DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOG TO THIS VET On April 12th we took our dog in to an emergency appointment and it was the worst mistake we could have made. Our dog was experiencing pain on one of her hind legs. After $1200, she was misdiagnosed with a partial ligament tear, was given anti-inflammatory meds and we went off with a plan to return on April 17th for follow up blood work as her CBC (WBC) were dangerously low. On Wednesday, April 15 my dog began vomiting and having bloody diarrhea, I contacted Dry Creek the next day to give them an update and was told to monitor and keep the planned appointment for April 17th. On April 17th we went back and my dog was experiencing a very high fever, I told them I didn't want to continue to give her the carprofen because I think that's what caused the upset stomach, I had last administered it on Thursday April 16th. Dr Lehil agreed and changed her anti-inflammatory meds, and prescribed other meds (antibiotics). Kept our dog for the day and released her that evening after she was showing no signs of a fever. During the weekend my dog stopped eating and drinking water and we were to return on Monday, April 20th for yet another follow-up. At that time my dog had a fever again, and we were told we could keep her there or take her to another vet - that's when I should have ran but because they knew what was going on with my dog, had administered bloodwork, etc we kept her there for the day. At 5 pm when we picked her up my dog still had a fever and we were told it was because she was excited while she was kenneled. The Dr (a different vet) told me to take her off of the anti-inflammatory and put her on a strict bland diet. They also prescribed more meds that I never gave my dog because I was petrified of how my dog would react to yet more medication. We took her home and by 7 pm I was rushing her to VCA Loomis for an emergency. My dog became unstable and began breathing rapidly and her fever had increased, in addition I noticed her paw was injured while at Dry Creek earlier that day. VCA Loomis did an ultrasound and when I shared with the vet that they changed out her anti-inflammatory pills from one day to the next she became concerned that my dog may have developed an ulcer as it is recommended that at least 5 days pass before a new anti-inflammatory is administered. In fact, the ultrasound determined my dog had quite a bit of inflammation to her GI system. In addition, the vet at VCA Loomis told me my dog had a complete tear of the ligament and not partial as we had previously been told by Dr. Lehil. I called Dry Creek asking to talk to the owner or office manager and they never called, I went in 2 weeks later and was told the owner would call me. She called the next day and basically said they did what was recommended, didn't take responsibility for any of it and put it on me saying I had the option of taking her to VCA Loomis. All in all, we spent close to $3500 at Dry Creek and my dog's health only deteriorated. If it weren't for VCA Loomis we may have lost her. read more

Dry Creek Veterinary Center - My dog Charlie Brown - Veterinarians Near Me - Roseville, California

I am writing to lodge a bad experience regarding the unacceptable and misleading practices I experienced at Dry Creek Veterinary in Roseville. I brought my dog in specifically for a dental cleaning based on a coupon your office mailed, which clearly stated the total cost would be $600 and would include bloodwork, x‑rays, and medication. What occurred instead was entirely inconsistent with the offer presented. I had an appointment to bring my dog in at 8 am for the dental procedure. My dog was taken to the back to get her teeth cleaned (which I thought). I was told to she would be done around 3 pm. I left. About 30 minutes later I get a call that her bloodwork wasn't good and I needed to come back and pick her up. I was then informed--after the fact--that her results were "not good enough" to proceed with the dental cleaning and was charged $300. I was further instructed to return in two weeks for another round of bloodwork, at an additional cost of $300, before the procedure could even be considered. This is indefensible. My dog had recently undergone the same bloodwork at another veterinary clinic, where her results were normal and she was fully cleared for a dental cleaning priced at $1,500. The $600 coupon from Dry Creek Veterinary appeared to be a legitimate offer, yet it resulted in nothing more than an unexpected $300 charge and a refusal to perform the service. I was told her enzymes were too high for anesthesia--an issue that did not exist at the other clinic. None of this was communicated upfront. The lack of transparency was compounded by the fact that my dog was kept in the back and not returned to me until after I paid the $300 charge. This created an environment of pressure and left me with the clear impression that the coupon was being used as a bait‑and‑switch tactic to lure customers in and then impose additional, undisclosed fees. This experience was not only misleading but exploitative. I left feeling taken advantage of, and I will not be returning. I believe this conduct is inappropriate, unprofessional, and harmful to pet owners who trust your clinic to act with honesty and integrity. I expect this matter to be taken seriously and addressed appropriately to prevent others from being subjected to similar treatment. read more

