My only complaint is that now you have my dog completely obsessed with the dog treats there. He looks at me differently when I give him the treats we have at home, so I guess that means I'll have to come back to the store for more dog treats!

We came in as first time paw-rents. We just adopted our 8 week old puppy 8/8/'26 and the next day, the whole day he's been hacking/coughing. By Monday, I was already calling our vet offices to see if I can get him in. I asked around and Modern Animal was highly recommended by one of my friends so we gave it a shot. I wanted to like this place so much as it's convenient and I like their whole system of membership, I went in thinking we're gonna get a membership. The vet was concerned with the coughing and wanted to run an xray, parvo and fecal tests even when told he does not have any fever, his appetite is pretty good and he's quite energetic. When the vet assistant came in to give us the run down, she made a comment on how our puppy is so lethargic when she just entered the room. Like maybe consider that he's also just a puppy that is needing a nap? We declined it as we wanted to get a second opinion and they sent us with some antibiotics and guess what else? A cat treat......for our dog. So bummed about this experience as I really wanted to like this place.

Look, human error happens, I get it. What's incredibly frustrating is that we specifically brought up our concerns about it being a spine issue, only to be dismissed. Flash forward to an emergency hospital visit over the weekend and... shocker! Our dachshund did, in fact, have a spinal issue. Who could have possibly predicted that? We had the official IVDD diagnosis sent over to this clinic so we could get the proper medication. Just to be explicitly clear, Family Animal Hospital is the one who prescribed these meds. After a couple days, our dog had an adverse reaction to one of them. Having no idea which medication was the cause, because, yanno, I'm not a vet, I called this clinic for advice on what was safe to keep giving her. The response? The doctor who treated her wasn't in today, so they'd just leave a note and I could wait to hear back tomorrow. My dog has IVDD. She is in extreme pain without her meds. They know this, and they prescribed them. Am I supposed to just guess which ones will help her and which ones will make her stomach bleed? No advice? Nothing? Ok, cool. When I asked if they could at least ask the doctor who was currently in the office for input, I was told: "Oh, you'd have to bring her in and pay an exam fee so she can see what's going on herself since it's not her patient." Right. Let me get right on loading up my dog, who is currently riddled with pain at the slightest movement of her spine and dealing with newly developing stomach distress, just to stress her out with an unnecessary vet visit. All so a doctor working at the exact same clinic can look at the diagnosis and chart that are already in your system. It is apparently physically impossible for a veterinarian to look at a computer screen and give a safety directive on medications their own clinic dispensed unless they get another credit card swipe first. Otherwise, I guess I just have to wait until tomorrow and hope my dog survives the night. & I'll probably get some generic response about legality and medical safety, but telling a loyal client to stop a medication because the dog is having a clear adverse reaction isn't a legal liability. It's basic emergency triage. You didn't refuse to help because of the law. You refused because my credit card wasn't actively swiping at the front desk. The doctor was there and the chart was there but basic advice for a suffering animal was held hostage behind another exam fee. All that to say : If you want to dump over $1,000 into a clinic for a misdiagnosis, zero continuity of care, and a complete lack of basic empathy, this is the spot for you. But I know I won't be bringing any of my animals back here, and honestly, you shouldn't either.

I recently switched my primary vet for all 3 of my dogs because I felt like the care at All…read moreCreatures had become extremely overpriced and focused more on upselling than the actual needs of my pets. My 9-year-old pug has previously had a severe reaction to the rabies vaccine, which I explained multiple times. Despite this, they refused to give her Cytopoint allergy injection unless she also received the rabies vaccine. Considering she is an indoor pug with a documented vaccine reaction history, this felt very concerning and unnecessary. I also brought in another one of my dogs for Cytopoint, and they insisted on doing a skin scrape first, which added another $200 to the visit. They ultimately found nothing under the microscope. On top of that, they presented an iPad full of "treatment options" recommending over $1,000 worth of additional tests, medications, and procedures. It felt overwhelming and very sales-driven. After visiting our new vet last week, the difference was night and day. No pressure, no excessive treatment plans.. Just compassionate, straightforward care from people who genuinely seemed focused on helping my dogs rather than maximizing profit. I don't usually leave negative reviews, but I hope this feedback encourages more transparency and less pressure to upsell unnecessary vaccines, tests, and treatment options.

