I cannot say enough wonderful things about Stitches Veterinary Surgery. We came in during a very stressful time after our dog, Henry Ford, suffered a fractured humerus, and from the moment we walked through the door, we felt supported and genuinely cared for. Dr. Campbell is truly exceptional. He is very knowledgeable and incredibly compassionate. He took the time to explain Henry's injury and treatment plan in a way we could understand and answered every question I had. Knowing our dog was in his care brought us peace of mind. Starr, Dr. Campbell's assistant, was just as impressive. She was gentle, attentive, and reassuring throughout the process, ensuring Henry remained comfortable and well cared for at every step. Liz at the front desk deserves a special mention as well. She was welcoming, organized, and incredibly helpful, making everything run smoothly and stress-free. I also appreciated how transparent they were about pricing. The costs were very reasonable, and they took the time to go over every detail of the pricing plan so there were no surprises or hidden fees. Thanks to this amazing team, Henry Ford received exceptional care, and we will always be grateful. If you're looking for a veterinary surgical team that combines skill, compassion, transparency, and genuine care, I cannot recommend them enough. read more

Really can't say enough about the care I received at Stitches Veterinary Surgery with Dr. Campbell and the rest of his team. I had just moved to Long Beach, within two weeks of my ragdoll cat Pouncey's diagnosis of a large kidney tumor that needed to be removed. Truly fortunate that Stitches opened up just earlier this year and is right down the street from me, a beautiful modern surgical clinic and OR suite in one. From the moment Liz took my intake information down to the initial surgery consult, I knew I was in good hands. Dr. Campbell understood my anxiety regarding the urgency of the situation and basically held my hand through the entire process, with frequent phone calls and detailed visit notes. He scheduled Pouncey for surgery the very next week. Prices were fair including itemized invoices with which I had no issues getting reimbursed by my insurance. The nephrectomy surgery itself couldn't have gone any better - Dr. Campbell called me immediately afterwards to give me an update. Pouncey healed up quickly without any complications, and his surgical scar improved to the point you can't even see the incision. The best news about all of this was that the tumor pathology turned out to be benign. Thank you to all of the team at Stitches for making Pouncey and my experience so amazing and low stress, and for allowing him to live many more healthy years to come. read more

I would drive from anywhere in California to bring my pets to see Dr. Campbell and the amazing staff at Stitches. They truly performed the impossible for my 15 year old chihuahua at a fraction of the cost that a local Los Angeles vet would have cost us. We were devastated to learn that our Quentin doggie had a spleen tumor that was probably bleeding intermittently.... We were told by his vet to either have a splenectomy or put him down to avoid a fatal internal bleed. Dr. Campbell removed his spleen and overgrown parathyroid tissue. Everything from the pictures of the surgery to the incision sites was a work of art- he truly performed human quality medical procedures on our dear doggo. Liz and Missy took care of me all day while I was an absolute WRECK. Together with Dr. Campbell, they have the highest standards for thorough and timely communication. You can tell that each staff member cares about every patient like it is their own pet. Not only did he save Quentin's life, but the transformation in his quality of life has been truly unbelievable. He has reverse aged by 5-8 years!!! He walks with the strength and endurance that he did when he was around 8. Before the surgery he couldn't stand or walk for more than about two minutes. Yesterday, he alternated between walking and standing to sniff for over 25 minutes straight without sitting down once!!! In the house, he used to just lay in his bed with his head down. Now he is curious, active, awake, holding his head hp high, looking around, and interacting with us. To all of the Stitches staff members, you have truly given me the best gift of my lifetime. I think about you every day as I treasure every walk, snuggle, nap, and treat with Quentin. read more

We brought our 13 1/2 year old Shar Pei in for a consultation, and the service was remarkable. Professional, caring, knowledgable, thorough, and prompt. Within a few hours of a CT Scan we had a 9 page report showing the results, the state of all his organs, the prognosis, and the various options. We decided our beloved pet was too old for a traumatic surgery and further care, so we chose the palliative route. The entire staff was so supportive. I would recommend tis clinic to anyone. read more

Dr. Campbell was truly amazing with Lexa he spoke to her during his exam and made her feel at ease. The wonderful ladies at the front desk were so friendly and happy. You can immediately tell everyone working here is happy to work together as a team. The facility is so nice and clean. My first initial call to Stitches was so helpful and really helped me make my decision to bring my dog here. I drove about 20 miles out of my way and after meeting with the Dr. Campbell and his team I made the right decision. I am very happy with the surgery and treatment. If you have to see a surgeon this place needs to be on the top of your list to visit. Thank you again to Dr. Campbell and his amazing team!! read more

