I have used Dr Lee a very long time. Has to be over 10 years. We love him and his staff so much that we drive from Buckeye for him to take care of our little man.

Justine Hamilton

We have been coming here for years as they truly care about every pet they have the pleasure of meeting. We moved to Surprise and it's worth the drive to bring our babies here!

We just wanted to write and thank Dr. Lee and his staff for taking such good care of us today as we brought our dog Beauty into your office to be put down. It was a very emotional time for all of us as we had Beauty in our family for the past 17 years, esp hard on my son who was 1 when we got her. You all went above and beyond and got us an early appointment as soon as my husband called. You were very kind to us and took us into a private room, so we could grieve in private and gave us our space to make the tough decisions that we needed to make. Dr. Lee was never pushy and let us make up our own minds and then told us how it would work. I just wanted you to know how much we appreciated the way we were treated in such a tough time for our family. Again Thank-You-

Julie Parrish

Very pleased with the care we’ve received for our Beau. They’ve been able to work us in several times when Beau needed to be seen right away. Dr. Lee and Dr. Bower really take the time to listen to pet parents and they are very caring with Beau. Highly recommend!

You will not find a more caring, compassionate, or knowledgeable vet than Dr. Derek Bower. He has taken care of my dogs for many years and has guided me through the ins and outs of ear infections, diabetes, cancer, and Vestibular disease, to name a few. I have adopted many senior dogs, so we've had our share of health problems to address. Dr. Bower has been there to help us through all of them.

Dr. Michael Lee is the BEST VET IN THE WORLD. I moved from Chicago to Arizona and back again. After a few years I moved back to Arizona and Dr. Lee and his staff are one of the top 4 reasons I came back to Arizona. I have had dogs all my life and have been to many vets and Dr. Lee is the BEST VET IN THE WORLD and his staff is so caring and sweet and knowledgeable. Did I mention that Dr. Lee is the BEST VET IN THE WORLD?

Our two large elderly male yellow Labs have been patients at AMCDV since we moved to the area in Nov. 2016. The guys have always had top care, and that's continued at AMCDV on routine, complicated and difficult treatment issues. The professionalism, from front desk to techs and vets, is most impressive, reassuring and helpful, as is the consistent high quality of service, from equipment and lab capabilities to treatment rechecks and phone followups. In their visits to AMCDV, the dogs definitely know they're in friendly, capable and caring hands, as do we. AMCDV's an outstanding, truly personal practice, which we've not hesitated to strongly recommend.

Ken Minneman

Very good vet. They care about animals and will check up on their patients

Cheryl LaFollette

Dr. Lee has been out vet for many years. All appointments have been 5 STAR! He's loving, gentle and caring no matter what we were there for. Simply the best.

Janal Pauley

Great friendly staff and services.

Darrell Lumpmouth

Called for an appointment for a sick family pet. Kind staff got us in asap. Dr. Bower is outstanding. Our poodle is much better now. We are lucky to have this family run veterinarian group in north Phoenix and Glendale

James David

Caring staff and willing to answer all questions. They even do follow up calls for routine matters. UPDATE-What great staff and care. They provided wonderfully for our yellow labrador Spice up to her last day. They were so caring and respectful and have a great package for private cremation.

Allison Clatone

Super helpful and friendly. Fit us in last minute for an emergency and were very caring.

M Perron

I have been going to Dr. Lee as long as I have lived in AZ. I moved here 10 years ago with two dogs and a cat and the transition was hard as both dogs were a bit older. Dr. Lee cared for my pets as if he had been with them all their lives. He always provided the best care possible, along with great advice. He show not only his patient great care, but compassion, empathy and concern for you, the owner. His love for animals and the pride he takes in running a great establishment shines through as soon as you meet him.

Marni Patterson

We've taken our cats to Dr. Lee and Dr. Ford since we moved to Phoenix. If we moved across town, I'd still consider bringing them here regardless of the distrance. Both doctors are great and the staff is wonderful. Our former cat had kidney failure and they did everything they could to find a way to help her survive. Unfortunately, she wasn't responding to the treatment. So, we finally had to "say goodbye." They were extremely supportive and even sent us a sympathy card. I've recommended them to several friends and neighbors and will continue to.

