So I brought it up and instead of agree to disagree they said it's from vaccine, bleeding hair follicles don't bleed from vaccine, and then they said it from cone, which we didn't use. I was ready to let it go until they send me a letter not to come back!!! As a passionate dog owner I should be concerned how dogs hair got pulled out!!!! And even if you didn't notice it happened under your care you don't tell me I'm stupid and tell not to come back. Not ok! This happened 3 months ago and it still bothers me. I've consulted other vets and groomers and they all said not possible to rip hair out like that without dog yelping like crazy. Being under anesthesia is the only way it makes sense that it happened Again, I give them a benefit of a doubt that they didn't noticed when it happened, but don't send me your lame letters when you are clueless how poodle's hair works!!!!!!!!!!!! And yes, my poodle's hair is long and beautiful and kept clean and because I care!!!!!!!!!!!! The worst way to handle care is to shut someone who cares down!!!!

Nomination for Veterinarian of the Year: Dr. Sukeep Kaur, DVM…read more Rocklin Ranch Veterinary Hospital For more than fifteen years, Dr. Sukeep Kaur has been one of the quiet, steady forces holding up the animal‑welfare community in Placer County. Her impact is profound, yet she rarely speaks of it. She simply shows up--day after day, year after year--offering her skill, compassion, and time to the people and pets who need her most. Dr. Kaur is known throughout our region as a veterinarian who leads with her heart. She routinely provides free spay and neuter surgeries for low‑income families and for individuals who have no means to pay. She never advertises this generosity; she simply steps in when she sees a need. For many pet owners, her kindness is the difference between keeping a beloved companion or surrendering them. For countless cats and kittens, her willingness to help has prevented suffering and reduced the number of unwanted litters entering local shelters. Her partnership with Kitten Central--our nonprofit neonatal veterinary hospital--has been invaluable. For over fifteen years, Dr. Kaur has been the person we call when emergencies arise, when a fragile newborn kitten needs immediate intervention, or when we face a medical question that requires expert insight. She has never once turned us away. Her guidance has saved lives that would not have survived without her. One of the most meaningful examples of her community impact is her involvement in Senior Saturdays, a monthly outreach program she participates in with one of our board members. Together, they visit nursing homes and assisted‑living communities, bringing small, gentle kittens for residents to hold and interact with. These visits are more than a moment of joy--they are therapy. Residents who seldom speak begin talking. Those who rarely smile light up. Individuals with memory challenges become calm and engaged. Dr. Kaur handles each kitten with tenderness and each resident with dignity, creating a bridge of comfort between generations. Her presence transforms the room. Despite her extensive volunteer work, Dr. Kaur maintains a demanding professional schedule. She works four days a week at one Rocklin Ranch location and fills in at their other practice whenever a veterinarian is sick or on vacation. Most people would call that exhausting. She calls it relaxing. Her dedication to her profession is matched only by her love for the animals and families she serves. What makes Dr. Kaur truly exceptional is not just the number of hours she gives, but the spirit in which she gives them. She never seeks recognition. She never asks for credit. She simply believes that helping animals--and the people who love them--is her responsibility as a veterinarian and as a member of this community. I am certain that what I know of her contributions is only a fraction of the whole. Her humility means that much of her good work happens quietly, without fanfare. But the impact is unmistakable: healthier pets, supported families, comforted seniors, and a stronger, more compassionate community. For her unwavering service, her extraordinary generosity, and her deep commitment to both people and animals, Dr. Sukeep Kaur deserves to be recognized as Veterinarian of the Year. Her work has touched thousands of lives, and our community is immeasurably better because of her.

Her empathy, kindness, and calm demeanor made an incredibly difficult moment feel peaceful and gentle. She explained every step of the process so we understood what she was doing and what to expect during the in-home euthanasia. Because of her compassion, we were able to hold our fur baby throughout the entire process, which meant the world to us. Saying goodbye to a cherished pet is one of the hardest things a family can face. It was especially difficult for us because he has been with us since he was just three weeks old--when my husband brought him home, and we bottle-fed him as a tiny ball of baby fluff. After 18 years as part of our family, letting him go was heartbreaking. Dr. Sarah handled everything with such care and respect, giving our sweet boy a peaceful and loving goodbye in the comfort of his home. We highly recommend Dr. Sarah/Faithful Friend and we are deeply grateful for her compassion during such a painful time.

