    Ms Howes is the most loving and caring vet I have ever interacted with. I have owned cats on and off my whole life (mom was an animal lover, I got my own pet immediately after moving out)…..and across all the states I’ve lived in, and all the vets (emergency and non) that I’ve had to visit, I’ll say that this woman stands out. She was so careful with handling my kitty, she didn’t stress him out, she explained things clearly to me, and made sure to keep the treatment on the thorough but economical side. I didn’t feel any upselling pressure, and because of that, I will definitely be booking an appointment for my other adopted kitty. This will be their regular vet now. Office is clean. Front desk staff is friendly and very helpful. Barely any wait time. Treatment rooms are sparkling clean and look well stocked. Even the air vents look like they’ve been wiped clean. (Don’t even see that at UCLA hospitals!) No weird smells. Easy to park, not far from freeway exit. Highly recommend. Ten stars!

    Our vet for life! They have changed a lot over the years but all for the better. Took amazing care of Scooter and got him through many health issues. Good communicators and good app to track records and appointments. Care Club gets you access to the 24-hour emergency care in South Pasadena for extra piece of mind

    Workers here are nice, but VCA canceled direct authorization for third party pharmacy, so you are forced to take an extra visit and you have to personally mail in a physical prescription every time to your pharmacy in order to receive meds, which delays treatment, basically VCA wants to sell you the exact same thing for more money on the spot. Chewy offered to comp my expedited shipping on my pets’ meds because they think this is wrong for VCA to do. For certain highly specific meds and treatment, I understand, but for basic food and standardized preventative meds, this is stupid.

    I’ve been going here for a while now and am getting more and more frustrated with the call waits how I get hung up on after waiting for 10min... I understand the staffs are busy but I felt that I should at least write about it since it happened more than three times now. They really do everything right but a bit more friendliness over the phone and managing call waits (and make apologies if you accidentally hang up on people) can go a long way. I told the staff that I was hung up on after waiting for a while and she said “yeah, so what were you waiting about?” And the attitude that she was so busy to talk to me and can’t wait to hang up... That was very nice...