Unfortunately, after 6 years of being a loyal client of Dry Creek and recommending this clinic to many others, I can no longer stand by that recommendation. Since the separation of the two veterinary owners, the quality of care and customer service has noticeably declined. Dr. Lehil (the male veterinarian) was outstanding. He was honest, reliable, and deeply committed to both animals and their owners. Unfortunately, during their divorce, the clinic shut down without any warning, leaving many of us scrambling to find care and having difficulty gaining access to our pets' medical records. Since the clinic eventually reopened under the sole direction of the remaining Dr. Lehil (female), things have not been the same. The staff now appears disorganized and unprofessional, the operating hours are unpredictable and keep changing, and the overall atmosphere feels more focused on profit than care. I tried to remain optimistic, assuming these were temporary challenges during a transition period. But after nearly two years of continued decline, it's clear this is not a short-term issue. read more

I will never forgive this clinic for what they put my dog -- and me -- through. I trusted them with my best friend's life for years and especially in a desperate time of need. On one of the worst days of my life their mistreatment and lack of compassion will forever haunt me. From the moment I brought him in, I felt dismissed and unheard. My concerns were brushed off, they showed little urgency, and their attitude made it clear they cared more about money than truly helping. Instead of giving my dog the care he desperately needed and advice I was desperately seeking to help him, they did nothing to help -- I live with the pain of knowing I brought him to the wrong veterinarians and center. Losing a pet is devastating enough, but knowing it happened at a faster rate because of negligence and poor communication or explanation of my dogs diagnosis is unforgivable. Please think twice before trusting this clinic with your animals. Our pets deserve kindness, competence, and respect -- none of which we received here. read more

Customer service here is the worst I've ever dealt with. From the receptionist not even acknowledging my existence when I walk through the door, to the sharp remarks when asking about the process of a simple heartworm test. As I was driving home the receptionist called me and said blankly, "your dog has Lyme disease you need to come back to get medication". So I drove back in a panic, only to speak to the doctor the my dog was "exposed", no treatment needed. I ordered my heart guard online through chewy, only to be denied because they did not give my dogs an exam while we were in the office. I will need to go back in the office before approval. Their office is a mess. Their prices are outrageous. After 5 years, I'm out & never coming back. Choose somewhere else to take your loved ones. read more

I contacted them right before they closed and asked them if they would see my daughter's dog, who was very sick. They agreed and we ended up having to put our dog down and they were so compassionate during the whole procedure. They didn't rush us and stayed open to allow us to grieve. I highly recommend them and will be using them for my other dogs care. They were simply amazing. read more

I wanted to give my dogs a specific vaccine that is 0.5 ml as opposed to the regular 1 ml. I couldn't find this particular vaccine anywhere and called 11 vets. None of them are willing to place a special order until I called Dry Creek Veterinary Center. They were willing to place the order. I offered to pay for the entire case of vaccines but they said that wasn't necessary. They went out of their way to help me and my furkids. I highly recommend them. The staff was friendly and extremely helpful. They have wonderful communication and I am more than satisfied. read more

Dry Creek Veterinary Center - Happy pups - Veterinarians Near Me - Roseville, California

