I have had nothing but good luck here! They ain't cheap, but i don't cheap out when it comes to my fur potatoes! Since moving to Bishop four years ago, BVH has ministered to my two pugs, Gus and Stanley. Unfortunately. Gus had to be euthanized three years ago, and the staff handled that professionally and with consummate sensitivity. A couple of months later I adopted Stanley. BVH has looked after him since then. I have been very pleased with his care by BVH. Both the front office and medical staff have done outstanding work, and I trust them! I highly recommend them! read more

Been coming here since I moved to Bishop in 2018. Dr. Joel Figueroa is the best . He took exceptional care of my senior doxie TruMan during the last couple years of his life . He did everything he could to keep him going even though he had congestive heart failure. He even came to the house to help TruMan cross the rainbow bridge. It was his day off and he was headed to dinner and dropped everything to come. He's very kind and compassionate and I trust him with all my dogs . Forester my puppy has been his patient since he was 8 weeks old . I appreciate all he does and how loving he is with all three of my pups . I highly recommend Joel . read more

I can't begin to say enough good things about Bishop Vet. With multiple doctors on staff, and an after hours call in service, they are available 24/7. I've taken both of my German Short Hairs there for years. A special shout out to Jenah, Meadow, and all the front desk staff who handle an extreme amount of calls from concerned owners. I love Bishop Vet! read more

They take care of business best Vet in town, I have had my pets there for boarding and care. No problems at all. They have a clinic in Mammoth Lakes too where I go more often. Very good Vets. read more

You will wait a long time to see the vet, even if you have an appointment. Then the vet will not listen to your request, but draw his own conclusions based of whatever he thinks. This has happened to me with two vets at this place. It is extremely busy and the staff is not that friendly or organized. The office, patient rooms, and bathroom are disgustingly dirty. Although we still have a mask mandate, none of the staff wear masks. All the people patients I saw wore masks (and wisely so). It made me think they must disregard other health laws they think are "ridiculous." Do not bring your pet here. You will not get quality care. read more

This place is amazing! Thank you for everything! Dr was super informative, compassionate and eager to help.

September 3 2022 Grouch was attacked by a dog. Bishop vet is 2 hours away and the closest to me. This happened very early morning when it was still dark outside, so while trying to find someone to drive me there , we were able to stop the bleeding and Grouch was in a position where he was able to breath okay. I called first letting them know I was on my way. They said ok they were open and bring him in. So I brought him there. Upon arriving they brought him straight to the back and said they would do xrays and would call me in a few hours. I stayed in the area. Dr. K called me several hours later and discussed Grouchs arthritis and heart murmur which I already was aware of. My concern were the injuries. She mentioned that he would need surgery because she didn't know if he was bleeding internally. That it would be risky because of the murmur. With no surgery he would die so should she just euthanize him. I was adamant that he have the surgery. At least there would be a chance. I went back to the office immediately and they told me that even with a 650 deposit Dr.Milaci , one of the owners told them on the telephone twice that even with that they wouldn't do the surgery. I was told to wait so they could put an estimate together. Meanwhile Dr. K was going into all the rooms filled with other patients. After 2 hours of waiting for the estimate I started getting upset so they let me go in the back to see Grouch. It was now hours that Grouch had been there Unprofessional, unethical and cruelty is what they're about. Grouch was just laying there Bleeding and now difficulty breathing. No IV, wounds still open, no surgery NOTHING!! They gave him a pain shot and did xrays in the morningwhen he arrived. That was it. I began to make a scene and video tape. Then everyone was listening and called the owner. After speaking with this selfish, money hungry lady she agreed to the surgery with the deposit but said when and if grouch is ready to go home, I wouldn't be able to pick him up until balance for the surgery was paid in full. OK. Still no estimate on anything. At this time people were calling in donations in which I was told the girls in the front were really rude. I asked to see Grouch again before leaving but Susie in the front said no because she said he was already he was already in surgery. Don't know how because the only Dr there was running around still seeing other patients. I figured maybe they were prepping him. Upon getting home 3 hours later I phoned the vet to see how the surgery went. I told her I figured she couldn't reach me because sometimes there's no reception. She said no, she hadn't tried calling me yet but Grouch died. Then mentioned his leg was mangled and the entire day after she read the x-rays never mentioned that. I called the vets office on Tuesday when the office reopened asking where my estimate was. Still no bill or estimate. Then she emails me a bill for 535 for pain meds. x-rays, visit and cleaning of wound ( supposedly). I called back and said I gave 650 and where's the invoice for the surgery. Then I received another bill with the remaining 115 payment and invoice for additional 460 for pain meds, IV, anesthesia and for closing laceration. No surgery !!! Not even any of the donations phoned in were added into the invoice. When I left there at 430 pm no IV, no lacerations fixed and no surgery but anesthesia is on the bill. Also no record of the donations called in. I left a msg. for the other owner and still no call back. Finally on Wed I received a call from the other owner Dr. Ludwick. It didn't go well because the conversation started with him saying he knows what happened and I'm not to say anything negative to him about his staff or vets because he will get angry. That made me even more agitated. I went back with him yeah well what about me, I'm already angry you're staff let my dog sit there 7 to 8 hours untreated. He said the vet suggested euthanasia but I rejected it. Yeah I did, try to save him. So that gives them the right to let him lay there untreated making his condition worse and not doing a thing. His excuse was they were packed and he's low on staff. There were 3 receptionists there, about 6 techs and 1 Dr. My answer was you only put 1 vet on to do everything and should of sent away the regular exams so the vet could handle the emergencies. He didn't like that I was negative towards his workers and told me to look for other options for a vet. He said he cant change anything because grouch is gone. My reply was I wouldn't use them for anything anymore and not to think this is over. That I am going after them and that they are unethical, unprofessional, cruel to animals and money hungry vultures and hung up on him. He the owner admitted that they were overloaded and understaffed. Then why put only 1 vet on and overbook. It's only about the money now since they've expanded. read more

