They are guilty of false advertising. They have no ability to x-ray to do blood work and the van doesn't exist. I was desperate and my kitten Oliver died. All they did was recommend a hospital. None of which were open. I asked for the fluids that they stated they had. My baby kitty put up up a fight but they didn't even try and said the needles weren't the right size. I almost lost my job taking my kitten to work I was so afraid to leave him alone. I couldn't leave him in the car. I begged to keep him in my bosses office and I got called in. I told him I've got an appointment on my lunch hour to diagnose him and treat him. None of those things happened. Two days later my baby kitten died in my arms. They really only exist for vaccinations and nothing more. Do not fall for it it's a scam. read more

The published phone number hangs up before you can leave a message. I've tried to repeat it. Not a good look.

Just called the number listed on here and it went to an answering service for Best vet or something. They did not know the name of the Dr. nor could they find it. They said they have multiple vets all over yet when they looked in my area (Ladera) they only had telehealth appointments. How does that even work for an animal that needs bloodwork? read more

If you are looking for a awesome Vet , look no further. Dr Ryan is the best and our Stella and Sabrina loved him and his assistant Kelsey and the best part is he comes to your home. Sadly I had to ask him to put our Stella down after she had a Stroke. She was 16 1/2 years old and was such a wonderful part of our family. I was able to be in the Van and watch the procedure and it was so calm and peaceful and so much better than having it done in a busy clinic. My husband and I and our little Sabrina have moved back to Northern California and we really miss Dr Ryan and Kelsey. Wishing all the best to them both. Thank you for your wonderful care of our doggies. read more

I recently moved to OC and have four dogs, all with different temperaments and problems. In the past, one of my dogs would routinely escape from the vet's office due to his stubbornness: he would jolt out of the room and run to the exit. One of my other dogs also suffered severe arthritis in her back legs, and although she was prescribed pain meds, she wouldn't move all day. Thanks to OC Mobile vet, my stubborn dog actually tolerates the vet and can't run away, thus, getting the proper treatment he deserves. My other dog now tries to jump on her hind legs -- although she fails -- and runs around with her siblings thanks to her new pain meds. Although I was skeptical of a mobile vet at first, I have no regrets. Dr. Ryan does sincerely care and examines the dogs thoroughly. He is also really good with larger dogs who have a bad rep. My eldest dog is a pitt, and the first time he met her, he greeted her, gained her trust, and gently picked her up into his van. Dr. Ryan's partner in crime (I don't know her name), is also super friendly and compassionate for all the animals. Although it appears that your furry children are being picked up into a creepy van, the service is phenomenal, and I will continue seeing Dr. Ryan for as long as possible. read more

We love Dr. Ryan!!!!!! He genuinely cares about your fur babies. Super sweet and compassionate veterinarian read more

I Have to give a huge shout out to Dr. Ryan Lefmann and his team, this is the BEST veterinarian situation one could ask for, and Dr Ryan is so professional and loving of animals and it shows!!! I am so happy I discovered OC Mobile Vet! His van is exquisite and super clean and state of the art! He is very comparable and less expensive than most procedures needed for your pets. He has capabilities for full surgery and can set you up with post op in home, does teeth cleaning and extraction, and all the normal pet care you normally have to get the pets in their carriers and stress them out etc. Instead, I simply carried my cat out to him and he was all set, no freaking out for the carrier or tearing my arms up. While he worked on my pets teeth I was able to be inside getting work done, so convenient! Check him out! Let him know I referred you! Cheers! read more

Great service ! Why didn't I think of mobile sooner! I have 3 cats and a dog. Dr. Ryan was great with all of them. Not having to put my cats into a carrier Was awesome and he could see what was happening With their litter boxes. Fantastic service ! read more

Absolutely incredible experience. I will never take my cat to another vet! Dr. Ryan and his assistant were able to see my cat the same day I requested an appointment. Their communication, expertise and professionalism was beyond stellar. This is such a great idea, a vet that will travel to you, and it's so refreshing to have it be executed by two animal-loving and kind people that I feel I can completely trust to take excellent care of my pets. read more

Dr. Ryan has always been skilled, professional, timely, and caring. He has taken good care of our dog's health throughout her life and supported us with compassion throughout. We are very grateful to him. My daughter is on a ventilator so it is incredibly difficult for me to leave the house, but he has the skill, and the van has the appropriate medical equipment, for him to care for his patients well at their homes. My daughter's nurses (LVN, RN) and my husband (PharmD) have always been impressed with his bedside manner as well as medical explanations and treatment approach. We highly recommend him. read more

