As a long time loyal customer of Mission Animal Hospital from the their first year of operation in…read moreSan Luis Obispo it pains me to write this review especially given the kindness of the staff. They use to be a 5 star operation, and very fair in what they charged too. But somewhere along the way greed has taken oven. Our last serval visits we have left feeling we under cared for especially given the price we were charged. A couple of examples, how does a fairly straightforward pet emergency cost significantly more for a office visit that the day and a half stay the Ciera Alto Emergency Hospital that provided not just everything that was done at Mission but more f it including significant time with the night vet and frequent status updates. Cierra Alto did all the lab work again plus more, found medical issue missed by Mission and we left with multiple prescription filled including duplicate 1 prescription also filled at Mission. The shocking part was Cierra charged LESS THAN MISSION, and that included ALL prescriptions and the nighttime emergency vet procedures and time. The total cost at Cierra Alto was about $150 LESS than the just the OFFICE VISIT w/labs and 1 Rx at MISSION. Cierra Alto did significantly more, including duplicating everything Mission had done. To add to insult of high cost at Mission the needed Rx refills filled at Mission simply is highway robbery, I expect a vet office to charge more, even a minimum charge per Rx filled, but 2 Rx filled that together would cost $10 - $20 total for single fill half if that if schedule for auto refills should cost about 15x more than retail and 20-30x wholesale because they were filled at the vets office. No wonder the big beautiful office has been empty the last 2 times I have been there, I don't think I'm the only feeling ripped off for service or items received. I'm now looking for a new vet office. Lovely friendly service is great, but I'm not made of money and am not a fan of being over charged for service or products! An AI summary after inputing my prescription fill charges for each prescription and additional "mandated" fee charge too (it was not mandated, just clinic imposed fee made to look like mandated) is actually spot on on the pricing: "...without active in-clinic nursing care--the price you were charge is on the absolute highest end of veterinary markups". "Long term charge from veterinarian clinic is not sustainable for managing your pets condition" Wow, couldn't say it better. Sorry mission, your owners greed is forcing me leave. I love the care and kindness of the staff, but overall the quality of care is slipping and cost are skyrocketing. When it is cheaper to go to the 24 hr emergency pet hospital than to go to your vet, your vet is simply overcharging. Shame on the owners of Mission, I have a hard time think Dr Kevin can still ge the owner given recent care and charges, it is nit how he started the practice and developed its loyalty of patients/pet owners.

The consultation went really well and I appreciate how friendly the staff is and Dr. Cherry's support in walking me through the assessments being conducted, what they meant, and things I could do at home for Nacho. Additionally, they were incredibly careful with Nacho and gave him tons of treats to help him sit for the assessment. Within a day or so I got a follow up with at-home exercises along with a plan for physical therapy which included photobiomodulation (laser therapy) and water treadmill. We came back for Nachos first therapy session with Gianna and he was happily sitting for the laser therapy with his goggles because he got plenty of frozen treats to steal his attention. He had some difficulty learning to walk in the underwater treadmill which is normal, and I appreciated being able to watch and help as needed. They also were able to accommodate us leaving through a separate exit due to his reactivity. The therapies are a little expensive, (which is normal for the area) but definitely worth the long term benefits in Nacho's quality of life. I would definitely recommend Animal Care Clinic!

What I thought would be a routine checkup, turned into an emergency situation. It was urgent, that I find a surgery center and transfer my dogs information.

The facilties AC was out and they were unable to perform surgery. Luckily with the help of the new facility in SB, we were able to get my dog into surgery in LA and my dog is now okay (after 5 days in the hospital and an 8hr surgery). However, I will not forget I nearly lost my dog to the negligence of this facility. This is not the first time they have failed to send my dogs information to another facility. I think this vet is great for in office service, but I would not rely on them when transferring information. I called 3 times throughtout this experience to ensure the proper information was transferred and it was not. I received my dogs medical records two days after i had brought her to the vet.

I made sure to confirm that you. This woman isn't helpful. Is rude. And condescending. She tried to lie and say she didn't say that also. And when I repeated to her what she said word for word, she went well you still have to pay or he's not getting his 2nd round of shots and I'm going to have to notify the city that he didn't finish his rabies vaccine. Seriously, get a better receptionist.

He has never tried to upsell us to unnecessary procedures yet always has solutions and advice that have been sound. Another Plus it is a lovely setting to go to and never a parking hassle. I would put Edna Valley Vet Clinic operation as probably the best we have ever taken out Dog to and we recommend them highly.
