Dr. Polkowski at Comfortable Pets is The Best…read more She visited my senior puppy dog Boom Boom at my house & was so sweet to him. She spent over two hours with us. She examined him & performed various treatments (acupuncture, massage, Assisi loop, etc), but mostly she spent time educating me on how I could care for him better & understand what might be causing him discomfort. I've worked at an animal hospital for over 20 years & am super fortunate to have access to great veterinary care. My dog has a primary veterinarian & I work at an emergency vet facility but Dr. Polkowski was able to offer treatments & knowledge that I wasn't even aware of. She showed me things that I could do at home regularly to help Boom Boom feel better. I adopted Boom Boom from the animal shelter. He came with arthritis & soreness. Fortunately between Dr. Polkowski and Boom Boom's general doctor (at VCA McClave in Reseda), I feel I am better equipped to improve his quality of life.

Best, most caring vet ever. I started fostering and then adopting a husky/pointer mix who my…read moreboyfriend and I named Snoop. She's about a year old and was a mess at first. The foster group (HIT Living Foundation - wonderful people) took her from a high-kill shelter after she was found wandering the streets covered in fleas and ticks and with a lame left leg/paw. She had a brachial plexus avulsion (tearing of the nerves) and wasn't moving the paw, leg or shoulder at all. Any vet will tell you that this is a very hard injury to treat and almost always results in amputation of that leg. Also, in general, Snoop was just not in good physical shape. I found Lori through a recommendation and asked her to come evaluate Snoop after I had been fostering her for about two weeks. I was nervous at first as Snoop is very people scared and only lets my boyfriend and I touch her. Lori, with her wonderful assistant/shaman, Hector (I am not a particularly mystical person but Hector has some super calming influence over animals - even my cat came right up to him and into his lap so I will call him shaman!) came to my home (all covid protocols in) and coaxed Snoop out of her shell and started treating her. Snoop has been getting acupuncture, laser, chiropractic adjustments and B12 shots all from Lori. Snoop looks forward to the visits and is always excited when they come. Also, Lori has trained me quite a bit and I do simple physical therapy exercises with Snoop throughout the week and give Snoop supplements. Honestly all easy stuff that takes about 20 minutes a day. Lori checks in in us regularly and we've now been working with her for about 6 weeks. And the results...Snoop is a different dog. She just started using her shoulder again and regaining some of the feeling in her leg although she still can't walk on it. But she is now full of energy and running around and navigating on three legs quite nicely. She's healthy and filled out and a puppy again. She also can pick up her leg more so she's not dragging the paw around all the time and I don't have to wrap in the house or backyard (only for walks or when we leave). Even if she doesn't regain full use of that leg/paw again, it's been totally worth it. Snoop won't need it amputated and the use of her shoulder is so great. She's also just so healthy and happy now. However, our fingers and crossed and we are still working on getting that paw working. Thanks Lori!

Note: This review is for DENTAL services only…read more My vet doesn't perform dental services, so we brought our kitty in to Healing Touch for a teeth cleaning. We chose them due to proximity, reviews, and the no anesthesia approach. We were happy with the service, and will definitely use them again in the future. The only reason one star was docked off the review is the lack of evening or weekend availability for dental service. (My husband had to work around his work schedule to take our kitty in.)

Our nearly 15-year-old Maltese, Lily, had become very difficult to manage. After a frustrating…read moreexperience with a previous vet, we were exhausted and running out of options. Lily was anxious, nippy, unkempt (the groomer didn't want anything to do with her), and dealing with infections from constant chewing. From the first visit, everything changed. Lily went calmly into their arms and nearly fell asleep on the exam table. Dr. Rosen is incredibly knowledgeable and gave us a clear, effective plan to address Lily's anxiety, hot spots, incontinence, and overall comfort. The office is clean, responsive, and easy to work with. They reply quickly, send prescription links, and even help with price comparisons. Most importantly, they gave us hope. As Lily improved, so did our entire household. Highly recommend. Photos: before and after.

To get you in, they will promise fast response times when you need vet service which is not true. We paid $700+ for an exam for 2 dogs, and was promised if we need anything we are a few miles away from HQ and they can stop by or send a tech if we have a time sensitive concern. This is a lie, it has been 2 years since my exam and I contact them a number of times to which they were never available. I request my exam fee back since the exam is so they can come see you if you need them quickly... They never had availability or responded in a timely manner. Based on these reviews, they do not fix their mistakes, they gaslight you and then threaten legal on you. I am going to the news and know there are others out there bases on their reviews.

I am extremely grateful for the care my dog Sensi received. She was diagnosed with a very severe…read moreclosed pyometra and was already extremely weak and sick. Her potassium was dangerously high, which made anesthesia and surgery even riskier, and the staff made sure I understood the seriousness of her condition and the risks involved. They still did everything they could to help her and were able to successfully get her through surgery. I was told her pyometra was one of the worst cases they had seen, so knowing how sick she actually was makes me even more thankful that they were willing to take her case and give her a chance. This was an incredibly stressful and scary situation for our family, especially while trying to find care that we could afford. I truly appreciate everyone who helped Sensi and treated her with compassion. Seeing her make it through surgery and come home to us means more than I can explain. Thank you for helping save our girl.

It was not a good prognosis, but she answered all our questions and kept us calm and allowed our kitty to get the care and comfort she needed for final days.

But do read the other reviews, she has insight that can make the difference, and if the worst ever comes to a future furbaby, I wouldn't hesitate to get her opinion and care.

Our pup recently got an ear infection and flea bites from the groomer - so we had to take our girl in for some care. The vet examined her and provided some meds (ear ointment, skin treatment, flea treatment). Their prices are super reasonable - I think this visit was less than $100 out the door. And no wait at all when we went first thing in the morning! This is mostly a vaccine clinic but they do general wellness stuff. They don't have the ability to do blood tests or imaging (they work out of a RV) - so if the issue is major we still take our babies to the regular vet. But it's totally fine for small issues. Check their website which lists where they will be and what time. Fyi they're off on Mondays.
