    Dr. Kaspari is truly the best. I am a high anxiety high stressed dog mom when it comes to anything medical related for my chihuahua. She is able to handle my feisty girl easily. Dr. Kaspari is reassuring and does her job so well. I feel comfortable coming to this establishment and have so much trust in Dr. Kaspari. I took my 10 year old chihuahua for dental cleaning for the first time not knowing what to expect and she got the job done so quick and easy. The Dr. called as soon as she was done with the procedure to reassure me everything went great. I'm so grateful for this local pet hospital. Thank you Dr. Kaspari and staff, for keeping my mind at ease and keeping my pup healthy.

    This review is long overdue. I brought my pup here after he ate a sock. He was I think on the verge of by the time we figured out what was happening. We went to several other place that turned us away or tried to price gouge us knowing what the situation was. As a last resort we called Hillcrest, and they opened the clinic for us at a time when they would have otherwise been closed. They successfully did the procedure and the amount charged was very fair and I paid with a smile. The whole staff here is VERY warm and inviting. You can tell they ACTUALLY care about animals. The other places we checked out the staff were very cold and uncaring and you could tell it was all about money for them. In any case, this place is my go to vet now and I wouldn't take my pup anywhere else.

    Another great visit with Dr Kaspari. She is genuinely caring. This practice is nothing like visiting a used car lot. No upselling or unnecessary items suggested. They're such a gem to find. The doctor knows her stuff and the treatment is excellent. Highly recommend.

    Thank you Dr. Kaspari for helping Charlotte!

    Not only did Hillcrest Pet Hospital provide excellent care when I came in, but they even provide, wonderfully thoughtful aftercare.

First, I would like to send my deepest condolences to his family, staff, and clients. They probably thought I was crazy because the moment I asked about him, tears started forming, and I had to sit down before I completely ugly cried. Dr. Tang was a gentle yet strong man. He low-key scared me a little, but he was always so gentle and loving with my fur babies. He listened to my concerns, provided a plan of action, and never rushed to medication unless it was truly necessary. He was reasonable, compassionate, and genuinely cared. I am going to truly miss him. Luna has always been scared of the vet and groomer, it's just not her thing. Today was no different. We were greeted by the front desk staff, who were as kind and welcoming as always. We then made our way to the exam room, where the veterinary technician asked several questions, checked Luna's weight, and took her temperature. Next, we met with Dr. Moore. She was patient, gentle, and recognized that Luna was having a difficult time relaxing. She took her time with her, and before long, Luna warmed up to her. I'm happy to report that Luna is healthy, received her rabies shot, and we were never pressured into purchasing services or treatments she didn't need. It's sad to see some people come on here and tarnish this establishment and its staff. Dr. Tang set a high standard of care, and I believe he would be proud to know those standards continue today. Thank you, Dr. Moore and staff, for taking such wonderful care of Luna and for continuing the compassionate legacy that Dr. Tang built.

I bought a puppy last year, a sweet 3 months old Biewer Yorkshire Terrier. When I took my puppy for the third DA2PP at three months old, a replacement vet. Insisted that I will need to have total four DA2PP for my dog. December 9th for the third vaccine and December 26 for the forth vaccine. When I took my puppy there on December 26, they gave my dog DAPP vaccine, Rabbits vaccine, and oral Bordetella. There was no advanced notice or approval on both Rabbits vaccine and oral Bordetella/ there is one treatment on December 9th already. My puppy was 11 weeks old and 3.6 lb on Decamber 26. I was very stressed on more than one vaccine in one visit on a such young puppy under 4 lb and there was no owner approval. When I checked out my dog, I raised my concern and disappointed. All I got was " our tech has right to decide what your dog needs." My puppy came home can't move nor eat/drink for hours. I hold her the whole night and had a very hard time worrying if she would had bad outcomes. She was trained properly after two weeks in my house, but started bad behavior issues after December 26 vaccine trauma for three months until now. I don't think that I will bring her back to Best Care Pet hospital any more. It is sad, I worked with Dr. Tang for over 30 years and in the same location with same staffs since Dr. Tang moved to this location. I can't trust this clinic for my dogs any more.