Underwhelmed by their bedside manners and service. They became the first vet I used since moving to the area from the Bay Area and just from the level of communication I already knew it wasn't going to be the best care my pup was getting. Unfortunately, due to timing (pandemic) and what my dog needed, we were a bit strained for options. My dog needed to get neutered and updates on his shots. He also had a microchip placed. When I say my dog came back botched and bloodied I felt so bad. And this was my first time having a dog or going through this process so I know what other care has looked like. They didn't care to even clean the blood from where they placed the microchip on his neck/back. Fast forward, every time I need updates on vaccines or even support getting an Rx through - it is like pulling teeth. I will leave a voicemail and no response for over a week. I will keep trying again to only get a "Can we call you back?". Well sure - doesn't look like I have an option. This has happened 3 times. Two of the times for an Rx and 1 time for a follow up schedule. The last straw was having my year long Rx canceled because they couldn't respond to the Pharmacy in time. The Pharmacy even tried calling them a couple of times and then resorted to calling me. The only reason why I give 2 stars versus one is they didn't try to upsell me on anything, probably because the vet techs didn't even know what to look for. They just did a visual once over on my dog and had us on our way. I miss my old vets and have since been on the search for another place to take my dog. read more

We love the service and staff here at Dry Creek! My dog is normally super nervous, but after a few minutes he calms down & they're so good and relaxed with him. read more

Dry Creek Veterinary Center - Dallas waiting his turn to be seen! - Veterinarians Near Me - Roseville, California

Be sure all measures are taken to ensure a good outcome. I took my 10 yr old dog in for her annual dental cleaning. Did the blood work, pre-exam and all looked okay. I mentioned a previous vet had told me she had a heart murmer. The vet (not sure her name) listened and said she did not have a murmer, so all is good to go ahead. As soon as they put my dog under anisthesia she died. Did she have a heart condition??? Did they administer the anisthesia improperly?? I chose not to have an autopsy, as it won't change the fact that my angel is gone. A more though exam (not a brief exam) may have identified a risk. read more

I've been bringing my dog here for about a year and a half. While I've always appreciated the doctor's knowledge and kind demeanor, my recent experiences have left me feeling disappointed. I was recently contacted about an outstanding bill from May of last year, which came as a surprise. When I asked for clarification, I was told by an employee (Ben) that they had previously been "charging too little," and have since raised their prices -- nearly doubling them. No prior notice or communication was given to long-time customers about this significant price hike. On top of that, something seems to have shifted with the staff and service. It just doesn't feel as welcoming or consistent as it used to. I understand businesses evolve, but transparent communication and customer care should remain a priority. read more

My 2 doodles are patients here. Never ran into any issues. Very nice, friendly, accommodating and well priced.

