    I had my rescued dog spayed here at there low cost clinic and they were fabulous. Today I picked up my poorly drawn portrait and there was nothing poor about the pics at all. Loved the Pics and so grateful for all of the work you're doing for the fur baby's across the Coachella Valley. Keep up with your amazing work, your essential for all of us because we're nothing without our companionship of our pets. Great Fundraiser

    Excellent Veterinary Ophthalmic Specialty Care My dog's wonderful vet, Dr. Peter Henein at Palm Springs Animal Hospital, referred us to Dr. Pamela Ko (at Animal Samaritans) for specialty ophthalmology care. Dr. Ko was fantastic. She took the time to thoroughly explain what was going on with Gracie's eye and patiently answered all my questions. She performed a complete exam, which included advanced diagnostic tests to ensure we understood the underlying issue. The level of expertise was evident, and much appreciated. I highly recommend Dr. Ko if your pet has an eye issue. We are so fortunate to have such great veterinarians here in the Desert.

    I had to take a moment to thank Dr Ko, their ophthalmology specialist. I recently lost my Romeo suddenly last week, he had turned 16 in October. In the summer 2023 he saw Dr Ko after his eye wasn't getting better after two vet visits. Dr Ko was so angry at his previous care and hoped her treatment would save his eye as he was too old for surgery. Well she prescribed 4 meds plus eye drops even one to save his good eye from getting an ulcer. It was a rough 6 weeks as I had to get up in the middle of the night to give him the every 8 hr meds. I made a spreadsheet to keep track and showed her at his next visit. I must say she was impressed. By that next visit Romeo got much better she saved his eye and now I'm more appreciative than ever that he spent his remaining months with good eyes, well he was mostly blind but he wasn't in pain. I'm just so grateful to Dr Ko and her amazing knowledge and kindness.

    Jasper goes to the doctor!

As it our first time finding a new groomer here, we found this place. Spoke with someone regarding booking and it was quite easy. They were able to get in us first thing in the morning at 9. When we got there, a little earlier there was also someone waiting with their little ones. Once we checked in, the gentlemen behind the register was the sweetest. The warm greeting and the usual detail exchanged made the process very easy. Jose was the groomer, believe that was his name. The sweetest and welcoming. The usual chit chat on what we wanted and that was that. The place looked well kept and clean. I believe you're also able to bring your pup in for a bathing as well. The quick introduction, instructions and explanation and we were on our way. It's located in a strip mall off the main strip so you could also get all your errands done. Of course some things were done while we waited. It was about an hour and half till it was time for pick up. They do text/call to let you know. The place was great and the staffs were all very friendly and professional. We did feel welcome which is alway a plus everywhere. Pricewise was good. I believe it's based on size and what services maybe needed. Obviously if certain things is needed, then additional fee is added on. Jose was a doll and very sweet. Took very good care of our little one. Seemed like we may have found something new here.

Yes, the building is nice, modern and clean but what really makes this place amazing is the staff that work here. I'll forever be grateful for the support and compassion they showed me during one of my hardest moments in life. Rewind: I'm actually not a local and was traveling here from out of town. I was staying in the desert for a few weeks so I brought my dog and cat down with me. In the most stressful of scenarios (traveling and being on vacation) my 13-year old cat fell ill almost immediately after we got into town. After a few days of her seeming not like herself and not eating, I brought her here to the urgent care. A few hundred dollars later and testing it was confirmed that my little one was dying (This wasn't a complete shock as she had been diagnosed with kidney disease a year before with a prognosis of only a few weeks to months to live.) You just never expect to be away from home when something like this happens.... The biggest blessing was that the doctor and techs encouraged me that I could take her home to have a couple more days to process the decision of putting her down/to see if there could be any improvements (even though it wasn't likely.) Having those extra couple days to say goodbye made the process so much more bearable and assured me that I wasn't making a rash decision... when you see your pet declining you know when it's time. I was just really grateful for how the team was so compassionate and flexible with me as I made this decision. While they were all professional, they felt like friends when I needed them most. Bringing my baby back to be euthanized on a holiday weekend was traumatic, but the team handled everything with grace and compassion. They have a special room where you get to say goodbye to your baby and it is very tranquil and lovely overall when dealing with such a tragedy. At the very minimum you would hope for a safe space when enduring something so difficult and they definitely created that....Again the team couldn't have been lovelier. They see these kinds of things every day, but they made me feel like I mattered. The whole process was expensive, but at the end of the day I would do anything for my animals so it just comes with the territory. Looking back, it was worth every penny to make an informed and educated decision and with how well everything was handled from start to finish that I'm so grateful for this team. I hope you find yourself here under less painful circumstances, but I am here to say that this is an amazing urgent care and the staff are A+.
