Dr. Singh is a man true to himself and his devotion to help his fellow humans through his fairness and kindness to our pets. I truly doubt you can find a more selfless Vet; we have tried so many of them in various cities. read more

I've taken my animals to this veterinarian many times I had an emergency where my dog was bleeding and would not coagulate. He said he didn't think my dog would make it gave fluids and said go to another vet hospital so I left. I received treatment elsewhere for my dog cost under $400.00 to help my boy Waylon. I had another emergency with my cat about 40osh days later so back to Somis vet to be checked into a room. When the vet looked at me and told me that he would not treat my animal because I didn't pay for the previous vet care of Waylon . This was totally false. He told me it was free and told me go to another vet to save him . I sat there in shock and told him please help my cat chance that is actively having seizures and wast not standing . He said it's not going to live and that he would not help. I went to another veterinarian who not only saved my cat as he had an inner ear infection, but only charge me $283. If you ask me, nobody should go to Somis vet the lack of compassion and to let an animal suffer longer is more than enough for me . Update I see you're quick to write a rebuttal Brittany, but in fact I never once gave me a bill at the time of service your veterinarian instructed me to go somewhere else . Nobody called and said there was an outstanding balance nor was anything mailed to me. Usually once service is rendered payment is expected again I was never given a bill from this establishment. read more

I am very confused as to what is happening with this hospital. I've been taking my dog here for years. I call right now and he tells me to call somewhere else and then says it's gonna be three $400 and then hangs up on me. I'm trying to call back to get a schedule. My dog is running very low on medication so this is putting my dog at risk. This is very unprofessional. I always heard bad things about this business but now I'm starting to believe it. Now they are not answering the phone read more

Disappointing and Unprofessional Experience I brought my 10-year-old Chihuahua to this clinic on two separate occasions, and unfortunately, both experiences left me deeply disappointed. During our first visit, I brought her in for an anal gland issue. The veterinarian recommended additional bloodwork and arthritis medication. I explained that she had already undergone testing and treatment in Pennsylvania just a few months earlier and had experienced a serious negative reaction to the medication. Despite my explanation, as I was checking out, he commented in front of other clients, "Whenever you can afford it, you can have the rest done." I found this remark inappropriate and disrespectful. My decision had nothing to do with money. It was about protecting my dog's health. I decided to give the clinic a second chance when my Chihuahua developed severe itching, skin irritation, and areas where she had scratched herself nearly to the point of bleeding. Once again, instead of focusing on the immediate reason for our visit, the veterinarian insisted on discussing arthritis treatment. I explained her previous adverse reaction again, but he responded with comments such as, "Okay, no money," completely dismissing my concerns. My dog was then taken to another area, and I was charged $113. Shortly afterward, I was told we were done and directed toward the exit. No explanation of what had been administered, no aftercare instructions, and no guidance on how to manage her ongoing discomfort. When I called the clinic afterward, I was told that saline solution had been used. Meanwhile, my Chihuahua was still suffering from severe itching. My complaint is not about the $113. It is about being repeatedly dismissed, having my medical concerns mistaken for financial limitations, and leaving without a clear understanding of the care my dog received. I respect veterinary professionals and their medical recommendations, but I also expect them to listen when an owner reports a previous adverse reaction to medication. Veterinary care should be about compassion, communication, and the animal's well-being, not making assumptions about a client's ability to pay. Unfortunately, my experience at this clinic fell far short of those expectations. read more

Dr. Singh should retire and hang his damn hat already. This is the worst experience at a vet I have ever had. Since my husband and I got married we've had four dogs, two rabbits, a pig, four tortoises.... Etc. All that to say I have had my fair share of vet emergencies, mishaps. If I listened to Dr. Singh my pet would be dead. He has zero empathy or compassion and genuinely does not want to put effort into his job. He took one look at our pet, said "it's dying. I can put it down for you." Never touched him. Just one look and a cruel "I'll put him down". Went to another vet.... He was dehydrated from the recent heat wave. He got fluids and a day of rest and is completely fine.... Can you imagine trusting this guy? Who will just euthanize your beloved pets because it's convenient? Please stay away from this place until either Dr. Singh retires or "Brittney" sells the business to someone with a few extra brain cells. read more

