The worst part was later on that Monday, Dr. Schneider phoned me to say my dog’s bloodwork came back and that I have a perfectly healthy pup! WHAT!!!???

Our dogs get great care here. We see Dr. Schneider and Dr. Katara. We trust them completely with our pets. The staff is kind and efficient. Dr. Katara performed surgery that enabled our girl to live longer than expected. Dr. Schneider was very comforting when it came time to say goodbye. Our girl passed peacefully. We are grateful to everyone at MountainView Veterinary Hospital.

Dr. Boggier and her whole team are incredibly amazing. Of course we expect and receive top level care….but to do that AND do it with compassion and an obvious genuine care for our pet….you don’t see that anymore! Best vet in the area!

Amazing experience! I brought my dog for a 2nd opinion on a dental and alleged fatty mass removal (diagnosis from 1st vet) that needed to be done. I brought my dog in she was examined and the veterinarian aspirated the mass and fatty yuck came out so it was determined it was just fatty. My first vet didn't even do an aspiration she just said it's probably fatty but won't know until we cut her open. My dog and I felt more comfortable a better vibe at Mountainview than our original vet so even though prices were about the same and Mountainview is a good 30min drive for me Mountainview is where she had her procedure. Her mass turned out to be way more serious then any of us anticipated. With this surprise the surgeons at Mountainview fixed her. My original vet said the mass didn't necessarily have to be removed cause sometimes it goes away. The veterinarian at Mountainview suggested we do removal just because of its location and the dog being a small breed could interfere with activity. I'm so happy I chose them they literally saved her life! The staff was very proactive about avoiding infection due to the location of her incisions. They provided me with cleaning solution and how to clean the Incision properly. It was several weeks recovery. We went for our last checkup Monday. She's doing amazing. Runs jumps back to going for long walks started ripping her toys again and eating harder foods (she had 9 teeth extracted) The vet was pleased with her outcome as was I. I have nothing but great things to say about Mountainview and would recommend them to anyone. The staff is amazing and sooooo nice makes you feel so comfortable and they truly care for the animals.

i really liked coming here and have been a client for about 2 years now but i will be looking for a new local vet. i pre-paid for a urinalysis and fecal test about 3 months ago but did not realize (and do not recall being told) that i needed to bring the samples within a certain amount of time.. so i show up with urine today while getting my dog’s nails trimmed and now i’m being told that i will have to pay another $90 to have it tested even though i already paid. i understand this is apparently the labs fault but i am extremely upset as this is predatory behavior and i feel like i’ve been stolen from basically. i refused to be charged double for the same test ($180) so i’ve now also wasted my time getting urine for my dog who hopefully has no issues since it won’t be tested. this is horrendous customer service. the very least the vet can do is provide some kind of credit.. i spent over $500 the last time i was here and now over $100 of it was for nothing.

When you love your pet so much you are willing to drive an hour to see a Vet you know you can trust. My old vet washed their hands of my two and a half year old Lola and said there is not much left to do but surgery. Dr. Elizabeth Boggier has already proven to be the most knowledgeable, compassionate Vet I have met with a bedside manner like none other. She has offered options to treat Lola and for now it seems to be working. What a fantastic experience from such a professional, courteous staff. Thank you for treating my baby girl.

They have no idea what they are doing!!!10 month old puppy, was too much for them to handle?! So unorganized. Waited forever. The doctor was rude and argument

Our hamster was experiencing hair loss, and Dr. Katara was kind enough to see us and treat our little guy. Dr. Katara was extremely patient, took the time to listen to our concerns, and was helpful in supporting our hamster. I highly recommend MountainView Veterinary Hospital.

I have been coming here since I've moved into the area. They are hands down the best vet office. They are accommodating, kind, and wonderful. They answer all the questions we have and were able to fit us in during two emergencies we had with our pups. I could never take my puppies elsewhere. They treat both of them with such kindness even when we all know they can be brats. Thank you for always taking care of my little family.

Thank you mountainview for 12 years of love to my baby tequila . I can’t say enough good things or thank every single person enough for the love she felt and care she received throughout her life. Since day one as a puppy dr. Boggier saw her and loved her til her last day. The days are hard without her but the love she received I’ll always remember. Thank you Dr. Schneider for the love and amazing care for both Jill and Jenny everything you did for them increased their lives tremendously. Losing Jill in March was hard then even harder losing Jenny and tequila not even 24 hours apart. Jenny and tequila grew up together as siblings from babies and they went together as sisters they couldn’t handle being apart from each other :(Thank you to Dr. boggier, Dr. Schneider, Lauren, Danielle, abrille, Nicole, Brianna, Lisa, Jessie, Shannon, and every single person who touched the heart of tequila.Thanks to a lot of love and amazing care from you we were gifted with 8 extra months of love and memories after her cancer diagnosis .All I had to say was tiki were going to see your favorite girls at the vet and her ears perked up and she danced around waiting to go. Tequila was the biggest part of my heart and I’m forever thankful she got to experience such love from her vet.

