    My 15 yr old, Buster!

    No complaints other than I wish they had walk-in vaccine clinics which tend to be a lot more affordable from previous veterinarian offices I've been to before I moved here to Modesto. They took my dog in the day after called for a rabies shot that was due. The office is clean and well kept, the staff and doctor were very nice. The price was OK. I was thankful that they didn't make me do a whole well check visit just for one vaccine. I hesitated getting the vaccine at all since my dog is 15 years old but he's in good condition and still sees a groomer so they need to have that shot on file. :( My dog didn't seem stressed out after the shot, and he was perfectly normal!

    I had been looking for a new vet after my long term vet (Salida Vet) retired at the start of COVID. It was so difficult to get in anywhere. I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Higgins and all of the staff. I originally just brought in my cat who stopped eating and have since brought four other pets there too. The office has been consistently kind and attentive to my needs and questions. They referred me out to Monte Vista Vet when my cat needed an ultrasound that was not offered in house and the collaboration between the two offices was seamless. They have helped me with a full spectrum of needs, from basic needs such as vaccination updates, to complicated issues such as a cancer diagnosis. I could go on and on. Dr. Higgins is exudes kindness and compassion while at the same time being honest and informative. This is my vet and I recommend them to everyone any chance I get.

    Today was our first visit to Modeato Family Pet, and I am beyond thankful for their service! My 2.5 yr old Husky/Shepherd mix has been suffering from some skin allergies, and we had exhausted all of the OTC remedies, so we decided it was time to take her in to be seen by a professional. The office staff were extremely kind and helpful, and everyone was very understanding of my pups anxiety, which put me at ease as well. The technician and Dr. Were extremely thorough and didn't try to sell me the farm when it came to treatment options. A great experience all around! I would highly recommend Modesto Family Pet!!

    I take my pug puppy here. They have been great. Very nice and friendly. Prices are reasonable. So far so good.

    The single most positive and amazing experience that I have ever had at the vet. This is my second visit. The doctor is extremely patient, extremely helpful and the staff as a whole are awesome to deal with. You can tell that they really really care about your pet. My dog is difficult to deal with and they didn't give up on him. I am thankful that I came here instead of the other places in Modesto. If you are looking for a vet, I wouldn't consider any other place. I was very nervous about bringing my dog in and they really made it easy.

    We absolutely love Dr Gurman Josan ! And most of the staff ! I only say most because we haven't meet everyone yet ! 2 weeks after we acquired our Belgian Malinios he broke his toe ! We visited very often and they literally went above and beyond for us ! He loves going there ! And when we had to take our older dog there they formed and understood his needs. He's a very nervous dog and reacts to his nervousness with a not so friendly smile, then being aware of this they take their time with greeting him and allow us to visit (we call first of coarse) to help him get the socialization he needs and the visit to the vet without the stress of having to stay or for shots ! As we add to our clan or help get dogs off the streets Modesto Family pet is our very first thought. With a warm getting for the receptionist Suzanne (sorry if I spell it wrong ) we always know our pups are in the best care !

    Great staff, easy to get appointments, decent pricing. Reminds me of the old fashioned vet offices - not a big corporation!

    They really care about your pet and recognize that they are family to us.... Without using this to gouge you with unnecessarily huge billing

    I was so nervous when my 100 pound American Staffy, Harley, tore his ACL. He's a big boy with…read morelittle legs (lol) and a lot of personality, so the idea of surgery had me stressed out. But from the moment we walked into the office, I knew he was in the best hands. First of all, the place is clean (and doesn't smell like a typical vet office, which is a big win already). The entire team, from the receptionists to the vet techs, were kind, patient, and genuinely caring. I called a lot during the surgery (sorry, team ), and not once did anyone make me feel like I was a bother. They were always sweet and thoughtful, and took time to answer all my nervous questions. The doctor was amazing. He explained everything clearly, which helped me go from anxious to confident about the surgery. Harley's procedure went perfectly, and now we're on day five of recovery, his sutures look fantastic, the swelling has gone way down, and the bruising is almost gone too! Also worth mentioning, I had quotes from another vet that were almost double the cost. This team was honest, transparent, and incredibly fair. If you're looking for a vet who treats your fur baby like family (and also doesn't judge when your "baby" weighs 100 pounds and still tries to sit on your lap), this is the place. I can't thank them enough. 10/10 recommend, Harley gives it two paws up (when he's allowed to use both again

    On Feb. 27, 2026, Friday, our dog had surgery for lumps in her mouth & several in her body per the…read morewellness check that was done. We were glad the Vet Dr Hong, did a good thorough job and the surgery was very good. We like and we're happy with the Vet Drs, we've known Dr. Lattig for a long time & so are the new Drs. However, their customer service on the front desk is terrible, we made several calls to find out if our dog is ready for pick-up, not one answered the phone as the calls were made after 5pm, NO ONE picked up the call and it goes into a never ending loop, the selection we made was #3 which is a non emergency call which was just to find out if our dog is ready to pick-up. It was very frustrating & angered us since the office should have called us for courtesy call that our dog was ready for pick-up. We decided to just go in the center, there were at least 3 people in the front desk and yet no one picked up our call, the excuse was.. we should select #1 which is emergency, but we told them the call was not emergency so.. we were so upset that we told them we just spent $3,000.00 for my dog's care and could not even get a proper customer service. The management of Standiford Vet Hospital should change their answering machine to press 1 after 5pm so people calls get answered by the staff who seemed to not be aware of what customer service means at any given time in their 24hr hospital. This was a very very aggravating day for us. We hope that they train their front desk personnel much better especially on phone calls that should not be ignored at any given time in their 24hr service hospital.

    I'm not sure what has happened to this place recently, but the service has really gone downhill. We…read morebrought our dog in for a quality-of-life situation and understood there might be a wait since it's an emergency vet. However, once we were placed in a room, we waited for an hour and a half and no technician or veterinarian came in to check on us. No one provided any updates or explained what was going on. We ultimately decided to leave and go somewhere else. This was not how we wanted our little dog's final moments to be handled. It felt like there was very little communication or urgency. It was a very disappointing and upsetting experience during an already difficult time.
