Wasn't what I expected at all. My dogs had surgery before and came out sick and stoned for days because of the anesthesia. That's why I procrastinated on having her spayed. Knew I had to have it done and was freaked out the whole time she was in there and expecting the worst. They came out with her and she was great!! Got her home and she was fine just a little tired. Couldn't even really see the incision. It's been three weeks and she's jamming around and feeling great. LOVE THIS PLACE!! Can't thank you enough!! read more

There is always an appointment available fairly soon whether is a spay/neuter or clinic visit. The process to book online is easy and quick, they send you confirmation and instructions right away as well as reminder emails. To check in, you scan a qr code when you get there and they will text you when your turn is up. Check in is super quick and easy, staff is efficient and friendly. I got my 6 month old kitten in on a Tuesday morning, the parking lot was full so I had to hang out and wait a bit for a spot to open, but she me people just parked wherever they could, at the red fire lane, blocking other cars etc. The fairly small parking lot is probably the biggest challenge. I got a text my kitten was ready for pick up, it took about 15 minutes from when I got there to pulling out of the parking lot. Baby boy did great, staff said he was a good boy and he didn't seem to have any pain after the procedure either, so the pain meds they give work well. I got extra pain meds for next day but we didn't even need it. I will be taking other pets here for spay/neuter in the future, because of the great pricing and wonderful experience. read more

Hope Animal Foundation - Handsome boy getting neutered today - Veterinarians Near Me - Fresno, California

I regret taking my dog to this place I took her to get her vaccines and ever since that day my dog has been very traumatized I don't know if they injected her roughly or if she got scared.... I don't know, but when I would leave her home alone because I was going to work she would always be very calm and just fall asleep now she's very scared of everything she shakes and runs around and doesn't stop shaking keep whining, and crying she seems to be very scared of everything .... she seems to be traumatized. I don't know if put her vaccines too rough to the point that they scared her ??.......... it's been about 2 weeks and she hardly wants to eat she just wants to lay in the corner and seems to be very scared .... This is not the first time she gets vaccines so I don't know if they grabbed her ugly and put the vaccine on her? I'm not sure. I just know she's very traumatized she would not act this way at all read more

The scheduled drop off times are not followed for dogs and cats. Especially during a voucher for spay and neuter and this time for cats. Very unorganized management without attention to the details. Parking lot chaos and when I got yelled at by one of their patrons for crossing the parking painted line your management told me to park on the street. Why don't you have your staff park on the street instead.!! Plus it says "no stopping on the signage on the street" posted all sing your curbs. Now besides treating me without professionalism you tell me to park on the street. Really unprofessional and very unorganized and the management doesn't admit mistakes during the drop off communication. read more

My kitty was treated with kindness. The noise and atmosphere was calm, clean ,& quiet. The people are helpful and respectful of my nerves about leaving my kitty . I was not able to get a coupon so I paid $116 for my male cat to be neutered and a shot of the feline leukemia, & a shot of distemper. I would've liked to see the back area and the surgical area, but I didn't ask. I am Impressed by the Management of this organization. They have a great system going and I can see it. I appreciate how they run this organization. My cat is doing great. I did pay the five dollars for the pain shot that last three days. I give a glowing rating. I appreciate hope animal foundation, and for taking good care of my kitty. read more

Such a smooth process of getting my cat her vaccinations. You can scan the QR code to sign in and wait tell it's your fur baby's turn. You do not get to go to the back. You just hand over your pet and boom less then 5 minutes they are back! The Veterinary Tech was so kind and gentle with baby. She is an anxious girl but they said she was so good. Highly recommend coming here for some low cost vaccines. read more

