Dr Bamford is a vet like no other - she's simply the best, and we are so fortunate to have her in our corner for over 20 years.

Best vets in our area! They have helped with emergencies and regular check ups for our menagerie…read morefor years!!

Our cat was seen by Dr. Varun Prabakhar for a routine vaccination and was taken into a separate…read moreroom for the procedure. When he was returned to my husband, we were told he might have a reaction for a few days. What followed was not a mild reaction. Our cat came home unable to stand, refusing food, clearly in severe pain, and urinating on himself. He had previously received the same vaccine without any side effects. We contacted the clinic immediately and were repeatedly told this was normal. It was not. After four days of watching our cat in agony with no improvement, we called again and were offered a visit with another veterinarian. At that appointment, we were reassured that everything was fine. The veterinarian manipulated his leg to demonstrate that nothing was wrong and even suggested unrelated care. Meanwhile, our cat continued to suffer. After about a month, he was still severely limping and in obvious pain. We called multiple times. When we were finally able to speak with someone, it was suggested that he may have had a pre-existing condition, which was absolutely not true. We then sought a second opinion. An X-ray immediately revealed a broken hip. We were asked whether he had experienced major trauma, such as being hit by a car. Our cat is strictly indoors and had no access to anything that could explain such an injury. Because of the delay, our cat endured prolonged pain, had to be confined for an extended period, and developed additional strain and arthritis in the other leg. We also incurred significant out-of-pocket expenses. We reported the case to the veterinary board. Afterward, Dr. Prabakhar called my husband expressing concern about the situation and potential consequences. The difference between what we were repeatedly told and what was ultimately discovered is devastating. Our concerns were consistently dismissed while our cat was suffering. Based on this experience, we strongly warn other pet owners not to trust this clinic with serious medical concerns and to seek immediate independent opinions.

I can't say enough good things about this clinic. We've brought two of our dogs here for their full…read moresets of vaccinations (and it was easy to get copies of their vaccines ). We also recently used their cremation services for three of our beloved pups. Every single experience has been handled with such care, professionalism, and compassion. The staff are gentle, understanding, and genuinely love animals -- you can feel it from the moment you walk in. They made the hardest moments a little easier and the routine visits stress-free. I'm so grateful to have found a clinic I can fully trust with both the happy and the heartbreaking parts of pet care. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and affordable veterinary team.

There was a line today upon checking in, however, it sped along well. This review is once again, for their vaccine services. I have not encountered an issue for these services. Thankfully, I haven't had the need to utilize the medical services for my pets, so I can't comment on that part. With that being said, vaccine wait time is a breeze once you are in the system, the techs are very nice toward my pets and pretty quick at administering the vaccines. They give you your vaccine receipt after the shots are given with post care instructions printed out. Thank you!

The girls at the front desk went above and beyond by squeezing my little guy in at the very end of the day on one of their busiest days before the Fourth of July holiday. I know they were extremely busy, but they still made time for us, and I'm so grateful. My little pup decided to do some "parkour" off the furniture after the midweek fireworks scared him, and he suddenly became completely non-weight-bearing on his back leg.Dr. Oh was absolutely amazing. He wasted no time getting X-rays, quickly diagnosed a hairline fracture, and thoroughly explained everything to me. Thankfully, surgery wasn't necessary, and we have a treatment plan to help him heal. Every single person we encountered showed genuine care, kindness, and compassion not just for my dog, but for me as a worried pet parent. The clinic itself is adorable too! I loved all the cute pet photos decorating the office and wish I had taken more pictures because it has such a welcoming atmosphere. Thank you, Dr. Oh and the entire Van Nuys Vet Clinic team, for taking such great care of my little guy. We truly appreciate everything you did and couldn't have asked for a better experience during such a stressful day.

We had an excellent experience at The PAW Center! The staff was incredibly kind, compassionate, and…read moreprofessional from the moment we walked in. The hospital was spotless, well-organized, and you could tell they genuinely care about both the animals and their owners. One thing that really stood out was how affordable their care was without sacrificing quality. They took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of our questions, and treated our pet with so much love and attention. It's not always easy to find a veterinary hospital that combines exceptional care, fair pricing, and a clean, welcoming environment, but The PAW Center does exactly that. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy veterinary care. Thank you for taking such great care of our family!

Update: We took bozo to VCA last night - they had no problem handling him, and in fact, the VCA Vet…read morewas actually holding him in her arms. He had to be euthanized because of advanced and severe Calicivirus - his entire mouth and tongue were ulcerated and he was in an enormous amount of pain. An enormous amount of pain that lasted for two days longer than it had to because of the actions of PAW center. Today we took in a community cat named Bozo for treatment. He's lived at our apartment complex for over 10 years and have cared for him the entire time. We built shelters for him, fed him every day, and made sure he was safe. For the last three days Bozo hasn't eaten or had any water. He was drooling heavily, his face was swollen, his tongue was hanging out, and he was obviously in severe mouth pain. Before they took him to the back, I explained that Bozo is friendly with people he knows but terrified of strangers, especially when he's hurting. I even marked "caution" on the intake form. They took him away without letting either of us go with him, which I personally don't like. I think how a clinic handles an animal says a lot. When we were finally brought into a room, the woman who came in (I'm assuming from other reviews this was Dr. McCray, though she never introduced herself) immediately said they were sending us home with oral antibiotics and gabapentin because Bozo had used up his "kitty minutes." I've honestly never heard that term before. We explained that Bozo is a community cat who lives in a parking garage and hasn't eaten or drank anything in three days. Giving oral medication to an outdoor cat in that condition is not realistic. I've fostered medical cases for years and have no problem medicating cats in a home, but this is completely different. I asked what his diagnosis actually was. Was it an abscessed tooth? Stomatitis? Something else? She couldn't answer because they never actually examined his mouth beyond catching a quick glimpse when he hissed. We explained that if it's a bad tooth, antibiotics aren't going to fix the problem. We also explained that we couldn't afford a $1,400 dental. Four different people scraped together enough money just to bring him in because we honestly thought we might have to make the heartbreaking decision to euthanize him. Instead, we were told they wouldn't euthanize him because he was "bright and alert." He absolutely was not. He was dehydrated, in obvious pain, and hadn't eaten or drank for three days. So we tried asking for literally anything else that could help. Could they give him subcutaneous fluids? No. He was out of "kitty minutes." Could they give him a long-acting antibiotic injection? No. Out of "kitty minutes." Could they sedate him so they could safely treat him? No. Out of "kitty minutes." At that point I was beyond frustrated. I pointed out that they're veterinary professionals with training and equipment for handling difficult cats. Their response was basically that if I could inject him, then I should be able to give oral medication too--which completely ignores the reality of trying to catch and medicate a sick, scared community cat outdoors. Then we were told if we didn't like their plan, they could simply waive the exam fee and we'd leave with nothing. So we took the medications even though we know there's very little chance we'll actually be able to give them to him. Worse yet, now Bozo is frightened of us because of today's experience, making it even harder to help him. The whole thing was incredibly disappointing. A cat who was clearly suffering was denied even basic supportive care because he had supposedly run out of "kitty minutes." Instead of helping relieve his pain, we were sent home hoping for the impossible while he continues to suffer.