Dr. Ryan is the absolute best. He has been caring for our dogs for a few years now. He is reliable and so compassionate. He does not do unnecessary work and is very up front and honest regarding your animals health. He is responsive and honestly, we love having his as our mobile vet read more

Dr. Ryan and his assistant are awesome! They were able to squeeze me in the same day. When they got here, my 15 year old cat was terrified. To avoid drama between him and the other cats, they suggested examining him in the bathroom, since I had him sequestered in there anyways. That requires applause, because this bathroom is a tiny (very tiny) half bath. The vet, his assistant, the cat and myself all crammed in for the assessment and subsequent treatment. They never made a fuss about working in tight quarters or sitting on the floor (to be on Mufasa's level). The pricing is extremely reasonable and very comparable to regular vet visits. Labs came back quickly and the doctor took his time to explain everything and put my mind at ease. If you are on the fence about getting a mobile vet, jump over to this side. It was my first time using a mobile vet. The reason I did so is because when you have multiple cats, they tend to fight on the way to the vet. If you only take one, they hiss and fight for days upon return. But with the home visit, even though he was examined without other cats watching, he never left the house. He smelled like alcohol from the lab draw and carried the scent of the vet and his assistant, yet there were still no cat fights after. This was the best decision I have ever made. I was waiting to take my cat to the vet to avoid the fall out. I'm so glad I decided to have the vet to the house. Also, it's very nice to be able to communicate with your vet via text! Way to get with the times! Who uses the phone anymore?! 5 stars for Dr. Ryan and his awesome team at Orange County Mobile Vet! read more

Dr. Ryan was fantastic - professional, competent, and kind. We're extremely happy with his care of our furry family member. Not only great care, but his prices are very fair for the type of service he's offering. Absolutely recommend him to anyone. read more

Our beloved family dog needed to be put to rest and we wanted it to be done in the comfort of our own home. I reached out to OC Mobile Vet and they responded promptly and came to our house that afternoon. They were very patient and supportive during their visit, and did not rush. I would say it was the best of a sad situation. read more

Ryan is truly amazing. He came recommended by another vet that didn't do home visits. He helped us many times from simple vaccine appointments to gracefully transitioning our late Shepherd when time came to ease him of his pain in this world:-( He is honest, patient & very knowledgeable. Very comfortable with large dogs. Good energy overall & super reasonable prices! Highly recommend! read more

Could not be more thankful for the wonderful care of this amazing team!! Super affordable and they truly care. I needed more meds for my doggie and Ryan came right away to drop them off. It doesn't get better than that. I really appreciate the ability to text also with questions. 100% best bet around read more

It has been more than two years since Dr. Lefmann helped our sweet border collie, Josie, cross the Rainbow Bridge, but I just came across this website and had to take the opportunity to share what a compassionate man he was at a time when we were grief stricken by the sudden decline and ultimate demise of our beloved pet. As any pet owner knows, the chances are good that we will have to face this day, and it's never easy. Learning that she had advanced cancer was devastating. With Dr. Lefmann, who administered the shot and then sat quietly with us and Josie on the floor, we were able to be beside her, to pet and speak to her as the medicine eased her to sleep. She passed in her home, on her rug, and with her family. We're grateful to Dr. Lefmann for enabling her to go so peacefully. read more

I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Our experience with Dr. Ryan was nothing short of perfection. He was on time (early actually) and so friendly. I was really worried about taking out cat to the vet, he is VERY territorial and hates all other cats. We needed a wellness check and a vaccine and the entire thing took less that 15 minutes. Our kitty got a clean bill of health minus the stress of a vet visit! Thank you Dr. Ryan! read more

Extremely happy with the entire experience. My German Shepherd is my child. She needed a teeth cleaning under anesthesia and a few other things checked out. OC Mobil Vet was on time, friendly, caring and answered all my questions. I never felt rushed from beginning to end. My pup ended up needing a tooth extraction and additional meds - Dr. Lefmann provided a video to show why it was needed and even gave us a nutritional consult on her. Best of all, the prices were far far far more fair and reasonable than any veterinarian I've ever been to. I was able to work around the house and my dog did not have the same level of stress (she thought she was going for a car ride and when she woke up she did not need to sit in a cage waiting for pickup) I have no idea why everyone in the world doesn't use this service, such an incredible find. read more