After waiting nearly 20 minutes past my scheduled appointment time, I approached the front desk to inquire about the delay. The staff member I spoke with was dismissive and rude, stating she had "no idea" how much longer I would need to wait and that I was simply waiting for a technician with one other person ahead of me. I returned to my seat and waited an additional 10 minutes, during which no one was called back. At that point, I decided I could no longer wait and requested a refund of my deposit. The staff member informed me that cancellations require 48 hours' notice but added that, "as a courtesy," she could "probably" issue a refund. I found this response ironic, as it felt anything but courteous given that I had already waited more than 30 minutes past my appointment time. What I find most frustrating is the inconsistency in expectations: clients are required to arrive early or on time, with the risk of having their appointments canceled and deposits forfeited if they are late, yet the practice does not extend the same respect for clients' time. To wait for over 30 minutes without explanation or apology is unacceptable. When I asked to speak with a manager, the staff member became noticeably snippy and refused to get one. After assisting a few more customers, she went to the back and returned with a Post-it note containing an email address, claiming the manager was out of the office. This felt disingenuous, as she had initially indicated she would retrieve someone for me to speak with. I have always valued the care my pets have received at your practice, which is why today's experience was so disappointing. The lack of professionalism, courtesy, and respect for my time has shaken my trust in your establishment read more

They did a real good job with both of my cats! They're all healed now and back to their normal little selves.

I took my cat, Zoe to the wellness building for a dental exam. Everyone was very nice from the time I walked in the door to the time I left. I love the way my kitty was treated. They addressed any questions or concerns that I had. Not once did I feel rushed. Dr. Salehi was wonderful! read more

I recommend this place so much! Affordable with exam fees to be $35 and work to be affordable range. I am sad you can't call them for immediate answers for the wellness center, but they respond fast on text and email! The nurse and doctor (I will leave out names for confidentiality) were superb. I felt so reassured and so happy that he is being seen by them. Their demeanor is pleasant and so gentle that my naughty cat behaved! They handled him with care and ensured to respect his space and boundaries. They were absolutely kind and easy to talk to as they provided their diagnosis and findings. They also made sure to play the TV and find ways to bring him comfort. You can really tell that they love animals, and it warms my heart that my cat was in their care. I was glad to bring him here with great fast service and wonderful staff. I was also late, too, by 7 minutes and more with paperwork, but they were accommodating and so kind I was already stressed with my cat anxiety and having to make pitstops for him driving there. I was worried they would turn me away or cold in my delay, but they were so kind and so welcoming. WARNING: I do admit it is a little hard to make appointments with bookings being booked so fast. I recommend checking every day and near the end of the week. The first time here, I got lost and realized that the spay/neuter building is different from wellness. Overall, this is a fine establishment and a wonderful place for pets and pet parents. read more

I want to issue a serious warning to anyone considering taking their pet to H.O.P.E. Animal Foundation in Fresno. Please RECONSIDER--your pet's life could be at risk due to the reckless and negligent care provided at this facility. After relocating to the area, I was searching for a new vet for my senior dog. Most highly rated clinics were not accepting new patients, so I gave H.O.P.E. a try. My dog had recently begun drinking and urinating excessively and had developed a light cough, so I brought him in for a checkup. We were seen by Dr. Angelica Reyes, who ordered bloodwork and other tests. The next day, she called to tell me the results were mostly normal except for elevated liver enzymes, and that based on symptoms, my dog was likely showing signs of Cushing's disease. She prescribed Temaril-P, instructing me to give him two pills daily for four days, then as needed. Trusting her professional judgment, I gave my dog the medication as directed. What I didn't know--because no one explained it--is that Temaril-P contains prednisolone, a corticosteroid that is strongly contraindicated in animals suspected of having Cushing's disease. Giving this to a dog with Cushing's can be life-threatening, as the disease is caused by excessive corticosteroid production to begin with. Adding more can seriously worsen the condition. And to make matters worse, abruptly stopping steroids like prednisolone can also be fatal, as it may cause an adrenal crisis--yet no tapering instructions were provided at all. Shortly after beginning the medication, my dog's condition took a sharp turn for the worse. He became severely lethargic, disoriented, and almost completely unresponsive. He would have died within days if not for my daughter--who is a Medical Doctor--visiting and immediately checking the prescription. She was horrified to discover what he had been given and the lack of any tapering plan. She drove to H.O.P.E. Animal Foundation immediately to demand answers. Dr. Reyes refused to speak with her and hid in the back while a technician attempted to downplay my daughter's concerns and told her not to "look up medications online." Only after my daughter stated she was a physician did the technician begin going back and forth to relay messages. Still, Dr. Reyes never came out, never called me, and no one followed up. There was no apology, no acknowledgment of what could have happened, and no accountability for what nearly did. We will never return to H.O.P.E. Animal Foundation. My dog's life was put in serious danger by a veterinarian who either lacked basic knowledge or failed to act responsibly. He would have died without my daughter's intervention. I strongly caution every pet owner in the area: DO NOT TAKE YOUR ANIMALS HERE. read more

Canceled my appointment last minute without cause. They don't answer the phone; you get a recording that you're calling off hours when it's during hours.