If you care, love and want your pet to live. Don't take them here!!! People please do your research before taking your pet here. Several people I know have lost their pets while under the care of this veterinarian. Numerous posts on the Nextdoor app and Facebook groups share similar experiences. For example, some dropped off their small dogs for routine teeth cleanings, only to later discover that their beloved pets died during anesthesia. read more

Best hidden secret in Somis. You can feel comfortable, confident, and not price gauged at their clinic. Parking can be challenging given the location but there is street parking. We appreciate the flexibility on various weekends and found them very cost conscious and very transparent about options. read more

I cannot say enough positive things about Dr Singh and his team. Our Gracie (cat) came to us with a history of trauma and we were worried about the upheaval of vet visits. No need. Although she doesn't enjoy the car ride to get there, once we reach the office she curls up in her crate and relaxes ... and stays calm during her exam. Two visits in and this is definitely a keeper. As a lifelong pet parent, I've met a lot of vets, this is the best! The team is courteous, helpful, and my cat loves them. Her parents do too!! read more

Dr. Richard Giacopuzzi drove all the way out to Ojai (the majority of his clients come to his hospital) as Dr. Liskey was off, to examine my very senior Belgian Warmblood mare, age 32, on a Saturday (!!!). She was severely lame. He examined her thoroughly, found the cause in conjunction with my Veterinarian Charles Liskey, and my horse is recovering. I am super grateful to both of these excellent, caring Veterinarians. read more

Dr. Singh is the best Veterinarian!! My family is so blessed to have found him. He is kind and loving, he has a calm peaceful energy about him and my dogs feel that calmness and you can tell he genuinely cares. Not just about your pet, but about you. When I first met him I had to bring in my 14yr old dachshund who was very sick at the time. Dr. Singh got down on the floor and sat and loved on my dog until my dog went over on his own and sat in his lap. I had never seen anything like it! Seeing the amount of love he was giving my sweet Max brought tears to my eyes. I knew Max trusted him because Max doesn't go to any stranger. I had gotten taken advantage of by another Veteran and Dr. Singh was very honest and advised me on what I truly needed to do to help my dog. He saved me money but most importantly he saved my dogs life. Now my little puppy goes to him as well. Today Ryder was neutered and I had taken my dogs previously to the spay and neuter clinic. But Somis Vet charges the same amount and the difference is night and day ! The staff and Dr. Singh are truly the sweetest people, and you can trust them, because they actually really do care. They aren't there take advantage of you, they are there to help you and you can feel the difference. A big thank you and hug to Dr. Singh and his staff!! Xoxo read more

Best Vet around, thoughtful conscientious & knowledgeable when it comes to my pup Harlee's digestive, coat, anxiety and her allergy needs. Harlee was adopted from the Camarillo Pet Shelter at the age of 2 and she had a lot of care that was needed.

I would not recommend coming here... this place is not what it used to be. You'd think you would save money but you pay just as much as you would elsewhere, for much worse service. It is overpriced and rushed. You get 60 seconds in the lobby to explain the reason for your visit and are very limited with the questions or concerns you can express. While the vet techs are always nice, because of the dubious and inconsistent pricing, I am weary to trust the quality of services you do not vet to observe. In the future, my resolve is to go somewhere more reputable. read more

