Reviews of Rainbow Pet Hospital (Veterinarian)

Ashley Scarlett

Doc is awesome and really cares about the animals. Reasonably priced. We take our dog and cat.

Christopher Jones

This clinic truly cares about the health and well being of the animals they treat. They are not there for financial gain but to give their clients and their pets the best care possible. Great staff and well kept facility.

Angela Pyper

My Great Pyrenees Kane needed his annual check up and shots. Dr. V was excellent as well as her techs. One female and a male. The male tech was very strong. My dog doesnt like getting his shots.

Ford Inbody

I wouldn't bring my pets anywhere else!

Nancy Marcy

Rainbow Pet Hospital is the kindest, most efficient & knowledgeable veterinary practice I know! I've been going there for 30 years, even after moving 20 miles away.

Mike Galvan

Very good vets

Alex Hess

I LOVE Rainbow Pet Hospital! The vet and staff truly care about your animals. You can tell they are interested in making sure pets get the care they need by offering everything at an affordable price. All of the products they sell are at a lower price than even 1-800- PET-MEDS. Above all the vet and staff are knowledgeable and offer the best possible care for your four legged family members. I am so glad I found them for my two dogs!

My Dorkie boy, half Dachshund and half Yorkie, will be 14 on the 23rd of February of this year. In his advanced age he has developed some intense allergies that effect his skin. I have been trying to find a vet that could help make him comfortable and was reasonably priced. I am so happy I found Dr. Overeem and her team. She was very thorough with Eeyore, and is extremely competent. I feel like she really listened to me and my concerns while being very gentle with him. The doctor came up with a plan we are very confident in and I believe will really improve my fur baby's life. I have no doubt she will be Ore's vet for the rest of his days and if I ever get any other pups, they will be patients of the Rainbow Pet Hospital too.

Best veterinarian in the area. Cares more about your pet than anything else.

The vet was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating, but unfortunately the assistant was extremely rude to me before my appointment even began. I had asked if I needed to bring a urine sample with me and was told no. I have a dog who was a rescue from a breeding facility who would not go pee for the assistant, and the assistant was obviously frustrated by this and rolled her eyes. I told her she had just gone to the bathroom and she replied “Well why didn’t you bring a sample or stop her?” while rolling her eyes again. I explained to her I was told I didn’t need to bring a sample when I asked when setting my appointment. She condescendingly stated “Well if you’re doing a urine analysis, you kind of need, you know, urine?”. I was able to get my pup to provide a sample but was extremely disappointed by this lack of customer service. My pup is also super anxious due to being a breeding dog before we rescued her and I felt like I was accused for her lack of socialization and anxiety. I have had her for 3 months and she lived in this facility for her entire life (4 years). She has come along way in those 3 months, but still has a long way to go as we continue to work with her and train her. The care for my pet was good, but I felt like the customer service overall was lacking, which is disappointing when I am paying the bill. I felt like I was treated like I did not care for my pets appropriately, when I have been a crazy dog lady my entire life. The staff was sympathetic of my dogs needs, but did not try to relate with me or provide customer service for me whatsoever. Like I said, the vet was extremely knowledgeable which I’m grateful for, but otherwise the service was extremely lacking. I don’t know if it was just a bad day because there a tons of reviews commenting about how friendly the staff is. I wish I had a better experience!

Glenda Staats

The vet and other employees are great with my pets and me. Polite and courteous.

Paul Ricci

If your looking for a professional, caring and friendly office this is it. Very budget friendly, nothing fancy, but our animals are only looking for a doctor and staff that truly cares about them and isn't trying to sell additional services and products. I can't say enough about how great this place is!

Jimmy Luce

This is a great hospital to take your pet to do not pass this up

Chantelle Denett

Always amazing! Years ago before I had dogs, I was in a terrible situation taking care of my mom's digs while she was in the hospital, Nate was unbelievably helpful to a complete stranger on the phone & helped me immensely. When I moved back to KC with a dog, I knew immediately where I would go for all care. Always friendly & helpful. Rainbow Pet Hospital should always be your choice for pet care

William Dalton III

Great place to take your pets.

