I brought my Jack Russell in this morning with a fish hook in his lower lip. Christine took him in and gave me regular updates on his progress. He was happy and ready to go home in the afternoon. The Veternarian is also knowledgeable about everything I've ever brought in to have him diagnose. My review is 5/5, we'll except for the gross figurine of a rattlesnake in the office, with that said, perfect vets office.

Sounds reasonable we drive over an hour and half, the vet assistant came out to collect the pups didn't seem to understand not all dogs are docked the same.. we have jack Russel's, my husband asked to speak with the vet (younger guy) he was nice and talked to us.. they were quick but when it came time to pay they tried to charge up to 200 more than we were told. My husband said to the woman at the front that wasn't what he was told, she then said "are we gunna do this?" Went back came back and only charged 186.00 where in the world did the extra 200 come from she gave a reason but the math still didn't math.. the woman in front needs a reality check. Vet guy was nice but we will not return.

Very upsetting experience for my wife today. Tried to have an ancient cat, euthanized. The poor…read morecat is suffering with biting seizures/dementia, atrophied hindquarters, little bladder control, and obvious pain behavior and frequent yowling. The animal seized last weekend, and bit our daughter, leaving a deep wound. After we decided, and went through the emotional part of this process, their vet refused to euthanize. Instead, we were given a handout on keeping the cat comfortable. In all my years, I have never experienced, or heard of such a refusal. I guess the vet knows better, than the family who has lived nearly 18 years, with the cat. Needless to say we will no longer be bringing any of our pets to this clinic. I really dislike leaving a bad review, but to imagine another pet owner having to go through something like this is just appalling.

I live in the country , so my German Shephard and I walk the property as well as some of our…read moreneighbors orchards everyday. So he is almost always off leash given our location. One morning he ran off and I found him scavenging a carcass and before I could get to him, sure enough he got bone stuck in his throat. Fortunately it was not effecting his breathing, but he could not swallow and was clearly in great distress. I got him back home, called my Vet. They had no DR on staff until the afternoon. I then called every other Vet in my area, and they could either not see me because of being over capacity for appointments, or there was no Vet on Staff at the time. I loaded Max in the Truck, called ahead and told them we were coming. It was a long drive, 40 minutes with a dog in distress. When we arrived they got us in right away. Even though Max is a big , strong, and difficult dog, the veterinarian and staff were able to get the bone out of his throat with no sedation, no major procedure. They did not do anything extra, did not require an ultra sound of an X-Ray, and after all was said and done, it probably only cost me a little more than my regular Vet would have charged, and that was for an Emergency appointment. I know people will complain about the cost of VCA, but this is a 24 hour emergency service, and I for one am glad the community at least has this option given that extreme Vet shortage, and IMO anyone that takes on the responsibility of caring for an animal should be ready for things like this to come up. Great Experience, Thank You for helping my boy!

My mom's 16yr old Jack Russel had been experiencing seizures and could not walk in a straight line…read more We were recommended by the Country Vet in Live Oak to take our pet there immediately. When I called, I spoke to Jeannie (forgive me if I misspelled) who has the utmost pleasant phone etiquette and compassion. It was going to take 50 minutes to get to Chico, but Jeannie was able to get us an appointment by the time we arrived, which was immediately. As we arrived, our pet was napping and comfortable. We were checked in by Alina, who understood what was going on from the detailed notes left by Jeannie, and offered to come out to the car when our appointment time was ready (only about 15 minutes) to keep our pet comfortable. Once inside, our pet was breathing rapidly. Another Veterinarian (I presume, I didn't catch her name) stopped in their tracks as they were passing by and asked if we were there for emergency services due to the heavy panting, and had a look of concern. I appreciate she stopped to ask, fortunately at that time we were not. When it came time to our appointment, Jewel took our pet's vitals and showed great compassion. Dr.Sierra made her recommendation ever so gently, to which my mother and I understood and agreed. When it was time to say "see you later" to my mother's best friend, we were able to be in the room and share her last moments. Pets are not just 4-legged friends, they are family and the only family to some. The care, compassion, kindness, concern and professionalism were by far the best we have ever received. I have been to a different VCA location 15 years ago and cannot say the same as the VCA Valley Oak location. We will absolutely bring every pet we have in the future for any emergent needs. 10/10 Thank you all, sincerely, for everything
