  Dr Lavac saw my dog Bruno today for a wellness exam. It was our first visit here and Dr Lavac took his time to thoroughly examine Bruno and answer all my questions. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. Bruno and I both felt very comfortable. I would highly recommend this VCA!

  I just met the kindest, most compassionate vet (Jessica Baron, DVM) and staff members that I have ever met in my life. Of course anyone that cares for animals is already amazing in my book, so this is saying a lot. From the moment I called about my sick rescue dog needing to be seen ASAP, we were treated with the utmost care, concern and urgency. They all seemed happy to be there to help, even though it was a Sunday morning. Once we arrived Dr Baron and her medical assistant were so gentle with my dog while they performed a thorough exam. Everyone here exuded genuine kindness and concern for Buddy while they also calmed my level 10 stress and fears. Emma at the front desk gave me lots of great information about their insurance/health packages and even suggested a nice diet that will be helpful for my dog. I was a bit in shock when I arrived, so I didn’t catch everyone’s name, but everyone was 100% top-level amazing! If you need a vet for your pets I highly recommend Dr Jessica Baron and the team at VCA, 2421 Wilshire Blvd, Santa Monica, CA 90403. Thank you for getting Buddy in today, for the help and for the thorough (yet very gentle) exam. We will see you again soon.

  Absolutely great! I have a young hamster and he chewed on some bad materials where i could not get him, next day I was gone, and on saturday morning I have noticed lots of blood in his cage. I called every place on google and none of hem work with small animals. VCA Wilshire has an emirgency, they picked up right away and said to come in an hour! Living in Westwood it was easy to get there! That was Easter weekend 2015!!! Doctor Jim checked him and calmed me down. He prescribed antibiotics which I came back for with hammy on Easter Sunday! A week later he is doing good. I am from Russia, and I got used that in us lots of places are closed on the weekend. VCA Wilshire animal hospital truly love and care about their little clients and they work every day of the week! Thank you so much!