Beware of this clinic! I am updating my review to make it clear that our dog Blanket passed away due to this clinic's negligence, and now they are trying to shift the blame onto us. Despite completing all the tests they recommended and following their treatment plan, Blanket's health rapidly declined, and we were given conflicting and incomplete information that led to her death. When we first brought Blanket in, they informed us that her bloodwork was "abnormal" but they didn't know why. Concerned for her health, we decided to go ahead with all the tests they recommended, even though we initially only planned to do a few. Despite completing all of the tests they suggested, they still told us that Blanket was "fine." Tragically, just four days later, Blanket passed away. In their response, the clinic now claims that further diagnostics were necessary but not pursued due to financial constraints. This is completely false. We paid for all the tests they recommended during the visit, and at no point did they mention the need for additional tests or treatments. Any decisions about further testing should have been discussed with us, but they never communicated this. After Blanket passed, I reviewed her medical records and discovered that she had kidney and liver issues, which were never mentioned to us during the visit. Despite these conditions, they prescribed Meloxicam, a medication that is known to worsen kidney and liver problems. This likely accelerated Blanket's decline. We trusted their expertise and followed their treatment plan, not knowing that this medication would harm her even more. It was only after her passing that I discovered these issues by interpreting the medical records myself--something that should have been communicated to us clearly from the start. They did mention a heart murmur during the visit, but reassured us that it wasn't dangerous. Additionally, the systemic inflammation and excessive thirst--the reasons we brought Blanket in--were never properly addressed. They also briefly mentioned cancer when they examined a mass on Blanket, but after the fine needle aspiration (FNA), we were told it was just fat and not cancerous. Cancer was never seriously discussed during the visit, but now they use it as a possible explanation for her sudden death. This clinic's lack of communication and failure to inform us of critical health issues contributed directly to Blanket's passing. They gave us incomplete information and neglected to inform us of her kidney and liver conditions, instead prescribing medication that made those conditions worse. Our pet deserved better care, and so did we. I'm sharing this update to make others aware of our experience. If you choose to go to this clinic get a second opinion or better yet, avoid this place altogether. Rest in peace, Blanket. read more

My cat needed: cyst removal from neck and dental cleaning. Waterhouse Animal Hospital Estimate: ~$3,271 (including mandatory cardiology assessment by expensive magician who shows up only once a week) Sierra View Animal Hospital Estimate: ~$2,928 Hope Animal Foundation: $768 Note: I love the people at Waterhouse and Sierra View, my other animals still go there for regular checkups, but for surgery/procedures, they are out of my price range. On top of that, for Waterhouse and Sierra, there were a lot of "what if" scenarios in their billing/estimates where it the amount could go way over. I had an easy experience with Hope: from scheduling my visit on their website to scheduling my follow up surgery 2 weeks later. The initial assessment was thorough, the vet answered all my questions (I strongly recommend preparing a list beforehand). Hope Animal Foundation bills surgery by the hour/15 minute increments, and if they come under the estimate, they reduce the bill. Dr Reyes only took 10 mins to complete the surgery, the bulk of the time was waiting for the anesthesia to wear off. I would have had a 5 star experience but there was some miscommunication about the drop off. The issue is that the front desk worker, who was extremely helpful and polite, mentioned that the drop off process the day of surgery was to wait in the car and they would call our name in the parking lot. The process is actually to ignore the line and go to the front desk with the animal and mention you have a scheduled surgery/procedure. read more