Sierra Sunsets - Grouch laying at bishop animal hospital without being treated for hours - Pet Cremation Services Near Me - Bishop, California

Wanted to get a stray cat spayed and off the street, but they don't accept "new patients." Because if I had been there before I wouldn't have Covid, right?! It's ridiculous, I don't recommend this vet to anyone who wants to do the right thing for an animal. read more

They are a lawsuit waiting to happen. If you need a reliable office to give you life changing results, or make sure you really get them....don't come here. If you want someone to fight for your dying dog, don't come here too. It's been 5days of requesting results I saw in person....I'm still waiting on broken promises. They'll think they did things but really they did 1 out of 3 things they said they'll do. Broken promises = broken trust = your job to micromanage and push for what you've paid for. This bad star this whole situation. They said they can't give me the x-ray and ultrasound but yes to my vet. But by laws, my vet can NOT share other vet reporting info to me or other vets. Why are they withholding paid for results? They can mail it, or email it but didn't. I called back and forth to all vets to double check, and they have not received even after a staff mentioned their WiFi and email system has been working. After 3-4days of patiently waiting, there was no waiting when at the ER!!! They hung up on me thinking I'm the problem? The ER even asked them for the info which they still have not received. I understand it takes time, but not 5 days!!! And for ER not hours later....they are strongholding the info. With the help other vets, our dog lasted a good happy 15days more with stopped bleeding with yunnan bai yao that was not offered to us here. Everything is hit miss to make her feel better. Quality of visitation was good and fine if you're not expecting the rest of the usual service. Like getting your tested positive for an infection results for a doctor to prescribe the correct medication. Other Services (Your dog's wellbeing): They don't care enough to figure out 1) how to prolong or make your dying dog comfortable, or else they would care to tell us the test results that tested positive for an infection that needs a different medication to fix vs a late call with voicemail with no info, AND 2) they don't care enough to figure how to get paid service results to you even after 2-3 calling times. Even after the calls, they can't figure it out, and EVEN if they have your local vet info, and can still fax AND have a post office. If they don't have your vet info, oooo wait for it....they won't ask you, they'll just not have it even though they said they'll fax over to them, and then later say they don't have the fax and still don't ask you lol We would have gotten the results via mail 2x faster that what they are servicing. This morning, I have still not received anything. My dog is dying, but that doesn't mean we still didn't pay hundreds of $$$ for results to better her last days with correct medicine vs incorrect medicine that was given. We say the images in person Saturday so we know it exist. If your dog has possible bleeding splenic mass/Liver and spleen for hemangiosarcoma......find an office that cares enough to give you more options. Surgery or death is not good enough. For a 15yr old dog, surgery is death or if alive, not a nice quality of life, or it could be same death timeline as if without surgery. There is no right answer. Who cares about making my dogs last breathes comfortable right?! Or giving her an extra day right? Wondering if that's what they think? We saw the x-ray, ultrasound in person 5days ago, Saturday. Results for culture sensitivities were supposed to be done Tuesday!!! I don't know who is at fault, but this office needs a better manager handling this. This is not the 1st time I've tried contacting them. I've emailed several times. It's a huge legal liability to have no internet for over 5days, or won't get us the info we paid for. They could have faxed it to our vet or mailed it to us. I even corrected them on their misspelling of our local vet's email the 1st time. I don't get it? There are several ways to get us the info if not by email.....voicemail, fax, mail? At least leave voicemail with the info? (My home LA vet does that, and follows up all the time). 1hr after talking to their staff and vet, and they messed up again. Again they get 1 out of 3 things that need to be done. I had to call my vet, then learned this office didn't fax it as they said they would an hour ago. Then the Mammoth vet says o I did xyz monday which was the 1 out of 3 things they did...what about all my previous emails, or my call an hr ago? They said their internet works this morning but I still haven't received anything...if it was working, why did their vet say it wasn't 1hr ago? Feels like I'm doing or teaching them how to do their job of passing on information to someone? Why do I have to micromanage? Wow 30min passed. My vet says there is no law they know of that doesn't allow them to not give me imaging results. Why is bishop hospital withholding my dogs x-ray and ultrasound? Hours later. ER need info but bishop says they fax it but the ER has still not received. My local vet also has not received anything until hours later today after 4 days. read more

