Samantha S.

We feel so lucky to have found Dr. Khouban!! The hardest part of having fur babies is having to let one go. Our golden retriever Riley was at the end of her life and we knew we wanted her last view to be of the home she grew up in and not some lab table at the vets office. Dr Khouban came to our home and was so so patient with us, giving us the time we needed to say goodbye. She also did a paw print keepsake of her paw so we can always have that with us. I really appreciated her kindness and professionalism. We recently added a new pup to our family and look forward to using her other care services for him and our golden Penny.

I just visited Dr Khouban when the cat I recently adopted got tapeworm. I'm a first time pet owner so I had a lot of questions and anxiety of not knowing what to do. Dr K was so patient with me answered all my questions and was very transparent about the steps and costs. She was honest about which options were more bang for the buck. You can tell she's in this business for the animals as her love and care shines through. Due to Covid I wasn't able to talk to her in person, but she was open and consistent with her communication so it was like I was there every step of the way. When I got my cat back, she was calm and relaxed in her carrier showing no signs of stress. Thank you Dr Khouban!

Dr. Galleet Khouban is the consummate professional - she is the vet that you want for your furry member of the family. Having a sick pet is one of the most worrisome and stressful positions that a person can be in. During this time, you desire someone who will give your pet their utmost attention, someone who displays the empathy, care, gentle touch, and honesty you would want in a physician that sees you, your friends, or family. These are the qualities that I immediately noticed in Dr. Khouban. I arrived at her vet clinic with 10/10 stress and emotions through the roof as my cat had been urinating blood over the previous week. Right off the bat, she soothed my cat by gently talking to him and softly patting his back, and then made me feel a million times more comfortable by calmly and confidently explaining her plan. After taking my cat, she provided me with updates and intermittent spurts of reassurance and ease. After giving my cat back to me, she went through all her diagnostics and findings in language that I can understand, and made sure that I understood everything and all my options prior to leaving. She offered me opportunities to ask questions and respectfully answered and provided detailed explanations. I felt...a sigh of relief, like I had someone in my corner who would make sure my cat was heading in the right direction. Once home, she even followed up with me and made sure that all my prescriptions were placed appropriately. She also followed up with my cat's progress throughout the next two weeks. It can sometimes be hard to sense whether a physician is "just doing their job" or if she/he is fulfilling their passion and truly caring for your loved one as if it was their own. With Dr. Khouban, the entire visit felt like the latter. I am truly grateful and will forever go to her for all my animal needs.

My beautiful dog, I will miss you forever

My baby Oreo the love of my life had neared her end of her beautiful long life and I cannot express the sheer amount of gratitude I have for finding Dr. Khouban. Everytime I would think about what I had to do I would cry. Dr. Khouban took charge and helped me through this difficult moment and was so compassionate and caring. It felt as if she also knew and loved my dog for as long as I did. The thought of taking her to the vet and doing it there, a place I know she hates, gave me anxiety because I wanted her last moments to be happy so the fact that Dr. Khouban came to my home is so invaluable. She made sure Oreo was comfortable and I was with her the whole time. It just looked like she went to sleep and that was that. Without her I wouldn't have been able to do this. You need someone who knows what they're doing, who can make you and your fur baby be comfortable and not scared, let's you take your time and do it at the right time. The last moments are so precious and you don't want to mess with that with the wrong doctor. I truly cannot suggest Dr. Khouban and her services more. I garuantee you're in good safe capable hands! Additionally, during these times with covid she was very clean and very safe and having that extra precautions being taken care of very well helped me put my mind at more ease.

This was a high-stress situation for me but the staff at LAVC were very informative and kept me updated while Maze was in their care.

Nothing but good things to say and I'll definitely be recommending this place to all my pet-owning friends! :)

We kept coming back for the convenient location--until today. I arrived 15 minutes early for my dog's 2:30 PM appointment. At check-in, the front desk (Crystal) asked me to prepay, which was new to me. When I asked what services were included, she said only vaccines. I had previously requested microchipping a week ago, but that wasn't noted. She mentioned a 3 PM cancellation slot, but I told her to hold off since I couldn't stay much longer. After waiting over an hour, I asked a different tech about the delay. Then Crystal blurted she had moved my appointment to 3 PM to include all services--something she NEVER communicated; which I pointed out to her, I asked to speak with a supervisor and continued waiting. We were finally taken to a room, and 15 minutes later (total of 1hr 15min LATER) , the doctor entered and accused *ME* of being disrespectful to her staff--which is completely FALSE. I believe the front staff member BLATANTLY LIED to cover her own condescending and unprofessional behavior. I was upfront with the doctor and encouraged her to review the cameras. As a business owner myself, I know you never put a customer on the defensive--especially when your feelings are hurt because someone called out poor service. That's a training issue, not mine. This experience was not only upsetting but also makes me question how much the doctors enable their staff's mediocrity. The lack of communication, professionalism, and customer service is evident from the moment you walk in. I stand by my word: !!! review the cameras!!! I was never disrespectful--not once.

