We love MedVet! Ghost had a foxtail lodged in his rear paw so we brought him in on a Saturday evening. The staff moved so quickly and efficiently, and everyone was very sweet and supportive! Dr. Wright examined Ghostly's body with such care, and then clearly explained the next steps. I appreciated how thorough and kind she was with us and Ghost. They also gave us different options for medicine which is nice for different budgets. 10/10 !! :)

Just updating the previous review! I want to thank the MedVet Campbell team for reviewing my case and issuing a refund for the charges on my recent visit. I truly appreciate the professionalism and the care they showed in resolving the issue. Thank you for taking the time to look into it and for handling everything so kindly.

I have 4 cats and 1 kitten. I also foster but this is the first time I had to go to an emergency vet. My orange guy, Heathcliff (I call him Heathy for short) has been sneezing. I was looking into making an appt w/ his vet after the holidays for it. It wasn't too concerning since he's still eating, drinking, and being his normal self. This morning while giving him his breakfast Christmas treat, I noticed he has a watery left eye. It was partially closed probably due to the tears (or pain?). I called MedVet in San Jose and decided to head there. A review for them will follow but I ended up leaving that location to come here. The service and sincerity from staff was unwavering. I was the only one there for a few minutes until a couple walked in w/ their dog. I am grateful there are places like this opened 24/7 because accidents and emergencies can happen to anyone at any given time. They took Heathy in. Roughly 10 min. later the vet came out to tell me what she assessed and asked if I want to do an eye test to see if his eyes are scratched. I consented to having it done. In the end my bill totaled $380'ish including the cost of the eye drops. I bought a humidifier 30 min. ago and will spend extra time w/ my boy. The upper respiratory infection can flare up due to stress. He dislikes Mango, another male orange guy I am trying to help find him a home. I suspect the stress from that was what caused the URI. Either ways. I am happy I brought him in and appreciative of this place and staff today on Christmas morning. Hopefully I will never come back here but at least now I know where to go in case of emergencies.

Tried to feed the kitty.

I just tried to take this cat to med vet and my experience wasn't great. Saw this post on a fb page, I offered to take her to med vet since I've always been told you can take sick/injured cats there after hours. I got there and I told them about the post & I told them she had an ear tip and I was asked if they could check her chip? First they told me that they no longer accepted Cats for SJAC but then they call out a vet to check on her/him. The vet asks what is happening I explain what was told to me & what the post said. The vet, her name was apparently Yessenia (tall, w platinum hair), was really rude, and would not even address me. I was told the cat was not walking (possibly hit) & I mentioned that, she took the cat to a room and comes out and tells the receptionist (as she called her by her name) "this is a tnr, she has an ear tip. She was walking just fine!" Hands me the carrier and goes back into the room and doesn't not say a word to me. I thought that was very unprofessional, how are you going to be in the profession of helping animals but be rude because I am trying to help an animal. I even told her thank you before she took the cat and she just had an attitude. Then when I got to my car, you can see her complaining or saying something to the receptionist and 3 other members of staff with her little attitude. I left a little confused and discouraged, I didn't know Medvet was no longer accepting strays, I'm an animal lover & I was just trying to help this cat. No one deserves to feel bad for trying to help an animal, I don't even know what I did or said to make her act the way she did. I really hope she doesn't discourage others who just want to help as well. Only giving 2 stars because at least the receptionist tried to be helpful.

So healthy just a couple of weeks ago.

MY CAT DIED HERE. IT STARTED OUT HOPEFUL BUT PROGRESSED INTO AN AGONIZING EXPERIENCE. I have been TRAUMATIZED by this experience. My cat started having a breathing problem, so I brought her here because my local Vet was booked and couldn't see her. I came with my closest friend who was also appaled. I understand some people had very good experiences here. It depends on the severity of the case or luck. There are some very good veterinarians (Dr. La Plume) here and a few good technicians. But there are some vets who don't care and there are big problems especially if it's a serious case. When I brought my cat in, she was lively. In the oxygen case, she paced back and forth and meowed loudly. That was normal. Then she gradually went downhill after the treatment and the meds. She experienced a lot of stress here. Responsiveness and turnaround for follow-up was a nightmare. This affected my cat's life while on very strong med that was prescribed here. That part of the MedVet company needs to be addressed. I tried to reach a vet in between visits and begged for a response. Even walked into the clinic and requested a brief conversation with the vet on the floor at the time. They have 12-hour shifts. Why can't they find 5-10 minutes to talk to a pet parent who may not make it and it's urgent? I sent email per the coordinator's recommendation. I was recommended to forward it to another vet. All were ignored. I didn't hear any response for several days during a critical heart-related case. This happened another time. At a time when you need timely responses and you need support, it may or may not happen here. If they don't want to talk to you, they just don't respond?? This is not professional. Not caring behavior on the part of MedVet. Totally shameful! My beautiful sensitive lavender Siamese named "Milk" got worse and worse after treatment and meds. Then she developed kidney failure. There are all kinds of theories about how one affects the other. But how did this occur so fast when she was so much better when brought in? MedVet is understaffed. A few people at the front desk are very nice and some are just very matter-of-fact and very fast to hand over the invoices and act like they wish they weren't there. The total bill added up to a shocking $8000! I am a senior on fixed income. I never imagined any vet company would charge such exorbitant fees. This is a big out-of-state corporation. While there are some good people here, there are limitations to the professional conduct that were experienced and were extremely stressful. I had the distinct impression that the non-medical staff are under pressure to just keep saying "they're busy" and never get back to you. Dr. La Plume did reach me after my beloved cat was recommended to be euthanized and responded after my Yelp rating. I have since modified my comments somewhat. But my cat declined way too fast. And the experience was indeed a nightmare and my cat could have lived longer and not suffered this way to the point of her being euthanized.

