Based on knowing the breed's challenging traits, the vet used effective techniques to handle my shiba and successfully completed the task at hand. The vet spent quite a bit of time in the examination room getting to know my dog, to get my dog acclimated and to stay calm. Great and thorough communication with the staff all around, from the front desk to the intake and examination. Literally, a weight has been lifted off my shoulders regarding a veterinary clinic that knows how to handle a shiba inu and that my dog's needs are met. Thank you so very much Animal Hospital

I rarely leave negative reviews, but after losing my male eastern indigo snake, "Indica", I feel…read moreobligated to share my experience so other exotic pet owners can make an informed decision. I brought Indica to Animal Hospital of Sebastopol because I specifically wanted an experienced reptile veterinarian for a federally threatened species. Before scheduling, I asked how the urgent drop-off process worked and was told I would receive updates during the day regarding the doctor's findings and treatment recommendations. I also asked to make sure the vet felt comfortable treating a rare & valuable species. When I dropped him off, I explained that I work in healthcare as a medical receptionist and cannot answer phone calls while checking in patients. I specifically told the staff I would be available during my lunch break from 12:20-1:20 p.m. and asked that, outside of that window, they leave me a voicemail or send me a text if they needed anything. Instead, I received no communication at all. By around 4:15 p.m., I became worried enough to step away from work while a coworker covered my desk so I could call the hospital. I was placed on hold multiple times, transferred between staff members, and no one could tell me whether my snake had even been seen. My frustration was never that emergency patients came first. I understand triage. My frustration was the complete lack of communication despite being told I would receive updates and despite providing multiple ways to reach me. I was also charged for sexing my snake without anyone telling me beforehand there would be an additional fee. That charge was only removed after I questioned it. When I spoke with Dr. Annabelle, I repeatedly told her that I appreciated her fitting my snake into her schedule and understood emergency patients came first. I was never asking her to stop treating another patient. However, when I expressed concerns about the lack of communication and told her I did not believe this was simply a bad shed, I felt dismissed. The conversation focused on how she sees approximately 15 patients a day, that she couldn't interrupt anesthetized procedures for a stable snake, that this is how urgent drop-off appointments work, and that she texted me "when she could." The problem was that the text wasn't sent until after I had already called the hospital because I was worried and couldn't get answers from anyone. Afterward, I emailed the practice manager. The billing discrepancy was corrected, but I had to follow up separately just to obtain my snake's records. I was then told they felt I should seek another veterinary hospital. As Indica's condition worsened, I emailed Animal Hospital of Sebastopol again asking for medical guidance because Dr. Annabelle was the only veterinarian who had physically examined him. I explained that I had followed the treatment plan exactly and desperately needed to know whether what I was seeing was expected. That email was never answered. I ultimately had to make the heartbreaking decision to euthanize Indica. The day after he was gone, UC Davis called asking my permission to send his records to Animal Hospital of Sebastopol because AHOS had requested them. It was devastating to learn they had time to contact another veterinary hospital regarding my snake's case while never responding to my final plea for help. I later received a second opinion from UC Davis, where I was informed that the original diagnosis from Animal Hospital of Sebastopol was not the correct diagnosis, just as I had predicted. Based on my experience, I would never trust Animal Hospital of Sebastopol with another exotic animal. If you own an exotic pet and your instincts tell you something isn't right, don't be afraid to seek a second opinion. I only wish I had done so sooner.

I made an appointment over the phone last week for today at 1:30 February 14th. I bought a dog friendly Uber to get there half an hour early for the appointment, and they are closed. I assumed they were just on lunch. I wait until 2pm and there is no one in the parking lot, the phone goes straight to voicemail, no sign of any staff. No notice of cancelation of the appointment in my voicemail or email.

Saying goodbye to my sweet Ollie at 18.5 years old was one of the hardest things I've ever faced…read more The team at Wine Country Veterinary Hospital met me with compassion, patience, and understanding every step of the way. I scheduled and canceled Ollie's euthanasia appointment four different times because I just wasn't ready, and they never once made me feel guilty or pressured. They even allowed me to arrive and then back out when I couldn't go through with it. That level of kindness and humanity is something I will never forget. When the time finally came, they gave Ollie such a peaceful, dignified passing, and gave me the space and support I needed. I also want pet owners to be aware that many veterinary clinics today are owned by VCA Animal Hospitals, which is part of Mars Corp. the same company behind well-known candy brands. Since that corporate takeover, many practices have become more expensive with vets and staff paid commissions on what procedures they sell! Wine Country Veterinary Hospital is independent and not owned by VCA/Mars, and it truly shows not only in their fair pricing, but in the genuine, heartfelt care they give. I am deeply grateful to have found a place that still puts compassion first. Thank you for helping me through one of the most painful moments of my life.

The veterinary technician who met us at the door was calm and kind (sorry I can't remember her name). The vet, Dr. Rosenthal took the time to listen as I explained the details. She never made me feel rushed, had an excellent bedside manner, and explained her thought process, which gave me confidence. After examining my cat, they recommended chest X-rays and provided a written estimate up front. They let me know the evaluation would take about 1-2 hours and even offered me a comfort room where I could stay with my cat and lie down while we waited. That small act of kindness meant more than they probably realize after a long drive in the middle of the night. When the results came back, Dr. Rosenthal explained the evaluation and thankfully, it was not her heart. She answered all of my questions patiently--even when I asked for clarification or repeated myself because it was the middle of the night and there was a lot to process. The final bill was actually lower than the estimate, which was a pleasant bonus. Fortunately, my cat's situation turned out not to be the scenario I had feared, but if I ever have another emergency, I would not hesitate to bring my cats here again. Thank you to the entire team for making such a stressful experience as calm and compassionate as possible.
