Northwest Veterinary Imaging

My regular veterinarian referred our cat Eddie to NVI for an ultrasound and samples due to suspicion of cancer. The clinic is conveniently located, has ample parking, a friendly and efficient staff at the front desk, and compassionate doctors and staff. Dr. Bassin kept us informed of the results as she received more information and made sure that we had a thorough explanation of the results and provided recommendations for further testing. We were able to get an appointment the next day and we’re given a very thorough estimate so that there we no surprises. I highly recommend NVI for anyone whose furbabies need TLC while not feeling well. ETA: sadly, we lost Eddie on 12/03/2023 to cancer that grew quickly. We miss him very much

They were able to get my cat in on very short notice, we emailed on Saturday and was surprised to see that someone responded despite it being the weekend! We got an appointment for Monday morning, and they called us very quickly with the results. The staff was very kind. Hopefully we don't have to be back for a while, but we will definitely come back if we ever need another ultrasound Mari says thank you!

Completely on me, I was late and felt horrible. The receptionist was extremely kind and professional and immediately calmed me down. I guess I had more buried anxiety about bringing in my dog than I realized. Thank you! Later, I spoke with the doctor. She was comprehensive, extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful, and compassionate. When you get bad news, it helps for it to be from someone who is both a professional and a compassionate human being. Thank you! I highly recommend Northwest Veterinary Imaging!

I never imagined I’d have to write a review like this, but pet owners deserve to know the truth about how Northwest Veterinary Imaging operates. Our beloved dog, Sealy, is fighting for her life. After weeks of persistent illness, we took every step possible to get her the care she needed—spending thousands of dollars on bloodwork, X-rays, an ultrasound, and other diagnostics. When the ultrasound revealed enlarged lymph nodes, the vet recommended a PARR test to determine if she has lymphoma. Here’s where this clinic’s appalling practices come into play: Despite already having the sample from Sealy’s lymph node aspirate, they had the audacity to charge us $670 just to send it for testing. That’s hundreds of dollars more than many other veterinary labs charge for the exact same test. They are profiting off of pet owners in crisis, exploiting the emotional and financial vulnerability of people who just want to save their animals. It is absolutely disgusting that a veterinary practice—one that should be about care, compassion, and ethics—would engage in this kind of price-gouging. What’s even worse is that they know we are already financially exhausted from doing everything we can for our dog, yet they offer no flexibility, no options, and no justification for why their price is so absurdly inflated. This isn't just a business transaction—this is our family member’s life. And Northwest Veterinary Imaging has made it clear that they care more about their bottom line than about the well-being of the animals they are supposed to serve. To any pet owner considering this facility: BEWARE. If you go here, be prepared to be taken advantage of when you’re at your most desperate. If you have any other options, I strongly urge you to look elsewhere for a clinic that actually cares about animals and their families. Shame on you, Northwest Veterinary Imaging. You should be helping families like ours, not making it harder for us to fight for the pets we love.

My dog hates the vet and requires meds. I was hesitant about dropping my dog off for the day because of that and expected my dog to need anesthesia. However, the staff were great and my dog was calm and at ease during drop off and pick up and they didn't need to use anesthesia. All things considered, I felt like the pricing was fair and more budget friendly compared to other places in the Seattle area