Giving 4 stars because their check-in process for boarding is incredibly lengthy, even taking up to an hour in the past despite my friend providing all relevant information. While we can all agree that being thorough is important, during one of these check-ins I had to correct an inaccurate zip code and also my contact information - although my friend had already confirmed with their team prior. While I haven't had my own rescue dog examined at NHAH, I can say from reviewing the paperwork that services are relatively expensive - but take that as you will given the location in Costa Mesa and the fact that it's a hospital vs. a clinic and open for longer hours/offer lab work on-site. There's a small parking lot that's kind of a sharp turn from street when you get off the freeway, so it may help to pull up the street view before coming to get a sense of the layout.

Mesa West Pet Hospital in Costa Mesa is the definition of real veterinary care done with heart,…read moreskill, and urgency. From the moment you walk into their clinic on Placentia Ave in Costa Mesa, you can feel that this team treats every animal like family not like a number on a chart. My 16-year-old Chow had suddenly started declining. She's a senior girl, and at that age every small change is scary. She wasn't eating, she was weak, and we honestly thought we were losing her. We brought her to Mesa West Pet Hospital and met Dr. Lethicia Lepera and that's when everything changed. Dr. Lepera didn't do the "quick look and guess" that we'd seen in other places. She went all in. She ran thorough bloodwork and imaging in-house, right there at the hospital (they have their own lab and radiology on site), and started piecing together what was really going on instead of just treating the symptoms. After a full workup, she discovered that our Chow wasn't "just old" she was actually dealing with serious kidney and liver issues that had been missed before. That deeper investigation is the reason our dog is still here. Dr. Lepera caught it in time, built a treatment plan around supporting those organs, adjusted her meds, and walked us through nutrition, comfort, and realistic long-term care. She literally gave our dog her life back and gave us more good time with her What really stood out to me: * The medical skill Dr. Lepera has been practicing for years, and you can feel that experience the moment she starts talking. She's calm, direct, and incredibly knowledgeable -- especially with complicated internal issues, not just simple checkups. * The diagnostics and follow-through They didn't guess. They tested. Bloodwork, imaging, monitoring, and then adjustments based on real data. That level of attention is rare, especially for senior dogs * The honesty and communication Nothing was sugarcoated, but nothing was hopeless either. Dr. Lepera explained every step, every medication, every number in language we could actually understand. We left feeling informed, not scared and confident that she took the best decision * The team The staff here is kind, patient, and fast. You can tell this is a clinic that actually cares they're not just trying to push you through the door. This kind of compassion is mentioned over and over by other clients, and now I get why. We were there per hours feeling embraced by them * Full support in one place Mesa West Pet Hospital also has a full in-house pharmacy, so we were able to leave with exactly what our Chow needed right away instead of driving around town or waiting on approval from some online service. When you're dealing with a sick senior pet, that matters. ) Today, our 16-year-old Chow is comfortable, eating again, and actually enjoying her days. At her age, "stable and happy" is a miracle, and that miracle came from Dr. Lepera and her team. To everyone at Mesa West Pet Hospital: thank you for giving our dog more time and giving us our girl back.

The cost is very reasonable & they have always informed us upfront about any procedures they recommend.

Pantera has had 2 surgeries due to random bouts of pica & both times, the staff & Dr. Lepera have been extremely understanding & courteous. The 1st time Pantera became ill, we had no idea what was going on & neither did the 3 other places we took him to before taking him to Mesa West. Looking at all the different bills, Mesa West was by far the most reasonable (the most expensive place being $60K) & they were able to perform the surgery right away while other places had a lead time of at least a week, which one of the places said Pantera wouldn't make it that long. We're very grateful for Dr. Lepera & staff for always making every visit pleasant!
