    Amazing Vet & the coffee shop attached is the best..
    Kristen T.

    I live in California & bring all my pets here. They have the best staff. The care & quality of service is incomparable to what I get in California for 3xs the amount. I can come here & know I can afford my pets health care without breaking my bank..

    Lied about my dogs kidneys and heart failing , i was also told she had a uterus infection but that because she had these other health problems they could not give her any antibiotics or meds so basically i left with option of sleeping her i got a second opinion who read the results that, by the way are given to you by email many days later. This new Dr. told me that all her results were normal except the uterus infection but that could be easily treated and hoping we didn't wait to long . By the way when i told the new doctor where i took her he was not surprised and knew many horror stories from his clients that have gone this place and as im walking out clients in the waiting room heard our talk and confirmed that they knew the place and have also had very bad experiences. Fuck u and everyone there she was also cut in different places after being shaved for ultrasound and heart exam

    I had a good experience at this establishment. I brought my dog to get a haircut, a physical exam, shots, and a flea treatment. The staff was very courteous and friendly. They took good care of my dog and the Veterinarian took her time to examine him. The cost for all the above was less than half of what is charged in San Diego. However, the service is top notch. Their work is commendable.

    Mochi being fed kibble with a multivitamin gel for her

    My boyfriend and I found ourselves living a nightmare when our baby mochi had accidentally been ran over. Immediately my boyfriend calls multiple vets and Andaluz Hospital were the first to answer and immediately took our dog. The X-rays revealed her femur and hips were broken with multiple fractures. From the start the staff of Andaluz were incredibly caring but very transparent and honest about her condition and what would best. We decided surgery was the next step in which the medic team was incredibly informative and honest about the pros and cons of her surgery and post op. Her surgery was very successful and I can't thank the surgical team and administration of Andaluz enough. We left her there before and after her surgery ( 12 days) in which they were immensely communicative. They always answer, updated me everyday about her, sent me photos of her post care. The team of Andaluz went beyond the stars and provided the best care and comfortable environment for her after her surgery. They truly made me feel at such ease knowing and seeing just how much care and love they're giving her during her recovery. I can truly say the team of Andaluz performed an amazing successful surgery for such a delicate and complex fractures she had. As well as providing such care and love during her recovery and stay there. Thank you so much to the surgical and administration team for giving my dog a second chance at life all while saving my life in a way too.

    Left bloodshot eye. Due to trauma from groomer
    M C.

    Took my French Bulldog to get groomed at this location. He was to get a full bath, nail trim, ear cleaning done. We already knows he's an overly excited dog, upon dropping him off the groomer let my girlfriend know that he's very hyperactive. We agreed but also let them know he's used to baths and such and will be fine. Once we picked him up and arrived home, we realized that both his eyes were bloodshot. We quickly took him to the vet and he lets us know it was caused due to trauma. Could've been that he was hit by the groomer or choked out by him while getting the services done. Never again taking him there and no one should trust this location. I've contacted others and have been told that they've also experienced bad situations there and they have hurt their pets.

    Luna's first hair cut at El Perro Andaluz
    Niomi L.

    Very happy with this place!! Not only is it a 5 minute drive from my house, the gentleman that cut Luna's hair did a great job! I didn't catch his name unfortunately but I am very pleased with my Luna's hair cut. Surprisingly her paw hairs were trimmed as well, when I would take her to Petsmart the ladies would never cut her paws because they said Luna wouldn't let them, but this gentleman had no problem doing so! When she came out from the back she was super excited to see us and she seemed more comfortable from before when coming into the groomers. They also gave her a cute little bandana! Great service for an AMAZING price! We will definitely be coming back to El Perro Andaluz! GRACIAS!

    If I could give this business a minus star I would. Finally after 5 days, I was able to speak to the "owner". There is no words to describe the feeling knowing that your dog was mistreated, but what makes matters worse is the lack of customer service and the fact that this business took no responsibility at the beginning for the incident. I would've appreciated if the groomer or someone had said something about the incident instead of sending her home in this condition.

    I brought my cat here because they label themselves as a place fo exotic pets, very unprofessional and customer service is terrible. My Persian cat looked the same, only difference was she smelled nice. When I was holding her in the lobby I realized she had fleas and I let them know, all the workers came out and they guy who took her from me said she had fleas when we came in. She did not! Also when I called to see if she was ready or not because it was taking too long, I hear somebody said 'why is she calling' honestly this is a terrible place and now that I'm reading reviews I feel guilty for not reading them beforehand. I know lots of people come from San Diego to take their pets here but honestly go somewhere else. I am not one for writing reviews but these people shouldn't be handling pets when they have a don't care attitude, take you money somewhere else and get treated better!!

