This is the only veterinary clinic that truly helped us find the cause of our dog’s illness and saved her life. Before coming here, we went to two other clinics where we were charged extremely high fees, yet they gave us no diagnosis, no real solutions—just excuses while taking more and more money.
Here, the experience was completely different. The team was professional, compassionate, and genuinely cared about helping our dog. They charged us a very reasonable price, yet the level of care and service was outstanding.
Thanks to their dedication and expertise, our dog has fully recovered and is now happy and healthy again. We are deeply grateful for your kindness, professionalism, and for giving our beloved pet a second chance at life.

I can't say enough good things about the staff and vets here. Since day one, we've been treated with kindness and understanding. They feel like a small operation even though they have a big name behind them. They are always quick to answer my questions over the phone, and no problem with my pups is too small for them to tend to. Incredible people!

i had them as my vet for my loving dogs for over 25 years.since then i have moved out of california. they are the best of the best vets for your animals. i can not say enough about them but since i left california i really miss them for my animals.one of my dogs they saved her life over chewing gum..one of the ingredients in gum is zylatol. it is a sweetner they put in many different products. back in the days it was just coming out as a threat to animals. i did not hear about it but my one dog got into gum as she had before. i called the vet just to be sure as she chewed a few sticks. more than usual..they asked me to bring her in just to check her out. well had i not takin her to them she would have died with in hours. they kept me calm til i got her there so i wouldn't have an accident on the way and then rushed her to the back.. then told me about this awful awful danger of this zylatol.. she was basically one of their first experiences that had eaten this. i will forever be grateful to them for saving my mocha's life. don't ever doubt as they are the best in the world and so loving and caring for our wonderful animals..i will always be grateful to them..

We've been going here for about 6+ years and have received services for everything from pet urgent care to nail clipping. Prices have been fair - not the cheapest I've seen, but we get a good value thanks to their thorough and consistent service. I never feel like I'm being oversold or told I have to purchase certain products or services. My appointments are usually quick and painless and we're in and out for exactly what we came for. I appreciate that my vet has worked with me when it came to some of my more specific requests (ie. I went in not wanting to over-vaccinate my dog, so she suggested testing levels for certain vaccines before deciding to proceed with the usual vaccine update schedule for some of the optional vaccines.)
They offer Saturday morning appointments which is great for us full time working folk, and I love the new option for online scheduling of appointments. Sometimes I remember that our dog needs an appointment at 2 in the morning, but will forget to call in to make the appointment the next day - with the online scheduling, I can request my appointment time at 2AM and get a confirmation later that day. Very convenient!