It's been almost 2 years since my original post (see below) and I wanted to add what my subsequent experience with this pet hospital. We had sibling kitties that were getting old and had thyroid and other issues progress as they neared the end of their lives recently. Dr. Overeem, or Doc as we now call her, and her partner Tracy, are hands down the most compassionate and caring, competent expert caregivers I've ever experienced in my 45 years of having cats. The staff has always been kind and thoughtful., too. We called many, many times for advice, last minute emergency appointments, and sometimes what turned out to be false emergencies but were always called back by Doc many times much later than office closing time. Things can be touch and go with older cats but Doc and Tracy never turned us away. Always and tirelessly caring, compassionate and accommodating. Just truly amazing. One visit was a super cold day with howling winds and minus teens chill temperature outside. Upon leaving I had to make two trips to my car because I use a big airline dog carrier for the two cats. Before I could get back inside for my cat and carrier, Tracy - with no coat on - is at my car door with the cat and carrier (about 30 awkward lbs) just to help my younger body not to make an extra trip. Truly appreciate these lovely gentle people and the compassionate help they give day in and day out. Doc works her butt off!! They both do!! Doc has super steady hands and did all procedures like drawing blood out of tiny cat veins, taking blood pressure, etc. Amazingly, costs are super reasonable, too. Doc personally euthanized our two elderly cats within 6 months of each other. Doc had a tear and hugs for us. My husband and I love these two so much and can't thank them enough for their loving care of our cats and us, too. As long as we have cats we will continue to drive from Red Bridge for all our pet health needs to Rainbow Pet Hospital. Thank you Saved my cat's life. My other vet didn't do a complete blood panel opting for only using in house less accurate equipment that showed kidney failure after keeping him on too high a dose of thyroid medication. Rainbow Animal Hospital sent my cat's blood sample out to a lab and this showed different results than my old vet. Rainbow stabilized my cat and decreased thyroided medication and my cat is doing so much better. My old vet was treating for a false diagnosis that was killing him. So glad I found Rainbow through a friend! Thank you Rainbow team.

Excellent staff and care. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Also buy my dog food at same location.

EBopp Music

This place was recommended to me by two different people who are both serious animal lovers. I now know why. I brought my baby here because after his long 20 year life it was time for the next stage. I love him very much and the process could not have been any smoother. They also offer cremation. I appreciate the compassionate service I received and will be bringing my 2 year old cat here for care from now on!

Don Tabor

My trusted veterinarian since 1987. I trust her unequivocally.

Preston Montgomery

Found a lost dog, we took him here. They scanned him. Gave him water/food. Great people. We found the owner and it worked out well.

Mandy Dufour

Staff is very sweet and polite. Answer any questions I have. They take very good care of all my pets. Absolutely love this place.

roger lear

Great friendly service! If they have to pick between you and your pet they’ll pick the pet.

Nelson Umana

Friendly Staff

Chelsea Monahan

They are always able to accommodate us at the last minute for our 2 dogs' emergencies and accidents. Staff always recognize us humans and our dogs, and the dogs don't freak out when they get there. Very reasonable prices as well.

I rarely write reviews on Google but truly felt compelled to share my experience due to the consistent incredible service I have received at Rainbow Pet Hospital. An avid dog lover, I went to Dr. Overeem before I decided to adopt my black poodle Ziggy from a shelter. Free of charge, a staff member gave me all the information about the breed's characteristics, possible future medical issues and answered all my questions. After adopting, Ziggy has been a patient at Rainbow Pet Hospital for over three years now. They were incredibly understanding and patient of the anxiety issues my dog initially came with as well as some serious medical problems. Doc and the staff were able to properly diagnose a hereditary kidney disease and literally saved my dog's life by recommending and putting him on the proper kidney diet. When my dog got tired of the chicken flavor, they custom ordered a bag of liver flavor and even gave me a discount on the food. The staff goes way above and beyond to make sure you feel taken care of despite the heavy workload. They have been super attentive with me and Ziggy, have recommended financing options and treat me and Ziggy with so much love and care. I also love the fact that the hospital is a one stop shop for medical care and food but also dental work. They just finished Ziggy's dental cleaning and it all went great! Thank you for the tireless work you do daily for all our pets and treating them like your own.

Rainbow Pet Hospital offers decent care at decent prices. I will say all of the other reviews that mention staff being rude are definitely accurate. We brought our cat here on several occasions and were talked down to, as well as the vet herself being quite condescending. We work really hard to take great care of our cat (grain-free organic food, always up to date on vaccinations, never ever outdoors, etc) and do not appreciate the condescending manner. Other reviews have replies that essentially say "Sorry, it was a really crazy day!"....but I can attest that the several times I was in there-- on not busy days-- the demeanors were the same. The staff needs to take on a more diplomatic manner when dealing with their patients and their owners. Since then, we have switched to Union Hill and have nothing but shining things to say about them. Great prices, will squeeze you in if they have time, and are so so so kind. You can tell they really care-- and they take the time to make sure their patients know.

Michael Whitt

Great doctor and staff. Over two decades of dependable and thoughtful practice. Moved north of river ten years ago but we make the drive because we know and trust rainbow pet hospital.

stephanie henderson

Dr. Noreen Overeem is an amazing veterinarian.

Janet Sublette

I can't explain how great this office is. They have Always seen my pets in emergency situations and never turned me away. They truly care about your pets and understand the fear or concerns a client may have. Great Vet office, I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for a vet.