I live in Ridgecrest and used to drive to Lancaster for the vet until I discovered BVS in Ridgecrest. I am very impressed by the care our dogs have received the last three years. The vets are very concerned about our dogs' health. The vet techs handle them with care. read more

UPDATE - after speaking with several vets back in Los Angeles, there is no question the inexperienced Dr. Lantz, misdiagnosed our dog and killed her. An easy Iv would have saved her life. Taylor Ludwick who said "it's hard to find good doctors in rural areas" charged our credit card today for killing Lily. - - Bishop Veterinary Hospital killed my dog. Dr. Emma Lantz said she chose not to administer the life saving IV because it would require around the clock care, but Bishop Veterinary Hospital does not actually have 24/7 staff and so she chose a quicker treatment instead. Co-Owner, Taylor P. Ludwick responded "it's hard to find good Doctors in a rural area." The sick irony is that while we were still grieving from the unexpected death of Lily, one of our other dogs, Snoopy came down with the same exact symptoms caused by a gastrointestinal infection that infected Lily only 48 hours earlier. This time, we knew to stay far away from the Bishop Veterinary Hospital and took Snoopy to Alpen Animal Hospital in Mammoth Lakes, CA instead. At Alpen, Dr. Teslaa rushed to Snoopy's aid within minutes of us calling and recognized the symptoms and knew an IV was needed immediately. After only a few hours of receiving a simple IV, Snoopy's life had been saved. Lily died because Dr. Lantz chose not to administer the IV. Please remember Lily if you're thinking time you about taking an animal to Bishop Veterinary Hospital. read more

So thankful for Bishop Veterinary Hospital seeing our pup during emergency hours! It wasn't exactly how we planned on spending our 4th of July with our chocolate Lab, Chance. The on-call doctor was very nice and helpful. We got our meds quick, our baby is feeling better and now we can enjoy the rest of our vacation :) Thanks again Chance read more

Best veterinarian hospital I have ever been to. They were great to my chocolate lab Sierra. Handled her with care.