Bobbi de Haan

I would recommend this office without reservation! The doctors have impressive credentials and are conservative in their treatment. They are always cost-conscious and up front with the charges. In addition, communication with the pet parents is thorough and understandable. Affinity for the pets on the part of the doctors and the veterinary assistants is immediately obvious; they handle the pets with care. The services provided go beyond what the usual vet's office does. Believe it or not, they even make house calls! Let's not forget the front office! The office staff is capable, friendly, efficient and made us feel comfortable as soon as we walked through the door. Their scheduling process is such that waiting time, if any, is short. They also do a great job of follow-up. Take a look at their website. You'll be impressed!

Cami Lattomus

Recently took our beloved pet in for surgery and everything was a success. She an older dog so we of course we were very worried about our sweet pup. I know they take good care of their patients and our dog was treated with tender loving care. Doctor Bower is always very responsive with results and follow up questions and treats our pet with gentleness and concern! Thank you again to everyone at AMCDV We all love you! Especially Sugar!

Linda Jacobs

Dr Lee is wonderful. Takes time to explain things. Very thorough. I like the staff too.

Nancy Worrell

I have a small dog and take him to Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley. When I moved to AZ, I started taking my former little dog there (more than eight years ago) because my daughter had taken her three cats to them for many years. She now has two dogs and continues to praise them highly and I do also. In addition to being excellent veterinarians, the doctors and staff are very good people ~~ sensitive, patient, engaging, and genuinely interested in our welfare...friendly, warm and very efficient.

Steph Palagi

Dr. Lee and his staff at the Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley are the most amazing group of kind, caring, and compassionate people I have had the pleasure of doing business with. My family and I have been taking our fur babies there for 12+ years. Thank you, Dr. Lee and staff, for ALWAYS taking care of us and treating us like family.

Mike Wimble

Great Vets. Probably some of the best in AZ.

Jenn Rhoades

Dr. Lee has been our vet since we moved to Phoenix, back when our dog Roxy was just a few years old. He and Dr. Ford have been life savers many of times throughout the years. They have always treated Roxy like she was their own. Last week we had to say goodbye to her after 16 and half years. It was the hardest thing we've ever had to do! Dr. Lee came to our home and Roxy was put to sleep in my arms surrounded by our whole family. It was the most peaceful experience and it was all due to Dr. Lee. We have a huge spot in our heart for this amazing man who loved our dog just as we did. Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley treats you like family! We would never go anywhere else!

Judy Laska

Love you all! My Luna had what I thought was an ear infection. You got me in same day and Dr. Bower helped me understand it was a bacteria infection. She is doing better with meds and cleaner! Thank you all!!!

Jill Thompson

I have had Dr.Lee for over 15 years and can not say enough about how good he and his staff have treated me and my dogs. They r really great.

Becky R

I take all of my pets (both dogs and cats) to Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley. I love Dr. Lee, Dr. Ford, and all of the staff. They remember all of my pets and are compassionate and sensible. I have a cat that needed medication every day for 2 weeks and I could not handle it alone. So every day, I would take him to the office and they would administer it for me. I feel very fortunate to have found them and if I moved further away from the office, I would travel to keep my pets in their care.

Kari Battles

We love Dr. Lee and the staff at Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley. We have taken our dogs to him since he opened his original office over here in North Canyon Ranch. He is knowledgeable, trustworthy and caring. He truly loves animals and his profession. Everyone there helped us through a very difficult time when we lost our Lucy and their compassion will never be forgotten.

Donna H

Good avaiability so you can get an appointment when you need it without waiting weeks. The staff is very courteous and Dr. Ford and his tech were very knowledgeable about my dog's issues. They diagnosed and treated the problem right away. I will be using this group from now on.

Edith Williams

We have been clients since we moved to Arizona 14 years ago. The care is extraordinary and the staff does everything to help. Wouldn’t go anyplace else.

