    Feeling comfy and happy again!
    Camerynne L.

    10/10! Great communication, great pricing, great service all around! I recently brought my maltese in for a foxtail stuck in her ear. Dr. Nakamura was thorough in explaining the procedure and answering all my questions. Staffs were all VERY friendly and helpful. I am not from the area but the drive is definitely worth it!

    Wife and son in waiting area at Olive Tree. Lol.

    We had an awful experience here. We 100% do not recommend this place. Of course as long as things go hunky dory there won't be an issue but what about when things aren't like a fairly tale. I'm not going into great detail and really trying to leave emotion out as I don't want the review flagged and removed. By the way... this is one of maybe two or three poor reviews I've left for a small business. We don't feel this vet is ethical or there for the care of the animals. They are there to make money and if they help some animals along the way, then that just happens as a secondary concern. You as the customer better come in with your tail between your legs too. They were very bad and rude to an elderly woman for the main complaint I have, they charge $200 for a bag of $99 Hills Science Diet Dogfood - you can check that price anywhere you like, and they just showed themselves as a low and careless group. We switched our dogs over to another clinic after that day with the elderly woman incident. We absolutely had enough of the rudeness and just meanness. The treatment they gave that elderly woman was shameful. They argued it was her attitude... people she is almost 100 years old. Why? It hurt our feelings bad seeing this but you also were rude to us. I've probably said too much here for yelp. Dear Dr./Vet/Owner, almost no matter what, you shouldn't treat elderly people like that, again almost no matter what - meaning even if you think they are rude - again they are elderly and have issues maybe, just don't behave like that in life period. Please reflect and train on this and just stop being like that. We will never come back though. The new place treated us so well from the moment we picked up the phone and called them to the moment one of our dogs even tried to bite them... they still treated us calmly and kindly and gave us Tramadol for the dog for the next appointment - they were friendly and nice. Smh and will never forget this. I need a tramadol now after reliving being a client of yours. The elderly lady. Wow. ******* See their response and ours, pics below. Good luck! Edit 12/18/25: Replying to your dishonest comment and this is just exactly what I was talking about... People, just read the review and his response. My name is Mark and you have the first letter of my last name; our dog is Orion, he's the Boxer dog in the video we posted, the other dog is Echo. You are so bad and dishonest. You did a cryptorchid neutering on him and left a huge lump of scar tissue but that didn't bother us that much, we took it as part of fixing by dog, that was the second to last interaction we had at your office, your scale didn't work when we came in for the follow up, only saying that to share and have you realize we know you and your office. We paid something like $1500 for the cryptorchid surgery. We used to pay for your $200 bags of Hills Science Diet until we saw everywhere else sells it for $100. Are you still going to try to say I'm lying? After the follow up and incident, we didn't come back. But I want to be clear and show how dishonest you are being right now. We were clients there and you're being terribly unethical again. Are you seriously taking the stance of calling the my review fake news? That's a little confusing. I'll find the receipt and post a pic of it for everyone to see what a dishonest statement you are publicly making and how you seem to be the harasser and escalator. I see where it's all coming from at the office now. Again the experience in person tested our resolve and patience to say the least, now you go out of your way to attempt to fool people into thinking my review is a lie. That is something else entirely. I'll post a pic of the last receipt if that helps you and I think it will certainly help anyone who reads your reviews.

    Hunter, age 2 months, his 2nd puppy check-up

    We have been clients of Olive Tree Veterinary Hospital (previously Animal Hospital of Pleasanton) since shortly after they opened. We have three dogs. The staff has always been friendly, caring, and attentive, as are the veterinarians. Their fees are reasonable, and they are willing to fit in urgent matters. We even brought in some friends' puppies for their initial veterinary to ensure they were looked at, and their mama for spaying afterwards. We have used, contacted, or conversed with friends about most, if not all, veterinarian offices in Pleasanton over the last 36 years. We left two offices because they were quite pushy on the up-sell. Another office near our home did not want to see us about an urgent matter because they were too busy to be bothered. Others we looked at were unreasonably pricy. Olive Tree Veterinary Hospital is good for all concerns. We like them for that.

    Same day service! Recently my dog started vomiting randomly. No clinics in the area would take me in but the Olive Tree staff accommodated me swiftly! They helped comfort me, Tatiana and Keisha went above and beyond, and reassured me my dog would be okay.

    AMAZING STAFF! I'm from out of town and my dog Mochi needed a few vaccines to get her back home. The staff is very kind and efficient. Dr. Nakamura was especially easy to work with. They were able to get me in same day and get me out in a timely manner to accommodate my schedule. I highly recommend for anyone in the area.

