Every doctor, vet tech, and front desk staff member treated him with genuine compassion and made me feel like he was truly cared for, not just another appointment. From routine visits to managing his kidney disease near the end of his life, I always felt supported, informed, and listened to. Their recommendation for in home euthanasia through Lap of Love was also incredibly thoughtful and helped make the hardest day of my life a little more peaceful. I will always be grateful for the kindness and care they showed both Seamus and me.

The care, warmth, attention, and genuine love they show their patients and their families is extraordinary. For many years, Dr. Justin Gaudier was our regular vet, and we miss him so much. But the entire team is just wonderful. Today we went in for something as simple as a weigh-in, and Nurse Katana was an absolute gem -- so kind, helpful, patient, and caring. And then, as if all of that wasn't enough, she makes little gingerbread dog treats herself and gave some to me and my baby boy when we left and he LOVED them. It's that kind of thoughtfulness that really says everything about the people at Modern Animal. It's the little things, the warmth, and the consistently extraordinary level of care that make me so happy that we trust Modern Animal with our furry family members. I highly, highly recommend them to anyone looking for a veterinary team that treats your pets like family.

For…read moreany emergencies or if a specialist needs to get in touch with a doctor here, Modern Animal is absolutely awful. I don't understand what my membership pays for when I get responses in 2-3 business days. For context, my dog had to have an emergency stent placed due to a collapsed trachea. The surgeon that performed this had a lot of questions for her cardiologist and what type of medicine he would be ok prescribing due to her heart issues. It's been 6 weeks since her surgery and he nor I have been able to get in contact with any doctor, just the customer service reps. She also routinely sees an eye doctor and also has tried to get in touch with her primary doctor to no avail. I have spent tens of thousands of dollars at this place with all 3 of my dogs and I find this exceptionally unacceptable. I would never recommend Modern Animal to anyone. Pick a local vet, not a revolving door.

I took both my pets, Tito and Maui for a combined appointment and was met with nothing but kindness, professionalism and affection for my two fur babies. Dr. Chen was so gently with my Dachshund who is paralyzed on the backside and treated him with such care he wasn't shaking... Which has NEVER happened before in a vet's office. He is usually trembling in fear. They recommended a very conservative treatment plan with care for my pets but also not trying to push any services that werent necessary. THANK YOU DR. CHEN for going above and beyond to make my first experience remarkable. If I could give you 10 STARS I would. I hope everyone who loves and cares about their fur babies takes a chance on you and your practice, because Vets like you are hard to find.

I am thankful I got a second opinion for my cat. The male receptionist is unprofessional, rude, and glaringly lazy. The vet himself acted like I was a burden for wanting to discuss my cat's tests results. I highly recommend Paw Priority on melrose instead. This vet office does not care.

My brother in law had recently moved to Canada, and his dog fell sick while still in the U.S. I was trying to figure out how to get the dog safely to Canada given his medical condition, and I called several clinics for guidance. Most places required an appointment just to answer basic questions, which made the situation even more stressful. Dr. Nassi was kind enough to explain that if we were driving the dog to Canada, we did not need a medical certificate, which meant we did not have to wait for an appointment or go through a lengthy certification process. The clinic also reviewed and validated the rabies certificate over email without charging us. As someone who does not own a dog and was trying to handle this on behalf of my brother in law, I was feeling very overwhelmed. Dr. Nassi really helped us understand the right path forward and made it possible for us to get the dog back to his owner. I am extremely thankful for the kindness and support we received. I highly recommend this clinic. The entire team, including the reception staff, was warm, patient, and very helpful.

The team at CVH guided us through one of the most stressful experiences we've had as pet owners. They carefully managed the necessary testing, medications, and expenses with both professionalism and compassion. Thanks to their excellent care, our kitten is now nearly two years old and has remained in FIP remission ever since. Beyond their medical expertise, their communication, scheduling, and genuine empathy are exceptional. Every interaction has made us feel like our pets--and our concerns--truly matter. Most recently, we accidentally showed up on the wrong day for an appointment. Even though the mistake was completely ours, the staff still went out of their way to try to accommodate us. That level of kindness and customer service is rare. I also want to mention that we used Fetch Pet Insurance during our kitten's FIP treatment, and it was invaluable in helping cover the significant costs of care. While that's separate from the hospital itself, it made an incredibly difficult situation much more manageable. I recommend Cahuenga Veterinary Hospital without hesitation. If you're looking for a veterinary team that combines outstanding medical care with genuine compassion, this is the place.