The level of negligence and disregard for proper post-operative care demonstrated by HOPE Foundation is unacceptable, and we feel it is necessary to report this incident. If you had a similar incident I HIGHLY encourage to report them to the California state veterinary Boards. When I arrived to pick up my puppy, I immediately noticed a foul odor emanating from her. Her tail and bottom were visibly wet, and I informed the veterinary technician that I believed she had soiled herself. I was told that this was "normal" and was not offered any assistance with cleaning her. After I left the office and helped my puppy into the backseat of my car, I noticed another unpleasant odor. Upon closer inspection, I realized that my hands were covered in a brown substance, which I later determined to be feces. The feces was smeared all over my car's back seat, and I was shocked by the extent of the mess. I tried to take a few pictures, but the situation was overwhelming as I tried to clean my puppy, who was covered in both feces and urine. The feces appeared to have been on my puppy for an extended period, as it had crusted into her paws and was present on her incision site. This led me to believe that she had been left in this condition for several hours, which I found deeply concerning. I immediately returned to the office and informed the receptionist about the state in which my puppy had been returned to me. No apology was offered. I requested towels or wipes to help clean my puppy and my car, but I was told there were no towels available and was directed to a public restroom for paper towels. No staff member offered to assist with the situation. It wasn't until my mother intervened that a staff member came out to assess the situation, at which point they took my puppy back to "clean her." However, the cleaning was inadequate, and I had to continue cleaning my puppy once I got home. After explaining the situation to my husband, he promptly called the facility to speak with a manager but received no response. He followed up with an email on the same day, stating that if my puppy developed any infections as a result of the negligence, we would expect the facility to cover the associated medical expenses. Despite several attempts by my husband to contact the facility via phone and email, we received no response until he visited in person. Throughout this process, the facility denied responsibility, and we were told that our puppy was not covered in feces, despite photographic evidence to the contrary. Unfortunately, my puppy did develop a severe urinary tract infection (UTI), which caused bleeding, straining, and incontinence. She required a week of wearing diapers to manage the condition. We consulted our primary veterinarian, who confirmed that the likely cause of the infection was the neglectful care at HOPE Foundation. According to our veterinarian, this type of infection is typically "ascending" and can result from prolonged exposure to feces and urine. We have made repeated attempts to contact HOPE Foundation to seek compensation for the additional veterinary care required to treat my puppy's infection, but to date, our calls and emails have been ignored. Update as of 9/22/2025: They emailed stating this incident does not meet the criteria for a refund. read more

Do not come here, when I went in the whole time the intern or whatever was doing all the talking and the vet was nowhere to be seen, she kept pushing her tablet into my face with the cost of everything and no clear answers. They're money hungry. This is the answer to my dog having lumps on her stomach that they were positive it's her intestines being pushed out. But come back with the results a week later with this? They charged me $100+ for a radiology and another $100+ to send it out to a specialist bc they couldn't read what it said there, then now this place can't? Yet they still are trying to push me to get her spayed just like they tried doing while I was there. read more

WELLNESS CLINIC IS A JOKE!!!! DO NOT COME HERE!!!!Their pricing has flea TREATMENT listed on their website for $15. They tried charging my husband $140 for 3 doses of flea treatment (for a cat). They also quoted him a few hundred dollars for other miscellaneous procedures/blood work etc. Trying to squeeze as much money out of him as possible! We have a regular vet for those procedures and they are actually less expensive. Lastly, when asked about the $15 treatment listed they said that's for a "flea evaluation" Completely ridiculous and misleading. Do not come here!!! GO TO THE FRESNO SPCA WALK-IN CLINIC!!!

Took our female dog to HOPE on July 18, 2024 to get spayed. Arrived at 7:00 am, checked in by scanning a QR code (posted by the entrance). I was notified by text when they were ready to take our dog. 2 1/2 hours later, we were able to pick her up. Overall the check in and pick up process was easy and smooth. Employees were nice and friendly. The photo below was taken today 7/25/24, 1 week post op. Our dog is healing, no sign of redness just a little swollen. She was her normal self by day 3! Have to keep her in a playpen to prevent her from moving too much. We are very happy with the procedure and overall experience. Thank you to everyone at HOPE! For taking great care of our dog. read more

Hope Animal Foundation - 1 week after surgery. No redness and swelling has gone down. - Veterinarians Near Me - Fresno, California