    Chloe and a couple pups

    This hospital and staff are AMAZING. I had an emergency with my pregnant 5 year old poodle mix and they jumped right to action. I was completely unaware that my baby had been vomiting all week long due to a busy work week and one day I woke up and she was extremely lethargic and non responsive. I thought she may have been having a tough labor, but after running labs I found out my dog was pretty much dying. Upon the tender and wonderful care of Dr.Nakamura and her staff, Chloe received some meds,fluids,love and we found out she was having 7 puppies! The very next evening she went into labor, it was rough, but with the help of my kids, we successfully delivered 5 living pups. Less than a week later, Chloe was having some issues due to her systemic infection and we had to rush her back in. Without ANY hesitation, Dr.Nakamura and her wonderful techs treated her AGAIN. A month and a half later, Miss Chloe decided to go missing and was taken in to the shelter. I contacted the hospital and they sent her records over RIGHT AWAY! Thanks to this hospital, my family pet was saved and now we have cute little puppies to love on as well. You will not regret coming here.

He didn't try to bite them, Lucky Charm seemed at ease in a way he's never been at his old veterinary clinic the last 3 years. Who cares that it takes 45 min to an hour to drive there, each way..... we all know we will do anything for our loved ones, furry or otherwise. Peace of mind knowing my baby is loved and cared for immediately when I walked thru the door is just priceless. I don't know what the other reviews meant when they mentioned anything bad at Animal Center of Pleasanton; it's ridiculous. Nothing but the VERY best for my little Lucky Charm; and Animal Medical Center, all staff and Dr C ARE THE VERY BEST. I say: BRAVO~~~~ and Thank You Dr and Staff~ u ROCK!!!!

It was named "…read moreAnimal hospital of Pleasanton" and I wonder the name change may be due to the string of negative issues documented in the news. The news below doesn't surprise us as the vet simply suggests us to let our dog to have blood test for her "itchiness". There was no examination at all as the vet was scared of our dog. He simply pulled our dog's leash forcibly as if he doesn't know how to deal with a dog. As the blood result shows nothing, he suggests us to run fecal test to identify the issue. - just for her itchiness.

    I've been waiting to do this review for a long time. It's been a year since my dog passed. And…read moreit's been very difficult to cope with. I didn't have the emotional strength to relive my experience. I still mourn him. Before his first assessment for treatment, knew my dog had a heart murmur. But because he was fine and showed no serious symptoms, I prolonged taking him to the vet. The time I decided to do so, i would travel one hour to this vet because I wanted him to have the best care and so I thought. On his first visit, they kept him for a few hours to do tests. When I got him back he was not the same. He all of a sudden to started to have fainting symptoms daily. He would collapse to the floor. I would rush him outside for first aid and sometimes give him mouth to mouth. It was scary. From that day forward his health went progressively down as he grew weaker and weaker. And the bills just got bigger and bigger. ImI was expected to take him every six months for sonogram (different location), x ray and bloodwork. I would joke and say I'm going to rename him Louie because that's what he's costing me. A LV bag every time. I love my dog dearly and wanted to do whatever I could to keep him going. But I couldn't help to think, did they do something to my dog sicker for profits? I know I can't make that claim unless I have proof. All I know is how sick he got after that first visit. On my last assessment, I told them I can't afford another x ray and sonogram (VEG). Just the bloodwork. So they did what they did and sent him out. There was no consultation of the findings which I thought was weird. I traveled an hour to bring him to this place, have spent thousands of dollars and that's it? He died two months later. I have to write this in case anyone has had the same experience. I don't want to be told you should have did this or that. Or maybe this and that. It's too late. I just wanted to share my experience in case someone has had the same. That's all.

She was kind, patient, informative, reassuring, and even helped us find some levity in an otherwise terrible moment. She could tell Gus needed her, and she came to us on a Sunday. She neither rushed us, nor painfully prolonged the experience. She listened to us carefully and took the extra step of discreetly making notes as we shared about Gus. With these tidbits, she sent us a very thoughtful and personalized card. We still have it. We will be forever grateful to Dr. Wensing for guiding us through losing our beloved dog.

Our sweet girl's health declined very suddenly...she couldn't sleep, was struggling to breathe, and her heart was failing. We were faced with the difficult choice of going to a vet clinic or finding an in-home euthanasia service. We found Heaven from Home and reached out to Dr. Wensing. Although she was initially fully booked, she took the time to speak with us and even recommended other in-home services to try. Unfortunately, none had availability, and we were preparing ourselves for a traditional vet visit...something we knew would cause our already fragile girl a lot of anxiety. Then, Dr. Wensing called back. She had a cancellation and could come that same day. It truly felt like a blessing. She arrived with such compassion and calm presence, and because of her, our girl was able to pass peacefully in the comfort of her own home, surrounded by her family. It meant everything to us to give her that kind of goodbye. We could not have asked for a more caring, professional, and humane experience during one of the most heartbreaking moments of our lives. If you are facing a similar situation, I cannot recommend Dr. Wensing and Heaven from Home enough. We are forever grateful for the kindness and dignity she gave our beloved companion in her final moments.
