Dr Katie is compassionate , knowledgeable and kind Her practice offers many different modalities such as acupuncture, chiropractic therapies, laser and massage therapy. She is also able to offer you plain no nonsense advice on how to improve and maintain the quality of life of our fur babies. Her team is also amazing and caring and fun ! I highly recommend Dr Katie Kangas if you are looking for a integrative/holistic veterinarian in the San Diego area ( but we drive from the inland empire because we love her so much )

I did research on where to take my dog for a spay for years…read more It was very stressful reading studies, forums, and different opinions on whether we should do a traditional spay, an OSS, or ultimately a laparoscopic ovariectomy (LOVE spay). After a lot of research, we decided the LOVE spay was the best option for our girl. I came across Dr. Ryan Tedder at Coastal Animal Hospital. I was nervous about the procedure, but wow, this doctor is an absolute GEM. If only everyone was like him! He took the time to fully explain the LOVE spay procedure, answered all of our questions, and eased every doubt we had. The day came, and it was a successful surgery. Dr. Tedder called afterward, walked us through exactly how everything went, and when we picked her up, he went through everything again with us and explained her recovery. This is a far drive for us, but we will absolutely make it every single time if it means receiving this level of care for our girl. If you're worried about the LOVE spay or are thinking about this clinic, I promise you this is the right place. The staff is great, with the all-star Dr. Tedder manning the helm. Thank you for taking such amazing care of our girl.

She is kind, caring, considerate, and truly cares about not only the pets that she takes care of, but also the families who obviously love them.

We could tell how emotionally it was for her as well, showing us how she's such a caring person. She is amazing!

Look no further than Moonlight Vet Veterinary Center as this is a family owned veterinary hospital…read moreand not corporate owned! Dr. Hackett, Dr. Halsey and Dr. Soares are awesome. I trust this business completely and I'm so glad to have found them. I live in Oceanside and am willing to travel to Encinitas so my dogs get the best pet care available. Also, they have convenient hours from 11 AM until 9 PM weekdays and Saturday hours too. This is very convenient with my busy work schedule, as most vet clinics are usually open daytime and not available in the evening.. At Moonlight Vet, they put my pets first and always address my concerns. They are always accommodating and I am confident bringing my pets here. In today's world and economy of corporate takeovers, you have to be careful of other businesses that corporate owned and are "numbers driven" which can cause a hardship. I feel confident bringing my dogs to moonlight Vet. Also, they accept Care Credit with financing that offers 0% deferred interest. I have Pet Insurance and highly recommend everyone gets it before the need arises.

We were quoted 10k dollars in LA and I just knew we needed a day to do some research and cannot believe I found Dr Woods! If we lived closer she would 1000% be our vet.

Thank you all so much. Highly recommend Cardiff Animal Hospital.

I went, was trying to go to various vets for opinions however my dog a Pomeranian. He was 15. He…read morehad a nervous tick every time he would be at the table being assessed. He would stress out so much. The doctor kept telling me to put him down because of it. She was very pushy about it. She said I was being a horrible person to keep him alive. Well I went to a different place that was able to save his life at a reasonable price. They found his heart was the problem, was the reason he was building up water fluid in his belly, and pooping blood. He got meds and he lived another year and a half. It was better than having him put to sleep that day. I was crying, visibly upset. He was my baby. I knew my dog, I told her he is like that. He gets so nervous he has a nervous reaction and she said no that's not normal. He must have neurological problems. I think doctors should consider the opinion of the pet parent who knows their dogs best. I am so upset at the prices the American vets charge pet parents specially during this hard struggling economy. Most have been taken over by for profit systems and can care less for the pets it's such a shame. Not sure if this one has but the prices that are astronomical from most makes me believe so.

My 1-year old cat was spayed by Dr. Konda and it was the easiest experience I've ever had with…read morespaying a pet. He put dissolvable stitches on the inside. There was no blood or swollen area. It was amazing. My cat took the cone off when we got home. I watched her and she never licked or scratched the area, therefore I didn't put the cone back on. She healed really well and she didn't show any signs of pain. Dr. Konda's technique is amazing, almost magical. If your pet needs to be spayed or neutered, please bring them to Dr. Konda. It will be the easiest experience you've ever had for spaying or neutering your pet!

I thought she was outstanding - her bedside manner and demeanor were perfect for me. This may sound strange, but she didn't say a whole lot, though she was very clear about the process and what she was about to do through every step. I was deep in thought most of the time and didn't really want to talk. Maybe Dr Benson "read" that, or maybe that is just how she is, but either way it was perfect for me. I really can't say enough good things about the whole process.

Here's a more balanced and effective way to express your frustration while removing accusatory…read morephrasing and keeping the tone respectful but firm: *** I'm very disappointed about my father's recent experience at the Drake Center. He's traveled the country and has never encountered a situation where caring for his elderly dog cost over $1,000 without being clearly informed beforehand. My concern is that the costs were not explained to him in advance, leaving him with an unexpectedly large bill that he could not reasonably afford. As an 80-year-old veteran, he trusted the staff to be transparent about pricing, and that trust was shaken. He also has early stage dementia, which makes it worse. While I'm sure the care provided to the pets is exceptional, I strongly believe clients deserve full visibility into expected costs before services are performed. Clear communication is essential, especially when serving elderly clients. My suggestion is to get a second opinion and find a place that is more affordable.

What other vet is open on a Sunday besides an emergency vet?! Love ALL the staff-knowledgeable, professional, kind, caring & nice! The tech before the vet came in, asked really good questions to help understand the issue. Loved that Dr. Greenfield got down on the floor to greet our little boy AND remembered what he treated him last for over 1/2 a year ago. Asking update questions. Both natural help & medical from their vets. Only took seconds for Dr. Greenfield to figure out what caused our little boy Cashew's issue by asking us the perfect questions and info that triggered us to give the issue's answer. He gave us a natural suppliment to help that they had there. Once home, our little boy is regular again and feeling so much better. The BEST vet clinic ever! Seriously! We've had so many bad, thank God we found this place and Dr. Sheila again too!
