    Alamitos Animal Hospital came highly recommended by friends and family, and I completely see why. Dr. Albert Leung is a fantastic, straightforward vet who truly cares. Albert & his team successfully removed a benign tumor from my senior dog's forehead last year and handled a dental extraction seamlessly. Most recently, he helped us treat a sudden limp in my dog's rear leg. He always takes the time to answer my questions and clearly explain our treatment options, starting with the most practical ones. Thanks to Dr. Leung and his warm, accommodating team, my dog is back to his happy, normal self. Highly recommend!

    What is very happy now?And so am I , his nose is almost completely healed , and the operation on his ear went very well
    Charles K.

    I had an emergency with my cat on a Saturday afternoon. And luckily, they were open until one, they took him in evaluate that he had cancer on his ear, and they would need to operate on him, and they did it Monday, and he came out just fine on it. And they also healed some places on his nose, and all in all, I thought they were very caring and they did a follow-up to see if he was all right. So I was very pleased with the service altogether

    I'm so glad I found Alamitos Veterinary Hospital through my adoption center's recommendation. Dr. Leung was kind, caring, and took the time to thoroughly explain my kitten's sneezing and treatment plan. He made me feel comfortable and answered all of my questions. I truly appreciated his patience and compassion, and I highly recommend him and the clinic.

    My dog which is a frenchie

    I didn't call or make an appointment, I waited 30 minutes at the most and my frenchie was seen by Dr. Leung. Dr. Leung was very nice and explained in detail what was wrong with my dog. My dog came in shivering and in pain (rear legs). My dog loves to jump even though I try to keep him from doing that. Dr gave him a Cortisone shot and some medication. My dog is doing a lot better!! This is my vet moving forward!!! My friend who also has a frenchie referred me here, thank u buddy!!

    We had a really sick dog last week. No reason in particular, just fell ill. Dr Leung was very through, and explained what may be going on. His staff are really kind and gentle. The vet bill came out to be higher than we were expecting but I'm just glad he's feeling better. He had had staff that's been with him for 15+ years, which tells me he's not only a good vet but a good employer. All due respect, hope to never see him again - but if we have to, he will be our boys Dr moving forward.

    I had to put my old grey cat down because it was time. The staff showed me so much compassion. I was immediately escorted to a exam room despite a waiting room full of customers. The doctor came in and talked to me. It was reassuring and I felt better about the decision I had to make. I was given the option to stay or go. I stayed because I love my mean old cat and he seemed to be fond of me. I couldn't bear to leave him. I was provided as much time as I needed to hold him after they sedated him. They checked on me to see if I was ready. They gave my cat some medication in his vein and it was over pretty darn quick. The compassion I felt certainly made the whole process easier.

    I started coming here during early covid because I got puppies before covid and I could not get into other offices in a timely manner including my prior vet. I kept coming here because of his Dr Leung's caring manner and reasonable prices. There are nicer hospitals, newer and more state of the art, and you can go there if you want to pay those prices, but their vets aren't better and they tend to push you to do more using their fancy equipment. I bring all 5 of my pets here for almost 6 years. Also, if your cat gets spayed, make a bodysuit out of a diabetic sock per wikihow. Worked for my fiesty kitten.

    The vet was very kind and funny! My cat had an eye infection and needed shots. The prices are very reasonable. Affordable care and walk-ins make this a super convenient spot for my cat to be cared for.

We were incredibly worried and scared about him, and it was such an emotional and overwhelming time for us. From the moment we met Dr. Eskander, she was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also so compassionate, patient, and genuinely caring. She treated Appa with so much kindness and love, and she made us feel like we were not alone through such a difficult experience. What really touched our hearts was how much she cared about us too. She took the time to answer our questions, listen to our concerns, and reassure us when we were scared. She helped calm both me and my husband when we needed it most. And then, even after Appa's visit, Dr. Eskander followed up with us to make sure he was okay. That meant more to us than she probably realizes. It showed us that Appa wasn't just another patient to her. She truly cared about how he was doing. As pet parents, all we want is someone who will care for our babies as much as we do, and Dr. Eskander gave us exactly that. We will forever be grateful for the compassion, kindness, and care she showed our boy. Thank you, Dr. Eskander, for taking such wonderful care of Appa and for giving two very worried pet parents some much-needed comfort during a very difficult time. We will never forget your kindness. If you are looking for a veterinarian who genuinely cares about both your pet and your family, we cannot recommend Dr. Eskander enough.