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE TOUR PET HERE. THEY ARE CORRUPT LIARS WHO DO NOT CARE ABOUT ANIMALS AND SHOULD NOT BE PRACTICING. We lost our baby, Mr. boots about one month ago after a long fight with kidney failure. The next day, his brother Kibbs (my 9 year old's cat) began acting strange, and we soon learned that he had kidney stones/crystals. We spent a week in and out of our local vet having him catheterized and medicated, but he just kept blocking. Finally, after exhausting all funds, we tried one last time, took him home, then he was blocked up the next day and unable to urinate and was in a lot of pain. I decided to make the hard call and have him put down to and his suffering. It was a Sunday and our vet was closed, so I took him to the only vet that I found which was open on a Sunday, DRY CREEK VET. When the veterinarian came in, she asked me if I would be interested in signing him over to her and that she would perform the expensive surgery and afterward adopt him out. My son was distraught and I tried to explain that, though we wouldn't be taking him home, this would save his life. He was inconsolable. They veterinarian said that though it is not "customary protocol", she would perform the surgery and allow us to take him home in 2 to 3 weeks when he's all better. She said this multiple times and told me to call any time to check on him. We were thankful beyond words but just kept saying thank you over and over. It was honestly one of the best day of our lives. My parents had driven up and were waiting outside to be there for my son since we had expected a very different outcome. We excitedly told them about what had happened. My faith in humanity had been restored. It felt like all of the work I have done my whole life to help animals had come full circle and finally karma or something divine was paying us back. My son had even dontated $100 a week prior to a local animal rescue. He called the veterinarian his HERO and made plans to make her all kinds of kitty jewelry and other gifts. When I finally reached the vet office a few days later to check on him, I was met with a cold and rude receptionist who told me that his well-being was none of my business as I had signed him over. Every time I called, they would tell me that, and I would explain that the vet and I had an agreement. But they refused to give any information on him. I kept asking for the vet to call me back. After a week, she finally got on the phone. I could tell she was reluctant to tell me anything and I was trying to dig for answers as to his well being. It had been a week already and no surgery had been performed so I was concerned about him, especially since he is a very timid and scared cat and had been stuck in a cage for that long. She told me that she would call me back in a week but after reading many reviews of the place, I learned that this place doesn't call back. Another week passes. I'm still calling. They're still telling me that it's none of my business. I just keep asking for the vet to call me. After many sleepless nights worrying that I made the wrong decision and that he is still suffering in a cage, I tried one last plea to see if I could speak with the vet. They told me that the veterinarian said she had never said any of that and that he was not my concern. When they again declined, I told, them that they she broken the agreement and that I would be taking legal action. They told me to come pick him up. I rushed down there and was greeted with the rudest, most unprofessional and condescending receptionist. I recorded the exchange and am disgusted when I listen to it. I tried to kindly explain that they were left in the dark, and it wasn't their fault, but that the veterinarian had made an agreement to give the cat back after the surgery. She just talked over me, saying that she was there that day and that she knows what happened. She was not in the room. She also said that it doesn't matter what the veterinarian told us, I signed the paper. They even gave me a paper saying that they are divorcing me as a client since I am unable to, understand contracts! They handed over my cat, all drugged up, and lied, saying they were just about to start the surgery. Definitely a cover-up for just having him sedated since he was so scared. I've had him for four days now, and have him on around the clock medication and I'm fighting to save his life. We're working with his vet. What this vet did is beyond wrong and so unprofessional. They wouldn't even hand over records to our vet when they called. I don't know what their angle even was in the first place. I believe it was to use him as a guinea pig to practice a surgery that they wanted to practice. If they cared about an animal at all, they would have at least handed over records of what they had done or found in the two weeks that they had him. This place is unbelievable and should not be allowed to practice. read more

Dr. Lehil has taken good care of my pets for 3 years now. He is an honest vet, and will not try to nickel and dime you for every procedure possible. For example, my dog Bailey was having some claw issues. Dr. Lehil was honest and recommended me to a demonologist specialist. Instead of doing something he thought might help, he sent me to another vet who knew exactly what was going on. I appreciated his honesty and opinion. Anytime I have taken my dogs to Dr. Lehil, he and his staff have done a great job. Thank you Dry Creek Veterinarian! read more

Wow! After I received your response today it appears you're going to BLAME ME because after 18 DAYS your practice NEVER CALLED ME BACK. I followed every instruction to the letter. Your team was aware that I had an inflatable collar because I brought it in with Riley and they put it on him after the procedure. There was no mention from anyone about it not being the right kind and we never took it off for the entire 12-14 days - actually more like 3 weeks since he had to have the other procedure. When he started to swell I googled what to expect (as that WAS NOT described in any detail in the documentation provided) and on Monday the 12th when I read on your website that you had "emergency care 6 days a week" I expected to receive a call back. read more

I would have originally rated the clinic at 3 stars because they had such a mix of friendly and unfriendly staff. The last time I went in I didn't even so much as get a "goodbye", they just handed me my dog and started talking to the next person in the lobby. I'm a first-time dog owner and had no idea what the next steps to do with my puppy were. The one star is now owed to them having unexpectedly closed their doors (supposedly temporarily) without prior notice to customers. We have no access to records during this closure either. We tried, they failed, and we're moving on. read more

Nice people. Office kinda shabby but care was too the point. No bells or whistles but they got the job done