I had been trying to adopt a cat from her owner. The cat was 14 but still healthy. I had fed her every morning. This vet confirmed to me that the owner brought her there, but since I am not the owner they would not tell me what happened to her there. When I came in showing pictures of the cat, they just shrugged. I later found out what happened, and that should have never been done to a healthy cat. Also, when I brought my cat in to be neutered and have his ear clipped to indicate he was neutered, they returned him to me as a bloody, disoriented mess, on a blooddy towel in his cage. They should have cleaned him up and delivered him to me on a clean towel in the cage. This place clearly does not care about animals. They only care about $$$$$. read more

I was traveling north on the 395 with my shih tzu Willow, who, turns out, doesn't like road trips. She was shaking and panting and showing so much anxiety. I knew I needed to see a veterinarian and get a prescription to calm her down on the rest of our road trip. Bishop Veterinary Hospital is the ONLY place in the area that would consider helping my dog. I know every vet clinic is slammed with patients, but I also recognize that this clinic came through with some compassion. They said I might have to wait 2 to 3 hours, which I gladly agreed to. Turns out I barely had to wait at all, the vet (I don't recall her name) examined my dog, wrote me a prescription, and even suggested I get a pill cutter to make sure I gave Willow the correct dosage. The rest of our road trip was much better for Willow and me. Thank you, Bishop Veterinary Hospital. read more

We were on a multi-day vacation of the Sierra Nevada/White Mountains and on day one at Lake Tahoe realized something was very wrong with our hound's eye. We took her to a local clinic there and she was seen and sent out with multiple medications for a cut cornea, with instructions to follow up with a re check in five days...by which time we would be at Grandview campground high up in the White Mountains. The day after the vet at Tahoe, an overlooked foxtail decided to show itself and we removed it easily. Anyone who lives in the country and has extensive experience with these monster plants knows, the vet missing these isn't their fault. It happens. These nasty grass awns can hide in the tenth dimension of space and time. We were just happy to get it gone (and the dog didn't miss it either). The eye was looking better but with something as serious as this in a good young hunting dog I wasn't about to risk corneal damage and ignore the advice to follow up at another vet...and that turned out to be Bishop Vet Hospital. Before we went up the mountain, we made an appointment and were pleasantly surprised to be able to receive one on the day we needed it. Where we live, vet appointments can extend out for weeks and if you need to be seen sooner it's necessary to pay more on an emergency/urgent care basis. They were very busy when we came in. The tech was on the phone with a dog who'd swallowed rat poison, the actual doctor was covering for a colleague who was out that day (short staffed), and another client was leaving whose pet had just been euthanized and the poor lady was very upset. In other words, a lot was going on. It was a very hot day outside and they were nice enough to let us bring all three of our Plott hounds into the clinic where it was air conditioned so we wouldn't have to keep our truck running. I've worked in vet med almost all my life, I'm retired. Both in clinics and for the vet school at UC Davis. What haven't I seen. This clinic is a mixed practice (Small and large animals) that obviously sees a lot of patients and my impression was, they are doing a great job, know their stuff, and are making a sincere effort to help everyone possible with a grounded approach to practicing medicine. I read a previous unfavorable review of the clinic and while my compassion extends to the person for their loss, there are certain realities about running a veterinary practice that aren't understood when emotions are running full tilt, such as the wisdom of running up a bill for thousands of dollars when the chances of a successful outcome weren't even on the solid side of 20% right after the initial injury. I bring this up not to criticize the other pet owner but because when my dog was seen by the doctor at Bishop Vet, I was presented with two options; what a lot of veterinarians would use as a management strategy at this stage of eye healing to continue treatment (pros and cons) versus continuing on with what we were already doing. The clear indication was, "a course of action that makes the most medical and financial good sense is this one over here"...because this is what it comes down to sometimes, I want the facts separated from my emotions toward my pet as her owner (the tendency to fuss and want to do everything possible) and that is what I was presented with here in an easy to understand manner; that tells me the doctor is looking out for my financial interests, guiding me toward decisions that don't subject my animal to needless treatment, and what's best all around -- that's the opposite of 'money hungry.' I would not hesitate to recommend this clinic to anyone; the fees were very fair for the services rendered and I have only positives to say about my experience during my visit. We were able to be on our way and return to our vacation easy peasy and are very grateful for how this all worked out! read more

