We called the hospital and the front desk asked us to call poison control center who later asked us to bring our dog to the closest hospital. Luckily the hospital is just 4 mins away from the downtown area. I was in a lot of stress so I'm so sorry I didn't really get the names of all the wonderful people that helped us. I was really overwhelmed knowing that my dog could go into seizure any minute, and everyone was very friendly, helpful, and patient during our entire visit. They quickly did treatments and asked to keep my dog til end of day for observation. Unfortunately we had to head back to LA but the doc gave thorough instructions on observing him through the night and giving follow up kibbles every 2 hours to keep his blood glucose level up. She even offered to walk out to explain the situation to my husband who is allergic to cats and was waiting outside, even though she has a leg brace on and was using walker! (I hope you feel better soon!) Our dog is still not out of the woods yet but I wanted to leave a shoutout here to the doc and staff who helped us today. Thank you all so so much!!

He treated me and my boyfriend kindly and made sure all our questions were answered and I didn't feel rushed. He took care of our old senior girl and removed a huge tumor from her that other vets didn't want to do because of the size. He even went out of his way to call the following morning to check in on her to see how she was doing. His staff is also nice specifically Lainey who I want to thank for being so kind and also not rushing me on the phone. I came across so many other vet receptionists who just wanted to get me off the phone when my dog was DYING but Lainey took the time to talk to me and listen. Thank you all. you saved my baby and you made me feel taken care of as well. I'd drive an hour for you guys each time to have my animals taken care of by you and your team.

She was honest with us and we were able to give him hospice care for 3 months.I expected to pay more for a home visit - and it was reasonable in my opinion, but beyond that, the fact that he wasn't stressed was worth it. Sadly, we had to say goodbye to our big sweet guy 2 weeks ago. It was heartbreaking, and Dr. Fanning and her assistant were with us every step of the way. When she came in, Murphy greeted her with big kisses, and that made me feel better. He went to the Rainbow Bridge with us all surrounding him with love and kisses. I highly recommend Vets Here - they are wonderful. Barbara Levy

Great Vet care!…read more Pricing is reasonable compared to other local vets. (Example a Vet on the other side of the valley wanted to charge $1500 for a procedure due to several extra "required" tests, Dr Dean was able to do the same surgery for $350 because he didn't require all the extra tests unless we wanted them) He is very easy to talk to about what is considered needed and what procedures are extras, so you can decide what you want to pay for upfront. Don't be shy in asking questions on medical procedures costs aftercare etc...he's not hiding anything or trying to sneak in something extra to make a buck. Their office is very helpful. I started going to Dr Dean as a college student when I could not afford to pay for much of anything and I've flip flopped from local vet to local vet over the past 40 years...Dr Deans office is still one of the best options in the valley if you want an office that's down to earth and truly cares for your pet. Reminder pets (even healthy ones) are not cheap, you make a commitment to a living creature to care for it when you decide to buy or rescue a pet....be ready to pay for their medical needs.

Buddy is 14 yrs young and hadn't had vet care in years because I didn't want to put him through the upset of going to the vet. Vets here made it so simple by coming to us & providing excellent top level care. Buddy was a little grumpy but they handled him expertly, and in the end after the exam Buddy curled up on the couch next to the assistant and accepted pets- a wonderful reflection of the level of safety he felt throughout the experience. Barney also enjoyed the Vet's visit and I have to say having the vet come to us was overall so much more informative, and warm than the usual office visit. We will be calling you again!! Thank you Dr.Fanning!!!

Tip: arrive right before they open at noon. We waited about five minutes and were seen immediately. The initial exam fee was around $140. The facility is incredibly clean and modern, and every staff member we interacted with was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind. They took their time answering all of my questions and clearly explained my options without any pressure- outlining both the minimum recommended testing and additional tests purely for reassurance. Lab work revealed mild pancreatitis. Bentley received fluids and anti-nausea medication, and we went home with antibiotics, digestive support, and prescription food to support his recovery. I left feeling confident that he was truly cared for from every angle. While the visit was more expensive than I initially expected, it was absolutely worth it. I walked out with answers, clarity, and peace of mind- and I would not hesitate to bring Bentley back here again.

So annoyed at that Urgent Veterinary Care technician and management team. I have a feral cat who…read morehad a bloody external ear wound with alopecia. Without running any tests the vet came back and said it might be cancer. I acknowledged that may be the case but thought it was alarmist and premature to say that. The technician came back after cleaning the ear up to say they at this point they do agree it's a wound with possible infection, not cancer. Although they wanted to meet with me to go over the treatment and meds before I left, they forgot to put an antibiotic medicine dispenser in my bag, and three separate times I had to remind them to go back and give my (feral) cat his first dose of antibiotics, and flea meds, and remind them again to check for worms. They also forgot to give me topical antiseptic pads so I can clean the wound. I think they are training young interns who have no idea what they are doing.

I only had a simple question whether they accept walk-ins because if the answer was no, I didn't want to be placed on hold unnecessarily. I ended up waiting on hold for about five minutes, and when she finally returned to the phone, she told me they do not take walk-ins. Because of this, the entire call felt like a complete waste of my time. If I had simply been given a quick answer upfront, it would have taken less than a 30seconds.

I've had vets for over 30 years and never had anyone been this gross negligent. Another woman shared on my Nextdoor post that her dog was prescribed antibiotic by this same vet and caused fatal internal bleeding. Fatal. It makes me wonder what kind of vet this woman is. She's only been there since Feb 2023, just a short 3 years. There may be other cases we don't know about. Beware. If you choose them, you should really google info and ask PetMD about the meds/dosage. I did file a complaint with VMB. CA law does not punish vet malpractice unless it's proven to be intentional. VMB is a division of the Department of Consumer Affairs. They will investigate and do have a measure of accountability from citing fines, to further training, to probation, to protocol requirements, to suspension and revoking license. Pet owners need qualified medical professionals treating our pet family members.
