    Alice getting admitted.
    Irina T.

    Dr Singh and nurse Jackie were great with my cat Alice. Unfortunately we saw too late that there was something wrong with her. Alice had lymphoma that advanced into multiple organs. She got better after a hospital treatment, however, she rapidly declined at home. Alice crossed the Rainbow bridge on September 6, 2024. She was a good, gentle girl, and we'll always miss her. I liked the staff and the facility. We did have a hiccup once when we showed up with Alice for an ultrasound and found the office closed, even though someone was supposed to be expecting us. I don't think this is a pattern, since I saw timely and attentive treatment other times, but my husband, for whom it was his first interaction with the hospital, was very upset. The service is not cheap. I believe you get what you pay for. Maybe if I didn't go to a budget vet for the whole duration of Alice's life, she'd get more thorough checkups and yearly blood tests, and we'd catch her health decline earlier. Maybe she could have lived a longer life. I don't know, but I'm not going to put cost as a primary concern when I select a vet for my next pet, if I get one.

    My dog Lotus... may she rest in peace

    Our regular vets at Primary Care were on vacation. We saw another new vet that after a number of tests ($$) could still not diagnosis the problem. I read the Limited reviews about Ocean Vets and decided to give them a try. Boy, am I glad I did. Their vet took one look at the X-rays and told us our baby's spine was fused. She had lost all feeling in her back legs and bodily functions. We had to have her euthanized; however their sincere empathy touched our hearts. Even though this was our first time there, they mailed us a sympathy card with heartfelt handwritten sentiments. I definitely would recommend this Veterinary Clinic!

    Highlighted parts shows contradictory language.

    A complete scam... The first time we took our dogs here we needed some shots and some deworming medicine. All was fine. The second time we took one of our dogs here we had a terrible experience. We were quoted surgery for a condition that our dog did not have. We brought our 1 year old dog in since he had an irritated eye thinking we would get some eyedrops. He is a young guy who loves to play and is always running around in the sand or dirt, so the odds of something getting stuck in his eye is not out of the picture. Doctor performed an exam in the back of house without us and then ran an eye ulcer test. We were NOT given the result of the eye ulcer test, the doctor just came in and said that our dog needed surgery due to his condition called entropion. Gave us some eyedrops. We left and called back to reschedule the surgery. Things to note: -I requested medical records of the appointment where they prescribed surgery as I had a bad gut feeling and were not given them as they "take 72 hours to process". They could not give me his temperature or his weight in writing until 72 hours later? - They asked for all $2600 up front for his surgery. After speaking to the doctor I was handed to the front desk to pay for it all upfront. - No pre and post op surgery notes were given. They just wanted me to schedule and pay. How would I be able to prepare my dog for his surgery? We wouldn't have known to not feed him that morning which would have been a huge problem. I had to ask for them. - Entropion is a condition that is a birth defect. How would my dog have that, he is 1 and he was perfectly healthy 2 weeks ago? - When receiving the doctor's notes 72 hours later, they contradict themselves. The first condition listed under rule out is entropion and the treatment plan is enteropion (spelled wrong) surgery - I went back and spoke with the front desk lady who promptly refunded me without a fight, which is also suspicious in my eyes. If you are confident in your services, why refund me? Seems to me as they are fully aware of what they are doing and they got caught. (Also glad I got the refund because again, it is a scam) When taken for a second opinion at a different vet in HB, he did have a piece of dust stuck in his eye. We got some eyedrops and he got an antibiotic shot and his eye has cleared up completely in 24 hours. Prescribing a veterinary surgery when unnecessary is veterinary malpractice. We love our dogs and would do anything for them, but luckily we escaped not putting our dog through a painful surgery for no reason. Avoid this place at all costs.

    I am so grateful to the team here. I called late Sunday night because I found blood in my cat's litter box. Panicked, assumed the worst and reached out. We were able to come right in last night, the reception helped take some info over the phone and we were seen immediately. The tech was wonderful, the veterinarian was wonderful, and I am so grateful for all of your compassion. Pricing was very fair (especially considering it was an after hours emergency visit). The staff went over charges with us prior to proceeding with any treatments and that was reassuring. At this point, I am considering switching to Dr. Singh as our new veterinarian. Thank you ALL so much!

    Opie after surgery

    This team was more than amazing. From the front desk staff to the vet techs and veterinarians, they were all so helpful polite and compassionate. They went above and beyond to provide our Opie with the emergent surgery he needed to stop his bleeding tumor. The whole team stayed there over night and after hours to ensure that not only Opie, but all patients that needed their help got the treatment they needed. I can't thank them enough! I will always appreciate what they did for us that night. No amount of words or donuts will show our gratitude for taking care of our big sweet boy. Thank you so very much!

    Love this place! I asked for an estimate for a neuter and was able to get surgery performed the same day. Customer service is excellent and the doctor appears to be very knowledgeable. Will definitely be coming back :)

Most importantly, the flea and scratching issues that we've been battling for so long are finally gone. The relief--for both our dog and us--has been huge.

