I love this veterinary clinic. My puppy, Harley, ate a rubber band, so I rushed her to Lone Tree…read moreAnimal Care, where she saw Dr. Sandhu. He ran a blood test and found that her blood glucose level was low, which was the reason for her seizures. He ensured she was hydrated and kept her there for the entire day. Dr. Sandhu explained everything he would be doing and was always professional; he truly cared about Harley's well-being. When it was time to pick her up, Harley looked better, but by that time, Dr. Sandhu had already left for the day. Dr. Navreen was the one who released Harley, and she seemed unaware of what was happening. I asked her what I should do if Harley has another seizure, and she appeared surprised, as if she didn't know what to advise. Eventually, she told me to take Harley to the emergency clinic. I explained that I had already paid this vet $1,190, so I wouldn't be able to afford the emergency care. She paused, seemingly uncertain about what I should do next. I then asked if I could have some medication in case of an emergency, and she gave me some meds. A month later, I brought my other puppy, Chip, to this vet when he was almost a month old. He was constipated, which led to dehydration and a drop in his blood glucose level. Dr. Navreen was the doctor who attended to Chip. I explained the situation to her, but she didn't seem to care about what I was saying. I asked if she would give Chip medication because I was aware his blood glucose levels were low. She waited at least 7 to 10 minutes before taking him to the back to administer the medication. Six minutes later, she came out and told me that my puppy had passed away before they could do anything. I asked her what had happened, and she mentioned that she was going to take a blood sample from the vein in his neck. When she returned Chip to me, I noticed he smelled like rubbing alcohol, which the vet tech later said they applied to his neck. However, it also smelled like it was in his mouth. I questioned how she was going to perform the blood test since the area on his neck hadn't been shaved. I cannot recommend Dr. Navreen; she is unprofessional and does not care about pets. However, I do highly recommend Dr. Sandhu for his dedication and care. Dr. Navreen does not need to work with any pets her energy is negative. She killed my puppy. I pray she sees my review.

I brought my cat into VCA hospital in Thursday evening after I realized that my cat was in…read morebreathing distress. He's an indoor and outdoor cat however since raccoons have been around my area, I've started bringing my cat indoors at night. He managed to get out and ended up being in a fight with a stray cat. Once he was inside, my family and I noticed feces on him so my son washed him. Perhaps a drop of water got into his nasal cavity and he started having trouble breathing while gagging and retching. We thought he had something obstructing his throat. When we arrived to VCA, there were NO customers in the lobby which was a relief. The receptionist moved quickly, took our cat to the back and we were brought to a exam room to wait. Soon, we were told another pet was being seen before ours because the other pet needed care immediately. That's odd as a cat in breathing distress seems to be very urgent but apparently not at VCA hospital. The receptionist kept us abreast of what was happening until she came to tell us that she was closing our exam door because an aggressive dog was coming to the hospital. I appreciated that attention but once the door was closed, it seemed like we were forgotten. After a hour and twenty five minutes, I left the exam room to inquire from the receptionist desk at which point Dr. Haley Collins FINALLY came to our exam room. Her tone was crude and unfriendly. She was curt, unapologetic and relatively rude. She wasn't forthright with information to the point that I needed to ask questions about the costs. I asked her if she could detect if there was something in my cats throat to which she replied that my cat hissed at her. Hmm, that's what cats do. After she left my exam room, I overheard her exchange with the next customers (Caucasians) in the next room and she was very different with them as her attitude was pleasant, bubbly and energetic. She was gracious and friendly unlike what she presented us. I decided not to get the care from VCA hospital and paid the exam fee which Dr Collins didn't do. I basically paid for Dr Collins to be rude to me. It always preplexes and baffles me when other marginalized people like Asians are prejudice, intolerant, and rude to other marginalized people. I have been to VCA once before and I've never experienced this conduct from a vet. It was extremely disappointing and drastically contrary to what I experienced at SAGE hospital in Concord. Thank goodness for Yelp as people need to know how disrespected customers feel at some businesses with rude and prejudice "professionals". I paid a bit more at SAGE hospital in Concord and it was much farther from my house BUT the care I received was exceptional. VCA hospital took my exam fee $180.10 and did absolutely NOTHING. It just burns my soul knowing that businesses can charge you for no care. I wish I could give -

While my dog's issue was considered an emergency, if something of a higher priority would come in then our wait could be much longer. Totally understandable. We were brought to the back almost immediately where they began doing some necessary tests to get to the bottom of my girls issue. My dog was brought back to me and I was told a critical animal came in and the doctor would have to try to stabilize that pet before she could come talk to me. I appreciated being kept informed. When Dr. Lenz came into the room she apologized for the delay which was nice but not expected at all, I totally understand these things happen. It's just like being in the human ER. We were treated with kindness the whole time. I was never pressured to agree to extra testing. Dr. Lenz told me what was suggested and let me decide. Thank you Dr. Lenz and the whole staff for your kindness and compassion that you show your patients, human and furry!

