    I have been taking my cat Mr. Whiskers to Nordhoff for years. From the moment I walk in Jennifer the receptionist greets me with a smile and very personable. Love chatting with her. Took him in today and the staff is amazing. Today he saw Dr. Kang and she was very thorough and gave me recommendations on his care. Wendy the tech was very gentle with whiskers and he was so calm with her and I appreciate that very much. He's been seen by Dr. Cohen and Dr. P in the past as well and both are amazing! I am grateful for Nordhoff Veterinary Hospital and their wonderful staff for caring for my whiskers. I won't go anywhere else and mind you I commute from Long Beach and will continue doing so because I only trust Nordhoff for my cats care.

    I had to include his photo cause he's just so cute

    They got us in quickly when our new pup injured himself jumping. Staff and vet were friendly, professional and checked up on him multiple times in the following days while he took a med prescribed for his pain. They didn't push for expensive x rays right away, which was nice - especially since he got way better fairly quickly. Glad to have found a great vet so close to home!

    Our cat Ferrell

    Today I walked our cat into Nordoff veterinarian hospital. They immediately helped our cat I didn't have an appointment. I just did an emergency walk in. Everyone was so nice so kind so patient and knew how to deal with a blubbering mess of a kitty mom. I just want to say that I really appreciate all who helped our cat and myself unfortunately my cat Farrell didn't make it. I don't do reviews on really anything ever. I just want everyone to know how great this veterinarian hospital is. R. I. P. Too our regal loyal loving boy cat. Thank you to everyone at this establishment.

    When Buddy died they sent me a beautiful sympathy card with personal messages from each of the folks who took care of Buddy over the years. It also included paw prints and a small bag of fur. I'm putting the card, paw prints, and fur in a frame on my Dia de Los Muertos offrenda. ‍

    How much is dental care for small dogs?

    Hello! I just want to ask if you do vasectomy?

    Most likely they do not. They would neuter or spay your animal friend.

    What does an appt for a dog (new to the hospital) cost?

    Do you accept new walk in customers?

    Hi Margie, Thank you for your interest in our services. We do take in new clients but prefer that…

    Gemcore cancer to my house to put my 14 1/2 year old dog to sleep, so I can't say it was a great…read moreexperience. It was a terrible experience. But that was not the fault of the provider, just the fault of what I was having to do. The vet was very nice and very patient. She even gave me a late night appointment so I could spend some quality time with my Dog. Writing this review brings up my pain again, but they did such a good job that I want other people to know about them. They were, expensive, but that was partially because it was a late night visit.

    I went on Yelp and called several vets. The veterinarian with Gemcore is the only one who answered…read more I'm so sorry I can't even remember her name because everything happened so quickly and it's all such a blur, but she answered my call at almost 10:00 p.m. while she was driving, when no one else answered. The last thing you want when your fur baby is suffering is to reach voicemail after voicemail. Hearing a compassionate human voice on the other end of the phone brought me so much comfort. She came to my home first thing the next morning. I was worried about my younger Golden Retriever jumping on her or interfering with her care, but she was absolutely wonderful with both of my dogs. She encouraged him to stay in the room with us once he was comfortable with her, and I truly believe that helped him understand what was happening. She was incredibly professional, but I'll never forget one small moment. Out of the corner of my eye, while I was saying my final words and paying my last tributes to my girl, I saw her quietly wiping tears from her eyes. As a healthcare provider myself, I know how often we're expected to wear a mask and stay composed. Seeing that genuine emotion didn't make her seem less professional, it reassured me that she truly cared. In those final moments, your mind races. You question whether you're making the right decision. Seeing her emotion gave me peace because I knew she wasn't simply going through the motions. I knew that if she believed my girl wasn't ready, she would have told me. Most of us are fortunate enough to experience this kind of heartbreak only a few times in our lives. She carries families through it over and over again. That takes an incredible amount of compassion. Thank you for your kindness, your empathy, and for helping my sweet Lilo leave this world peacefully and with dignity. Please take care of yourself, too. The first photo is the day Oliver met Lilo as a puppy, their first photo together. The second was taken just before the veterinarian arrived to help Lilo pass. I didn't realize until later that I had unknowingly captured both the beginning and the end of their story together I will miss my Lilo for eternity.

    This was one of the worst customer-service experiences I've ever had at a veterinary clinic…read more My dog needs an LDDS test because of high liver enzymes. This is not optional or cosmetic--it's a serious diagnostic test. Yet the Banfield location in Chatsworth (91311) acted like scheduling it was a burden. They pushed back, resisted, and initially refused to book the appointment. It took a manager from another Banfield hospital calling them just to get an appointment made for today. That alone tells you how poorly this location is managed. When I arrived, I was 20 minutes late. I understand punctuality matters, but what happened next was unacceptable: they immediately used that as an excuse to refuse to perform the test, with zero effort to help or problem-solve. An LDDS test involves timed blood draws every 4 hours, so a professional clinic would explain options clearly, offer a modified plan if possible, or at minimum reschedule in a reasonable way. Instead, they acted like they were looking for a reason to turn us away. The practice manager, Katie, was hostile, dismissive, and confrontational. Her behavior was not just "busy" or "having a bad day"--it was outright disrespectful. I asked for the next available date or any alternative appointment, and she refused to schedule anything. No solutions. No accountability. No concern for my dog's health. Just attitude. Bottom line: If your pet needs real medical attention and you expect basic professionalism, avoid this Banfield in Chatsworth. They wasted my time, added stress during a health issue, and showed zero empathy or willingness to help. I will not be returning, and I strongly suggest you take your pet to a clinic that actually cares and behaves professionally.

The one negative is the wait sometimes but the staff and service have always been great. Update, I would also like to compliment them because recently my dog had an emergency where she got off the couch and started screaming in pain.

    I can't thank the entire team enough for the incredible care they gave my dog. We arrived just 30…read moreminutes before closing, they took her in for emergency surgery with such kindness and a positive attitude. At no point did we feel like we were an inconvenience, even though the staff stayed nearly three hours after closing to care for her. The entire team did an amazing job explaining the surgery, recovery process, and home care instructions. They answered all of our questions thoroughly, and I never felt rushed. Their compassion, professionalism, and dedication gave us so much comfort during a very stressful situation. Thank you for going above and beyond to save my dog's life. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend this veterinary to anyone looking for exceptional care.

    I would not recommend this place!…read more Before driving over, I called and specifically asked what the exam fee would be. I told them I was only about 15 minutes away and was coming straight in. I arrived exactly when I said I would, and the price had suddenly changed. It felt like a classic bait-and-switch. If your pricing changes at a certain time, tell the customer when they're on the phone and saying they are on the way, not after they've already arrived. When I questioned it, the manager was unprofessional and unwilling to honor the price their own staff had quoted me just minutes earlier over the phone. There was no accountability and no attempt to make the situation right. I can easily afford the difference, but that's not the point. I don't appreciate being misled. I told them I was deeply disappointed with how they handled the situation and that I would be leaving an honest review. They didn't seem to care at all. I genuinely feel bad for the owner if this is the level of customer service being provided. The worst part was that my dog was sitting there in pain while we argued over something that should have been simple.I left and went to another veterinary clinic down the street, where my dog was seen within minutes and received excellent care. If a business won't stand behind the price they quote over the phone, it's hard to trust them with anything more important. I imagine their final bill would have been ridiculous. Thankfully, I didn't stay long enough to find out. I won't be returning, and I hope this review saves someone else from wasting their time.