Been coming here 10 years with our oldest dog Molly and we also bring our other dog Daphne here. Highly recommend. Professional, will squeeze you in and they try to be cost conscious whenever possible.

Our dog had an emergency which required surgery and thankfully Mountainview was there to help when our usual vet was closed. I never knew of them before I had this emergency and was desperately googling - and a bit panicked about entrusting him to “strangers”! But Mountainview did a great job, start to finish; we received one price for surgery, meds, and all follow-up care, which was very reasonable (and amazing)! My dog ended up rupturing his stitches (because he’s a maniac LOL) and they repaired, rebandaged and rechecked endless times, plus added laser therapy to speed up his wound healing- without ever charging me for anything more than a few $ for additional medications. The entire staff was super-friendly and professional, and Dr Bossier kept me well-informed throughout the surgery and the following weeks of healing; she even sent me photos & a detailed explanation of the wound repair immediately post-op. My pup healed up nicely with zero issues, and we had a great experience, start to finish. I would highly recommend :)

Dr loftin is one of a kind. She is caring she is compassionate she is reachable at all times. She cared for our cat and our dog. Anytime we need anything she drops it all to discuss. Truly a gem veterinarian and amazing person inside and out

There is no place that my wife and I trust more with our Zuke. We feel so safe and confident in every single dealing we have with Mountainview. Dr. Boggier, Dr. Voight, and the entire staff are wonderful. Everyone goes above and beyond. We can't say enough about how we feel with Zuke in their care, and we couldn't be more thankful to Mountainview Hospital.

The staff at MountainView Veterinary Hospital was very welcoming and friendly. This was an emergency visit, and we were able to see a doctor within 30 minutes of calling the hospital. The doctor was attentive and professional. Our cat is feeling much better. Thank you very much!

To be completely honest, we walked out so we didn't even get the chance to experience their profession. I'll explain, and you can make your own judgment based on your own experience.We just had baby kittens from a stray we took in not too long ago, and two of the litter had bad infections in their eyes. We called around for emergency visits and eventually stumbled upon Mountainview. They told me there was a 920am appointment and we had to pay the emergency cost. I told them I'd call back if we could make the cost of the emergency visit work. We eventually decided it was the best option for the kittens and took the spot. We rushed over 30 min away to get there and eventually arrived 10 min late. It was raining and we have never traveled with 10 day old kittens before so it was stressful. We finally get there, and there is one person in the waiting room. I check, I'm, fill out paperwork, and they tell me to sit. I have 2 of my kids with me and my wife. 30 min goes by, and the kids start getting rowdy. We calm them down, and I see people leave, but we remain. Mind you, this was an emergency appointment - we had to pay $220 just to be seen. These Kittens are nursing kittens, and they didn't even take into account they needed to be back with their mama. We kept sitting, and now it's going on 1030a. I went up to the front desk to figure out when we were going to be seen. They said it was an emergency visit, so they couldn't even give me a general idea. They also stayed, and they double booked their emergency visits, so it was even longer. That's when I went outside to start making calls. Eventually, I was able to get a hold of a vet closer to my home, and they could get us in basically by the time we go there. They didn't charge an emergency visit price. They looked at all 4 kittens, and overall, we got the medicine we needed, and the kittens are finally on the mend.Again, I can't rate them off of their service - but their office staff, although nice, created a huge problem for a family in need. My experience rates them a 2. They could have been more upfront, courteous, and professional.

I’ve really enjoyed taking our cat Remy to this veterinary hospital. I can’t really say if the prices are too expensive compared to other places (as some reviewers have mentioned), but I’ve been pleased with the care, so I haven’t questioned it and assume it’s fair. I usually have to bring our cat to his appts with my two toddlers - I usually brace myself for some displeasure from staff, but it was quite the opposite. I found everyone from the Dr. to the tech to the front desk to be really compassionate and patient with me and my family. I can get anxious when it comes to my kittens and they made sure we were comfortable and to accommodate us when able, which is greatly appreciated. Our cat unfortunately has feline asthma, but I’m grateful this was discovered promptly and that we can begin a treatment plan. I appreciated the time that Dr. Bossier, Danielle, Allison, and especially Jessie (who talked to me for a good 15 mins about a treatment plan for our kitty) gave us. And I certainly appreciate how patient and kind they have been to this mama with her toddlers. Thank you and we look forward to our continued relationship 😺

Best vet ever. Great staff, very caring and knowledgeable individuals whose primary concern is your pet. They also provide a petting zoo for the annual town festival free of charge.

