Dr. Hardy is just as wonderful as Dr. Grain was--thoroughly down-to-earth and completely professional. How many vets do you know who actively won't recommend a bunch of unnecessary tests you don't need? A quick heads-up: definitely call before heading over, especially on Saturdays, as they occasionally step out, close early, or might be away on vacation. Their phone system can be a bit quirky, but I suppose that just comes with the territory when you find a clinic that actually cares more about your pets than gouging customers. On the bright side, there is plenty of parking! Highly recommend. read more

Evening Pet Clinic - No unnecessary tests, just great care for this good pup. Healthy, happy, and well-cared for thanks to Dr. Hardy! - Veterinarians Near Me - Long Beach, California

I've been coming here for almost 20 years, first when Dr. Grain was the veterinarian and later with Dr. Hardy. My experience has always been great. Their prices are more affordable than other clinics, and I especially love that you can still schedule appointments when you need them. I've never had any issues with Dr. Hardy. It truly takes someone who loves animals to become a veterinarian, and I've always felt that genuine care from this team. I highly recommend them! read more

Dr. Hardy and his staff are great. I feel comfortable knowing my babies will be treated with care and kindness. Dr. Hardy answers all my questions and is very professional. Excellent service! read more

So disappointing! I've been waiting on my dogs test results for over two weeks. Calling daily with no replies to calls or voicemails. Is the office shut down? There should be more information provided read more

I have taken my dog to Dr. Hardy to get a tooth pulled plus teeth cleaning and everything was great. I recently had to put my dog down which was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. Everything went well. Received his ashes in 2 weeks. No complaints except I wish I didn't have to do that. read more

Took my cat in for a wellness check today. Service was very fast & they have reasonable prices

Love this place! Service is always on point! The Dr is super nice and they take good care of your pets.

Good : They have lots of availability for spay/neuter and the price isn't too bad. : Vaccine price is also comparable with other vet clinics. : Staffs are nice. Bad : If your animals are getting vaccinated here, you won't be able to go inside with them which I find it's quite odd. : We scheduled our puppy to get spayed here but we accidentally gave her food in the morning. ( They never told us what not to do before the procedure or even communicate whatsoever). I went to the clinic to let them know and wanted to reschedule but staff said it's still ok to proceed with the surgery and even went to confirm with the doctor. That really pissed me off. It showed me that they don't care about the animals.We decided not to reschedule and went to somewhere else. read more

I experienced a few issues with this place: 1. Called to make an appointment, left a voicemail and they never called me back. 2. Called again, waited awhile for someone to answer. I asked what they charged for Vaccines but was not informed of the "Vaccine wellness exam" 3. When I arrived for the appointment there was no one at the front desk and she didn't come out till about 15 mins later when another customer came in. 4. I was then given an estimate of the vaccines, which included a mandatory $26 "Vaccine wellness exam," I was not informed of this when I called. They are basically charging $26 to check your pet's temperature. I've never experienced this so called fee at any other vet's office. Seems like a scam charge. 5. Just an FYI, when I walked in there was just one other person in the waiting room, by the time I left every seat was taken. On the positive side, place smells & looks clean. read more

Evening Pet Clinic - Prices for Vaccines plus $26 for mandatory wellness check. - Veterinarians Near Me - Long Beach, California

First, they're extremely expensive. Was quoted a ridiculous amount for a neutering. Around $800. AMPM clinic in Norwalk charged me $170. Second, it's noon on a Saturday and they're closed even though it clearly states everywhere they close at 3. No sign outside, or anything giving a reason. Extremely unprofessional. Third, apparently they have a phone just for phone because they never answer. Stay away read more