Drizzi is my hero.

A few months ago, Lola suffered a ruptured disc in her neck and needed emergency surgery. It was an extremely stressful and frightening experience for us, especially after watching her suffer from excruciating pain for weeks. Dr. Vitale immediately brought Lola in for an MRI to verify what she correctly suspected was the problem and performed Lola's surgery right away. We truly could not have hoped for a better outcome. The surgery was a huge success, and today Lola appears to be completely pain free and is back to her happy, normal self. Seeing her comfortable and enjoying life again means more to us than we can possibly express. We cannot thank Dr. Vitale enough for what she did for Lola and for our family. She gave our dog her quality of life back, and we will always be incredibly grateful. Dr. Vitale is truly our hero, and we feel so fortunate that Lola was in her care. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Took 3 days for a callback. Finally spoke to a PT specialist, confirmed clearly (multiple times): underwater treadmill therapy only. Was told it would be a 30 min, $241.16/session. Got scheduled. Told it could take two or three water therapy sessions for pet to be comfortable. Appointment canceled within a day (staff illness, understandable) -- told to call back immediately to rebook. I did, repeatedly. Same voicemail runaround. Days later got a callback only to be told all PT nurses were out and I still couldn't reschedule. Dismissive and frustrating. I gave up. A few days later, got an apology call. Gave them one more shot. Rebooked, confirmed again by phone: water therapy only. Day of: Therapists asked our goals -- I said water therapy, build strength from dogs TPLO surgery. They ran a battery of PT exercises instead. I assumed it was a warm-up. At 11:22, 40 minutes in, I asked when he'd get in the tank, which is why we are here, which is what was scheduled! The lead therapist said they no longer have enough time to fill the tank. I was shocked!! We booked, and confirmed, one specific service. They ran a different session entirely and then ran out the clock. I expressed my frustration. What were we doing here? This was not the appointment we scheduled. It was obvious the therapists knew, and it became clear I was going to be charged for a longer session than initially requested. I asked for the office manager. Spoke to the office manager. Did not pay for their lack of service and their incredibly poor communication skills. Read the other reviews here before you book. We won't be back.

And I am glad I found them, especially Dr. Lau. Can I just say, I absolutely love Dr. Lau? My biggest fear of having my last Vet retire was how I would find another conscientious and caring Vet who actually cared enough to put the work in. I have had dogs my entire life and I have encountered some awful Vets in the past, so when I found my last Vet I was thrilled to have him. I stayed with him for 17 years. Now that I have found Dr. Lau I feel so relieved and happy. Over the past two years I have slowly moved my three cats and one dog to Reed Animal Hospital. Dr. Lau has been nothing but kind and helpful and I 100% believe she cares about my animals. I can ask her questions and she answers them. She goes above and beyond without being pushy. And she is just an incredibly pleasant person to work with. I completely trust that she will exhaust all efforts to care for my animals. The other plus is that the Vet Techs and the front desk staff have always been incredibly pleasant. The front desk staff has never been snippy or rude like some other Vet offices are (or even your regular Dr. offices are). And the Vet Techs have been kind and good with my animals. Knowing your animals are well cared for is such a relief. And I am happy I found them.

Thank you for always going out of your way to hire the perfect people to give the most kind and loving care to all our precious animals. We can't thank you enough. Warmly, Mary, Matt, Murray and Monty.

Further note: They did give me a discount because he was late, but that doesn't address the time I wasted and that my cat was unduly stressed waiting.

When I entered the hospital, I let them know that my dog had been hit by a car, but given that she was walking around, they didn't prioritize doing a quick check on her first. The priority was making sure that a deposit was made. I understand the mechanics of how an emergency vet works because I had previously worked at one. And I understand that the financial aspect is a priority, but when you go in and let them know that your dog got hit by a car and they prioritize getting the money and then putting you in a room only for you to wait for some additional time before a technician goes in, it doesn't really leave me with reassurance that they cared about my dog. I ultimately think that once they had her in the back, they took good care of her. But walking away from this experience, I'm not sure if I would return to this emergency vet. The time that it took for my dog to be seen would have been the same if I went to another ER vet that I know would have prioritized doing a quick check on her the minute we walked in. It could be that if you were looking for a regular vet, you would have a good experience, but if you have an emergency, just be aware that they'll prioritize getting payment before doing a check on your dog (even when she's gotten hit by a car). I think the other thing, that many folks have already highlighted in their own reviews is pricing. If I'm comparing apples to apples where I'm looking at costs from one emergency vet hospital to Archvet, services and medications are at least 2-3X the cost. For example, at another emergency vet that I had to go to earlier this year, 10 pills of Carpeofen was $25 while ArchVet charged $100. Given the amount of time that it took for my pup to be seen by a vet and the overall costs, it would have made more sense for me to go to another emergency vet like MedVet or Sage (I obviously didn't know what the experience/costs would be like at ArchVet until after we were discharged). I think every pet owner is obviously in very different situations with your pets so my experience may have varied from another person's. But I just wanted to share my personal experience as somebody who has previously worked in the vet world so that you have the right level of expectations going into ArchVet.