The dogs are both 13 years old and I'm very pleased with Modern Animal's management of their health. Dr. De Silva is so smart and knowledgeable. I dislike pushy vets, so I'm so happy that Dr. De Silva explains different options and provide suggestions based on her professional opinion and evidence. I appreciate her thoroughness in answering my fifty billion questions at every visit. I feel at ease knowing that babies are in good hands! Also, big shoutout to the clinical team (Sabrina, Samantha, and Jorge) yesterday for the updates, pictures, and love! The clinical team is always so friendly and helpful. I've been recommending Modern Animal to everyone I know because of my wonderful experience. Note that you are paying a premium for the services, but everything is well documented and accessible via their app. It's so easy to get reimbursed for pet insurance too.

Their way of connecting through text and call was prompt, easy to reach, and thoughtful. They were the ones who diagnosed Coffee with degenerative heart condition and gave me treatments. Alot of other vets that I go every year never diagnosed him, only told us he has a heart murmur but didn't go further than that. They were very detailed about Coffee's condition, something I appreciate because Ive always been questioning his condition. Fast forward to a few weeks ago Coffee started having a smell that smelled like death. We took him to this vet again. The vet was direct, informative, and well intentioned. Before we could consider putting Coffee in any procedure we made sure to do some tests. Less than 24 hours later the vet called us to immediately request us to come back to explain the results. The results, while devastating, was handled with vigilance and care. The vet gave me time to cry afterwards in the room. They did all they could for my boy. In emergency they printed out the files so if his condition worsened were he had to be taken to the emergency, the papers were already there. I originally scheduled a euthanasia appointment with them but Coffee peacefully passed in my arms before then. They recommended this amazing place called Honor Pet when it comes to giving me and my dog peace. Thank you so much for doing your best with Coffee. Im very grateful.

My dog needed a benign fatty tissue removed but I couldn't afford what many places were quoting me…read more This hospital was upfront about the cost, offered payment plans, and was quick to schedule and get her in. The majority of the staff is friendly and welcoming but my biggest pet peeve are places that dont answer their phones, the hold times are exorbitantly long (often over forty minutes. Understandable given the high influx but perhaps more staffing should be hired solely for phones), and it was quicker to show up in person without an appointment than having one. I often made an appointment but it seemed useless when I was left sitting in the waiting area for two to three hours on multiple occasions because the receptionist admitted to forgetting I was there or the medical assistants overlooked me. To their credit they were apologetic but in the moment when you're worried about your pet, waiting endlessly without any information or a reasonable amount of time doesnt make it any easier. There were also times when I was told I'd be contacted when my pet was ready for pickup but when the call never came I had to just show up and hope she was ready by the time they closed. My pet is also a recent shelter animal rescue and I felt like one of the doctors implied that my family was the reason for a scratch she had on her tummy that she would occasionally scratch at so that it wouldn't scab over and heal. I understand the vets concern for my dog and appreciate it to ane extent but even after I explained that she was a recent rescue and that her scratches were one of the reasons we'd brought her in along with her benign fatty tissues, he was a lot more curt and a little standoffish with us. Again I understand he was just concerned but I also sort of wish I'd been given the benefit of the doubt. If I really needed to, I'd come back here again but after a few of the mishaps mentioned above, I did seek out a different vet clinic that was a lot more organized and welcoming and also offered the same payment plans as this one.

He helped bring comfort during one of the most difficult moments for our family, and we will always be grateful for that.

I would highly recommend Be Well Veterinary Hospital to anyone looking for a compassionate and caring veterinarian.

The lobby and patient rooms smell fresh and clean in a very neutral way, without smelling either like animals or like too much cleaning product - comfortable for both animals and humans. There is typically plenty of parking during business hours, with a relatively quiet parking lot, so you can easily wait with your pet in the indoor seating or outside. Typically not crowded indoors, so if you have a scared or reactive pet, there is plenty of space in the large lobby / reception area to sit with your animal companion without them being too close to other patients. The pet scale in the reception area is flush with the floor, and because it's in the lobby, you can assist with your animal being weighed before they head into the back area with the staff - this is very helpful for scared and energetic pets who may need help sitting still. The staff are terrifically kind and helpful to both animals and humans. They are patient, they listen to your requests and feedback and help process your stress around a sick or injured animal. The doctors are skilled and thorough, and will help you through the complicated processes to make the best decisions for your animals. Payment and procedures are explained in advance with clear language and paper (and/or digital) estimates outlining cost and potential emergent medical choices. Reasonable prices. Ask about vaccine discount days! Best of all - they don't have an "emergency" fee for same-day or walk-in appointments! Even so, it's smart to call ahead if requesting a same-day appointment so you won't be waiting long with your stressed pet. Honestly, my dog loves the staff here.

My brother in law had recently moved to Canada, and his dog fell sick while still in the U.S. I was trying to figure out how to get the dog safely to Canada given his medical condition, and I called several clinics for guidance. Most places required an appointment just to answer basic questions, which made the situation even more stressful. Dr. Nassi was kind enough to explain that if we were driving the dog to Canada, we did not need a medical certificate, which meant we did not have to wait for an appointment or go through a lengthy certification process. The clinic also reviewed and validated the rabies certificate over email without charging us. As someone who does not own a dog and was trying to handle this on behalf of my brother in law, I was feeling very overwhelmed. Dr. Nassi really helped us understand the right path forward and made it possible for us to get the dog back to his owner. I am extremely thankful for the kindness and support we received. I highly recommend this clinic. The entire team, including the reception staff, was warm, patient, and very helpful.