Just for todays visit I give them 5 stars and then some!! Why??? Because we did NOT have an appointment in fact we had an emergency, YES AN EMERGENCY because Coco had what appeared to be a bee sting because her face had started to swell after coming in from using the potty and playing in our backyard.. At 4:11 pm is when I called which was immediately after I had taken notice to coco being swollen in the face, asked if they had any openings I was told no but I can bring her in and not even kidding AS SOON as we stepped foot in , the lady at the front desk told the lady in the back "CoCo is here!" And not even a minute later we got called into the room... we are extremely THANKFUL, GRATEFUL & APPRECIATIVE for Dr. Hardy and his staff I've had HORRIBLE experiences with vets, not trustworthy AT ALL because I KNOW that these days they seem to prey on your desperation and emotions to find out what's wrong with your fur babies as well as you wanting to fix whatever issues they're having~ to ME it's been a complete money Scheme BUT I honestly feel safe bringing all THREE of my babies here! Not the first time for us coming here either... but this UNEXPECTED EMERGENCY and the way they had us in and out, and coco back on the road to basically instant recovery HANDS DOWN was the icing on THIS vegan cake ( also pricing wasn't bad AT ALL ) Photos will be enclosed and it will be from the time we were on the road to Evening Pet Clinic and once we returned home... Dr. Hardy prescribed Coco a 5 day medication but while we were there he injected my baby with the medication that was needed for this case ... FYI when I called at 4:11pm I had NO IDEA that their closing time was at 6:00 pm until we were getting ready to leave and I asked... WE were out of there way before 6:00 I don't even think it was 5:30 yet ( I was in too much of a panic to ask prior or to even pay attention to their hours of operation today) Thank you Dr. Hardy and your staff.... read more

I came here with my doggy for the first time. I was recommend to come here by a family friend. So I had high expectations however, the wait time was excessive and the veterinarian was very rude and dismissive. They took my pet away to a different room to examine them without me. Which was suspicious if you ask me. Then the veterinarian came in and I mentioned my concerns to him and he was like oh yeah I don't know. How don't you know??? I would never bring my pet here ever again. The staff was very kind and nice. In my opinion the veterinarian there just wanted to take all the money he could and he didn't care about the animals worst experience ever!! read more

Wonderful people, they helped my dog! She was having a very bad earache that came on overnight they got her right in helped her out. Her Doctor was so nice and was so patient with her (she is part Pit bull/mastiff) She was feeling much better afterwards! I could totally tell and very reasonable prices too. I am definitely transferring all my vet records over to them and I'll be taking all three of my pets there from now on read more

The Vet is so courteous and nice. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Take my babies there and have not found a better place.

Dr. Grain is the best. We have gone to him for 10 years. He has treated a possum, a canary, numerous dogs and cats. He has always been fair and honest never taking advantage of a desperate situation. He's always said it's not my job to keep this sick animal alive. Dr. Gain is very knowledgeable in all aspects of veterinary science. He is willing to take time to share his expertise and experiences with his patient's parents. After many years of practicing in our area, Dr. Grain has decided to take a well deserved rest and retire. In his place, Dr Hardy is taking over the practice. He is a capable, young veterinarian. He is both gentle, caring and thorough in his examinations. I know that he will carry on with Dr. Grain's love and care of our pets. In addition the office staff at Evening Pet Clinic are caring, accommodating, and knowledgeable in the care of pets. I highly recommend Evening Pet Clinic for your pet's needs. And I wish to thank Dr. Grain for keeping our pets healthy and happy for many years. Mary Recinos read more

Absolutely love this place, my family and I don't trust any other vet with our dogs. Will definitely continue to come here for years and years. read more

Without Dr.Grain this place has gone completely downhill he truly loved and cared for your pets like his own. Went in to get my dog's vaccinations up to date which took almost two weeks to schedule and we had a concern about his teeth. Customer service was lacking and just for the "check up " it was 50 dollars . They do not administer the shots in front of owners which is a little nerve racking. Dr.Hardy walks in no introduction without any bed side manner for less than 3 mins to give a diagnosis that was later quoted at 1500-2000 dollars for my dog to get a cleaning , I express I really would want to avoid anesthesia in any treatment. He word for word scoffs and says "well i cant help you...." even if that were true that is no way to speak to people worried about a cherished member of their family. Will be seeking other options , and will update this review to prove there are more a vet can offer than a 2000 dollar procedure. read more

