Amazing staff especially Dana and Solly! The vets and staff are all so nice and helped my cats get medication even when we were on the road. They are truly the best

Dr. Salerno, Dr. Peterson, and all the veterinary staff put so much care into their patients, clients, especially with me and my senior cat. My cat is doing much better since being under their care.

I have been going to VCA Pacific Petcare for about 15 years. My dog (JP) has had some complex health issues. The staff have all been very caring , but Dr. Salerno has been absolutely amazing. My dog’s health issues have been complicated and extremely stressful for me. Dr. Salerno is extremely knowledgeable and thorough. She treats my dog with love and compassion. She has been working closely with my dog’s veterinary dermatologist to figure out the best way to treat him.
I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Salerno. She’s the best vet my dog has ever had. My dog loves her and I feel like he’s getting the best care possible. Dr. Salerno is awesome and I’m very lucky to have her diagnose and treat my dog.

My dog has been seeing Dr. Aybar for the longes time. Dr. Aybar is patient and really cares about your pet’s wellbeing. But recently I took my kitten in for his first wellness exam. It was a different doctor who came straight recommending me to feed my kitten Purina, a brand that contains corn, rice, and soybean meals as the main ingredients on the list. I started to doubt how professional and ethical their practice is. Just a heads up for everyone. I don’t think I will continue having them as my kitten’s primary care provider if we can’t see Dr. Aybar.

Amazing and quality service. Dr Aybar is the most professional and knowledgeable vet I have ever had the pleasure to meet. She explains everything thoroughly and with grace. She didn’t push for treatment that I didn’t feel comfortable with, and she showed me the cost of everything as we were discussing it. She provided different treatment plan options and gave me all the information to make an informed decision. On top of that, she follows up with her patients. The VCA staff are incredibly sweet and personable. I’d recommend them 100x over. They take great care of my animals!