Bishop veterinary hospital saved our goldendoodles life! We were passing Ridgecrest when we noticed our dog had eaten 35 pieces of gum with xylitol- this was a toxic and life threatening amount. We called at 1030 pm on the emergency line and we're advised to find the closest store with hydrogen peroxide, Walmart was about 18 miles back, so we rushed to get there before it closed at 11:00pm, we induced vomiting and got all of the gum out of his stomach. The vet still met us at 1:00am at the office to test and ensure he was not hypoglycemic or in liver failure. It was so easy to get help (we talked to the vet 4 times while freaking out!) , a quick visit in for reassurance. We owe everything to this vet!! So thankful read more

0 STARS .. ANIMALS DYING !!!!!! They let a dog lay there for several hours and die, This poor dog laid in pain because the lady only had $650 deposit , many people try to call and donate for the surgery, it was a big mess because they were so over booked the animals were suffering!! they lied to the lady and told her the dog was in surgery at one point not letting her see it the dog, It was a big lie the dog never got the surgery, the dog laid there on a table and suffered for hours on pain mEd's that were helping, this place should be shut down !!!! the receptionist is a bid ass liar, the vets are money hungry & over booked leaving Emergencies unseen !!!! The receptionist turned a blind eye to keep a job shame on her as well !!! shame on the owners who spoke to the lady on the phone like she was garbage,no empathy at all not sorry for your loss, the one started off the conversation with don't speak bad about my staff i will get angry WTF!!! a dog died and they could care less they have no business being an animal care, they're not here for the care they're in it for the money , Just disgusting !!!!!! read more

Thank you BVH for the many years and especially the life-saving job many of you that were involved in on my dog Lassen. That goes back 10+ years to Dr Tom Talbot, Craig London, and many others. I want to especially thank Dr Figueroa who took time off away from his family and friends on Christmas Eve after hours to remove my dog ... who is now in Heaven ... waiting to see me again ... out of the back seat of my car where he passed away with his head in my hand. God Bless you Dr. Thank you all !!! Peace and Blessings, Dave W. read more

This vet is money hungry and detached from the animals they're providing for, the only exception being doctor Ludwick. Don't go here if you're planning on using the CareCredits financing options because they only offer 6 months to pay it back, which they don't tell you. I'd rather drive to Reno or Lancaster for my pets care. read more

We were on a road trip and stopped in Bishop when our 10 year old Weimaraner Sophia developed an ear trauma with a very larger hematoma. Dr. Figueroa was amazing in his diagnosis of the situation and what was needed to do. We left her for surgery that very day. She did well, everything was explained to us in great detail and what the recovery period would be like. We have dealt with numerous Vets over the last 10 years and Dr. Figueroa rates a 10+.

I have wanted to write this review for months but was too emotional. Dr. Figueroa saved the life of my Rhodesian Ridgeback Tamba. It just doesn't get better than that. His professionalism and compassion were unparalleled. And then more recently, my puppy contracted a strange bacterial infection and the entire team at the Mammoth location went above and beyond, not just in terms of medical care but in terms of how he - and I - were treated. I disagree entirely with those who say you can't find good doctors in rural areas. The team at Bishop Vet is far better than ANY that I used in the Greater LA area, not just because of their skills, but because they are truly loving people. read more

While on vacation my pup got a fish hook stuck in his lip. I walked in with Ruger and his fresh lip piercing, 20 minutes before closing. The ladies in this office were awesome. Everyone was attentive, intelligent, and thoughtful. The Doctor (don't know her name but blonde lady I think I heard someone call her Dr Kay) was amazing. Explained everything, took care of my dog and I was out the door in 30 minutes. The cost was much lower then I expected. Both Ruger and I were very impressed. Thank you everyone at BVH, you guys were amazing. Now I could only wish fishermen would be as hard working and thoughtful as you all, and not leave there trash and hooks all over this beautiful area. Highly recommend this place for your furry family members. read more

We've appreciated the care of three of the vets; one other vet wasn't very good and she's already been named in other reviews--she doesn't work there anymore. I'm happy overall with the care by the vets, it's some of the office staff that may leave something to be desired. It's hit or miss whether you will get a rude person on the phone. They've been so rude in the past and it was surprising; instead of calling them to task I decided to believe they are stressed and having bad days. I have sent tokens of appreciation to the office. Turns out it doesn't matter. You'll still have long wait times where they disconnect the call after being on hold for 15 minutes. And they'll still hang up on you (ie you say goodbye and they just hang up). My animals are well-cared for by the vets once you can get to them (except by one vet), it's just a crap shoot whether or not staff will be rude at any given time. I hope whoever was rude and hung up is having a better day. read more