Our cat had an abscess we needed to have addressed, but the last several time we've had to take him to the vet it's clearly traumatic for him, making it likewise traumatic for us. I won't go into great details except to say he makes a huge mess all over himself and his carrier. We were afraid a mobile option would cost a fortune, but got very quick feedback when we requested a quote. The quote was not as excessive as we had feared and the extra cost was definitely worth not having to wrestle our cat into a carrier and struggle with the aftermath. Dr. Leffman and his assistant were friendly, efficient and very communicative through setting up our appointment to follow up after the appointment. We will definitely use these guys again, though of course we hope we never have to. read more

I rarely review businesses but feel strongly to do so about our experience today. All of Dr. Ryan's 5 star reviews are beyond true. We had our first vet visit with Dr. Ryan today for annual as well, sick call for loss of appetite/vomiting. Firstly, very prompt and can communicate via text message. Which is awesome with a kid (no missing phone calls and going back and forth). Most importantly, he was knowledgeable, listened extremely well, clinically/physically examined our dog throughly and was extremely compassionate towards our pup. He gave us a spot on response to symptoms, home remedies and some medication to help the situation. Given our dog had shots, exam and blood drawn- she was bouncing around 15 mins later. For the first time after a vet visit, my husband and I felt ALL of our questions were answered. Best of all- we were all calm in our own home. We could really describe what was going on with our dog- had a chance to show Dr Ryan what food she is on and got a thumbs up- it was such a great experience. 5 stars is simply not enough. read more

Dr Ryan is awesome We have a 17 year old cat that taking into an office we be traumatic. He has an abscess on his back that needs tending to monthly We are so grateful for him and his team We have another car that stresses so bad going to the vet she needed oxygen last time Dr Ryan is always available and goes out of his way to get to you :) read more

We had the occasion to use OC Mobile Vet recently for what was supposed to be a routine procedure and our beloved cat (Baltimore, a sphynx - 9 years old) passed away a couple hours after the procedure. While it is unclear the exact cause, there are several cautionary notes I want to share with anyone considering using this service: 1. The time spent with our cat after his procedure was VERY limited; another vet told us it would be more typical not to release our cat to us for a few hours. Perhaps this is part of the pressure a Mobile Vet feels to move onto the next client. I'm not sure if the outcome would have been different but we wouldn't be left wondering if a professional might have observed something we did not and been able to intervene... PLEASE CONSIDER THIS BEFORE USING ANY MOBILE VET FOR A SURGICAL PROCEDURE. 2. Access post-procedure is limited and you will be referred to the closest 24 hr emergency after 6pm if any concerns or questions; don't expect a follow up call to check on your pet. 3. Seek much clearer information about potential risks (as these weren't as explicit when we agreed to have this procedure - though of course we were told "there is always risk to anesthesia") 4. Be clear about what to look for post-procedure as the instructions were vague. Now a few additional details about what transpired... Baltimore had a tooth abscess that required removal of the tooth (later, more than one tooth). We had expressed a great deal of concern about having our cat put under anesthesia in a mobile clinic but were giving a lot of reassurances that Ryan had performed this routine procedure many times and we had nothing to worry about. We were told our cat was thoroughly examined and showed no health concerns other than the tooth abscess that was the reason for the procedure. Baltimore did fine during his surgery and was released to us about 45-60 minutes post op. He seemed ok other than general lethargy, which we were told was normal. We checked in on him from time to time after and didn't notice anything out of the ordinary besides the tiredness, although we were given very few post-discharge instructions. A few hours later we found that he had passed. As you can imagine, this was shocking to our whole family. We attempted to call Ryan and, because it was after business hours, we couldn't reach him (via voicemail or text), nor did he call to check on Baltimore so it wasn't until the next day that we were able to talk to him. He seemed empathetic and shared he'd never lost a cat from a routine procedure. He said he'd be back in touch about our bill. Later, we were surprised to be offered a 50% discount. I will say I was taken aback to have to pay for a routine procedure that resulted in an unexpected death - especially considering the limited time he was monitored post-procedure, the difficulty reaching Ryan after his death when we were attempting to navigate what to do with the remains and still baffled by what could have possibly happened, and the fairly low cost of the procedure. I supposed we imagined it strange not to have been offered a refund entirely. We shared our discontent to which Ryan responded, "everything went so smoothly..." It obviously did not go so smoothly. Ryan seems like a nice guy. He is fairly young in his practice and perhaps hasn't had enough experience yet as a mobile vet to fully understand some of the extra risks of this model. I'm also not convinced he understands the concept of "lifetime value of a customer" otherwise I think he would have made other decisions about our bill. Nonetheless, I can assure you I will not be using a mobile vet service of any kind for a surgical intervention in the future. Also, I should mention that our dog had a rabies vaccination from Ryan some months before which resulted in a rather dramatic injection site-specific abscess, requiring hundreds of dollars of emergency intervention (again when we were not able to get ahold of Ryan after hours and were concerned...) I'm told this is sometimes a common side effect, but we didn't hear that prior to rushing our dog to the emergency room. We are happy to report Memphis is doing fine and the issue resolved without further incident. At the time, we had no reason to not continue with Ryan, but it certainly has crossed our mind since losing Baltimore that we had a separate bad outcome from his mobile service. read more