We adopted our sweet puppy from Shelter Hope in Thousand Oaks, and they have an arrangement with this Vet. Their shots and spay will be included in the fee we paid at Shelter Hope. From the moment we stepped inside this location I knew that this wasn't a place I would've picked on my own. It's dusty and kind of generally just unkept. We have visited this vet 4 times. 1 time for her Wellness twice for her shots and one time for her spay which included more shots. We were always greeted promptly and put in a room where we always waited 20 minutes for the doctor except for the time for her spay. While Dr Singh did come in and sit on the floor with Poppy he always asked questions each time that he had asked the two weeks before. He was also random in some of the things he said. Each time in the room he stayed less then 3 minutes with us not explaining or getting to know us or our pup. Yesterday she was spayed. We arrived at the vet at 830am we were ushered into a room and then after a while Susan came in and took our pup and gave us a paper to sign and said sign it and leave it at the desk. She walks off with my pup. The consent form says that someone explained what was going to happen and how the anesthesia was going work BUT let's be clear no one explained anything to me. We pick our pup up at 330 and she's handed to me with it being clear they she had peed and had sat in it, she was wet. I told this to the receptionist and she said yes she must have gone. There was no cone on my pup when I asked and I was told the doctor doesn't recommend them. That's fine BUT how about you tell me that before I get there so then that way I can get a cone or bring her onesie so she doesn't lick her stitches. I asked about the stitches the girl tells me they need to be removed in about 10 days and I can come back there or go to any vet. I will be finding another vet happily. Every time we left this vet I was very disappointed in the general experience, and I can't express enough how happy I am that we can find her a vet that will do more of a thorough job in caring for Poppy. We love our puppy and we want her to have the best care, that kind of care doesn't seem like it can come from Somis Veterinary Hospital. read more

Trusting our pets care to Dr.Singh has been the best choice for all of our fur babies. We recently had to make the decision of euthanizing a beloved Marcie. It was the most heartbreaking decision but Dr.Singh and his staff were so kind and compassionate. The kindness didn't end the day of ,it continues to this day by ensuring that our family is doing well thru this difficult time. We feel certain that we made the right decision for our precious Marcie. We will only intrust all of our pets with Dr.Singh and his staff. read more

I have stepped away from Yelp reviews for a bit. But my experience here has been so atrocious, I must warn everyone to AVOID AT ALL COSTS. This entire clinic from the receptionist to the nurses and especially the vet is unprofessional and rude. I drove over 100 miles (roundtrip) to see this vet since the rescue group has a partnership with this place and wow, was it run down and filthy. I went inside to pick up my dog and was "greeted" by disgusted stares. Singh told me to wait outside due to covid yet he was NOT WEARING A MASK. How is this acceptable?? The last i checked, mask wearing is still mandatory, especially a MEDICAL clinic. I've waited over an hour outside in the sun, in addition to my 1+hour drive, so i asked to use the restroom and the receptionist rolled her eyes at me and ignored me. The nurse gave some bullshit excuse of the restroom being used for surgery?? Excuse me, what? When i finally got my dog back, Singh just handed me a bag of stuff, my dog, and started to walk away. I had to chase after him to ask him what's wrong, what kind of care she needs, etc. There's a reason why shelters and rescues partner with this clinic: Cheap. And it shows. For the love of all animals. Pay the extra $ and go to a reputable vet. Over and out. read more

We've had nothing but great experiences with Dr. Singh and his staff. He's caring and has always addressed the issues that our dog presented with. The staff is amazing and the Dr. always checks with us to make sure that we can afford the treatments and course of medicine that he's advising. He's as fair as possible given that he's running a business and at the end of the day, the goal is to make enough to cover your costs and keep the place up and running. It's not decorated like a Beverly Hills dog spa and it's clear that they are running things within a budget, but that's never affected our experience nor our beloved dog's comfort (as far as we can tell). We will continue to trust Dr. Singh and Somis Vet Hospital staff with the care of our dog. read more

We went to Dr. Singh after not being able to get an appointment at our then current vet. He was excellent with our dog and continues to give excellent care to our dog and cats. The entire staff is most friendly and accommodating. Nothing fancy but just good, solid care for our pets. read more