This…read morepast experience is in no way a negative against the staff as far as their customer service, but more of an "educational" review. I sent this email to them on 1/3, and I haven't received a response yet. Even when this incident occurred, the staff was attentive and went above and beyond to try to resolve the situation. I'm posting this for education to anyone who has a cat. This is a copy of my email on 1/3: Good morning, I wanted to personally write instead of posting a review on Yelp, about our experience when we brought Maple in on Sunday, December 28th. Our family has a long history of pets that we have brought in over the years, and we have never had a negative experience in any way, in fact, I have always spoke highly of the entire staff there when recommending to friends and family. I want to start off by staying that our experience on 12/28 was not a negative one with regards to the staff, but I am writing this email to bring something to your attention in hopes of educating staff to prevent this from happening in the future (and yes, it's not a matter of "if" but a matter of "when" when cats are involved!). Maple has been very sick and multiple visits to her regular vet and your emergency, have happened the past month. We brought her to emergency on 12/28 in hopes of finding out what was wrong and finding a solution. Maple is a very nervous cat and doesn't like strangers, and she really did not like having anything shoved up her butt when she has been in a lot of discomfort due to the diarrhea. Maple was examined, then taken to the room for further testing. I wish I would have objected, but I trusted that staff would do their very best with regard to safety. Unfortunately, Maple escaped their hold and tried to find a place to hide, which was inside an open cabinet where there was an opening to the underside of the steel exam table. I'm sure I don't need to state how dangerous this is and could have been if the outcome was different. Cats are very unpredictable creatures, and after we were invited to go back to the room to try to coax her out, I was surprised at the lack of secure spaces for cats. I want to add that this ordeal ended up being just short of 9 hours at. We tried everything to get her out. This was an extremely stressful and upsetting time for my daughter and I and resulted in my being awake for 24 hours. My daughter ended up calling in sick for work since we left the vet around 6am. I was doing my best not to be upset at staff, but I feel like looking back, there is a bit of negligence on their part. My request is that staff is educated, more careful, and that there is some type of plan in place to mitigate any future occurrences. Maple was lucky. We were lucky that she didn't have a serious health condition and that she was healthy enough to be in that hole for that length of time. My ask is that you also find out from the manufacturer if there is a cover for the inside of that exam table, so that in the off-chance staff leaves that door open, that another cat will not have the same experience as Maple did. I look forward to your response.

It's not a suggestion. I've gone in crying over the worst and left with a smile. There's nothing myself or others could say that would even remotely cover the wonderful care they provide. They will love yours as their own no matter if it's an annual or non-preventative visit. They have waitlists and work with you on appt timing. Short wait times. Quick and efficient care. They don't try to upsell. Pricing is far more affordable compared to other vets in the area (with subpar care). I've read the negative reviews and let me combat them by saying ITS STANDARD FOR ANY OFFICE TO HAVE A GRACE PERIOD SO IF THATS NOT ABIDED BY ITS A YOU PROBLEM. They are extremely transparent on prices. Nothing is a surprise or mandatory. They do their best to work with you. The wait time (in comparison to other vets I've gone to) is far quicker than the hours I've experienced elsewhere. I enjoy a shortened visit that's straight to the point so I can go home sooner to cuddle my little one. We get it, reviews are subjective. BUT use them. TRUST

A routine dental cleaning for my two dogs turned into a traumatic, expensive nightmare due to sheer…read moreincompetence and a disgusting lack of transparency. They "only" charged $3400 for the cleanings, and failed to ask us if we are OK for them to remove all teeth from what used to be one of our dog's cute overbite. We also had to pay another $1500 for a follow-up emergency visit because they injured the other dog (and failed to tell us about it). Doctor must have a twisted sense of reality, because they told me the dogs did "fantastic" when I was called after the procedure. Dog 1: Permanent Disfigurement without Consent They extracted all six lower incisors from one of my dogs without a single phone call to discuss the necessity or get my consent. They effectively destroyed his signature look and "overbite" forever. We dropped off our cute dog and picked up a "small beast" with only two visible lower canines, all because they couldn't be bothered to pick up the phone. And I will be requesting the x-rays and get a second opinion in the necessity of the extractions, because the other incident described below shattered my confidence in their competence. Dog 2: Injury and Cover-Up While my other dog was under anesthesia, the staff managed to lacerate both of his ears while trimming his face. Let that sink in: they cut a dog that was chemically immobilized and not moving. Even worse, the doctor called me afterward and emphatically stated both dogs did "fantastic," choosing to deliberately hide the injuries. They didn't mention a word of it during the face-to-face pickup, either. Dog 2: Late night emergency follow-up visit We only discovered the injured ears after getting home. When we called, they downplayed the cuts as "no big deal" and admitted they had used skin glue to fix one cut. They didn't even provide an e-collar. A few hours later, my dog was bleeding profusely--blood was literally pooling on the floor. We had to rush him to an emergency vet where we discovered the cuts were so deep they required actual sutures. Because of this clinic's "minor" mistake, my small dog had to be put under anesthesia twice in less than 12 hours. And we had to foot a $1500 emergency bill, after an incident that traumatized our family.