Very frustrated by Hope right now. I had an appointment last Wednesday for a cat I found on the street. The appointment system is fine for a low cost clinic and the vaccinations were quick but I also purchased her a dewormer. When they brought the cat out after the vaccinations they handed me a dewormer tablet to administer myself. As a first time cat owner I expected them to have just done it while we were there but the tech said it would be no problem to get her to take it. Boy was she wrong (keep in mind she's from the streets. Which I told the tech). I tried several different ways to get her to take this tablet (which was the size of her mouth to begin with) including letting her try to eat it herself, the scruff and stuff method (whole and broken up), and crushing and mixing it with the liquid treat she goes crazy for. She refused, scratched the crap out of me, and I ended up having to dump it. I called to see what my options were but it was already after hours so I sent them a text (per the answering machine's instructions). It says they get back to you within 1-2 business days but I heard nothing from them. So I called today (exactly one week later) to try and figure this out. They were ZERO help. They said "we can't give you a replacement dose because it's been a week since you were here. You would have to repurchase it and we legally cannot administer it." So basically I would have to spend more money for the same tablet that she refused and they can't help me get it into her. I am beyond frustrated. Thanks for all your help, Hope. I'm trying my best to care for this cat and you can't even help me help her. Moral of the story, if you decide to go here, you better know what you're doing and have some experience because you won't get any help if you don't. read more

Hope has very reasonable cost for spay/neuter and vaccinations so I booked it all for a kitten. Communication with the facility is 99.9% online email or text. When I attempt to call I always receivea voice message referring me to text or online. The only time I spoke to an actual person was at drop off and pick up. They were pleasant and quick to get us in and out. Once I figured out how the process works it went very smoothly and I am pleased. The only thing that bothered me is when I picked up the kitten she had pooped several times in her carrier with her inside and that's how she was released to me Poop and all. Needless to say I was not prepared so the ride home was rather unpleasant! read more

***Please!!!*** DO NOT take your pets here!! I had taken my fur babies in to be fixed. One was my daughters puppy that she loved so much. I am so sickened by this place and they could care less. I brought our babies home on a Friday late afternoon after getting then spayed and neutered. They were both really out of it (thinking well ya, they just had surgery). The next day they were getting even more lethargic and then the vomiting started. It being a weekend I couldn't call them like it says to do if we have any concerns. We ended up taking our babies to the ER. They wanted of course to start running test and such. Well just having them fixed I wanted to know what was going on because I felt they (Hope) should be paying for something if that's what's causing all of this. But I needed also find out what was wrong with my babies. So ya!! I had to run tests. It turns out they have tetanus. Animals don't normally get tetanus unless you have an open wound and well dirty surgery tools. We wanted the hospital to start treating them but Hope Needs to pay for their carelessness. It's now Monday and we FINALLY got a hold of Hope and they said they did nothing wrong and they weren't paying for anything. After going around and around with these people (I was Mad!!), waisting treatment time they finally said we will cover it if you take puppy's to a specific hospital. It's almost as if they knew to just waste more and more time and eventually they'll be too far gone and not have to pay for a costly treatment and/or taking the responsibility of admitting they were careless. By time we took our babies to the other ER hospital that Hope told us to go to, and our babies were examined, they said they were already too far gone. =( Yep!! Just as they planned, I believe. Basically they ended up killing our babies and did just enough to basically cover their but$$. But that doesn't matter because it will never bring mine or my daughters fur babies back. The damage is done!! Now that I look back and read all the Google and other thousands upon thousands of reviews that this same thing has happened to so many other pet lovers. It just makes me sick that I didn't look there first. Just be warned and do your research. My pets are a part of my family. And I lost not 1 but 2 that day as I'm sure others did as well. read more

After I got my new kitty, who at the time was two months, I fount Hope Animal foundation online and went with them based on their prices. I've come 3 times, twice for shots and once to get her sprayed. During the first time I can, I kind of got into it with the person taking my info, cause she kept making it seem like the prior shots need to get redone just because I didn't have paperwork but I just got the kitten and the prior owners stressed to me when to get the next shot by since the first round was done to avoid the very scenario of needing to redo the first set... That was enough for me and I was there at Hope, within the timeframe only to get chewed out. I shut her up and kept it moving. Didn't have a problem since. read more
