Each person from the front desk, techs, and especially the surgeon Dr. Schulman worked in harmony together and with the utmost professionalism. Coming from a place of emergency and despair and fear over our beloved puppy's health, the whole team helped put our mind and heart at ease with her first surgery. The whole experience makes me reflect on knowing there are carers and healers like this in this world who dedicate their time and lives to help you when you NEED it the most, i'm beyond grateful. This team has the skill and responsiveness and level of expertise that astonished us. In addition, it stood out to me that the office was so clean, no strange overpowering cleaning solution or even general animal smells. Dare I say, it even smelled good. The parking was also plentiful, the roses were in bloom outside, and they had a little coffee station in the waiting room. Everything was pleasant. For now, we're on the road to recovery ‍

From the moment I walked in, he was not only incredibly kind and calm, but also felt like a true gentleman and a deeply caring human being someone who goes far beyond just doing his job as a vet. My bird had fabric tangled around his toes from a blanket, and I was honestly terrified he might lose his leg or need to be put to sleep. We had been struggling for days trying to carefully remove it ourselves, even using scissors, but nothing worked. Dr. Molnar handled everything so calmly and efficiently--it took him only a few minutes to do what we had been struggling with for so long. I still don't know how he managed it so quickly and gently, but I do know my little bird is now completely free, safe, and happily back to himself again. I left feeling so relieved and so thankful. It's rare to meet a doctor who treats your animals with this much care, patience, and heart. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Molnar to anyone who loves their pets. I won't be taking my birds or my dog anywhere else from now on he has truly earned my trust.

I have never met a veterinarian that is as good of a clinician and a diagnostician his Dr. Molnar. He was able to see in the x-rays something that was missed prior by three avian veterinarians. He is extremely personable and knowledgeable and I highly recommend him. He thoroughly explained the problem and we came up with a game plan. It is so clear that he cares about the well-being of animals. I also want to give thanks to Cristine. She was so incredibly gracious and kind in getting me in on such short notice. This hospital is definitely doing something right. And I feel so at ease, knowing that my bird is in good hands. I have found my forever vet.

This is not my first review of our beloved Dr G, and I just recommended her to 6 more people again just these past 2 weeks. I always say to people I give her card to: "you will discover she is an Earth Angel - if she moved to a different town, I'd take my pup there... When you find a great vet, they are Gold! She's not only compassionate, present and knowledgeable, but also she does not oversell." Besides all the regular check ups, Dr G. has performed 2 substantial surgeries on my pup in the last 8 years here at Paws & Claws; she has been extremely kind, providing valuable reassuring step-by-step updates throughout, especially aware that I had lost my beloved first dog, (with a different vet), when he did not make it through the anesthesia... In the 8 years Dr G. has been our one and only vet; everyone I have sent to Dr G. has fallen in love with her, and has thanked me for the referral. I found her many years ago when I was dissatisfied with a busy veterinary front desk in Sherman Oaks, after they had made errors in my first dog's chart. Unfortunately he passed, and I learned that finding the RIGHT professional truly makes ALL the difference. So yes, I still drive from Sherman Oaks. Gratefully so :) I am thankful that my cherished pups are her patients. Her ethics, her care, her kindness, her knowledge, her integrity - she's our number 1!!!

I decided to do so to share my experience and allow an opportunity for growth. I wanted to be proactive so I am thankful this wasn't an emergency. My pup has extreme allergy issues. I recently moved to So Cal from No Cal and started a new vet relationship. I explained to Dr. C what the pups experience had been and what I needed. I thought that went well. Scheduled a follow up visit to check in and review protocol as this is when his allergies take a bad turn. I specifically requested Dr c again and was told to come on a Tuesday. I arrived 10 mind ahead of appt to give them time to check me in and to be respectful of their time. First - Dr C wasn't even scheduled to work that day. It appears they may have double booked as there was another couple waiting with their pup. We both were taken to a room and the other couple were seen right away. I waited over half an hour and nothing. When I stepped out to ask if the vet tech could at least vaccinate the pup that seemed to throw everyone for a loop. Please no it is a large and appears to be quiet office. Many people seem to have not a lot going on and it appeared as if I may be disturbing then rather that being a paying customer with a request. When after standing around and nothing seemed to be happening other than just wait around. I thought this wouldn't work and left and got what seemed not of pure intent with a have a good day. If you are a parent you know what I mean when I say tone wasn't genuine. Now I am not angry just disappointed at people lack if care and kindness. I chose to drive further looking for a responsive and kind business. For me, this is not it. I was able to start service with a new vet within 2 miles from where I live. My message, be kind but expect the same in return. If not, go somewhere else. That is all we can do.