    Thank you Sergio for all your help with Duke! We received fantastic assistance with our Dukie trying to battle the dreaded "C", we know we came to the right place. From the moment we arrived we knew he was in the right hands and we are so grateful!

When I came home from work this past Friday, my dog would not stop rubbing her ears and was crying. I knew that I would not make it to her regular vet before closing time and the closest VEG (to my location) was the Mission Valley location so I loaded Molly in my car and we made the short drive to Mission Valley. The VEG Mission Valley location is just across the parking lot from Mimi's Cafe and was super easy to find. We walked in and someone immediately came over to triage Molly before it was the doctor's turn to give her a full exam. Dr. Bronstein was awesome and explained everything in great detail. While I was waiting for Molly's treatment plan, an emergency came in and it was all hands on deck to help the dog out. Everyone ran over to help and not one person working there complained. I could tell that they really care about animals. When the doctor was finished, he came over and apologized for the wait and I said not to worry about it since that was a priority issue. He gave me the treatment plan which I approved and it was just a short amount of time until I got the prescriptions and receipt/medical notes (for insurance) and I was out the door. I would like to give a special thanks to Dr. Bronstein and the staff that helped me this past Friday evening for your kindness and for helping my "little one" out. It meant the world to my wife and I (and Molly too!). I also wanted to thank you for the follow up text message yesterday inquiring about Molly. Your team is the best!

We made the call to VEG and they gave us excellent advice over the phone and the team greeted us at 4am. They were in the best of spirits even though we were a mess and our poor dog was seizing in pain. Dr.Day and the team were absolutely amazing!! They helped us remain calm and made a quick action plan. Everyone we interacted with was wonderful and the staff really makes VEG what it is! Thank you!! Ironically I've spent the past 5 years designing veterinary clinics and specialty hospitals, and the owners had a strong desire to maintain the separation from public facing to the treatment areas. I must say as someone experiencing having a pet emergency, being able to be in the open treatment area was the reason we felt so satisfied with the care. We were visually connected to our baby boy and got to be a part of every step of his treatments. It made us feel at ease, and felt entirely different (in the best way) than we've ever had at other veterinary practices. Design matters and can really make a huge impact- so props to the team for going with the open plan! I hope to see more of this in the future, transparency builds trust. Goodwork VEG!

The usual vet we go to was closing before we arrived. I found this place. I was iffy due to the 2.5 stars on Yelp. But it has 4.7 on Google so I decided to give it a try. Be aware they take time to respond to online messages or emails. For the quickest response, call them. I called in advance to let them know the situation and our ETA. We arrived at 12:15AM. The moment we walked through the door, they began triage immediately. Within 5 minutes, we knew what was wrong. Unfortunately, she did not recover. They were realistic with us, answered our questions, and treated her with dignity and respect. I could tell the situation wasn't easy for the staff either. They allowed us to spend time with her before, during, and after she took her last breath. It was super convenient that they also offered cremation and funeral services from a partner company. They offered three cremation options. Please read them. The cheapest one is a communal cremation. The other two are individual. We opted for the middle package. She passed on a Wednesday and by Friday she was ready to return home. You have the option to pick up either at the vet or directly with the funeral home. It's faster if you pick up directly from the funeral home. HOWEVER!!!!! I was in documented medical shock and managing a legal crisis when this was happening. Maple hadn't even been dead an hour when they were asking me to confirm all her final details. When I picked up her urn and death certificate, the information was WRONG. As a matter of basic empathy and professional decency, I expected them to correct the record for a medical support animal without charging me for my grief. But the funeral home refused so I suggest you don't use their cremation services. Also, the vet said they would email us a copy of the X-rays the same day. When we followed up with the receptionist she refused and claimed we needed to pay extra for that.

I completely understand that emergencies take priority, so the delays themselves were not the issue. The problem was the lack of communication. Each time the surgery was postponed, no one called to update me. I explained multiple times that I live in the U.S. and needed timely updates so I could plan travel accordingly, but they still failed to communicate schedule changes. Instead, I had to call every two to three hours just to get information, and even then, nothing was communicated clearly. In the end, I picked my dog up without the surgery being performed and took him to another veterinary clinic that was far more professional and respectful of clients' time and schedules.