This is the place to take your pets. The doctors are great the staff is great they all make you feel like your family. The will accommodate you whenever possible. The doctors don’t rush the appointments they take their time and make sure you know exactly what is going on with your pet. I am so thankful I chose Mountainview Hospital for the care of my pets .

Awesome team of caring professionals at MountainView! They are always very responsive to all questions and concerns whenever I call or email them for advice. I have had only positive experiences with multiple doctors in this office. The assistants are also so knowledgeable and show genuine concern and care for the animals that walk in their hospital. I also feel that the prices are very fair, never felt pressured into spending more than I felt was necessary, and I have even had them advise me on alternatives that would save money on my visits. Excellent office all around!

This place is disappointing after going there for years. A year ago today my 15 year old dog Kasey came in for routine shots.Dr. Schneider told me she can get bordetella and distemper at the same time. Then I remembered Kasey gets an allergic reaction so she gave a Benadryl shot and jabbed it in her back. I saw Kasey jerk back. When I was on my way home she started screaming and having what looked like a stroke. I rushed her right back to the vet, she was lifeless and couldn’t stand.We had to put her down. I called Dr. Boggier for weeks after and she never returned my call after years of taking care of Kasey with pancreatitis, bladder cancer, anxiety, etc. I was showed no compassion from her or a call back.I would stay far away from this place. The only reason it has 1 star is because of the vet tech Lauren, who was great and compassionate and stayed by my side.My new puppy will never go there and that’s a shame.

Amazing, Compassionate, Highly Professional Group! I, Little Guy (aka Stray) could have been written off - a street stray found when I was very sick. They worked with me and my family, tried a variety of things to help me through some very difficult times and look at me now! RAWR! Couldn't have done it without the care of the entire staff, Dr B and Dr V and everyone else!!! Thank you! Love, Little Guy

What an amazing end to a horrible experience. Our families dog Sky was attacked by a neighbors dog. We really weren’t sure what to do or if she needed medical attention. In the end we decided to bring her in to Mountainview. The staff was incredible, so friendly and they really made Sky comfortable and took great care of her. It was quick and easy. She didn’t need stitches but had a puncture wound that they cleaned out and gave antibiotics so it wouldn’t get infected. This is now Sky’s new home for all her medical needs. I highly recommend MountainView in a emergency or just to have your fur baby cared for. Also prices were so reasonable. I am so happy we chose them in our time of need. Thank you guys keep up the amazing work!!!

If I could give a zero I would! Bella has been a patient since we rescued her approximately 10 year ago. However, when she really needed them, they were “too booked” to see her, turning her away without even an assessment or basic life support services like an IV of fluids. Gave me a flyer for someplace else and wished us luck. Would never go back and if you care about your non-human family member, find somewhere else now before your situation is critical.

MountainView Veterinary Hospital is the best. The doctors are amazing and the techs and office staff are very friendly. My dog loves going to the vet. She feels very comfortable and is thrilled with the attention and love from everyone. She also knows she gets her treats at the end. I like that the vets listen to what you have to say and offer options for treatment. At this past visit, an x-ray was a possibility, but the vet suggested that we wait for the checkup in ten days and then see if the problem still exists. It's nice to know that they are not just trying to 'pad' the bill!

Our experiences with Mountainview have been wonderful. All the doctors take their time and genuinely love our pugs. They take the time to explain what's going on and discuss all options of treatment. They techs are extremely hard-working and show our dogs so much love. Staff working at the front desk are friendly and efficient. Everyone is passionate about working with animals (and their owners)! I could not imagine going to another veterinary office. Keep up the great work Mountainview!

AMAZING STAFF!!! We had an emergency with our dog and couldn't get him seen at our regular spot, and they were so kind to take us, close to closing time, and were absolutely incredible. The whole staff is extremely caring, genuine, and overall the most pleasant group of people you'll ever meet. They made our dog comfortable and took amazing care of him. This is the only place we will take him from now on!

A true gem in terms of a veterinary practice! MountainView by far is the best place we were lucky enough to discover when we had an emergency with one of our dogs and they were able to take her in under their Urgent Care. Our previous vet practice that we had gone to for many years was taken over by VCA and all went downhill not to mention the two vets we had used left that practice. The staff and vet techs were professional and courteous. We were extremely impressed with Dr. Terri Schneider who was kind, compassionate and most of all so knowledgeable in terms of her assessment and diagnosis with our dog. We're happy to say that they gained yet another new client with us!

Dr Schneider and all the staff here are wonderful. Our new, very shy and timid rescue dog had a great visit. All of our questions and concerns were answered and they made our dog feel very comfortable. We started with them 2 yrs ago when we adopted our other rescue dog, and he has also received great care and patience from all the staff. I highly recommend them.