The staff are friendly, unhurried, and coordinate well with one another and with the doctors. Now for the stuff that matters most: Compassion. I think of compassion as understanding someone's suffering, and then acting to soothe that suffering. By this definition, Dr. Sheahan is one of the most compassionate people I have ever met. When I first brought our cat Benny to her for a swollen eye, she used books, photos, videos, and a whiteboard to give me a clear idea of what she was thinking. She gradually unfolded the possiblity of cancer, so that I had time to process it both mentally and emotionally. She outlined the testing options step by step in plain language. She gave me some privacy to collect my thoughts, and then returned to complete our conversation. She called *after hours* to convince a radiology company to expedite Benny's CT scan. When the tests confirmed her suspicions, she didn't announce the bad news and then walk away. Instead, she spoke with gentleness and sat with my daughter and me in our grief. When we asked about next steps, she didn't tell us to go find a cancer specialist. Instead, the following morning she called *before office hours* to speak directly with the oncologist she trusts, to start Benny on treatment and get him scheduled. And Dr. Sheahan did this on her *own day off,* keeping me in the loop by phone and text. All while tending to her garden, and making me laugh. As a retired pediatrician myself, the highest praise I can give her is this: I wish she were *my* primary care doctor.

Over the course of the day, her right eye became completely cloudy and I knew she had to see an ophthalmologist right away. Thankfully Yelp led me to the Veterinary Eye Clinic, and the amazing Dr. Sheahan! My family and I will forever be grateful Dr. Sheahan was able prescribe medications to help us heal our dog's severely infected corneal ulcer. Dr. Sheahan explained everything thoroughly as she examined Pebbles and actually showed me pictures of the complications to look out for. She was frank about the high risk of rupture with any impact and detailed the precautions that the we needed to take. She was straightforward about the low odds of healing without surgery due to the severity of the ulcer. Although 1:3 odds of healing with medication sounded grim, with Dr. Sheahan's guidance and recommendations, we got the miracle we needed! Now, 7 months later we got the best news possible!! Her corneal ulcer which was initially 99% deep had fully healed! I knew from reading other reviews about Dr. Sheahan that Pebbles was in the best hands with the Veterinary Eye Clinic. I am happy to be able to relate my wonderful experience and immense gratitude for Dr. Sheahan's kindness, frankness, and sage advice. I love that there are three locations, so that when Pebbles needed her medication refilled, we were able to go to a closer clinic in Alhambra. For checkups though, it has absolutely been worth the long drive to Pomona. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts

I asked how much and she seemed very annoyed her reply "idk it depends on the size of the dog" I told her he was 5lbs and she let out a sigh because she had to look it up. She gave me a price range. Then I asked if the cremation was done individually or in a group she told me it was in a group so I told her I'd give her a call back because I wanted to talk to my fiancé about if that's what we wanted to do with him. I then told the woman that we were already patients there and her whole attitude changed, her tone of voice got soft and was then apologetic. It rubbed me the wrong way so we took our Leo else where to say goodbye. The vet techs and the vet who did our acupuncture were always so kind but their receptionists always seemed annoyed to be there and after this experience over the phone I will no longer be recommending this vet. Leo really liked the vet techs, so unfortunate. Saying bye to a pet is not easy, especially to make the call to set up the appointment so you'd think they'd have SOME compassion for these situations. Very disappointed.