The location was close to us and they operate 24 hours, even during holiday weekends. We took in our dog, nearing midnight and without an appointment. The vet told us about the potential conditions she's dealing with, after stabilizing her. They suggested that she stay overnight for continued monitoring. This caused us great worry, due to the rapid decline of her health and the expense we would endure. Though it gave some relief as we were able to get some rest and hope for the best as they tend to her. The team over there were attentive and informative, providing constant contact with my my wife and I about any changes in health. Although we're now missing now a big part of our family, I can say this place really took great care in trying to give our dog a better quality of life. Thank you!

It's obvious they are all about revenue and do NOT advocate for your pet. I'm guessing they are awarded commission for every pet they can quickly extinguish, to make room for the moneymaking surgical patients in the waiting room. We paid $3,500 plus $500 for them to care for our very sick baby girl, and they left her to LITERALLY bleed to death in her cage. She came into this "hospital" at 5:00pm June 4. She was in shock. Barely alive. It came on suddenly and we had no idea what had happened. They started out good. They did fluid resuscitation and she came back. Her eyes were open. She was breathing easy. She had purposeful movement. We were grateful, we had hope. But then it became a nightmare. They suspected she had internal bleeding of some sort since she was extremely anemic. Or maybe cancer? They needed to do an abdominal ultrasound to correctly diagnose her..and start appropriate treatment. The remote radiologist that read her X-rays said an ultrasound would help to diagnose a "hazy" appearance across her abdomen. We were ready to give them more money! Just save our precious baby. And then we were told THEY HAVE NO IN-HOUSE ABILITY TO DO AN EMERGENCY ULTRASOUND. We were told it couldn't be done until after 3:00pm the next day. That's when a radiologist comes in everyday and does all the ultrasounds ordered. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! How did they pass accreditation for an emergency facility? It's criminal. Our companion, our best friend was bleeding somewhere and they thought it was ok to wait another 17 hours until an outside radiologist comes around. Well, it wasn't ok and she didn't make it. She was put into a cage surrounded by dogs. (She's terrified of them. She's an indoor cat her entire life). Had a plastic head cone put on. Loaded her up on barbiturates because they thought they saw "seizures".... And then forgot to give my grossly anemic baby any supplemental oxygen and IGNORED her dramatic drops in her labs. And also ignored her blood sugar of 345-450 and her very abnormal blood gas. It was obvious at 3:00am on June 5, that she needed a blood transfusion and immediate diagnostic intervention. Maybe even surgical intervention. But there is nothing on her chart that indicates the veterinarians in the hospital were notified. In fact, I'm not even sure there were any doctors in there during the night. I was at her bedside from 1:00am to about 2:30am and I never saw a doctor anywhere. In fact I never met the nurse or whoever it was that was taking "care" of her. I have a gut feeling there were mostly unlicensed staff running that facility. The charting is horrific and barely legible. She continued to lose blood somewhere. Her labs clearly showed she was dying, as they became progressively worse throughout the night. And no doctor came to help her. And the person caring for her thought it was a good idea to assess a patient in acute shock every 6 hours. Obviously they never touched her abdomen because when she finally crashed at 1000am, the doctor described her abdomen as distended, tight and painful. I guarantee this is NOT standard protocol. A patient this sick needed assessments every 1-2 hours. WE When the AM came, Dr Chen halfway assessed her and then messaged my son at 0800 with a positive report. "Her pupils are normal. She looks much better. She's ok to go see her veterinarian" Evidently she missed the labs that showed critically low levels of hemoglobin carrying cells. Which means she was laying there with a belly full of blood. And according to the other labs, every organ was struggling. Two hours later she goes into respiratory arrest and is DEAD. Every body, humans and animals need oxygen carrying cells so our organs don't suffer injury. She died from negligence, failure to diagnose her in a timely manner and incompetence. This place falsely represents itself. It is NOT a full service emergency facility. They do not have the in-house diagnostic equipment to rapidly diagnose and treat. They never did a urinalysis on her either, because they don't have a machine. "It needs to get sent out". A urinalysis is part of almost every initial workup. It is a very important diagnostic tool that is not too difficult to do...yet it can tell you a lot about almost every system. I have not stopped crying. It feels like a nightmare. We are all traumatized and still in shock. Shame on both VCA and Mars Inc. (Yes, the candy bar people own this chain of sh*tty animal hospitals) They have profits in the billions! Surely they can afford appropriate diagnostic equipment for their "emergency pet hospital." And maybe pay for some extra licensed personnel. From the reviews, it looks like they make it a habit of giving substandard care. What a shame. Save your pets lives and keep them away from here.