Orange County Mobile Vet - In memory... - Veterinarians Near Me - Ladera Ranch, California

We called Dr. Ryan because there was no way we were taking our sometimes fearful & aggressive Pit-Rhody mix out to another veterinary office. Dr. Ryan was the 1st mobile vet I called, and I fully expected the call to be the first of several rejections. Incredibly, Dr. Ryan was concerned about the past trauma from prior visits to other vets, and wanted to help our dog. We administered an oral sedative the morning of the visit. Dr. Ryan and his assistant arrived, and soon demonstrated they really do have a way with even challenging dogs. My pit-rhody was given a twilight sedative for his bi-annual tests, shots, and nail clips, and afterward seemed to want to go home with Dr. Ryan! (That 'never' happens. Except today.) Our two other dogs received minor maintenance. We were delighted with Dr. Ryan and his assistant's help. The charges were at least comparable, if not better than, we normally would have spent, and we didn't have to leave home. Our doggies - including our biggest, sometimes-scary doggie - have a new Vet. read more

Can't say enough about Ryan. When I left for work yesterday my dog was fine; when I got home he was having difficulty standing and walking. He didn't seem to be in any life threatening distress so I decided to wait for the morning. This morning it wasn't any better so I checked YELP for mobile vets, it was between Ryan and Dr Silvia's Mobile Veterinary Clinic; both of whom have great YELP reviews. Ryan was the first to call back so I went with him. Like some others have posted my dog just gets way to stressed out when he's taken to the vets and I didn't want to have to deal that and with a dog that was having trouble walking plus having to wait in the lobby and then an exam room. Ryan was on time, obviously loves animals and what he's doing plus he's a really nice young man. I will not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. read more

I highly recommend Dr. Ryan and his team. I have 2 senior dachshunds that have become extra high maintenance with their older age. I looked into a mobile vet initially because one of my dog's anxiety with regular vet trips was so bad that it was extremely stressful for her and I. With Dr. Ryan's mobile setup , it helps to reduce this stress since I just walk my dog a few steps from the house for a checkup. Dr. Ryan has helped my dogs with dental cleanings, eye scratches, anxiety issues and more. He is responsive to communication and tries to accommodate your schedule as best he can. Dr. Ryan has a calm demeanor and listens. A good balance to my high strung nature! I will be using his services for a long time to come. read more

An appointment with Dr. Lefmann is the single most important call that you will make this year in the interest of your pet. Having someone so knowledgeable about veterinary medicine that comes to your home to care for your pet takes so much of the stress out of going to see the vet for you and your furry family member! No more loading your dog into the car, the nervous shedding that inevitable sticks to every inch of your interior, or that heartbreaking moment when he realizes that he isn't going to the park. I'm a client for life. read more

Very highly recommend Dr Ryan! My dog was itching like crazy so I sent an email over the weekend to see if I could get him checked out. Dr Ryan responded back early Monday morning and was able to come out and examine my dog that afternoon. He was on time (actually early) really friendly and explained everything to me with great detail. It is so convenient to have him come to my house, see my dog and provide me with all needed medication. Very reasonably priced as well. I will absolutely continue to use Dr Ryan for any vet needs. read more

I just want to give a big shout out to Dr. Leffman and his assistant Cassie! My kitty had an abscess that needed addressing , but the last time I took him to the vet it was very traumatic for him being an older kitty. I was at first leery of a mobile vet option but decided it was the best option for my cat. I contacted Dr. Leffman and he promptly returned my text message and set up and appointment. Dr. Leffman and his assistant showed up promptly at the scheduled time and were both extremely friendly and walked me through everything they were going to do. They answered all questions I had and are definitely true professionals. I could tell that both genuinely have a natural affinity and rapport with animals and are very in touch with the needs of the animal being treated. I wasn't sure what to expect with pricing and was shocked to find that the pricing is extremely fair and reasonable. I would put them at much more reasonable that actually going into a walk in vet. There mobile station was extremely clean and appeared to have everything needed for almost any situation. I would like to repeat once more these people are fantastic and I will continue using them in the future for both my cat's needs. I cannot recommend enough to give them a try to avoid the unwanted trips to the vet that put undue stress on your animal. Huge thanks again to Dr. Leffman and Cassie for fixing up Tiger! read more

