I found Dr Heller on Yelp as i was searching for a holistic Dr. that would come to my home for my 13+ yr old Hound. She's got high anxiety now so car rides are not so fun. Dr Heller has been giving her acupuncture treatments for a couple months now for her hip and joint pain. We have seen improvements with her movement and comfort. I highly recommend Dr Heller. I am so happy i found her for my girl.

I found Dr. Heller via Yelp. First time using her on my foster Tigger, he was in bad shape from just being dumped & rescued from the Carson Animal Shelter. He had Cushing's disease, pneumonia, skin infection, was over weight and a displaced hip joint (probably from being hit by a car). She has come to help him once a week and he is now taking walks about 1/2 mile and doing so much better. She is great with animals and so flexible with her time.

Mia, almost 12 and still sassy. Dr Heller said she was looking good and recommended healthy supplements for heart and joint health.

I am not at all impressed with Jacqueline Heller. Based on my personal experience, I feel that she is an extremely inconsiderate person.

His staff ( a clear reflection of Dr. Shah) has been very conscientious and cordial, helping me with this challenge. I feel like a neighbor. KR

Upon a temperature read and an x-ray, it became clear that his issue wasn't anything less than an emergency, and he needed to be seen either by an ER vet or I needed to consider some difficult choices. But you know what Dr. Shah did? Dr. Shah stepped in, helped me forego the need for an ER vet, and took his own initiative and his pleasant team's to go ahead and take care of my kitten (at no add'l charge!). Not only was everyone earnest and sincere, but they were kind, encouraging, realistic, and above all else supportive. Dr. Shah didn't have to spend overtime to take care of my cat. He could have asked me to come another day, but no, he addressed the issue right then and there with the type of empathy and heart that you can only expect from a vet that you want to take your cat or dog to for the rest of your time. I loved working withNiguel Animal Care Center and would highly recommend anyone else with a need for professionalism, a scientific approach, and most importantly, care to head here with your little fur babies. My total costs were completely reasonable, but my total value gained was immeasurable. Highly highly highly recommend. I cannot believe all these first time reviewers reprimanding over an entitled surface level visit. My experience couldn't be more opposite. Thank you, Dr. Shah and thank you niguel animal care team

I am so grateful that we have SAH so nearby. I had gotten a puppy two years ago and we had many…read more"food indiscretion" and digestive issues in the first year. Sendero has always been so great at getting us in during all of those moments. They have been so informative and really helped me make the best decisions on food and treats and chews and all the stuff that comes along with a dog. I hadn't had a dog in quite awhile and it really helps to have some solid advice and perspective from the different doctors and techs we've seen over the course of the last two years. Each person is always so helpful from the moment we walk in and I'm truly appreciative of their care for my pup.

My dog had significant inflammation in multiple areas of his paw, including between the toes. However, the veterinarian did not examine the underside of his foot or the interdigital webbing, which is where a large portion of the problem was visible. Instead, I was immediately encouraged to proceed with a needle aspirate and cell analysis quoted at approximately $600-$700. I was uncomfortable moving forward with that without first addressing the obvious inflammation and possible infection. I was also quoted additional fees (around $65) to clean a single wound on one toe, while the rest of the paw condition was not discussed or treated. I asked for oral antibiotics and was told no he did not need them, I was prescribed one ointment called Anamax $35, even after I expressly asked for oral antibiotics she said no he did not need them, (the first thing the other hospital i.e. the second vet said, "we need to get him on oral antibiotics for six weeks as well as steroids", we started that protocol and within one day, I've seen huge improvements.) more in this,. After leaving Sendero, My dog was in so much pain, I sought care elsewhere. The second veterinarian examined the entire paw, including between the toes, and treated him with appropriate medications as mentioned above ( oral antibiotics and oral anti-inflammatory medications ). He has already shown noticeable improvement. I paid about $110 for this visit at Sendero and did not feel that my dog received a thorough evaluation or appropriate initial care. Based on this experience, I would not feel comfortable returning or recommending this clinic.

This 1 star review is for the administration and front desk people. A few days ago we started our dog on an antibiotic pill. It was 3 days tops and our dog started to have a bad reaction so we called to explore an alternative option which we were told would be a $200 shot. We asked if there was a way to credit the antibiotic pill charge seeing as though he had an adverse affect and were told no, that the office manager stated that was not possible. When I asked if I could speak to the office manager I was told no. When I asked if I could speak with Dr. Pat, I was told no and that I'd have to schedule and pay for an in person consultation. I asked if he could please call me back and I was told no. I asked if there was anyone else above the front desk girl I could speak with to dispute the charge and I was told no. This is a terrible business practice and it's left such a bad impression for me. Dr. Pat is a great guy and I can't imagine that he would not allow for his customers to dispute a charge.