They even have specialist(s) that come in to their offices from time to time. Thank You all read more

DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOG HERE IN AN EMERGENCY. On thanksgiving evening my 3.5 pound dog became very ill with diarrhea and then with continuous vomiting. I called and the doctor on call, Dr. Lance, said to bring her right away. I made the decision to drive the 45 min to Bishop from Mammoth thinking that this animal hospital would be the best choice being a more populated area with a more advanced facility. MAJOR MISTAKE - FATAL FLAW ACTUALLY. Dr Lance did a full physical and xrays and made the decision to give my dog subcutaneous fluids and anti-vomit meds and send us on our way. Within and hour and a half my dog went into septic shock and we had to rush to Alpen Animal Hospital. It was too late and my little baby died in my arms. The vet at Alpen asked why she wasn't given IV fluids right away as this would have been the only option for a dog her size experiencing hours of vomit an diarrhea. a subcutaneous fluid injection takes time to absorb through the tissue - and time was not what my dog had to give, she needed the fluids direct to the bloodstream. We called Dr. Lance to ask why she made this decision and she said and i quote "we are not a 24 hour hospital and there would be no-one here to monitor her on an IV" ABSOLUTELY OURAGEOUS!!! she didnt give an IV bc no one could monitor??? Its not that hard, it would juat take her time. Cut to this morning when my other dog (6lb min pin) came down with the same exact symptoms of my recently deceased dog... diarrhea and continuous vomiting. PANIC!! The same thing was happening. I rushed my dog to Alpen and Dr TeSlaa got and IV with and antibiotic shot in him right away. He sat there with us for over 4 hours while my dogs little dehydrated body consumed the entire bag. Dr. TeSlaa saved my dogs life and I KNOW FOR A FACT that he would have saved my other dogs life to if I had only gone to him. Here is my question: Why is such a young, inexperienced doctor in charge after hours on a busy holiday weekend for Mammoth.. UNACCEPTABLE!!! This hospitals bad decision killed my dog!!! I REPEAT: DO NOT GO HERE.. CALL ALPEN FOR ALL EMERGENCIES IN MAMMOTH. Period. Contact me if you need any further info or advise. read more

Dr Milici saved our Dachshund's life last month during our vacation to the area and we were super impressed with the service we got from Bishop Vet Hospital. Our older dog had a reaction to the high elevation at Mammoth and I thought she was dying. I called the Vet phone line not expecting to get anyone to answer after hours, and within 1 minute I was speaking to Dr Milici on the phone. When I told her the symptoms, she said get to the hospital at 8 am when they open and they would see us. We got there when they opened, she took us right in, quickly diagnosed her with fluid in her lungs and said she needed to get on oxygen right away. We left her there for 24 hours on oxygen, and Doc got her on 3 meds to help her recover from the trauma of almost dying from not being able to breathe. The wait time to get thru on the phone when calling during the day is long, but when you speak to someone, they were always very helpful and got me the info I needed to make sure my baby was doing well and improving. The bill was very affordable for everything they did. I feel so lucky to have found this Vet on our road trip as my baby most likely would have died if we didn't get her care right away. Thank you again Dr Milici for saving Bella's life. She's doing great still and under cardiologist supervision now too. We will never forget you and the help you gave us! read more

Dr. Figueroa is absolutely the BEST vet I've ever met. He speaks to my dog, Princess. He speaks directly to her, calls her baby, tells her she's beautiful.

My pet went in for a grade 2 dental cleaning on 11/2 and euthanized 12/26. After his cleaning he never fully recovered his energy. Three weeks later he was diagnosed with kidney failure and given less than 6 mos to live. Healthy and happy at 6.5 yrs and 17lbs, I picked him up after his cleaning and he was bloated at about 20lbs. No one seemed at all concerned including me. I should have known something was wrong but not vet. It was assumed later he may have had kidney issues prior to cleaning.
