    f I've been coming to Alicia Pet Care Center for many years,…read morespecifically working with Dr. Matthew Wheaton. I was originally introduced to this veterinary hospital by my dog trainer, Vladae from SoCal Dog Training and I'm very glad I followed that recommendation. Over the years, Dr. Wheaton and his team have taken excellent care of my chocolate Labrador, Bruno. Now with my new puppy, Nico, also a chocolate Lab, choosing Alicia Pet Care Center again was an easy decision. Dr. Matthew is extremely knowledgeable, but more importantly, he is straightforward and trustworthy which is rare and very valuable. Their extended hours, including full-day Saturdays, make scheduling very convenient. They also offer a drop-off service, which is incredibly helpful when things get busy. Overall, a reliable, a bit pricey, but professional, and honest veterinary clinic. Thank you, Dr. Matthew and team.

    It's possible their regular vets are fine (hopefully), but their backup vet should be avoided if…read moreyou need to bring your pets here urgently. She recommends unnecessary procedures while using fear tactics, which is a shame. The backup vet was very incompetent. She recommended the wrong solutions and suggested imaging that cannot detect soft tissue issues. She never asked any history questions, examined the wrong area entirely, and jumped straight to worst case scenarios without justification. She spent only 5 minutes on the consultation and pushed for X-rays when in my dog's case, those weren't even necessary. X-rays are not the right protocol for soft tissue issues. I didn't have a choice as they were the only place open that day. A few days later my dog is completely fine because it wasn't actually that hard to fix. He had full anal glands that just needed to be emptied ... and this vet was pushing for X-rays and bloodwork instead One thing worth mentioning, she was very quick to suggest cancer or tumors without proper justification. What she may not know is that intact male dogs actually have hormonal protection that significantly reduces the risk of certain cancers in that area. A more knowledgeable vet would have considered this before jumping to worst case scenarios. This is basic intact male biology that should be understood before making such alarming suggestions to worried pet owners. That's why I usually just bring my dogs to my regular holistic vets in Irvine and Laguna Beach. To be fair, the regular staff are lovely. The vet tech was excellent, agreed with my decisions, and actually helped. So I do believe their regular vets and staff are much better. This one star is specifically for the backup vet. Please be very careful if they assign you to her.

    Jennifer has made such a difference in our lives!…read more Pepper was 1 yr old in 2013 when we rescued her from euthanasia at our local SPCA. She was returned for aggressiveness - she wouldn't allow anyone to touch her with their hands. She guarded her food and snapped at people and growled 24/7 - even when she was having fun. We will never know exactly what trauma she suffered before we brought her home, but we knew she deserved a chance at life. Even if she needed to be separate. That was ok. She deserved to be alive. For years we worked with Pepper, touching her with our feet, then socks over hands, giving her privacy, putting her food off to the side, and letting her come to us when she wanted attention. The ongoing issue was that Pepper wouldn't come unless we forced her. We didn't like forcing her to go out or interact. We knew there had to be another way. Then we met Jennifer! After a few sessions Pepper started coming to me when called, she started volunteering for cuddles and has even started to lay in my lap and allow me to pet her. This is Huge. Pepper prefers my husband, she never ever came to my lap for love before. The Pepper I knew simply "tolerated" me, and would sometimes allow my husband some interaction. Pepper is even more amazing than ever before. Jennifer helped Pepper to know that we love her and would never ever traumatize her or force her to do anything she didn't want to do. She's the nicest, friendliest, loving dog. She is great with kids (we never knew this before!) We knew we could give her a life, but it took Jennifer helping us to reach our goal and go way beyond our expectations. We never would have gotten this far without Jennifer. We owe her a world of gratitude and many blessings for giving Pepper the fullest form of a life possible (and Fur Mom gets lots of Love too ) Thank you Jennifer! Peter, Robin & Pepper Coll

We have been through 2 private dog trainers and one on one sessions with little results. We are on session 3 with Thrive and Jennifer and we are seeing noticeable results with his anxiety levels- especially when out on leash and encountering other dogs. He is much more confident and calm overall. I'd highly recommend trying this if you have a nervous or spazzy/anxiety-riddled dog.

    I've known Emily for 3 years now, first as a client of hers and now as a colleague. At risk of…read moresounding dramatic, she quite literally changed my life with my obnoxious adolescent Golden Retriever. My dog was horribly mouthy and unruly when we met Emily, and after a scarring experience with a different trainer in the area, my hope and faith were kinda down in the dumps. Emily, with her no-nonsense attitude and plethora of dog knowledge, left me with hope, homework and a multitude of things to ponder - Am I communicating clearly and fairly? Am I giving him everything he needs to be successful? A year and a half after our first session, Emily helped train the same (now less obnoxious) Golden Retriever on an e-collar so he could achieve full off-leash freedom. Emily has been, by far, one of the best investments I've made in my dog's life. I run a dog-walking company and refer my clients out to her and everyone is as amazed by her as I am. She answers all your questions about training for life, which is invaluable and puts on amazing events with other knowledgable trainers. She even organizes a free monthly pack walk where owners and their dogs can come learn to walk together in a neutral environment. My world with my dog opened up significantly since meeting Emily and we can't thank her enough.

    The fact emily is continually denying this and gaslighting the situation is very concerning. You…read morecan say what you want all day. You choked my dog in front of 15 people in a day class that had a choker on, with a leash you leveraged over your shoulder while he was behind you. He was verbally coughing. I should have reported it to the police but i was in shock to the situation. People should be aware this happened. Do you really think i just woke up one day and created this specific situation because I was bored? I stand by my statements. Take me to court if you like l, Ill testify there under oath. No one touches my dog like that.

    Dr. Cohen and his team were there for our family during one of the most difficult time our lives;…read morethe day that we knew it was time to peacefully walk our dog, Penelope, home. Although Penny wasn't a regular patient of Dr. Cohen's, the Laguna Beach Veterinary Medical Center's team made every effort to accommodate our last-minute request for our dog to pass peacefully in the comfort of our home. Although our hearts are broken, we couldn't have asked for a better way to say goodbye to Penny. Thanks to Dr. Cohen and his team, Penny was able to transition peacefully at home, on her blanket and bed, surrounded by her family who loved her so much. We are comforted in knowing that in her final moments, Penny was well taken care of by Dr. Cohen and the Laguna Beach Veterinary Medical Center team. Dr. Cohen's warm and caring energy made Penny and all of us feel at ease. A couple of months after Penny's passing, we made the decision to adopt another dog- a rescue puppy who we named Clifford. We couldn't have thought of a better veterinarian to care for our puppy than Dr. Cohen. So far, Clifford is happy, healthy, and enjoys his trips to the vet. We look forward to many years together with Clifford, thanks to the help of the Laguna Beach Veterinary Medical Center.

Everyone was just so relaxed and kind, it really helped with a stressful situation. The entire time my dog was so happy and didn't seem to realize we were at the vet. I appreciate that Dr. Mathew Cohen listed all the treatments, what they were for, and really explained the entire process so well. I really felt my dog was in great hands. They also sent me a card and a picture on the mail??? How cute!