Dr. Singh is a doctor of bad intent. He prescribed my dog medication and we went to him for help with her allergies since she was a puppy. He knows our situation well and he would not give my dog the treatment she needed. Went back to this vet for years for help and he intended "she had a bad heart" without running any tests, and by just looking at her. I finally decided to take my dog to the vet in Simi Valley, and she was immediately better and finally got the treatment she needed. Do not trust him, he wants ur money, not ur dog to be healthy. read more

Where do I start? We brought a dog we had fostered in for an examination, and for a clearer idea of what a large lesion on the dog's back might be. This dog was a newly nursing Mom. The dog was taken in without us being present, and brought back about 5 minutes later, with us being told that the lesion on her back was a "burn". A week or two later, lesions started sprouting on all of the other pups. Concerned, we contacted the rescue organization, Wagmor, who again organized an appointment with this same vet. Again the dogs were all taken in without us being in the room with the vet, for a grand total of 5 minutes maybe. They were brought back out to us, and we were told the puppies had puppy strangles. What is puppy strangles we thought...couldn't be too serious as he prescribed nothing. We then looked it up, and we were shocked to learn that this was a life threatening condition that required immediate intervention. However, it was also clear to us that the puppies were not sharing any of the symptoms of this condition. It also looked nothing like it. For a week we asked for a second opinion as we weren't sold on Dr Singh's diagnosis. We took the pups into another vet, and it was immediately clear to this other vet that they had ringworm. And a severe case at that. The test proved positive two days later. We are left with a severe case of ringworm, which could have been dealt with 5 weeks ago, if Dr Singh did his job and tested the lesion on the mother with a skin scrape. The puppies are suffering needlessly, and our house has become contaminated with a horrendously contagious disease, putting our other dog at risk, as well as ourselves and our daughter. If you do choose to take your pet here, be incredibly wary. In my opinion he shouldn't practicing. read more

After nearly 17 years I had to say goodbye to the most sweet pure loving creation to ever grace this earth. It was truly the most difficult decision I have had to make in my 38 years of existence. My sweet angel lived such a beautiful life, lighting up the hearts and bringing joy to everyone and anything she came in contact with. She was a treasure for sure. A great rolemodel to her sister's and brother, and her torch burns on through them. Eventually, life passes through us all and one day its time for everyone and everything to close their eyes one last time. You wait in heaven until i see you again... Dr Singh and his staff were very compassionate with the process of sending my angel for her wings. I am thankful for them and all that they did throughout her life and am thankful for the treatment the old Dr Clarke gave her all those many years ago. Thank you. read more

I don't like putting someone's business down because I know everyone works hard and my one experience could just be a fluke...but I feel like I need to share this because it was a little unsettling. I've tried a few times to write this with details, but it's just too long. Long story short, Dr. Singh tried to tell me my dog's teeth cleaning was going to cost $300, when their sign out front states that $200 is the maximum cost for teeth cleaning with anesthesia and extractions. He haggled with me and said he'd do it for $200, but he would be "cutting corners". Forget the price at this point...he was going to cut corners during a medical procedure where he had my dog under anesthesia? To stick to the price they had posted? No thank you. I told him I didn't trust him after that and he tried to back pedal and haggle again. I picked up my dog and left. I felt like I was buying a used car, not talking to a licensed veterinarian. He said a lot more that was weird and unsettling, but the point I'm trying to make is...maybe be careful here guys! Also, please be aware that the raving review about a cat dental cleaning posted shortly after mine is written by "amritpala s." Is the vet himself. His name is Amritpal Singh. read more

Definitely do not recommend this place. They have no understanding how to work with customer service, they were rude, and never answer their phone calls. Dr. Singh doesn't see you. He seemly avoided seeing me and just atmosphere was not great. Just one issue after another and they have the nerve to complain that I called? Okay? I have the right to know about my dog. Im done. Went to another vet, that knows how to answer calls, make appointments, discuss with you in person or phone about dog's updates and needs. I see positive reviews but they are outdated. read more

