Dr. Gonda was so kind and thorough and even brought me into the ultrasound room to show me live on the imaging ultrasound machine what he sees and what is going on and put together a plan of action. I feel a lot better after my visit here and in very glad to have my Walter in the care of Dr Gonda. Staff is super kind as well!

    I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Arroyo Vista Veterinary Hospital in Moorpark. I live in…read moreSimi Valley, and when my cat was bitten by a rattlesnake, none of the local veterinary hospitals had the antivenom he urgently needed. The closest options were Woodland Hills or Santa Clarita. I called VEG ER for Pets in Stevenson Ranch, and even though they had the medicine, both the doctor and staff refused to give me even a ballpark estimate of the cost. Because of that, I chose not to go there and I wouldn't recommend them, not happy of their response. I brought my cat--who was in severe pain--to Dr. Gooda at Arroyo Vista, and the experience was completely different. He explained the procedure, the cost, and what to expect. The staff understood my fear and stress, and they treated my cat with genuine care and compassion. My cat was a rescue I found at 3 months old, and he's now 3 years old and part of my family. Arroyo Vista treated him like family too. I now have a new veterinarian for my cat and my two dogs. They care more about the animals than about charging high fees, and I am deeply grateful for everything they did. I highly recommend Arroyo Vista Veterinary Hospital -- they are an AMAZING team. You could not ask for more. Thank you Arroyo Vista.

This was the most empathetic veterinary group I've ever had the pleasure of going to. We had to assess our Charlie for quality of life and Dr. Slaton was very sensitive and caring and confirmed our decision to make a difficult choice. In addition, he and his staff made our decision easier. The things that they did were very loving including allowing us time with Charlie and allowing him to have a Hersheys kiss before he passed. We spent some time after he passed and left after they had taken Charlie away. In the days that followed we received flowers and a sympathy card from their office. When we picked up Charlie's remains they were presented in a beautiful box along with a lovely paw print. Slaton veterinary made a very difficult time a thoughtful and caring time. I highly recommend their services.

    I am disappointed by this response because it does not address the substance of my review and…read moreinstead seems to frame my concerns as the understandable distress of someone whose dog is facing serious medical problems. That is not what this is about. I have three Golden Retrievers and have had many dogs over the years. I understand that dogs age, become ill, and develop serious medical problems. That is a painful but inevitable part of loving them. I do not blame a veterinarian because my dog is sick. My concern is the care Emma received when I brought her in because she was sick and in pain. I brought her in twice for an unexplained limp and expressed that I believed something was wrong. No X-rays were taken. Imaging performed elsewhere later showed severe destruction of the ulna near her elbow and significant risk of fracture. I also raised concerns about persistent skin inflammation, recurring ear problems, and irritation around her mouth. These issues improved rapidly after she received different treatment from another veterinarian. These are specific concerns about clinical decisions, not expressions of sadness about having an older dog. Saying that you understand how upsetting it is when a beloved companion has serious medical issues does not address them. I also find it difficult to reconcile the statement that the practice would "welcome the opportunity to discuss" my concerns directly with the fact that no one contacted me after my review was posted. Weeks passed, and this public response was the first outreach I received. If anything in my review is factually inaccurate, please identify it. I would also welcome an explanation of how the specific care decisions I described were consistent with the "thoughtful, evidence-based medicine" referenced in your response. Emma being sick is not the complaint. The complaint is what happened when I repeatedly brought a sick and painful dog to this practice for help. Go to Village Veterinary Hospital Dr. Innes is incredible. It's on Hampshire in Westlake Village. Trust me. You're welcome.