I moved to this veterinary clinic due to my preferred vet being overloaded and difficult to get…read moreappointments with. The reviews here seem to be glowingly positive and I wanted to support a local business. Sadly, I was greatly disappointed. My concerns and reason for visit were consistently not taken seriously. For example, when I brought my pet in with upper respiratory issues, I was told "it's not that bad." Well, if ignored, it is actually /is/ that bad. Repeatedly, I sensed a hesitancy to treat my pets' issues proactively, and found the bedside manner here to be sorely lacking. I brought in my pet with symptoms consistent with an upper respiratory infection. Instead of any antibiotics, I was prescribed steroids and an inhaler, which were consistently ineffective. Unfortunately, I allowed this to go on for far too long at this vet and should have listened to my instincts. Three months into this treatment (still without antibiotics), I was told that since my pet didn't respond to steroids, "it's probably cancer" and told to get in with a specialist asap (and that it would be many thousands of dollars). I'll admit I do not have a PhD, but this doesn't seem like very scientific diagnostic criteria to leap to cancer. I fully acknowledge that the realm of veterinary medicine is vast and we still don't know that much about the body in the grand scheme of things, but being consistently ignored and then leaping directly to cancer seems like a stretch. I sought a second opinion at my previous vet, who agreed that leaping to cancer without diagnostics was kind of cruel to my mental health. They promptly issued antibiotics. I also scheduled an appointment with internal medicine elsewhere out of fear from hearing the "cancer" word thrown around. Sure enough, there was a bacterial infection that should have been treated with antibiotics. Due to the delays and not prescribing an antibiotic, the bacterial infection was allowed to go on far too long, resulting in bony destruction. Despite the vet claiming I needed to urgently get my pet in with internal medicine, we still experienced lengthy delays getting copies of my pet's medical records--unfortunately, many internal medicine specialists will not schedule an appointment with you until they've received the records from the prior vet, which just led to further delays. The poor communication, poor attitude, and poor bedside manner further tanked my opinion of my experiences here. Dropping the "cancer" bomb on me with no diagnostics--rude and poorly handled, honestly. I also felt like there was a consistent attitude against me wanting to see the pricing before agreeing to treatment. It should be noted that I agreed to the treatments, however, we all know that in the veterinary and medical world, sometimes there's sticker shock when you see the price. I'd prefer transparency. Asking to see the pricing before committing to expensive treatment seemed to earn quite a few huffs and puffs from staff and the doctor. Overall, my biggest lesson learned here is to get a second opinion, particularly when the symptoms are downplayed for far too long and then the diagnosis suddenly leaps from "asthma" to "cancer." Trust your gut. This is just one example (definitely the most expensive) of my experiences here, but they were consistent enough for me to feel that this was a pattern.

It was easy enough to schedule an appointment though I was very hesitant to pay their $69 fee that…read morethey will charge you before even seeing anybody. When I arrived at the vet, I was greeted by a receptionist who seemed overwhelmed as she was dealing with an angry customer over the phone and a full waiting room. As I sit there waiting patiently, I noticed a few ticks crawling around the waiting area after which I picked my dog up off the ground. VERY unsanitary. When it finally came down to checking in, I was told that I "called in to cancel" my appointment which I clearly did not do as evidenced by my presence and my taking time off to make it to my dogs appointment. They were unwilling to fill my appointment in a timely manner and had given me an option to reschedule. This place is obviously overbooked, understaffed, and impersonal, all of which screams production line $$$$. Based on the sanitation, unprofessionalism, and inability to make up for their staff errors, I would not recommend this place. You are better off going to a place with more personal, courteous care.

Blue Oaks Vet Clinic fulfills precisely what we need need and want for our pups. Thus far, all of their vets, technicians, and staff have showed us they care so much for each and every animal that comes through their doors. Is owning a pet and ensuring proper care pricey? Certainly, always is. Blue Oaks Vet is no different when it comes to pricing. However! If you have a pup under 1 year old and due for first time shots for vaccinations, deworming, etc. I would strongly recommend to take advantage of their "Puppy Wellness Package!" Covers nearly all of the essentials for your loveable new family member! Saved us a lot and I'm all for it. Scheduling, prefilled forms, and their entite system is wonderfully organized and I absolutely appreciate that! They'll send a good amount of reminders but I personally like it (not annoyed) since it helps me remember amidst all of the hustle and bustle in life. I can sense their compassion, friendliness, and love for their field. Highly recommended, especially for all folks near and within Blue Oaks area! Very nice to have a trustworthy, efficient, and organized vet clinic so close to home!

This vet poisoned our cat with Methimazole (a med for hyperthyroidism). She did not advise us of…read morepossible side effects or suggest a low iodine diet as an alternative. Worse, she did not recognize the symptoms of a bad reaction to methimazole and for nine months kept telling us that "methimazole won't do this, keep giving it to him." After nine months of multiple increasingly severe side effects we saw an animal dermatologist who diagnosed PF (pemphighs foliacious) an auto immune disorder. At this time we did our own research and found that methimazole can cause auto immune disorder in some cats and needs to be stopped immediately when signs occur. By the time we learned this, his immune system was attacking one organ after another treating each as a foreign invader. Massive lessions, weakness, inflamatory bowel disease, ulcers, and lymphoma came over the following months. Finally his immune system attacked his kidneys and he died of kidney failure three months later. Through all of this, many biopsies and ultrasounds and Xrays and consultations with specialists and a dozen medications (including gabapentin to limit the discomfort) could not save him. Disturbingly, this cat was never hyperthyroid. When we determined the methimazole was a problem and switched to a low iodine diet, he went severe hypothyroid. While his thyroid numbers were originally above the median, they were not high enough to be a problem and he should never have been given medication for hyperthyroidism. This cat was special. He was abused by his first owner (his first three years) but overcame his fear of people after a few months with us. He new 25 words and loved to hike with us in the mountains and deserts of the eleven western states. He never needed a leash and obeyed voice commands. He was on the arm of my chair tapping me on the chest if it was time for his afternoon walk. Or touching my mouth if it was time for food.