My understanding from staff was that his medication could not be renewed until all vaccinations were up to date. Because my dog depends on this medication to prevent severe itching and skin irritation, I scheduled an appointment as soon as possible. During the appointment, I discussed my concern about the medication being withheld. The veterinarian took my dog to the back for his vaccinations and returned a few minutes later with serious news about his eyes. I was told there was a reddish-orange color at the back of the eye, that his pupils were not responding properly to light, and that he might be losing his vision. The doctor referred us to a specialist. It took about a month to get in with the specialist. After examining him, the specialist found no major issues--only a small cataract on one side that should be monitored. She said the reddish-orange color described earlier was part of normal eye anatomy (the tapetum) and that pupil changes can occur in dogs who are anxious or afraid. This entire process caused considerable worry and an additional $250 specialist visit. This experience was upsetting enough that we won't be going back. I'm sharing this so others can be aware of my experience and make clear, informed decisions when choosing care for their pets.

He was taken in quickly and I was initially reassured, which helped in that moment. After that, most of the communication shifted toward costs, approvals, and payments rather than clear medical updates. I understand veterinary care is expensive and estimates are necessary. However, this experience felt far more transactional, especially in moments that required compassion. I paid about $517 for basic treatment (antibiotics, patient room fees, iv fluids, vaccines, cone, and fees), but no diagnostics were completed. I was quoted $1,000+ for x-rays. Feeling overwhelmed by staffs, I ultimately left and sought care elsewhere. At another clinic, my dog received imaging, was diagnosed with a broken rib and dental injury, and received full treatment for a much more affordable price. Beyond the cost, that clinic felt far more present and personal, and the experience itself felt reassuring and grounded rather than transactional. Thankfully, he is now safe and recovering. After posting my original review, the business publicly responded and asked me to reach out directly. I did so immediately, in good faith, hoping for clarification or resolution. I never received a response. That gap between public reply and private silence is part of why I'm sharing this. That, combined with the experience in person, is what disappointed me most -- not just the visit itself, but the lack of follow-through afterward. When a business responds publicly but doesn't continue that same level of communication privately, it raises concerns about sincerity and whether the response is about resolution or reputation.

They ran urine and blood tests as well as x-rays. Her urine and blood results came out normal so she may have just had an infection that went away. However, they noticed a metal bottle cap in her stomach! Ocean often eats random things off the ground but she wouldn't have eaten a bottle cap unless it was in some food! Regardless, they tried a method and thought she would be able to pass it in the next couple of days. Well, a whole week passed and it didn't. So, we took her back and they needed to surgically remove it. The procedure seemed to go smoothly. We picked her up at the end of the day and she was still out of it, but relieved to come home and was able to drink and eat. We gave her medications as prescribed. The incision was about 9 inches across Ocean's belly. We did our best to keep it covered, but she did scratch it a bit. At her follow up appointment, they removed the sutures and provided antibiotics and a solution to keep it clean. At her third follow up, they provided antibiotics and ointment for the redness, but she healed pretty well in a matter of weeks. They said going through the esophagus would have damaged it, so this was the best approach to getting the bottle cap out. As a souvenir, they gave us the cap in a ziplock bag and we could see that it was starting to rust. They were great about calling and checking up on her and they did an excellent job stitching her back up. They gave us an estimate range of the cost prior to the procedure and luckily, it was on the lower end, but still a dent in our wallets. Ocean was a champ through this healing process despite not knowing what had even happened to her! Thanks again to the team here for helping Ocean out!

Our regular vet initially gave antibiotics and medication, and he said if it happens again, we should take her to the hospital for more test as he was thinking there was something in her bladder like stones.

They were able to see us the same day. The front desk staff was very kind and welcoming, and even though the place is currently remodeling, everything still felt organized and efficient. They performed an X-ray, blood test and urinalysis, found a bladder stone, and clearly explained the situation and treatment options. Because the stone was too large to pass naturally, surgery was recommended. They walked us through the procedure, provided a clear estimate, and scheduled surgery for the very next day. The entire visit took about 3 hours, and we felt our dog was in very good hands the whole time. She is now on the road to recovery, and we're so grateful for the care she received. We also appreciate that this hospital is closer to home -- we've definitely found our new vet. Thank you to the whole team for taking such good care of our girl.

The appointment was for a comprehensive exam which should've took 1-2 hours maximum. Mind you, I've been to other Banfield locations, and have done this exact appointment before, never had I had a bad experience until I scheduled with the Seal Beach, CA location. The entire day, I waited around for a phone call or some sort of communication, until 4-5 hours go by, and I'm starting to get worried, so I call the location and they tell me that they have been "really busy" and haven't even seen my dog yet. Really??? After 4-5 hours, you haven't even seen my dog. So meaning to say, my dog has been waiting there, locked in a cage and getting anxious due to your lack of time management?! Look, I understand that in certain cases, we have to prioritize urgent matters first, we are no means feeling entitled to being first on the list of being seen. However, if your office is behind on time so significantly where a few hours go by and you haven't even seen or touched my pet yet, then maybe it's best to reach out to the owners and reschedule for another time. After 5:15, we were finally able to see somebody at the front desk, (they close at 5) and we were told that it was going to be a little longer. I just think this whole matter was so unprofessional. I've been to the Banfield in Long Beach, Downey and Huntington Beach for our previous appointments and I regret bringing my pet here. Not only was it an inconvenience for me; but it took a toll on my pup who also suffers from anxiety. Which the employee blamed my pet for having anxiety and suggests to give medication. How about I suggest for you guys to not schedule or overbook appointments that you're unable to handle so that every pet gets the care they deserve and pay for. Instead of making a pet be caged for over 5 hours because of mismanaged time on your end. I'm absolutely stunned at the lack of accountability on Banfield specifically the team at Seal Beach, CA. If you love your pet and value your time, this is your warning sign to steer clear of this location at all costs.
