First let me say that I sought out AVMC because our vet had come to this practice and we had to…read morefollow him. I couldn't imagine not seeing him for our babies care. Dr Linville is THE BEST . I have been taking my fur babies to see him since I was a teen. He is so smart and so amazing with the fur babies. He really knows his stuff and is caring and compassionate. Knowledgable and listens to concerns and questions. He is a very sweet man and it's obvious he is passionate about what he does . He extended our pups life by 6 months when we thought we were at the end. He is AMAZING. The staff here is really sweet and caring as well. Recommend AVCM and Dr Linville

If you like the person on the phone talking over you, repeatedly and lengthily, sure go here…read more If you like your request for a prescription refill being ignored all day, like over 8 hours, until you simply show up and demand it, sure, go here. If you like them NOT telling you that a prescription is made with milk powder and you don't have to force a capsule down a stressed-out cat's throat (does this sound smart to you?) sure, go here. I told that guy on the phone that this was customer disservice and he kept on talking over me until I fired them but I doubt he heard me because he just kept on talking over me. If that sounds like your kind of place, sure go here.

Nai at the front desk went above and beyond to accommodate us despite being fully booked. She…read moremanaged to squeeze us in an appointment that was cancelled. She was very kind and professional. After that our cat (Gojo) was taken care by Dr.Ada Lee who was also very understanding and gentle. She made sure to provide Gojo the proper care and treatment that he needed while breaking down the cost of the treatment with total transparency and only recommended what was necessary for that exact treatment without pushing any other unnecessary costs. Gojo had abscess treatment. Even right after he got his treatment and his fur shaved off on the infected area, he was very calm which means he was handled with care. In just one week we are seeing good results of him feeling better and his fur is growing back normally. Can't describe enough how grateful we are for VCA for helping Gojo cure out of his pain. All the other staffs were friendly and amazing as well. Highly recommend this place as it puts our mind at ease at how they really take good care of our fur babies as well as us. Will be looking forward to our next visit. :)

I have two 11-year-old chihuahuas, and one of them has had many health issues over the years. When I lived in Oakland, I took my dogs to Grand Lake Vet and when i moved to Richmond I would still make the trip to Oakland because it was all I knew. I l tried another place in El Cerrito but unfortunately had a terrible experience, so I kept making the drive. Recently, I was highly recommended Pinole Vet Hospital, and I'm so glad I decided to check them out. My dog had been itching excessively, so I booked an appointment online -- which was super quick and easy. Check-in was smooth, and the entire staff was so kind and welcoming. From the front desk to the vet tech and the doctor, everyone was wonderful. They genuinely seem to care about their patients, and that means everything. I'm beyond happy to have found our new vet closer to home. Highly recommend!

The staff is incredibly caring and truly takes the time to make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable. What really stands out is the level of compassion and dedication they show. I've also volunteered here, and seeing firsthand how gently and attentively they care for every animal only confirmed how special this place is. They go above and beyond, not just in medical care but in how they treat people, too. Their services are affordable and provide tremendous value, especially considering the quality of care you receive. It's rare to find a clinic that combines professionalism, heart, and accessibility so well. I highly recommend Animal Fix Clinic -- and if you're able to, consider donating to support the amazing work they do for our community's animals.

I recently put down my dog so I'm here to write about my experience…read more The cost was $587 with a visit cost, cremation and urn included. Cheapest around this area. The establishment was clean and welcoming. The receptionist was professional. The exam was quick. They make you leave the room to pay the invoice while they prep the pet. They dont have laminated paper to show you the urns available....they make you go behind the desk and look at their screen and chose while there are people with their pets waiting.... awkward. Then, instead of taking you to a different area away from people and thier pets... they make you sit with them. My emotions seeing pets and owners leave together made me so sad and holding on to tears was so hard. They let you have as much alone time with your pet before they put them down. The process was fast but the vet was kind and nice with his words. They offered for me to stay for a while after. I had to leave the room, a crying mess... crossing all the people in the receptionist area to leave. My dog came back a week later. I guess you get what you pay for?

Like a lot of…read moreother cat owners know, it can be stressful finding a vet that can give as good care to cats as they often do for dogs. I came here on a recommendation from my usual vet who were out of availability and boy am I glad. Dr. K was wonderful, empathetic, sweet, and very detailed in her care of my cat. She understood how to approach to my little scaredy cat and did what she could to avoid any further stress. She answered my questions, provided me with important information, and we were on our way! I also want to say thanks to the front office and the vet techs. The place seemed very busy and it seemed they were all working everywhere all at once and even then they were prompt and polite. Although I would happily pay anything to make sure my cat is okay, I can't deny I was thinking about what it would cost since it's an urgent care vet, but I found the price fair and, at least for me, affordable. I would recommend anyone who is looking up the reviews to feel ease when considering Urgent Pet.

I figured out how to use their hard to read fluids because I needed to save the money. But now ....true to form...they are rude upon rude. Truly obnoxious management. So sorry I have spent hundreds in this store. Avoid it. And go to a real vet for your shots and medical advice. Not this store.