I took our 2yr old bordie collie here. Had a few visits and got his vaccines. He got neutered and he died 2 days later. He was a healthy dog according to the dr. What was weird is that the dr said a month before that he was afraid that our dog would need a lot of anesthesia because he was a very active dog and afraid it would be too much for him. Well I guess he gave him to much because my healthy 2yr old dog is dead. read more

PLEASE BEWARE COMING HERE IF YOUR PETS LIFE IS ON THE LINE. After talking to numerous people, seems like he doesn't have that great of a rep as much as yelp makes him out to be. So I will not be going back. Dr Singh offered numerous times to take $$ off the bill, we still got charged full price which is fine but odd. We left thinking we paid the full amount only to find out we had a remaining balance so it was sketchy from the beginning in my opinion. Dr Singh basically said my dog should get put down because there was no hope and if he got operated on he may die because of the loss of blood of the still unknown thing that happened to my dog, So we went to another vet who was more positive about his situation and we fought for his life and he made it through with out breaking the bank. Moral of the story is My dog is healthy and back to normal like as if nothing happened. Can't believe we almost put him down because of doctor Singh's opinion. read more

There are closer Vets to my home. (One literally steps away from my home, within walking distance) But to get a Vet who truly cares about my dog, doesn't gouge & has fair pricing... I'm happy to make the drive. There's a farm stand across the street that I enjoy going to, so it gives me another reason to make the drive. Dr Singh is the most caring Vet I have ever met. I was given his info from a local groomer who has been in the area for many years & it's one of the best referrals I have gotten in awhile. Now, I'm passing this referral onto whoever reads this. Once you experience not getting ripped off by a Vet, you will love & appreciate it. He's busy & sometimes takes a week to get an appt. When my Son had an emergency with his dog & she unfortunately had to be put down. Dr Singh & his staff were loving & caring. They got her in quickly to be seen too. My Son opted to have the ashes & they arrived in a beautiful cedar chest with the dogs name on a metal plate. If you REALLY love your fur babies, this is the perfect Vet for you. He will fight with you to help keep your elder pet alive. read more

Dr. Singh and his staff are a great veterinary care team. I recently adopted a dog, Bixby, from Wagmor, and they referred me to Dr. Singh. Dr. Singh has great bedside manner with my dog, he always comes into the room and sits on the ground to wait for Bixby to come to him. Dr. Singh is very patient with my partner and I as we typically ask lots of questions. He explains his approach thoroughly and clearly. They're team is very responsive to calls/emails and work to get you in ASAP. Another clinic I called couldn't see my dog with allergies for 2 weeks but Dr. Singh got him in the next day. read more

Thank you so much Dr. Singh for taking care of my dogs teeth. I have A 10-year-old Chihuahua who had horrible dental disease and was in desperate need of extractions following swelling in his face due to an abscess in his gums.I have always been scared to have buddy under anesthesia because of a horrible experience we have had at a veterinarian hospital before when he got his teeth cleaned. But he was in good hands and came out of his anesthesia like a champ tail wagging and all. I love my dog to the moon and back and was very scared for him to be put under given his age. However Dr. Singh knows what he is doing and took great care of my dog. I drove down from Santa Barbara because Dr. Singh was recommended to me to help with my dogs dental needs. I am so glad we were recommended to Dr. Singh I will definitely be coming back. read more

I called on a Saturday after they were closed because I was worried about my pet(best friend) and started to leave a message but stopped and hung up the phone. Sunday evening I received a call from one of the receptionist. She said I sounded distraught so she went through her caller ID and called me back to check on my dog. I was shocked that someone actually cared enough to call back. She scheduled Tink (my pet) in the next morning. When I arrived they put us in a room right away, and within 10 minutes the Dr. came in and examined Tink. He explained what was going on with her and what is to come. Tink is 15 yrs old so I had her blood tested, it came back that she is healthy. After all that I was expecting a huge bill, and again I was shocked at the final bill. Very affordable and personal care was amazing. I will be returning with all my animals and definitely passing on my story to anyone who has a pet (best friend) as well. read more