I moved back to LA around 3 ish years ago and have since been looking for a vet where I feel comfortable, nothing is rushed and prices are VERY reasonable compared to other places I've been to. I even was able to get somewhat of a last minute appointment with them and they were so great about calling to get me an even earlier time. I've had my fair share of visits with the vet because anytime somethings wrong with my dog, I try and get it checked out right away. The people here are very kind, thorough, they make sure to ask all the questions and also answer all the ones I have. Again, prices are super reasonable too especially with some others in the area I've tried out. If you're in the La Crescenta/ La Canada area, I HIGHLY recommend this place. Parking is also very convenient!

I brought my dog in for her annual check up and she had some crusting around her lip so I asked the vet tech to have the doctor take a look. When Dr. Youn came out, he casually mentioned that he had shaved her entire chin to clean the area. I did not consent to anything beyond a basic look. Instead, Dr. Youn decided on his own to shave off my dog's entire chin with ZERO communication and ZERO explanation beforehand. I was never asked for permission and I wasn't informed this would happen before it was done. I only found out after the fact, when he strolled in like it was no big deal. No heads up. No "can I do this." Just done. That is not how veterinary care is supposed to work. Vets are supposed to inform and get consent from owners before altering their pet in any way, this is basic professional practice, not an inconvenience to skip because it seemed minor to him.

    DO NOT BRING YOUR BELOVED PET HERE…read more I have never heard my dog scream in fear the way she did at this clinic. We brought her in for routine vaccinations, and instead of administering the shots with us present, they dragged her into a separate room. Within moments, we could hear her screaming, crying, and yelping in absolute panic. The sounds coming from that room were horrifying. My partner and I were sitting there in shock, genuinely terrified about what was happening to our dog. My partner was able to see through a window that multiple staff members were physically restraining her. She is a small dog, and I still cannot understand why the measure they took was needing several people forcibly holding her down or why the procedure continued while she was in such extreme distress. This wasn't a brief reaction--it went on for several minutes while she screamed. We have had dogs our entire lives. This was not normal. We have taken her to other veterinarians for vaccinations before and never once experienced anything remotely close to this. She has always done fine with shots. We have never heard her make sounds like that before. It was genuinely traumatic to witness, and I can only imagine how traumatic it was for her to experience. What made it even worse was the complete lack of concern afterward. There was no meaningful acknowledgment of how distressed she had been, no explanation that made the experience feel justified, and no indication that anyone cared about the emotional well-being of our pet. To add insult to injury, this clinic is incredibly expensive. For the prices they charge, I expected compassionate care, attentive staff, and a veterinarian who genuinely cared about the animals being treated. Instead, we left feeling like our dog was treated as a problem to be restrained rather than a living creature deserving patience and care. This experience completely destroyed our trust in this clinic. We will never bring our dog back, and I would strongly encourage other pet owners to think carefully before entrusting their animals to this practice.

Dr. Kevin is a calming, reassuring presence, even via text. His compassion for these animals and their grieving owners is evident and genuine. He explained every step of the procedure to us, even details we requested, and tactfully addressed the possible outcomes of both the sedation and euthanasia. Even typing the word is difficult. I appreciated his further reassurance that it was the correct decision and at the right time when he saw the gravity of Xena's condition; I had no doubts, but it was still a balm to my heart to hear it from a professional. I was able to pet her throughout the entire procedure and up until the very last moment we assisted her onto the stretcher. I am so grateful I could spend those crucial final moments comforting her. We preferred communal cremation, so the rates were within the ballpark of other at-home services I had consulted with. However the stellar attentiveness, gentleness, and empathy that Dr. Kevin provided, in addition to his same-day availability on such short notice and all of the glowing reviews here, had my heart set on him from the beginning. Another reason we opted for him over other providers is because he is the one performing the procedure, so we knew what--and who--to expect. It felt much more intimate and personal than a service sending "someone" out. I believe this high caliber of care is how Dr. Kevin so seamlessly blends into the moment: he is another source of the palpable love resonating during such an intense, difficult experience. His demeanor was serene and respectful, and he allowed us plenty of physical and emotional space. Even as he was working, his being there felt as natural as any of my family members. Xena had a peaceful passing in her favorite sunny spot in the flowers, surrounded by her loving family at home. It was the ideal resolution for a harrowing situation, and Dr. Kevin made it possible. I cannot thank or recommend him enough.