They are a scam!…read more Horrible service! All they want is your money! My cat is very sick! So They charged me very expensive exams and no answer... they were supposed to call me on Friday to talk about the next steps and... nothing! The doctor gave a 14 day antibiotic to my cat and charged me for that, it came to my house with a 3 day dosage. I called and ask the why, it could be a mistake, it happens, the front desk agent said the reason was that the doctor was waiting for his blood exams to know if they would keep the antibiotics or not. Very confused! And they charged me for the 14 days! I had to go get more medicine and again they were short. Either they don't know what they are doing or they were stealing from me. So I talked to a very very passive aggressive pharmacist who was trying to imply that I was dumb, maybe because of my accent and that she was the one that made the medicine in the first place and it was correct. So why front desk said something different? Well nobody called me to this day to talk for sure what is going on.... Horrible just horrible! And the doctor wasn't sure if I could afford the exams... excuse me?

I want to address several statements to the owner because they do not accurately reflect what…read morehappened. First, please do not characterize my behavior as bullying. I have every email I sent, and while my emotions were understandably high because my dog's life was at risk, I never once disrespected, threatened, or bullied anyone. Being emotional while advocating for my senior dog is not the same as being abusive. Second, you were not the person who spoke with me on the phone, yet your response is written as though you personally witnessed that conversation. Comprehension of what I actually said matters. I never said the receptionist herself was irritating. I said it was frustrating that she repeatedly told me pyometra is a deadly infection--which I was already fully aware of. If I didn't understand the seriousness of pyometra, I would not have been advocating so persistently to save Shivers. There are no inconsistencies in my story. Financially, I consistently explained that I am unemployed, receive public assistance, and earned less than $40,000, which met the financial criteria for your foundation. Those facts never changed. What upset me was the phone call regarding Cherry financing. I never shared information about Cherry with the receptionist, yet she brought it up and assumed we had remaining funds available. That assumption was incorrect. I was not approved for Cherry--my sister was. There were no remaining funds to use. I also have an itemized invoice from Love Animal Hospital showing exactly what was paid. Of course I applied to the other resources your organization provided. Unfortunately, none of the foundations were able to assist, and the "low-cost" veterinary clinics I contacted were still quoting over $2,000 for surgery, which is simply not affordable for me. My emotional circumstances have also remained consistent. My grandmother, Veronica, passed away from sepsis on Mother's Day. My other grandmother, Morena, is currently battling Stage 4 adenocarcinoma. I explained that Shivers is my emotional support animal, which is why I fought so hard to obtain surgery for her. Those statements have never changed. Please also do not make assumptions about my history with Shivers. I only became Shivers' legal owner last year. From the time we adopted her until 2025, she lived with my mother. Beginning in 2025, she began living independently with me. When I was 12 years old, I repeatedly asked my mother to have Shivers spayed, but my mother believed she was too fragile for surgery. Looking back, of course I wish she had been spayed years ago, but that decision was never mine to make. I only became financially independent in 2025, and shortly afterward I lost my job. While someone might say I had a year to pursue surgery, I was not aware of pyometra at that time, and Shivers was already a senior dog. I never expected this medical emergency to happen. I am also not entitled. I come from a low-income household and have always been humble about my circumstances. This was never about me asking for special treatment. It has always been about trying to save Shivers. What made the phone call so upsetting was that the receptionist made it seem as though having Cherry financing meant your organization was no longer willing to help us. That was confusing because just the week before she had encouraged me to call her back on Sunday so we could try to get Shivers in for surgery. The change in communication left me feeling like I had suddenly been sent back to square one. Pyometra surgery is an expensive emergency procedure. Given my financial situation and other responsibilities, it simply was not something I could afford on my own. That is why I reached out to your foundation in the first place. I respectfully ask that my concerns be addressed based on what actually occurred rather than assumptions about my intentions or character. I AM ATTACHING SCREENSHOT OF THE EMAILS I HAVE SENT THIS FOUNDATION THE OWNER IS DEFINITELY LYING ABOUT MY CHARACTER OF BEING A BULLY. If this is what you call "bullying" you need tough skin and should not be helping people that are emotionally just trying to advocate for their pets! You as the owner unfortunately lack logic. 14 years ago I was 11 so you tell me how I was supposed to spay my dog? Jesus Christ. I guess at 11 I'm supposed to be an adult and make these decisions.