This place is very money hunger they said if I don't pay in full today they will put down my dog and the lady didn't offer payment or nothing was just full blown rude as hell . Y'all I highly recommend going somewhere else . I will be reporting yall for extortion! read more

great and quick service for my small dog who had an injury from getting bit by a larger animal. the clinic was relatively clean but dusty. the total cost was still expensive- $56 office visit, $250+ for meds, but it was comparable to other vet clinics i've been to. they are not child-friendly. read more

Dr. Grain is AWESOME! VERY knowledgeable n LOVES his animal patients! Clean office, professional n friendly staff! They take very good care of my furbabies. Thank you read more

My dogs skin is really bad. I took him in today. The newer dr was argumentative... I had certain theories as to why my dogs skin was the way it was and the dr. talked to me like I was ignorant...I'm here to figure out why my dog is chewing his skin off. I spent $160 and got no answers. The rescue where I got my dog they said he was part lab... the dr said he wasn't then offered no guess as to what he could be. Felt ridiculous .. will be finding a new vet to find what's wrong. read more

My first time at the clinic I did not know that I was not going to be allowed to be with my pet during the doctor's check-up, which I think is a red flag. Dr. Hardy lacks any kind of manners which makes for a very uncomfortable experience and an unwelcoming environment. He does not seem to express care or empathy (which I'm sure he has since he is dedicating himself to animal care.) Client-services act more like a retail store than an animal hospital. I would not recommend this clinic. read more

My family has been coming to this clinic for over 33 years. Dr. Grain was wonderful, he was very good with our pets, and listened to our concerns. Dr. Grain has recently retired. There is a new Veterinarian. I'm not sure if I like him because I've never met him. You are no longer allowed to go into the examination room with your pets, the assistants just take them and go, and bring them back when they're done. You're not given an assessment on your pets health. If given medication, you're not told which side effects to look for if any. The customer service has gone down. I called for a week before someone actually answered the phone. When calling it would just ring about 6 times before the answering machine would pick up and say goodbye When speaking to others in the waiting room everyone had the same complaint, some even complained about their Pharmacy not being able to reach the office about refills on medication (about 4 different individuals). When I brought my pet in the girl at the desk ignored me for about 5 minutes, finally she said, have a seat, I'll be with you in a minute. I understand she was printing out a receipt and writing something down, but it would have taken 5 seconds to acknowledge me. I use to have such confidence bringing me pets here. Not so sure this will continue to be my Veterinarian office and this saddens me. The staff is a reflection of the business, this reflection is not looking very good. read more

This placed is no longer what it once was a welcoming place for pets since dr Granier left. The receptionist is very rude, rarely answers calls has no sense of customer service please run ‍‍‍ read more

My dog was there to get shots we left came home and she couldn't breathe face swell up I didn't know what was wrong. I called the office back they were close had to rush her to the hospital found out she had an allergic reaction to the shots. The problem that I had I should have been told this could happen and what I should do not 288 dollars later. The vet had no concern at all his statement was you would have had to do that anyway. Never asked about my dog until I stated that's all you have to say WOW . I told him that that's what your front desk should let people know that this could happen and what to do by the way I spent 200 dollars in his office for shots. read more

Every time I call here the girl is extremely rude. I called regarding my sick cat on today Monday and she said no we can't take him in, keep in mind he hasn't been eating and throwing up the last 24 hours. She mentioned they don't have an appointment until Thursday. I mentioned I needed to have him seen before and she said she couldn't do anything and it's up to me of I want to take him somewhere else. Thanks for the great advice I will definitely be talking my 4 pets I would bring here somewhere else. read more

This place just went downhill. I thought supporting a black business would be the way. I'm so devastated the other doctor left. He was the epitome of a good man not this current young doctor who is condescending and has a staff with no heart. The young hispanic woman in the front wont follow simple directions. She deliberately did not do it which cost us an abundance of money. Dr. Green was out doctor since 2008 this sucks. My babies will never return here. read more