He never recommend anything that's unnecessary and we - clients appreciate it so much! Neemo has been spayed here and did see Dr many times and been cured here many times. She has good experiences here as well as Ozzy ( though Ozzy is scared of everything, she managed to overcome her fear here so yk the staff are very gentle) If you're curious, prices here are affordable/ reasonable to me.

Around our house, he's simply known as The Cat Whisperer. Somehow he has this magical "Dr. Ash method" that can calm even my most nervous, difficult cats. Cats that normally hide, hiss, or make everyone work for it seem to trust him. I still haven't figured out his secret! What really sets Dr. Ash apart is the time he gives every patient and every pet parent. He never makes you feel rushed. He explains blood work and treatment options in incredible detail, answers every question, and has even called me in the evening to personally discuss test results. That level of care and dedication is almost unheard of. I also want to recognize his amazing staff. Raquel, Andrea, and everyone at the clinic are always so kind, patient, and genuinely caring. Whether they're drawing blood, collecting urine samples, trimming nails, or giving one of my cats a sanitary trim, they handle each cat with such compassion and professionalism. You can tell they truly love what they do. I've trusted Dr. Ash and his team with my cats for many years, and I wouldn't trust anyone more. They treat every one of my cats as if they were their own, and that means the world to me. And here's the highest compliment I can give him: if Dr. Ash ever moved to Timbuktu... I'd be pricing moving trucks the same day. That's how much I trust him. Thank you, Dr. Ash, Raquel, Andrea, and the entire team for the exceptional care you've given my furry family over the years. You are all simply the best.

    It took me some processing time to get to writing this review, but I think it's time now. I took my…read moreShiba pup to this vet about 11 years ago, and then switched vets because I moved further away. In June 2026, I was frantically calling vet offices after receiving an unforeseen and distressing diagnosis for my (then-senior) Shiba at the emergency VCA in Fountain Valley. The receptionist was very attentive and nice, and was able to get us seen straight away in the morning when they opened. Aside from the really great customer/patient service, the lobby was small, but very clean. The atmosphere isn't dreary, which I really appreciated at the time. We were seen by Dr. Acevedo, who was very professional and warm. I explained what was happening to my 11.5 year old boy--he was diagnosed with pericardial effusion, cardiac tamponade with ascites--and she explained very thoroughly what they were going to do that day. I did have to drop him off for most of the day and pick him up at the end of it, which I didn't love, but I understand it's because I was basically a very last-minute appointment, and the procedure they were going to do was a drain plus radiographs along with other tests. Unfortunately, as his symptoms progressed aggressively and Dr. Acevedo had results to talk about with me, she let me know over the phone that the prognosis was not good. I then went in, where she showed me the radiographs and gave me a detailed explanation of what she was seeing, and even compared my dog's x-ray to a healthy dog's x-ray to help me understand better what was happening. Dr. Acevedo was very sincere, she told me she's seen this several times before, and the outlook based on what she saw would mean my boy would be in a constant state of recovery. Eventually, I made the very painful decision to lay him to rest with an at-home service with a different practice the next week. Overall, Dr. Acevedo was incredible. Because his decline was so rapid, I was constantly blowing up the phone at her office asking about everything ranging from treatments, to what I should look out for so that I don't wait too long to lay him to rest. Every time, she was very informative and tried to help me with what I was going through with my best friend. Thank you to everyone at Lincoln Animal Hospital. When the time comes, I will be glad to bring my next pup back here. It's worth the drive.

Looks like we will be headed in to his primary vet to get this treated. Waste of 278 dollars on a visit. Really wish my boy could have been treated the first time around.

We came twice within a span of two months. The first time, they informed us that our 13 year-old dog has heart condition. They told us she isn't in pain and that medication would help. They warned us that she's in the later stages of her heart condition. They were able to give her an IV with medication and oxygen to help her. We asked if it was her time, but they said not yet. The staff during this visit weren't the friendliest. We took her to her primary vet the next day and got medication prescribed. We were told again that she's okay and it's not her time yet, but to watch for the warning signs and to prepare ourselves. Unfortunately, a month after the first visit, she had a really bad episode in which we knew it was her time. We brought her back and luckily the staff during this second visit were more warm and comforting. They confirmed that it would be best to let her go and so we let her cross the rainbow bridge.

One thing I'd say is that we were sad that they mixed up her blanket and so they had hers in the back in the wash. We asked for it back and they gave it to us wet.
