She's incredibly smart, compassionate, and genuinely cares about the animals she treats. Even though she's very busy, she always makes herself available and takes the time to listen and make sure I feel comfortable with what's being recommended for our little pup. I really appreciate that she's open to feedback and easy to talk to. I trust her advice and also think she's just a really cool person. The office staff is also great. They're kind, friendly, and usually try to to get back to me quickly. I've only met one of the other vets, Dr. Becker, but she was also fantastic. Highly recommend!

Back in October my cat suffered a cat-esthrophic injury. He was attacked by a raccoon who chomped…read moreoff the end of his tail and nearly ripped off his foot (photo included). Dr. Bolich is our vet and I texted her immediately after the injury... she was on vacation out of state and gave me a great referral to an emergency vet. At the time, Dr Bolich was at the other site before moving to this location. The emergency vet she referred me to recommended amputation due to the injury and age of my cat (9 years old). Dr. Bolich had also said it was likely we would need to amputate due to the infection my cat got from the injury. He's an outdoor kitty and I knew if we had to amputate him he wouldn't want to live any longer. I begged Dr. Bolich to not remove his leg. She gave us a wild option: we could treat his wound with honey. It was expensive and the wound had to be re-wrapped every 3 days for a few months- but she gave us the options. We chose to take a risk and try therapy suggested knowing it might be in vain. Well, it worked. My cat isn't a nice guy to most humans - he's an ex-feral we adopted as a kitten and he can be a bit spicy, but the team Dr. Bolich has worked wonders. As you can see in his photos attached the honey treatment worked! His ligaments, muscle, skin and fat grew back in a couple months time. It's been eight months since his injury and he now has a full coat of fur covering his old wound! Dr. Jen even made friends with Jax and had him so relaxed in an uncomfortable environment. Thank you, Dr. Bolich, for your excellent and quick thinking and being open to an out-the-box treatment that saved our kitty and his leg. We meow you VCA!

He originally went in for acute back pain but has been back regularly for palliative care for his arthritis and kidney disease. It has made a tremendous difference in his comfort level.

The room for acupuncture is very comfortable for both me and my dog, with air purifiers, a white noise machine, and a heat lamp if needed (which my dog loves). Dr. Magner is gentle and kind.

WE LOVE Camino Real Pet Clinic! All their staff is kind, attentive and caring. We were recommended…read morelast year around November to this clinic by my pup's groomer after she found some of Butter's rotten teeth that needed to take care of. Of all the clinics that I called, Camino Real was the most attentive one. They actually care about your pet. Dr. Ten, Butter's vet, made sure to check up fully on Butter and had all the necessary lab works before the procedure. Dr. Ten explained to me what to expect and kept me informed all the time on the day of the procedure. Though Butter needed to have more teeth extracted than originally planned, Dr. Ten only charged us for her hours, not per tooth. Thus, I'm so grateful to Dr. Ten and Camino Real Pet Clinic for their reasonable charge and superb service! We've been a regular customer of Camino Real Pet Clinic ever since. We live in San Jose but I'm willing to drive Butter here for quality and caring pet services. The clinic is a quaint historical house and has a small parking lot in the back and along its side and one spot in the front. It can accommodate up to 5 cars, I believe. I've never had problem finding parking here. Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Ten and the Camino Real Pet Clinic to anyone!

It also helps that he has become best friends with one of her recent foster fails I love that they only take small (or very calm larger dogs), allow them to cuddle in bed and most importantly only use positive reinforcement. I always trust that he is being treated as if he was one of their own. Could not recommend Lynda or her services enough. We feel so lucky to have found her!

Former Vet owner Doctor Cowing is unfortunately retired. This Practice now like many others are exploiting by charging over the top pricing. Adopting from a Shelter..... My thoughts; Truth is, senior dogs don't get adopted because folks fear vet bills that cost more than car repairs. Why not a "public defender" model from the ASPCA--free or low-cost vet care for adopted seniors? They've got the donations, the vets could chip in hours, and it would save lives. And while we're at it, stop feeding dogs the kibble equivalent of fast food. Senior pets deserve decent chow and medical backup. More adoptions, less shelter crowvding, happier tails.f

We've been taking our little pup to this establishment for 3-4 years or so for routine check ups,…read moredental cleanings, and have been happy with the care. Last month, our 11 year old hopped off the couch, cried out and was walking around lifting her hind leg without putting any weight on it. We took her to Animal Cove for an exam, where the veterinarian initially greeted us warmly. He diagnosed a grade 1-2 subluxated patella which he said was completely normal in this breed, monitor for a month and if still limping then surgery for the patella could be recommended. I did mention she wasn't just limping but pulling her leg up, and I felt rushed out and described to as a normal condition for her breed. An NSAID medication was prescribed for the month. Because of this encounter that sat uncomfortable with me, we took her in for a second opinion at a veterinarian I had taken my past fur baby to. This vet immediately identified that yes there was a subluxated patella, but also a completely torn ligament in her knee which could undergo surgery. We've since completed a referral to a surgeon the same week. Our pup has undergone surgery primarily for her fully torn knee ligament, and since the surgeon was at the site also operated on her subluxated patella, two weeks ago. I could recommend this establishment for routine care, but would advise caution for any urgent or emergent care for any differential diagnoses.

Michaela, our vet tech, was actually the one who answered the phone and reassured us that coming in was the right call. She was so friendly, nurturing, and gentle with Bentley, and immediately helped put us at ease. Bentley is usually very nervous at the vet, but he did great with Michaela right away, which says a lot. Dr. Kuang was thorough, kind, and welcoming. She took the time to carefully evaluate Bentley and explain everything to us in a way that felt thoughtful and reassuring. The whole visit felt seamless and easy, which is not something you typically expect from an emergency vet. My husband and I were completely exhausted, and they made us feel just as taken care of as Bentley. The office itself was incredibly clean and aesthetically pleasing, with a comfortable waiting area, cozy chairs, and even a great selection of snacks and drinks, such nice touch that most vets dont have. On top of everything, the pricing was very reasonable. We're so grateful for the care Bentley received and would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing emergency veterinary care.

They also insisted our 15 lb dog needed emergency surgery right away to avoid amputation and tried to pressure and guilt us into agreeing, even calling us "bad owners" for wanting a second opinion. We took our dog to another surgeon without mentioning anything Lenity had said. The second vet told us surgery was completely unnecessary and could actually cause more harm than good due to her size and injury. We felt Lenity used fear, guilt, and inflated pricing to push an unnecessary procedure that could have harmed our dog.