Rachel Adams

I LOVE Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley! The entire staff is amazing. Dr. Lee has performed two intensive surgieries on my dog, and Dr. Bower has seen her multiple times for multiple issues. The technicians and office staff are amazing, too—so helpful, so kind and obvious animal lovers. I never feel like I’m being upsold treatments or tests that aren’t needed. I’m never on hold on the phone for an extended period of time, and I’m always seen on time for my appointments. The office is always clean. After both of my dog’s surgeries, the office followed up multiple times in the days following. Becky is always so patient with me when I’ve called her (sometimes multiple times in a day) worried about my dog’s recovery or with questions after her surgeries. I recommend them to everyone I know! I’m so, so grateful for their care, knowledge and heart. Good people!

Maggie May McClelland

Love Dr. Bower!!!

Brandon Kubiak

Dr. Berman & staff are exceptional! During the worst possible experience with a pet, it was evident that Dr. Berman and staff truly cared about us and our pet. I confidently recommend Dr. Berman and Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley.

Monica Archer

We have been taking our dog to Dr. Lee for years and won't go anywhere else. Dr. Lee is so nice and compassionate. When my last dog had to be put down, I only trusted Dr. Lee to be the one to do it.

Lisa Harvan

The staff at Animal Medical Center are excellent! Dr. Bower is a very compassionate Veterinarian and I feel comfortable taking my pet for care here. I have never experienced such great service and would never take my animals anywhere else.

Cindy Baker

I appreciate the care that this clinic has given to my Kiki kitty. The entire staff is excellent and Dr Lee is the most caring Doc that I have ever had. Kiki has AIHD and diabetes so she is in need of special care, which they give. Thank you! Do not hesitate to choose this clinic.

denise lopez

I have been bringing my little tally to dr. ford and dr. lee since she came into my life and would never take my precious girl to anyone else. I have had emergency situations in the past and with one call have had them immediately tended to. The entire staff is compassionate, considerate and highly skilled. They follow up every visit with a call to see how the patient is doing which I love!! This is home base for tally and all of her health needs and i am grateful that The Animal Medical Center Of Deer Valley is always there for her.

Sheilah Lavelle

Dr. Lee has been my vet for many years and I know him to be skilled, compassionate and just a wonderful vet and an equally wonderful man. He keeps up to date on changes in methods of caring for various illnesses. My dogs love him. I have not had any experience as yet with Dr. Berman. I no longer allow Dr. Ford to care for my dogs for reasons that I will not discuss. Despite issues with dr. Ford I give this facility 5 stars because of Dr. Lee and the rest of his staff. They are wonderful.

William Kynast

Great, Professional staff. They genuinely care about your pet.

John Mulkey

Dr. Lee is a great vet. The entire staff is very friendly. They love pets.

Mike Giaramita

Has been my vet for the last 10+ years and a couple of different dogs. The staff is very knowledgeable and nice.

Jon Wilson

I have been taking my dog to this vet since 2003. It had always been a great place to take your pet until recently. The staff is very knowledgeable and has always seemed nice especially Dr.Lee. Our oldest dog was given 2-3 weeks to live and 2-3 months on an expensive group of meds. We opted to buy a month supply at vet to see if it helped, it did great. When it came time for another month of meds we found them for half price online. We requested vet to call in the prescription and they told us we now need an expensive blood test before they will call in the prescription. :( disappointed

Leyder Ness

Love this vet!

L Sandell

Dr. Bower is awesome, the staff is too! I really appreciate the genuine care and service I receive for my puppies. I have recommended Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley to all my friends. Thank you Dr. Bower and staff all for all you do!

Jordan G

Great and friendly staff. Fully trust the care of my dogs to them.

Judith Burley

The whole entire staff is excellent. Never have to wait long. Techs are very attentive and appear knowledgeable. Dr. Bower is great with both my dog George and my cat KC.

Jill Mirza

Dr . Lee is hands down the best veterinarian on the planet! He has been taking great care of my labs since they were puppies. Our "puppy" is now 14 and is doing well thanks to him! Great staff, great place, best vet EVER! I recommend them to everyone I know!

Connie Flowers

You are all very good and knowledgeable and we love bringing our pets to you. We know they get the best care possible. All of our animals like everyone there and that's saying a lot. Thank you ❤️

TC Makin

We have been taking our dogs to Dr. Lee since the office opened years ago. They are so good and caring. I honestly have never had such a great vet. I wish Dr. Lee was an MD and was my doctor, he’s just the nicest guy. Dr. Bower too, he is always great with the dogs. The staff is all very good and professional as well. Love this place!

