My poor Linkin got knocked down with double ear infections w blood and puss coming from one ear…read more Linkin had been itching since the start of the warm weather. The three most common culprits are fleas, food or environmental allergies. I had knocked out the food and flea as reasons for his unhappiness by ensuring he's on a limited diet and giving him a flea product. He'd been sneezing w red watery eyes so seasonal allergies made most sense. Went to my regular vet on Thursday to get some relief and I'll just say that I was told something that I'd never heard of before and left it at that. Friday night, 11pm, like clockwork My guy is crying with his head cocked and his normally rigid ears floppy w blood and puss. We made our way to Central Coast Pet Hospital and Emergency. Thankfully there were no hurting animals this night as Linkin was given a room almost immediately. The nurse was only able to examine Linkin from a distance as he at all times will make sure there is a buffer of protection around Me and the world at all times. The nurse gave an estimate for care before the vet started. We muzzle and tranquilize to start the exam. Now this is what I loved about this experience. The vet talked to me w an easy tone, like we were two friends talking about our dogs. I shared my concerns and she validated what I was observing and complimented my care of Linkin. She treated the infection, skin irritation and his liquid filled ears in quick order. The nurse with bill in hand walked in with a detailed explanation along with amazing after care instructions. I was ok with the cost because it came in a little less than the estimation and quite honestly other than the emergency charge, my vet would have charged the same. I'm looking into pet insurance this week! All in all-we came home better than how we left but more importantly we were treated w kindness and understanding which is much appreciated. Overall Grade: A+

I visited Central Coast Pet Hospital and Emergency on June 29, 2025, due to concerns about possible…read moreurinary retention in my cat. A very brief ultrasound was performed, which the staff said might show stones in the kidneys, but no further diagnostics were conducted to confirm an actual blockage. Despite the lack of a thorough evaluation, they immediately proposed a single, costly course of action--catheterization and hospitalization--quoted between $3,000 and $5,800. No less invasive options were discussed, and I was quickly handed financing brochures. The recommendation felt more like a guess than a medically grounded plan, and the overall approach came across as transactional rather than genuinely concerned with my pet's wellbeing. When I hesitated to consent, I was told, "If your cat doesn't have this procedure done, he will die," in a tone that felt more pressuring than informative. The entire interaction felt off--rushed, transactional, and lacking in genuine concern. I ultimately chose to leave and seek another opinion. After declining treatment, I was not allowed to see my cat until I paid my balance--only then was he returned to me. I sought a second opinion from another veterinarian within the next two hours. That vet conducted a thorough exam, confirmed there were no signs of blockage, and advised giving it more time. My cat was playful, eating normally, and showed no signs of distress--completely inconsistent with the diagnosis made by Lizzie Adam, the "veterinarian" at Central Coast Pet Hospital and Emergency. He urinated at home the following day without issue, confirming that the invasive ($3,000-$5,800) intervention was unnecessary. Worse, the medical summary from Central Coast included a claim that I declined treatments (pain meds and bladder expression) that were never offered to me. This kind of inaccurate documentation raises serious ethical concerns. I would not recommend Central Coast Pet Hospital and Emergency. In my experience, their priority did not seem to be the wellbeing of the animal, but rather the financial upsell. I encourage others to read the other negative reviews--many of which echo similar concerns. Veterinary care should be collaborative, honest, and compassionate. Sadly, that was not what I encountered here. Thank you for telling me my cat was "going to die!" He's alive and well--no thanks to your group.

Our amazing little Allie died about 3 weeks ago after being with our family for 14 of her 15 years…read moreof life. She was the only pet my girls ever had and also the only pet my wife ever had, so she was extremely special to all of us. We asked her vet what we should do after she passed at home and they said that they could help us take care of the cremation, if that's what we wanted to do. They asked a few questions in terms of private cremation versus communal and we chose the private. We took Allie over to the vet office and handed her over without really knowing what to expect. A couple of weeks later we received a call that her remains were back and that we could pick them up. I was just so pleasantly surprised and how much care was taken and simply the packaging and presentation to us as a surviving family. The beautiful little cedar box with its little gold lock was perfect. The card to our family and Tlthe cremation certificate gave us peace of mind that Allie was treated with care and respect. I went online to see if I could find out more about Oak Hills Memorial Pet Cremation and was so pleased to see the reviews from others who had had similarly positive experiences. If you find yourself in the same situation my family did 3 weeks ago, be sure to ask your vet about cremation options and put Oak Hills at the top of that list of service providers. You'll be glad you did.