    Dr.Siegal and his entire team are some of the most caring, efficient, safe and dependable people…read morewe've ever met. They are remarkable communicators, and I love that they do not try to up sell you. They respect your boundaries and financial health, they never try to push or guilt trip you. Best of all, they do not tell you wildly outrageous ideas on what might be the cause of x, y, z. Every time we have met with Dr. Seigal whether it is in person or over the phone, we've always felt he was such a generous, gracious person. We never felt rushed. When I ask his staff a question and they don't know the answer, they are always honest and polite and will tell you they don't know and will proceed to place you on a brief hold so they can get the correct information. The staff has a good attitude and assume that you are a caring owner. When Dr. Siegal says he'll call you or do anything, he always holds his word and he even called us when he was out of town. The facility is extremely clean, the cleanest vet I've ever been to. There are so many reasons why you should consider Dr. Siegal and his team, these are just a few. Plenty of parking in their private shared lot and street parking. Very cute stores, restaurants, and fitness yoga studios nearby so if you are coming from further away and need to leave your pet for a few hours you can totally patronize some of the other local businesses. Overall 10/10 experience. I'm glad we took a chance on this vet. To be fair we had exhausted many of the other highly rated vets in the San Fernando valley area and none of them cut it. Are you paying a little more to see the doctor here and get the tests and other services? Yes, probably a little more. However, for me personally, it's completely justified because of the integrity and seamless experiences we've had. Lastly, every single time we have gone in for our appointment, we haven't had to wait longer than 5 minutes. Also they are always giving you a warm greeting which I literally cannot say about any of the other vets. Last little detail, but really there's no detail too small, I have not seen any of the staff doom scroll or look checked out. When they are on the clock, they appear to be working and they seem dedicated. Little things like that have a major impact on professionalism and trust. If I see anyone on the clock doom scrolling or just super engaged on their cell phone it is 100% a red flag and a sign that they don't care, aka my sign to leave a business and not return. I want to spend my hard earned money on places that are invested and care. Dr. Siegal and his staff seem happy and I believe a happy staff is a more efficient staff. It is a safe space, you can openly share your concerns, wants and needs- they are listening with open hearts and they genuinely care. Sadly I've been to probably more than eight different vets and none of them have even come close to Dr. Siegal. Because of those awful experiences, I was starting to lose hope. But I knew from our first phone call with Dr. Siegal's office, when I was literally picking their brain and asking 20+ questions and complaining about past experiences, I knew they were the one because they never made me feel rushed, I never felt judged, I never felt unappreciated and I felt they were truly listening and caring. Anyways, I'm just extremely grateful for Dr.Siegal and his staff.

Jessica has such a warm, bubbly personality and a way of making both pets and their owners feel comfortable the moment they walk in. She is kind, patient, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. Dr. Vigue is, without a doubt, the best veterinarian I've ever met. My dog adores her, and I trust her completely with the care of my pets. She is knowledgeable, compassionate, honest, and always takes the time to make sure concerns are addressed. What really stands out about Mountain View Pet Hospital is how much everyone genuinely cares about the animals they treat. You can feel it from the moment you walk through the door. The prices are fair, the recommendations are honest, and the entire staff goes above and beyond to provide outstanding care. I highly recommend them.

    I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about this veterinary office and their entire staff…read more From the moment you walk in, they make you feel like your pets are family to them, not just another appointment on the schedule. We truly love Dr. Vigue! We've also seen Dr. Jonah who is also very informative, compassionate and thorough. They take incredible care of my two dachshunds, Vinnie and Bruno, and consistently go above and beyond every single time we visit. I recently had both of my dogs neutered there, and the level of care, compassion, and attentiveness they showed throughout the entire process meant the world to me. Kelsey in particular was absolutely amazing. As a very protective dog mom, I was understandably nervous, and I probably called far more than most people would for updates. Kelsey was so patient, kind, and understanding the entire time. She reassured me, kept me informed, and never once made me feel like I was bothering them. That level of patience and genuine compassion is something you don't come across everywhere. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a veterinary team that truly treats your pets like family.

    Townsgate Pet Hospital - Pretzel

    I wish I could give this business zero stars…read more My experience with Dr. Jamshid Kiumarsi at Townsgate Pet Hospital was extremely disappointing. I took my 15-year, 8-month-old dog "Champ" to the clinic for a rabies antibody (titer) test required for international travel. Dr. Kiumarsi knew my dog's age and medical history, yet no one explained that, because of his advanced age, there was a possibility his antibody level might be too low to pass the test or discussed giving him a rabies booster before performing the expensive titer test. I paid nearly $600 for the test, and the result came back negative. Only afterward was I told to bring my dog back for a rabies booster, wait another month, and then pay for a second titer test. This delayed my travel plans to Turkey by almost four weeks and increased my expenses. My frustration is not that the test was negative--it is that I was never informed beforehand about the risk of a failed result or the option of administering a booster first. Had I been given that information, I could have made an informed decision and potentially avoided unnecessary cost and delay. I expected honest guidance and recommendations that considered both my dog's wellbeing and my time and financial investment. Unfortunately, that was not my experience at Townsgate Pet Hospital.

    My dog and I came here the other day and got treated pretty easily by Dr. K and his team. We made…read morean appointment and came in with our paperwork already filled out online. I had to fill out some additional paperwork after arriving and then waited for a room. They are a smaller pet hospital, so it was pretty low and under-staffed. This means we waited about another 20 minutes to be seen by the doctor, which can be difficult if your pet is impatient and/ or in pain. Dr. K was really nice, though, and addressed our issue and any concerns, giving us an expectant time frame for recovery and what to see over the next couple of weeks. It took about 10 minutes or so to check out due to the amount of people there, which were only a few, and only one receptionist. With that in mind, they were fast for a smaller team, so I would just have a little more patience coming here; but then again, a lot of vets and pet hospitals have long wait times. The prices weren't bad and their exam fee was around $70 for the doctor to diagnose, which is pricy, but pretty average pricing in Westlake Village. The medicine was expensive (as always) BUT I didn't break the bank - which was a nice change. I will most likely be coming back here with my pup the next time we need something!