This is the absolute WORST vet clinic. DO NOT BRING YOUR ANIMAL HERE IF YOU LOVE YOUR PET! They never answer the phone. The techs are so unfriendly and there is zero communication. My dog had a surgery for an ear hematoma and they never called me to tell me how he was or if he was ready, we showed up to get our dog because they were closing. No pre op instructions, no post op instructions. NOTHING! and my dog looked like he had been through a meat grinder. Blood all over, still dripping, the inside of his cone was that of a murder scene. They closed without any notice, have now reopened, which is a shame, for public safety, they should have remained closed! I've since gone to a new vet, HEARTFELT VETERINARY, and they are amazing. My dog got a hematoma on his other ear and we just had surgery, what a difference! The Dr called me personally when she was done( which they should do) and I got both post and pre op instructions ( on printed paper) which should be standard care. My dog didn't have blood stained fur or dripping blood every where. I beg of you, even if this vet costs less, go elsewhere, you will regret putting your animals health in jeopardy by coming here. I am including photos of how my dog came home from Dry creek vs Heartfelt, and you be the judge! read more

If you care about your animals. Do not take them here. In simple terms, the vet didn't do anything to help properly diagnose the problem with my dogs.

While staff and the vet were friendly themselves, that doesn't take away the fact that they did not do enough in my situation. read more

I had to bring my cat here last minute to be euthanized as he became very I'll and could no longer walk. I was happy that they were open and willing to see him however, the vent and her assistant did not hear to be very empathetic or compassionate. They were very stoic. Didn't have much to say, didn't act very compassionate, it was almost as if we were bothering them perhaps. They were both just acting almost robotic I'm not even sure how to explain it, but just kind of strange and there's something very off about both of them. It was almost like a fake empathy. The vet wouldn't even examine him. She just said oh it could be this could be that, she didn't even really look him over. She said oh if you want to euthanize him then that's what we'll do. I was kind of looking for someone to give me like that go ahead like I understand this this needs to be done like her confirmation that I was doing the right thing with a man a lot but it's it was like because she wanted money or somethings so therefore she wasn't gonna say anything, unless I paid her, she even give me her professional opinion even she wouldn't even do that, and again her and her assistant were acting very strange the whole time when they put the needle in his arm to deliver the medicine to put him to sleep they raft it for like a really long time which I I thought was odd and unnecessary since he was being euthanized it just made him wear uncomfortable And they really didn't even give him a chance like to make sure that he was actually asleep and she said some thing I can't remember what it was but something about the second medication that stops the heart she was like oh yeah, sometimes they can feel it like it didn't make me feel very good like she wasn't putting my mind at ease just the whole situation was awful because I when I would've brought him to our normal vet but they weren't open and I didn't want my cat to suffer I felt we were leaving him there with him that night. I asked where they kept the animals that were euthanized in. It almost feels like he was making up some thing just to make me feel better. Apparently the Cremators of day use I didn't want to research on them, and they turned out to be very compassionate, very professional And I would trust them with my pets, but I do wonder if my actual pet even got to them I wonder if all the money that I paid to have a separate cremation of my cat I wonder if that's really even my cat that they cremated. When I came to pick up my pets ashes, the woman that greeting he was very nice And compassionate but when I find that what was odd is that when I got there I explicitly asked them if they were open and then I was gonna drive all the way out there to go get it and I want to make sure that they were going to stay open when I got there. It said closed there's people in there, so thankfully I was able to go in and get my cats ashes but When I was reading their reviews here a lot of people were saying that they constantly close down out of nowhere they just close down and they don't give any warning to anybody and people drive all the way out there for nothing much. I will definitely find a no answer for that reason online when I would never go back because I would always wonder if they were gonna be open or just close out of nowhere I think the place only has one bed and unfortunately I don't think that that is very reliable. I don't think she's very compassionate either. She seems more annoying than anything else so now I would not recommend this ad and I would never take my animals there ever again. read more