Dr. Ryan and his assistant Kelsey were so kind, patient, and thorough with my 16 year girl Ginger. I really appreciated them being available on short notice, asking a lot of questions, and helping to narrow down what may be going on with her, This was hands down the best mobile vet experience I have ever had, and even better than my current Vet which we have to drive 30 minutes to see. Just a really great, professional, all around wonderful experience. If we hadn't just moved to Phoenix, we would never call another Vet. Thank you for all your time and help with my fur child. read more

I have known Ryan for many years when he was a Vet Tech and then onto becoming a veterinarian. He is very good and just did an aesthetic dental for one of my cats. She came through it just fine and she is so much happier without red gums and infected teeth. How many vets call to follow up multiple times and even after one month called me to see how she was doing. He is the best! Do yourself a favor and call Ryan. read more

Great mobile company. Treated us awesome during a terrible situation. Great customer service all around!

My dog has been really sick so I decided to book at old vet but they have new owners I don't like so a friend refereed me to Dr Ryan. I didn't even know mobile vets exist. We text and he made room for me within a few hours and arrived at my home on time. Dr Ryan and his assistant were SO nice. They gave my baby some meds and hopefully he doesn't need to be seen again Thursday. They were very gentle, the van was spotless and the price was great. Definitely a must see dr. So compassionate and convenient. read more

Just had our first visit with Dr. Ryan and his assistant Kelsey. I left a phone message and it was promptly returned to set up the appointment. First, let me say how professional they both were and arrived on time for the appointment. I have 3 in-door cats and Dr. Ryan was very caring in his examination of the cats and very gentle, as was his assistant Kelsey. I am glad to have found such a wonderful in-home mobile vet. The issues were resolved without stressing the cats out for a trip to the vet's office and I'm sure they appreciated staying at home for the exams. Thanks so much, Dr. Ryan!!!!! read more

Super friendly and helpful getting my cat ready for a long flight. A little extra cost for them to come to me, but well worth it.

I moved from another local vet because they were expensive and missed a couple of things they should have caught. Dr. Lefmann is a huge upgrade and he charges less!! This guy loves being a vet. It's his calling and he's very good at it. He is thorough, thoughtful and caring. He is totally into his work. My pup used to shudder when we brought him to our last vet. Now Brooks shakes his tail and doesn't cry much at all. Lots of love and knowlege with this first-class professional. It would be very hard to find a better vet. Ryan is so friendly you dont want to leave. I highly recommend. read more

Dr. Ryan helped us take our 18 1/2 old Tonkinese boy over to the other side. He was enormously patient and empathetic with our situation and I would not hesitate to recommend his services to any pet owner who wants a qualified vet who sincerely cares about pets and their owner's relationship with same. Don't let your pet get stressed out by a visit to the vet's offices, when Dr. Ryan can bring the vet's office to you. read more

Dr. Ryan is truly the best! He took pre-labs to assure our 13 year old dog is healthy and able to survive full mouth extractions. A few days after the surgery, Dr. Ryan followed-up to assure his patient was convalescing appropriately. We will continue to enjoy Dr. Ryan's mobile vet hospital services for years to come, because our doggy will now be with us for many more years. Thank you, Dr. Ryan! His tail is wagging --- I swear doggy now smiles! read more

Going to the vet with my two dogs and a toddler is always such a task and I hate the anxiety we all (including the dogs) get when walking into a typical veterinarian's office. I looked up "mobile vet" on Yelp and saw Orange County Mobile Vet and was sold! They were able to come out the next day, and my husband was blown away by the bus! He said it looked just like an exam room, and very clean. They were able to get my 2 dogs back up to date on their health, including diagnosing one of my dogs with a UTI and treating her chronic ear problems!!! They had all the medications on hand and were even able to add on cutting their nails (another task I hate!) Their pricing was very competitive and they ere super quick, professional, and convenient!!! I will definitely be using them again in the future! Thank you so much for making my life so much easier!!! read more