Customer Service

I was at rainbow pet hospital with my dog yesturday and I notice that this pet hospital has a lot of good reviews unfortunately my experience there wasn't any pleasent. We saw three people there only one of them was very nice at the front desk I wish I could know her name the other one was very roude specially the doctor who saw my dog, A dog will bark because of the simple fact that he is a dog also when they are not familiar with the place or people trying to put a piece of rope as a muzzle on a big dog and pushing people when they are trying to help and it was very obviously she was annoyed by the barks of the dog. If they can't handle their job they should consider other aptions I will never go back to this hospital ever and will definitely not recommended anyone to take their pets to this hospital.

Anna Gates

Dr. Overeem gives great care for a great price. I kept my pups with her even after we moved to a much further away location in the metro.

Darklordofcats de Vore

They go the extra mile to make you understand fully what is going on and all your options and they are so down to earth and relaxed.

Steve schraml

Been awhile since I have been in the store

My niece's 11yr old toy poodle Ebony came down with a bad case of pyometra diagnosed by an emergency clinic last night. Needed emergency spay surgery asap. I read reviews and told my niece to call rainbow pet hosp. She's a full time student with a part time job. Rainbow pet hospital told her it would be a $2000 surgery (for a spay mind you). So she calls Koch-Stigge in hometown of Harrisonville. They told her $400 for the test, spay, antibiotics etc. Thank God for Koch-Stigge! They had an appt for Ebony at 3pm this afternoon, they just confirmed diagnosis of pyometra (the dangerous kind that's closed) and they're going to have her in surgery this evening. They will have her under professional observation and care until end of day tomorrow or next morning. Instead of taking a $1600 advantage of a desperate person with an innocent dog on it's deathbed, they've done everything to help Ebony and my niece. Its good to know there are still vets out there who are in it to truly provide care for our innocent little animals as well as humans for a reasonable rate. Just not this place!

Amy R

I have taken my beagle to two great vets prior to going to Rainbow Pet, they found nothing wrong with her. But I knew there was, she was lethargic and bloated like crazy. Rainbow pet discovered the ottoman and now my 13 year old beagle is running and playing. Thank you thank you thank you.

Ric Almack

Remember when medical care was by a doctor who cared? Well at this vet you get just that kind of care. The Doc thinks in and outside the box. She is a realist, a pragmatist and one of the most caring people - your pets could not be in better hands. The staff if phenomenal too! They all make you feel like going there welcomes you into their family. This is a small clinic where you are NOT a number. The food is priced right and they are always expanding their services and knowledge. I just wish you could still find MDs with this type of dedication and personality.

Gene Ray

I am happy to drive across town for my pet care at Rainbow Pet Hospital. Fantastic personal care by a wonderful staff. I wouldnt go anywhere else!

janice carter

Doc. Noreen and crew are great from a long time costumer. Thank you

John Hornbeck

Friendly people who care.

Julie Tenenbaum

I've been bringing my cats to Doc and her staff for many years, and I'll be doing so until they retire or I expire. I know they care deeply about all the animals they treat, whether it's a new patient or one they've known for decades. I trust them implicitly to use their expertise for diagnosis and treatment or to give the best advice possible for home treatment. The fees they charge are so reasonable, it's obvious they do what they do because their hearts are in it. I can't say enough good things about Rainbow Pet Hospital.

Melody Alspaugh dba: Moonrise Pawstries

If I could, I would mark 100 stars for the wonderful care that Doc Overeem and the staff gave our kitty! He was on death's door and her knowledge and skills saved him; and he just got a clean bill of health! Doc and the staff are so friendly and compassionate too! I can't say enough good things!

Colleen Simon

I can not say enough good things about Rainbow Pet Hospital, Doc Overeem, Tracy, Stan and all the staff including the in house hospital cats. If you are looking for ultra modern - cold- inhospitable...well you are out of luck. But if you want an animal whisperer, a medical Dr. who examines the physical as well as the temperament of your animal - who just has been around enough to really know what she is doing - well you have found the right place! She doesn't mince words, mind you - but when you are trying to make life and death decisions, it really helps to know the facts. And when hard stuff happens - they are there crying right beside you and giving you a hug. I have never felt that the Hospital did anything to our pets that wasn't absolutely needed and the rates are better than competitive. Their Pet food is sold at a discount rate as well. You just can't beat the love and care that Rainbow and its staff will give your pets. I oughta know - we have 2 dogs and 3 cats - 1 of which we adopted from the hospital!

Nathan Johnson

Have had nothing but great experiance's. Been in KC for 2 yrs trying different vet's and I finally found a vet I like!

Debra McQueen

I can't say enough about how great Rainbow Pet Hospital is, the Doctor, the staff... all really care about their furry clients and their owners. I have been going to this vet since the early 1980's and she has taken fantastic care of my animals. If you want a vet who thinks of animals as a calling and not just a pay check this is the vet for you!
