I am disgusted. My dog Frenchi had to be put to sleep this weekend and our other dog, Jacaranda had…read morean epileptic seizure and was in emergency for a few days - had to be seen again a this morning. Mind you, notices were sent to her vet. Our vet here is Dr. Rodriguez. We followed her from another vet. She is an outstanding and caring vet. Jacaranda had been seen by Dr. Perry because our regular vet was not available. She had a seizure right in the waiting room, there were quite a few people working on her. Over $1,000. For her episode. She had a seizure at home and it was just the two of us and she took a pill and was fine. Dr. Perry had said dogs have seizures all the time there, which I thought was strange, I have been to a lot of vets over the years and not seen a seizure. Ever. I've mentioned this to other vets who don't seem to know what she's talking about and suggest I go elsewhere if dogs are having seizures all the time in the waiting room. Maybe it's something environmental? Today, after putting Frenchi down over the weekend, she was old and had lived a long life and was not doing great, jacaranda had a seizure and we took her into VCA Mission Valley. We took her to Kearny Mesa and we left after many hours of them not caring for her, it's a real circus there. Don't ever go there. The Mission Valley team got jacaranda back on track and I needed to take her in first thing this morning. Then I get this AI generated message that seems like I'm texting with a person saying that Dr. Perry think she should schedule a T-4 test. She just had one in Jan and it was normal. And dr. Perry is not her doctor. They received messages from VCA about what had gone on, so why harass us about anything right now? Heartless, right? I don't know what's going on there, or why the urgency for billing is happening from a vet that is not her regular vet, but I am sickened. Just crestfallen that we need to change vets because we love Dr. Rodriguez, but if this is what happens when she is out of the office - no thanks! Be aware. I just want to vomit. This is not how a vets office should be dealing with someone who just had a dog die and the other at emergency just days before. I should probably post the heartless conversation I had with two real people. Dr. Rodriguez is out of the office. She should know what is going on there. I am so sickened by this whole situation. We love you, Dr. Rodriguez, but we just can't deal with whatever is going on there. Alaura, whom I spoke with, said she would let them know that Dr. Perry is not her vet. Dr. Perry has never been her vet. She saw Dr. Perry out of necessity. Not for any other reason. Personally, I am just so disgusted. It's not bad enough all of this other stuff happened with our other dogs? It's been a bleak few days - that they were notified about - and I'm at a loss about how I even got texted about this test that the avma says should be done once a year if the last one was normal and it was done in January all of a sudden pops up. Alaura (who has always been very nice, I explained to her I do NOT want a call from management, I am just done) said someone new was working that contacted me (the original text had been AI and contacted me about this random test that doesn't need to be done right now). I should just post the conversation, it was completely mindless even when another person with more experience took over. I'm sure you would see why I am so upset. I've never had any of these random texts about tests before, why now? Why from Dr. Perry when she is not our vet? This is just about the most uncaring thing I've ever seen from a vet, mind you, we have experienced much worse from VSH. At least Rancho isn't performing unnecessary surgeries. So, there's that, at least. I'm just having a really, really bad, terrible time and this was the very, absolute last thing I needed. We won't be returning.

As we all know finding the perfect place to keep your pets healthy can be a daunting task. I've…read morenever been a fan of facilities that bring out the dreaded clip board with invisible $ signs floating in the air. I have never experienced that at this clinic. Options are given with estimated costs. Treatments are discussed. I rescued 2 cats ten years ago. Each with their own trauma. I have trusted Dr. April Rodriguez to assist with their physical and mental health. Most recently she helped my beautiful Flora cross the rainbow bridge. Having her be the one to do it meant so much to me. There's so much to love about Rancho Carlos. The front-desk staff is consistently friendly and accommodating. Cats may not love vet visits, but they have a wonderful "cat whisperer" (if I'm remembering correctly, her name is Sam). And Dr. Rodriguez truly does this work out of love--she's intuitive, selfless, and always thinking about the best next step.

Not Dr. Wang she took her time to get to know me and my dog and proceeded to the exam only when she felt he was comfortable. It is the welcome unusual almost like the old times when people and animals mattered more the just turn them and burn them and bank the money.