From the start to finish really happy with the staff. Dr. Cambell and staff were amazing in making me feel comfortable and explaining my frenchies procedure, they also made my baby feel calm and they were so gentle and caring for him. I never felt rush or like they were trying to get me in and out. After Bennys procedure Dr. Cambell was avaible after hours which was great, he walked me through counting his breathing and explaining and answering questions I had since I was so nervous when we brought him home. The staff was great when I would ask anything after post op, care and instructions were detailed and my baby is breathing so much better, his quality of life has improved and I'm very happy. Thank you read more

Amazing experience here at stitches! My dog, a two year old cane corse was recently diagnosed with bilateral elbow dysplasia. As any concerned dog mom I called so many clinics looking for pricing and orthopedic specialist, even drove my dog to Mexico and had a terrible experience at a well know clinic Vet Playas. When back I came across stitches and gave them a call the receptionist was extremely friendly and immediately gave me rough estimates on pricing for surgery. I made an appt for the following day 8 am for a CT scan. Dr. Courtney and his team are incredible. My Corso is not so friendly, they did everything to make him feel comfortable. They took him in did his CT Scan and by the following day had a diagnosis and plan for treatment. We went ahead did the surgery and we have proceeded with therapy shock wave and PRP therapy to ensure he lives his best pain free life. I am incredible grateful for this whole team from the nurses who greet Jack from the moment we walk in to the friendly receptionist. Dr. Courtney is very knowledgeable and truly has a passion for what he does. Me and my fiancé are both grateful for the care and patience shown to our big bog who is recovering amazingly no longer in pain or limping. Thank you all at Stitches! read more

I rarely leave reviews but this is the exception, I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Courtney Campbell and his team. From the very first phone call to the whole process everyone was super supportive and gave detailed information to lessen the stress and worry. I rescued my cat freya in Mexico and she suffered a fall which caused her to have a diaphragmatic hernia. Causing all her organs to push forward and crush her lungs, after countless vet visits one of where they told us her odds of survival were close to none ! Dr. Campbell and his team truly gave me hope. The way he explains & guides you through the whole process I felt very supported ! This place is the place to take your pet if you want to be treated with empathy and compassion. You can tell every single one of them enjoy what they do and they were meant to pursue the career they're in because of how much they truly care about you and your pet. Now freya is able to breathe and live a wonderful healthy life thanks to them, I'll forever be grateful read more

I am very grateful to Dr. Campbell and his wonderful team for taking such wonderful care of my dog Birdie. From the moment you walk in, you and your furbaby feel welcomed. At my first appointment we discussed what needed to be done. I was given a quote and scheduled for the following week. On the day of the surgery (which was today), check-in was a breeze! Everything was discussed thoroughly and all of my questions were answered. There were no surprises with my quote. Pricing could not be beat! It was far better than I anticipated. I was very impressed, in general. The doctor called me after the procedure to discuss and also came out to answer some additional questions when I picked her up. He's knowledgeable, honest and has great "bedside manner". I was given all of her meds, instructions and left very confident in my decision to bring her to Stitches! I highly recommend for your pet's surgical needs. read more

Dr. Campbell and the entire staff at Stitches are absolutely incredible. I took my dog there for a suspected mucocele, primarily for a second opinion after getting an odd feeling with the previous specialist I had seen. He did a very thorough examination, suggested some testing to verify what was going on and gave great reasons and options. Turns out she doesn't actually have a mucocele and didn't need surgery. Dr. Campbell then provided recommendations for treatment and was still kind and answered questions. I can't thank him enough for digging deeper and helping find out what was going on. While I hope I never need a surgeon for my dogs again, I know exactly where I will go if I need one. read more

I already knew Dr Campbell and already knew he was an amazing Vet and person! Two of my dogs had some issues that were hard to pinpoint what they were from our primary vet so we made the trip from San Luis Obispo to see Dr Campbell! He is as good as he was with my previous dog! He is very thorough with both my dogs. He gave me all the options and answered all my questions. He is truly cares about his patients and their owners! read more

My dogs surgery went perfect. Dr. Campbell fabulous, staff wonderful. Facility top notch. Couldn't recommend more highly if this service is needed for your pet. read more

These folks certainly have taken notes from the used car swindler's playbook. They provide you with a price range for a particular procedure and never bother to follow up with that final coat. I had to call and request that final bill/ invoice which was for nothing less than the highest number of the initial price range. Just letting other pet parents know and to be aware of their tactics read more