Sherry Ray

I wholeheartedly recommend the staff and physicians at Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley. I cannot say enough about their comprehensive assessments, knowledge, expertise, and compassion.

Todd Welfelt

I've been bringing my dog here for years. The doctors and staff are always friendly and helpful and they go out of their way to put my dog at ease. Prices are reasonable and I can get most prescriptions right there on site which is super convenient.

Terri Whichard

We have always recommended Dr. Lee and staff to all our friends with animals. We have been seeing Dr. Lee since we moved here in 2001.

Marsha Claunch

Dr. Lee is absolutely wonderful with all my four legged babies. His staff is exceptional also.

Kelly Arbogast

There was no improvement needed. You all took great care of Bear and us. Thank you!

Paula Vayda

Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley has really impressed me! I've had dogs all my life, and over the decades, have seen many different veterinary offices. The staff here is very dedicated to all. I am especially appreciative of Dr. Bower who is such a straight shooter and honest about my boxer, who has cancer. He has performed surgery on my Jax, and has guided me in realistic future treatment options. Every appointment has been thorough and never feel rushed. I have recommended this place to many friends!

Jason Huber

I have been taking my pets to Dr. Lee and now Dr. Ford for probably 10 years. They used be located just down the block and now are in my daughter's old Pediatrician's office. The staff is always friendly and courteous even when my older dog had an accident on the scale. When it was time to put down Guinness Dr. Ford was very kind and helpful for my daughter and I. We did not hesitate to bring our new pup in immediately after adoption and the result has been fantastic. The new pup had a few issues that Dr. Ford diagnosed and treated quickly. You look for someone who is knowledgeable, kind, and that will take the time required with you and your pet. These guys and gals do that. I moved farther away from the office and have many more vets closer to me now, but I will travel the extra time just to speak with Dr. Ford.

Jeff N

Great staff that really love animals. My dog loves going there, and the vet really is thorough in his checkups.

Dave Toczek

I have been with Dr. Lee for years,and I will not go to other any place.He rocks.The time he takes to help people understand what's going on with their pets, if problems arise is awesome.

Lanette Nelson

This place is amazing. Dr Bower and Dr Lee are great. They take time to listen to your concerns and to explain treatment plans and what is best for your pet. They are kind and caring. The staff is fantastic. They are friendly and caring as well. So happy I found AMCDV and a plus is they are so close to me.

Sarah

Animal Medical Center of Deer Valley has been our preferred Veterinary for many, many years. The entire staff is helpful and everyone cares about our pets. They never fail to follow up with us after an appointment to see how our pets are doing (dental cleanings, injuries, etc.) following a visit. We love Dr. Lee and and the entire staff.

Carla Wandelt

We went for a routine check up for our dog but we have been taking our pets there for many years and love how they treat us and our pets. They are thorough, not pushy and compassionate.

Pam Dunphy

Having to put an animal down is an extremely difficult decision, to have contradictory information given is terrible and basically very unprofessional. Called to find out information about an euthanasia one day and called to make an appointment a few days later to be told, the dog would need a full exam and it was going to cost a $$$ dollars more. Drove the extra miles to a practice who understood the caring needed to all.

Brockton Remo

I really liked the veterinarian, but the staff is highly incompetent. They seem to have difficulty or perhaps just have no interest in following up on very basic things, so therefore I can't trust this office with my pet's health.

Coach Terri

For more than 20 years I've made the decision for Dr. Lee to take care of my furry kids. I lived in the area of the office when I started with Dr. Lee. Since then I've moved quite a distance from the office. It's never been a consideration to go anyplace else. Through all the stages Dr. Lee and the good people in the office have been there for us. I would recommend Animal Medical Center of DV to anyone.

Kerry Stutzman

If you are looking for a dedicated, caring, humble and well-educated Vet, then look no further than Michael Lee at Animal Medical center of Deer Valley. He has cared for our dogs for several years and we just love him. He has provided excellent outside referrals when needed and handled our dog's end of life care with such dignity and compassion for both the dog and our family. It doesn't get any better than Dr. Lee. The staff are very friendly and caring.

Patricia Labedz

always great care!
