The staff is amazing doctors and vet techs. I have gone through kennel cough with my two oldest, along with surgery needs for my bullys palette and breathing issues. Hunter was our first vet tech, naturally good with our very anxious Jack. Also helped talk us through our questions as preparing for surgery is nerve wrecking. this is not the closest vet center but i do the drive because my babies are safe and happy there.

I can tell some…read moreof them are caring and hard working, but my dog is very stressed when she has to go back there. Even when drugged and exercised to her limits (which are many). It's sometimes a bit concerning when they take her back and don't take her treats, or when I know they didn't use them, so she'll probably always be afraid of the vet. But Dr. Ogino and Dr. Tong, at the least, have been great with her. She doesn't need a muzzle with them, and they've never suggested it, even though they aren't the first vets she saw. I can't remember the names of everyone at the front, but Rachael is a treasure when it comes to Trupanion insurance. Marissa has fought for us many times when they've tried to deny us coverage. Ani is super patient and gives us clear communication via text. I know there's another young girl who is always super friendly, and another women I've seen in both the front and the back that always greets my pup and has often calmed other clients as my pup practices her manners at the vet, because I really try hard to show her she doesn't need to be scared of the vet, but I understand not everyone is as great as the people I mentioned above.

    We can't say enough good things about Dr. Giles Willoughby. Our dog was facing a possible surgery,…read moreand we were incredibly stressed. From the very beginning, he was calm, patient, and reassuring. After a thorough evaluation, he recommended trying weight loss first before moving forward with surgery, which we really appreciated. He took the time to explain everything clearly and guided us through the next steps, giving us a plan that felt thoughtful and not rushed. It made a huge difference during such a nerve-wracking time. We're so grateful to have such a caring and knowledgeable vet. Highly recommend!

    I feel conflicted leaving this review as we have been clients with All Pets since 2011 and we have…read morehad a good relationship and general good quality of care. Unfortunately as of this week I am leaving this practice with my dogs. Long story short, I scheduled a follow up ultrasound for one of my dogs and when I paid that deposit and made the appointment I specifically asked that it be noted in her chart that to the extent possible not to shave her. The dog is a champion show dog and already registered for a specialty in europe in a few weeks, with flights already booked and now the thousands already spent is completely wasted. I have had dozens of ultrasounds done in the last 15 years, both echocardiograms to abdominal ultrasounds and this dog in particular just had an ultrasound in late december. This was a follow up ultrasound and the practice shaved her entire underside and half way up her flank. Her coat will not recover from this for months, possibly for the year. I spoke with the practice manager and was basically told the doctor found it necessary, which is fine. The vet very well may have thought it necessary, but since it directly contradicts the owner's request on her chart, I should have been contacted before that happened so that I could decide to cancel her ultrasound and take her to another practice or some other solution. In fact when I dropped her off in the morning for intake, I was specifically asked to leave my phone number in case I had to be contacted regarding the procedure. The hospital had my number, and decided to just proceed how they wanted to. Completely unacceptable.

    While the actual vet (Lily) is very caring and intelligent, the practices here are not good…read more There's an overreliance on technology and AI, and it's being leveraged in the worst fashion. For one, you cannot talk to anyone over the phone. But the worst part is, they pretend they're interpreting your pets results themselves and are actually using AI to do so. They're also creating a grey area by insisting the vet reviews the results first, but when I ask for "laymans terms" and you paste me something you pretend to write, yes I have a problem with that. When I asked, they admitted AI usage and then gaslighted me into believing it's only being used for "formatting". The only AI usage I ever agreed to was during a zoom call I agreed for AI based transcription of our conversation, that's all. I just don't understand why it's so hard to give an actual response that you wrote. I really wanted to like this vet but their time saving practices are grossly counterproductive and wildly inappropriate.

    This review is almost two years late. But when we still had our sweet chihuahua Mini, she was told…read moreby another vet that's she already almost 16, and there weren't a lot they could do. In my heart, some reasons, the words did not sound convincing. Decided to search for a vet that integrate alternatives medicine... we found Dr Chen. When we started working with Dr. Chen, she only had a room in her clinic. A small boutique vet clinic where mini walked around sniffed all the staff and we could be in her eye sight all the time. I do admit, I later did miss the intimate setting. Her clinic expanded more and more during our time with mini there. She got her chronic ear infection treated (in one treatment!) her gut issues and later her heart issue. There definitely has been hiccups here and there as the treatments were always smooth sailing but the staff really cared for mini. We got acupuncture herbal medicine nutrition support... she lived for another 2.5 years and the team were always gentle with her and really helped her. we don't have a dog at this time, but when we do, we will be going back to Dr Chen and the team!

Our boy had some spinal issues amongst other things as he got older, and Dr. Moeller was always honest when it came to his prognosis and also never pushed unnecessary treatment or medications. I was desperate at one point and asked about an arthritis treatment, and she explained why our pup wouldn't be a good candidate for it which I appreciated because it was a very costly medicine, and in the end she was right. When she did advocate for treatment, I followed her lead and I am glad I did because it helped our guy live his final days somewhat comfortable before we had to say the hardest goodbye. The prices are also extremely fair coming from another clinic in Hermosa beach that was very high compared to this practice. We now have a 6 month old puppy named Penny and we just recently saw Dr. Moeller for her first wellness visit. She was once again wonderful and Penny was so happy to meet her and the staff. We look forward to many healthy years at Pacific Coast Animal Hospital and we plan on bringing our kitty in here for care soon too. Also- the front desk staff, and the vet techs are wonderful, patient and caring. I appreciated how kind and helpful they were with Jax and now our Penny girl. You will not be disappointed with any of the Drs here- they are all wonderful and will provide your pet with the best possible care.

My pup was dealing with a skin allergy, and Dr. Moeller addressed the issue right away with a clear and reasonable plan. Just a week later, she was back to her normal self. We also came in another time for Kiki's annual shots, and the tech made the visit smooth and stress-free. I'm so glad Kiki has found a great new vet in our neighborhood. Note that there's two designated parking spots out front for patients.

    Definitely a much better experience this time around. Last Sunday, our dog had an episode and our…read moreregular vet was closed, so we decided to give this place another try. The difference was night and day--literally. There were significantly more staff members during the day compared to after-hours, which made a huge impact. Patients were seen and treated quickly, and the overall process felt much more organized. We were in and out within an hour, which was a huge relief given the situation.

    First of all this place is extremely overpriced. I know that, but I continued to go there because I…read moremistakenly assumed that overpriced meant it was higher quality. I was willing to accept high prices because I care about my dogs. Today, I went to get a simple nail trim and heartworm test to continue our flea and heartworm medication. I paid for the dogs services took them home and when I got home, realized that two of my dogs nails were obviously cut below the quick. I was very concerned about this because the reason I pay $40 for a nail trim is so that they can be done right and no one mentioned to me that anything had happened. I called to ask if they had noticed if something had happened to my dog and was told yes that they'd cut it. It had bled. They stopped the bleeding and it should be OK which NOBODY told me when I checked out. When I told them that they should've said something and I'd like a discount for my service today (which was total over $500 by the way) they told me no. I will not be back to this place because honestly if you can't trust someone to do a nail trim or at least let you know when something went wrong. I would not trust them with bigger things.