From start to finish, the staff was kind, thorough, and incredibly empathetic. You can tell they truly care about each and every animal that comes through their doors. Keoke is recovering well, and that's thanks to the detailed post-op instructions and attentive care she received. They even sent her home with a personalized bag, her name written so sweetly on it, and a little certificate of bravery--such thoughtful touches that meant the world to us. Nobody wants to be at the vet, especially when your pet is going through something tough, but Judy's clinic gives you peace of mind and a sense of warmth during those hard times. We trust them completely and feel so lucky to have found a place that treats our fur baby like family.

We saw Dr. Ty Blanche, and the service was truly phenomenal. As new livestock owners, we were pretty nervous going in especially since we've never dealt with a situation like this before. Waylon had nasal discharge and a cough, which is really concerning in young goats, and we were feeling overwhelmed trying to figure out what to do (especially with places like Tractor Supply no longer carrying livestock antibiotics). From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel comfortable and taken care of. Dr. Blanche was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and kind. She was extremely informative and answered all of my questions thoroughly. You can tell she genuinely cares &she is amazing! We also have a full house of animals five dogs (ranging from a Cane Corso to a Yorkie), goats, and chickens, with plans to continue growing our little farm so they will definitely be seeing a lot more of us. I'm extremely impressed by the level of customer service and top-tier care we received. This was our first visit, and it definitely won't be our last. They've gained lifelong clients and patients in us. Hopefully, we won't need emergency care again anytime soon but if we do, we know exactly where to go.

Today I was left on hold for over 30 minutes waiting to make a vaccination appt . After 30 minutes, I hung up and called back as I was afraid I had been forgotten. When I called back there was no mention of my earlier call or long hold wait. Again I tried to make an appt for a vaccine shot and was given only one option 7 weeks from today. I decided I needed to look at other options although I would have preferred to see the vet. I just wanted to check to see if this is a normal occurrence now at ECLAP or if I just called on a bad day.

I cannot say enough good things about Woodside Animal Hospital in Lakeside. We came here after my…read moredog Sasha had a severe allergic reaction to a bug bite. For weeks, I had tried everything I knew to help ease her irritation--scratching nonstop, patches of missing hair, clearly miserable. Nothing was working. A close friend highly recommended her veterinarian here and loved them so much that she insisted on calling to see if they could squeeze Sasha in. To my surprise (and huge relief), I was able to get a same-day appointment within the hour--which felt like a miracle. When I called, I spoke with Jerry, who was incredibly patient and kind as I explained everything I was seeing with Sasha. She reassured me and let me know Sasha would be examined by Dr. Luken, which immediately put me at ease. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted--and yes, Sasha too. Despite everything she had been through over the past few weeks, she was so excited you would've never known how uncomfortable she'd been. That alone says a lot about the welcoming environment here. One of the coolest surprises? They truly treat animals of all kinds. While waiting, I saw a bearded dragon (which honestly felt mythical )--like an iguana/lizard mix straight out of Australia. It was gnarly in the best way and reassuring to know this hospital is trusted with such a wide range of animals. You can absolutely rest assured your pet is in good hands. Sasha was promptly examined and given a clear, thoughtful treatment plan, including a shot, medication, and a prescription. Everything was explained thoroughly, and I never felt rushed. The staff here is beyond amazing--kind, warm, and genuinely caring, like family. I'm honestly not sure why this place doesn't have an even higher score, because they truly deserve it. I highly recommend Woodside Animal Hospital. They treat your fur baby like their own, and that kind of care is priceless.

When I picked him up that afternoon I asked should he not have a prescription for antibiotics? The answer was Doctor did not think he needs them. Really? A surgical procedure is done no antibiotics. I then asked should he not have a cone to keep him from licking or biting at the surgical site? The answer was Doctor did not think he needs one. Really? Two days later he has a ragging infection, sutures had popped open and skin in the surgical site area had died and was black. I take him back and they prescribe antibiotics and I am given a cone. To little, to late. And to add insult to injury I was told the dead black skin was a normal thing and it would just fall off. BULLSHIT! I took him to real vetrinarian where it was diagnosed that he had a full body infection, the surgical site had to be debrided. Once he was stabalized with antibiotics several days later surgury was scheduled to amputate his tail. So because of the lack of personal and professional skills a simple procedure that originally cost me 900.00 ended up costing me 5,000.00 to save his life. Just as painful ,no demonstration of empathy let alone an apology from the hack Janet Loken at Woodside Animal Kill Hospital.