We've been seeing Dr. Grain for many years. He is a most caring and expert veterinarian. My three small, aging dogs are comfortable here, and not afraid. The staff are friendly and caring, and everyone is top notch at their jobs. My favorite thing about Dr. Grain, in addition to his veterinary expertise, is that he has a big booming voice when he speaks normally, but speaks to the animals in a teeny tiny voice. It's adorable, and it works. Love, love, love this vet and we travel 7.4 miles to see him, when there are plenty of vets closer. He explains everything very clearly, doesn't overcharge or try to do more than necessary. As others have said, Dr. Grain is AWESOME! read more

Dr. Hardy takes great care of my cat. However due to Covid, you're unable to go inside where your pet is taken since it's so small. However, Dr. Harvey does come out and talk to you about his observations and what he did. There's a 3 people inside the lobby rule which is also fair because the lobby is super tiny. Overall, great service. Dr. Grain is missed but your pets are in great hands with Dr. Harvey. read more

Evening Pet Clinic - My cat at Dr. Grain's office. - Veterinarians Near Me - Long Beach, California

Dr. Hardy is an amazing vet. He is really passionate about the care for pets. He is straight forward and gives it to you straight. He has cared for my pets for many years. I have followed him to different locations because I believe he cares about my pets as much as I do. My pets trust him, and approach him with no hesitation. I have never experienced that with other vets. Usually, they are trembling the moment we reach the parking lot. Not here, they are confident and walk in happy! read more

((warning graphic)) We found a kitten hit by a car and bleeding in the middle of Cherry, a few blocks south. I quickly scooped her up, and drove to the nearest vet. As I walked indoors her tail completely degloved, and I was holding a little kitten with a skeleton tail, who was bleeding all over me. I went to the front desk, and told the lady that this is an emergency, and this kitten needs help. She looked annoyed and said that the office was booked for the day and told me to go to a humane society. Thinking that perhaps I wasn't willing to foot the bill, I told her that I was happy to pay for the cat's treatment. She looked even more annoyed, insisted that I go elsewhere. I asked if she could tell me where, and she rudely said that they don't keep that kind of information on hand. She sat behind her desk, and began typing. By this point there were pet owners in the office, all upset over the sight of my dying cat. One man shouted that she has to be kidding- this cat needs emergency help. And a kind old lady referred us to the VCA. Honestly, the cat needed serious medical assistance, and I'm not even sure if this facility would have been able to provide any real help. However, the lady at the front desk was incredibly rude and unhelpful as an animal was dying in her waiting room. And because of this I would never give a place like this my business. read more

I love the care my pets get when i take them but trying to get an appointment is really hard. Ive been trying for a month and my dogs condition is getting worse. I hope they can find more staff or another vet to help with clients. I hate that i have to find another vet due to them being either too busy or under staffed. read more

The best doctor I've ever had the pleasure of taking my many pets to. Dr.Grain works magic.

I've taken my cats several times. He is knowledgeable and helpful gives you the best advice for your pets without trying to gouge you for money that won't help your pet. He is compassionate and caring about your animal. I recommend him highly. read more

Dr. Grain retired and someone new took over the business. The young lady who answers the phone is rude and it appears as if they just plain don't care about their customers. The girl who answered the phone told me they have no appointments available for a month and if it's an emergency then go to the animal ER. I asked her if she can just call me if someone cancels and I'd be willing to drop everything and come over and take the spot. She said no. Needless to say, I asked for my dogs records to be sent to me (which was an ordeal in itself) and took my business elsewhere. I had been going here for 18yrs until this happened. read more

This will be my second time coming to this pet clinic because it is walking distance to where I live and my first experience was with Dr. Grain and very pleasant person very easy-going just had to get my cat examined and get a prescription for his food. My second visit I was a bit different due to Covid and I had Dr. Hardy to look at my cat to get his shots and of course his prescription food again and also my dog which need to get his ears checked because I believe it was infected and of course it was indeed infected so I asked him to give me the best possible care he can give me for him and he explained to me what he was going to do and that was pretty much it and I went ahead and did it, before they were about to do everything one of the ladies that work there came in to give me a quote on what they were doing and how much it will cost and the pricing isn't that bad. Overall the experience went smoothly and both my pets are doing fine. Thank you everyone all of you were very pleasant which a question all the bad reviews for the past few months which to be honest I see them as . *I do have a picture of the listed services and medication I got. read more
