Pet Pals: Animal Doctor for Wii puts the player into the responsible role of a young, warm-hearted and ambitious veterinarian. For the first time, players of all ages can bring the operating table right into their living room and enjoy a unique gaming experience. The Wii Remote simulates real veterinary tools as you use them to treat thirty different cases, ranging from minor ailments such as sunburn to severe injuries like broken limbs. Gamers will playfully learn to deal with responsibility, as they interact with animals in a virtual environment. Step in and have fun healing your favourite pets!
Though undeniably aimed at young girls, Pet Pals: Animal Doctor isn't the typical money-spinning software you may be expecting. Taking it's mark directly from the Trauma Center titles, the game is a complex mix of memory and speed challenges.
Mygamer writes: "Pet Pals: Animal Doctor sets the player in the role of a newly arrived Vet to a short staffed animal clinic. From this moment on, the player is expected to cure every single sick animal that comes into the clinic, regardless of the pet or case. While this sounds like a solid enough idea, the game loses entertaining qualities with long load times, poor learning curve, dated graphics, and poor controls."

"While at last year's E3 Pet Pals: Animal Doctor seemed like a promising game with some good concepts, it's clear to me that it should have been under development longer. The controls definitely needed improvement, the graphical aspect is a mixed bag and the sound is forgettable."
