Ive been bringing my pets to Dr Hunt for over 25 years. His love for animals, and dedication to his clients, is apparent with every visit. He has been there for my animals and for me, when it was time for a check up, an animal was sick, or when it was time to say goodbye. I cant thank him enough for all he has done for us!

Dr. Hunt really spends a quality amount of time with your pet & pet owner. He is knowledgeable & explains things in a way that is easy to understand. I really enjoy that these days!

After we had our dog neutered 2 days ago, he got his stitches out and needed to be seen. His regular clinic was full and unable to see him. I called this clinic, and while the doctor was heading out for the day, he offered to stay and look at our dog for us. I was impressed with his willingness to help and knowledge that allowed our dog to get new stitches and antibiotics so quickly. Thank you!!!

Dr. Hunt has done everything from checkups to surgeries on my cats throughout the years; he is top-notch, compassionate, and very reasonably priced. I am so, so pleased with this clinic. :-)

Great attention to detail and care for your pet. But... like most doctor visits, sit for awhile waiting and takes some time before he gets to you.

Gilligan who is our new golden retriever puppy was treated royally. Gilligans’s brother Buddy has been also well cared for by Dr Hunt and his staff for 9 years. We keep coming back. We brought our 2 West Highland Terriers there in 1996 and haven’t ever gone anywhere else. We have always felt our pets were in the best of hands and we as pet owners were well educated by the entire staff. I have recommended neighbors and friends and they love Dr Hunt and his hospital/clinic.

I don’t know if this still happens, but the last time I brought my dog in, the doc spent 15 min examining him and 45 min trying to sell me snake oil. He showed me pseudo-science videos on his phone from YouTube, claimed it “cures MS In mammals,” and effectively stops the aging process. I don’t know, maybe the doc had a bad day? The other reviews on here are good, so maybe I’m alone in this. Weird experience, but my dog is fine. 3/5.

I had a wonderful experience! I havent been a pet owner for a few years so Dr Hunt took the time to go over all the necessary information with my new kitten. You can tell he really cares about the animals in his care and their owners.

Our dogs have been going to Dr. Hunt for years. We’ve never had any issues with Palomino Pet Hospital. The only time we couldn’t deal with them for our dogs was when our dogs needed major surgery other than that our dogs will always see Dr. Ron.

I have been bringing my pets to see dr. Hunt for over 20 years. He is always been very knowledgeable, friendly, and caring. He always spends a good amount of time evaluating your pet and talking about the care that is needed. I find him very knowledgeable and helpful in all situations. He was especially compassionate when we lost one of our cats. The time he took spending with my husband coping with the loss was exceptional. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Have seen Dr Hunt for close to 20 years. He has taken care of all our veterinary needs. He has been there for us when we had to make the difficult decision of saying goodbye to our four legged family member. He and his staff have always been friendly, confident, knowledgeable and caring !! We appreciate Palomino Pet Hospital and staff !!

New to the area, we found Dr. Hunt at an outreach event with the community. Thank goodness we did, because our last vet did not find the thick plaque on our dogs back teeth. Dr. Hunt was able to completely remove it without using anesthesia. He has such a calm demeanor and is so knowledgeable, but also relatable (to animals AND humans)---my dogs teeth are clean enough to star in a commercial now! But more importantly a clean mouth contributes to overall good health. Well be staying with our new vet!

After we got our dog, we visited two clinics, this being the second one. We stuck with this one because everyone, from the assistants to the vet, will explain and talk through everything to you, and explain what they provide, and what your pet actually NEEDS. Super friendly, and usually have specials going on for heart worm and flea/tick control.

The vet there knew what he was talking about, and doesnt try to sell you things you dont need. Both of our dogs are healthy and they take good care of them. They are gentle to the animals, know how to treat them, and are professional about the whole process.

This vet was near my new residence. The fact that they were close to me is the only positive thing I can say. I had just adopted 2 dogs from a shelter. I wanted them to have a check-up as advised by the shelter and was told they offer them free for adopted dogs. My appointment was at 2:30. The girl at the front desk had multiple phone calls and was not able to check me in for about 10 minutes. I waited in the lobby another 10 minutes before I was shown to a room with my dogs. There were no other clients there. I waited another 10 minutes in the room for the same front desk person to come in and look over the paperwork (which I had to explain to her) and then go back to the vet and then come back and start recommending services needed. I stopped her and said I just came in for a check up. The vet came in and tried to shame me in to getting services for my dogs that they did not need. He went on to tell me how a responsible dog owner would not be in a hurry and he likes to spend an hour with new dog owners to teach them about caring for their dog. Mind you, I have been a dog owner my entire life. My dogs have all lived long and happy lives. It was a very unpleasant experience. I will drive 20 minutes to my old vet and would not recommend this vet to anyone.

Dr. Hunt is wonderful and has been so helpful over the years.He must be good to work for as a bunch of his people have moved on toschool to become Vets, he always has good staff.We have had to ask a few hard questions and asked them to go aboveand beyond the call of whats considered normal over the years (nothing big, things like our 160Lbs Otis past away and they close in 2 mins. but they stayed open 40 mins. longer so we could bring him in - stuff like that) and Palomino Pet Hospital has always risen to the occasion like champs.Thank you Dr. Hunt for all your help keeping fur babies healthy and helping us say goodbye when we must - Your good people, thanks.

Love this place. I was new to Minnesota and needed a place to board my dogs while I traveled. I stumbled upon this place by luck, and they were fantastic! Both dogs HATE when I leave, but they never seemed to mind leaving me once they got here. The girls were so sweet, and I know they were well taken care of. Thanks again, Palamino Pet!

I lost my dog 3 years ago but this was her FAVORITE VET! she was terrified of men and when we moved to this location he was the cloest to our home. When we told him how terrified she is of men he understood completely and when he walked into our room he put on the most sweetest stoft tone voice for my beagle. She was totally conflicted becuase here is a man with a womens voice but oh man did it help. He had done so much for my dog to the point where when it was time to say goodbye to her he was just as upset as we were. Once i’m ready to get another dog i WILL be taking him/her here. I have never had such a great vet.

I really like Dr. Hunt. He takes a lot of time. When my dog had dry-eye he knew who to refer me to. During a serious illness his nurse called frequently to check my dogs condition and offer support.

We have a relationship that we value very much with dr. Ron and his staff. Our dogs are a little high maintenance, and have some health issues so the patience, understanding and advice is always greatly appreciated. Very caring approach...

Review №26

My dog got sick and took her to this clinic, the doctor gave me the wrong medicine and ended up getting an allergie all over her body, later on she started getting seizures and sadly passed away. I hate the doctor and I think hes the one who killed my dog and wouldnt recommend, coming to this place if you dont want your dog to get sick because the doctor is trash and doesnt know any thing about dogs and hes dumb his last name is hunt.