They've serviced all my pets the last 25 years, totally impressed, I'm happy they are here, I felt…read morecomfortable that my pet DeeBo would be in good hands.

I was shocked when Orcutt Vet told me they could perform the same surgery for one-third of the price I had been quoted elsewhere. That was the moment I realized I had finally found a vet I could trust. Since then, I've brought my newest rescue dog in for an eye surgery, which again was priced very fairly. One thing I appreciate most is their transparency: they always explain which costs are essential and which are optional, and they have never made me feel guilty or ashamed when I've needed to stay within a budget. I have another surgery coming up for my cat, and once again the pricing is extremely reasonable. On top of all that, they gave my senior Cocker Spaniel mix what I call a "miracle shot" that completely stopped her itching. I had tried everything--different foods, shampoos, supplements--and nothing worked until this. If your dog struggles with itchy skin, I can't recommend this place enough. Orcutt Veterinary Hospital has earned my complete trust. They are honest, compassionate, affordable, and genuinely care about both pets and their owners. I'm so grateful to have found them.

We had to make the heartbreaking decision to say goodbye to our beloved dog, and they treated her with such dignity, love, and respect. Everyone was patient, caring, and took the time to explain everything to us without making us feel rushed. They comforted us throughout the entire process and made an incredibly painful experience a little easier to bear. I will always be grateful for the empathy, professionalism, and genuine care they showed my dog and our family. Thank you for helping us say goodbye with peace and compassion. I highly recommend this hospital to anyone looking for a veterinary team that truly cares.

Unbelievably great service. From our first phone call, of course on a holiday weekend, to meeting…read morethe front staff, and the talented vet techs. EVERYONE was kind, soothing and eager to help. My 11 year old Chihuahua-terrier mix dislocated her hip, she was crying in pain, we were beside ourselves, unable to help her. My husband called around who was open on a holiday weekend, and we found Atascadero Pet Hospital. They immediately invited us in to their beautiful facility and put my baby under anesthesia and put her hip back in place. We took her home in a hip sling, and she did wonderfully. We only had to give her the pain medicine that they sent us home with the first and second night. Today was our follow up and the hip sling is off and now we all have to do is pray that keeping her contained for a few more weeks with careful handling, her hip will heal and not need further surgery. I just can't express how much gratitude I have to these kind people and how wonderfully they treated us. I especially want a shout out to a young man, I think his name is Juan, young man, very handsome and just so in tuned to everything we needed to hear and how to take care of her once we got her home. He went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and assured us that we could call anytime of day or night if something happened that wasn't right or if my pet was in pain. I can't tell you how much this meant to us. Monkey is healing. We are so relieved to know that there are experts out there that will help us and be kind to our animals. Of course, the surgeon and the vets were amazing as well, so thank you to them and thank you for the time that they also spent with us explaining our options. And I just want to add, that those inaccurate reviews of this wonderful facility are likely hyperbole. Being a healthcare provider myself, for humans, I know, you can't make everybody happy. And you can't make miracles happen every time. There are many variables to consider when making a recommendation about options for health, and quality of life. It may not be an easy fix, and it may not be the best for the pet. And sometimes that's hard to hear. And, quite frankly, healthcare even if it's for a pet, is quite expensive. It's part of being a pet owner (or human). I was actually quite amazed that my dog had full-on anesthesia and her hip put back in place and a sling placed for such a reasonable amount. It was even less than they had quoted us and, they didn't ask to do a bunch of bloodwork and everything else ahead of time. They just took her to surgery and put her hip back in. Amazing! I stand behind what I said, these people are very mindful and compassionate in the work they do.
