We were having a hard time finding a good Vet in our area. I finally asked my friend who had a…read moreDachshund which I knew was very picky on who she would take her dog to. She highly recommended Dr Mendez and the Animal Care Hospital staff. We were very happy when we took our Labrador to see Dr Mendez. Dr Mendez is a very smart and caring Vet and her staff is equally as kind. Dr Mendez worked with us on all the areas of problems our dog had. She went the extra mile to study our dogs case talk with other experts when our dog was diagnosed with Cushings disease. Every issue our dog had was treated with a caring, correct course of action. When our dog was old and in pain Dr Mendez talked with us in a caring, detailed manner letting us make the decision to let her go. Dr Mendez and her excellent staff were so very kind and thoughtful with us as and shared our pain in euthanizing our beloved dog. I would recommend Dr Mendez and her great staff to anyone who wanted the top Veterinarian on the Central Coast of California.

The other vets are good also and staff is always friendly and efficient. I wouldn't go anyplace else!

I took my 2 year old Golden in to see Dr. Kuesis for her annual exam this week. This is the 3rd dog…read moreI have owned under Dr. Kuesis care at La Cumbre Pet Hospital. She is an excellent, knowledgeable vet who is very compassionate and gentle with my dog. I really appreciate her giving me different options, not all that I necessarily follow, but allows me to makeup my own mind with all the facts. The tech and office staff are always helpful and cheerful as well.

In response to the owner…read more Your response is disappointing because it completely avoids taking accountability for what actually happened. Hazel did not present with a cough. She presented with difficulty breathing and gagging whenever she opened her mouth to bark or yawn, and that her bark was now non existent. Those were the symptoms I repeatedly reported. You state that medications were provided to keep her comfortable. She was sent home with an anti-nausea medication and an allergy medication. She was not sent home with pain medication or steroids despite the obvious discomfort she was in. So I'm not quite sure where the team "cared so deeply" during her exams or after. You also state that a specialty referral was recommended. That is not what happened. After the test results, Dr. Keusis called me and said Hazel's results were "just leaning towards old age like she'd previously noted". It was then 5 days later only after I expressed how disappointed I was with the lack of recommendations, lack of urgency, and complete lack of follow through, and told Dr. Keusis I was taking Hazel to an internal medicine specialist myself, that a referral was finally offered. I was left to figure out on my own what my next steps should be while my dog continued struggling with her symptoms, and continued to get worse. If laryngeal paralysis was being evaluated, why was Hazel's airway obstruction not identified? If visualization of her larynx was limited, why was I never informed of that? If her airway could not be adequately assessed, why wasn't an immediate referral recommended instead of reassuring me she was "just leaning towards old age" like she'd said? When the internal specialist said the swelling was "obvious". Rather than acknowledging where your care and communication fell short, your response rewrites the timeline to make it appear as though everything appropriate was done from the beginning. It wasn't. I wasn't expecting perfection. I was expecting my concerns to be taken seriously, my dog to be advocated for, and appropriate recommendations to be made without me having to push for them myself. Even now, instead of acknowledging that your team let both Hazel and me down, you've chosen to defend your actions and misrepresent what actually occurred. That lack of accountability is exactly why I wrote the review

I asked my dog trainers at K-9 Solutions for a veterinarian recommendation, and they suggested…read moreSaint Francis Pet Clinic, mentioning that they all use them. Based on that, we decided to make the switch--and I'm very glad we did. We've had several visits so far, and every experience has been excellent. The facility is clean, organized, and well maintained, with a comfortable waiting area and spotless exam rooms. The doctors are professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. The office staff are just as impressive--friendly, efficient, and very knowledgeable. One moment that really stood out to me was when I ordered heartworm medication online after picking some up in the office. When they received the prescription, they personally called me to confirm the date of my dog's first dose to make sure I didn't give it too early. I've never experienced that level of attentiveness from a vet before, and it truly impressed me. I highly recommend Saint Francis Pet Clinic to anyone looking for a caring and professional veterinary team.

Dr. Pelton is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and takes every situation seriously. I like that he has a very direct, no-nonsense approach. He is never one to sugarcoat things. He is logical, straightforward, and focused. The receptionists, veterinary assistants, and the entire staff have always been incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. I especially appreciate that Dr. Pelton doesn't make decisions based on emotion or guesswork. He approaches things logically, takes concerns seriously, and is very thorough in making sure nothing is overlooked. You can tell that he takes his job extremely seriously and is committed to doing what is best for his patients. I feel so fortunate to have found St. Francis Pet Clinic and a veterinarian I can trust completely with my sweet boy. I highly recommend Dr. Pelton and his entire team to anyone looking for a veterinarian who is knowledgeable, thorough, honest, and truly excellent at what he does!!!

I only had a simple question whether they accept walk-ins because if the answer was no, I didn't want to be placed on hold unnecessarily. I ended up waiting on hold for about five minutes, and when she finally returned to the phone, she told me they do not take walk-ins. Because of this, the entire call felt like a complete waste of my time. If I had simply been given a quick answer upfront, it would have taken less than a 30seconds. I value my time, and I expect basic courtesy and efficiency when contacting a business. So rude.

We love our lab too much to not have the best and we are so lucky to have such a great resource in Santa Barbara. Our lab has had excellent results and Dr Wright is a caring, very skilled surgeon. Dr Wright is a "traveling" surgeon here on the central coast, so he came to our regular vet clinic (SB Pet Hospital) and used the facility (for both surgeries). I really like this because our dog knows the clinic and the staff are excellent at taking care of him overnight and the surroundings are familiar to our dog. The first TPLO was 4 years ago and this month our dog blew out his other one. Both experiences have been excellent (not cheap- that's for sure) but well worth it to see our dog happy and healthy again.
