I rarely leave negative reviews, but our experience at Animal Care Clinic was frustrating from…read morebeginning to end. We brought our senior cat, Huck, in because we had been battling fleas and ear mites for approximately three months. By the time of our appointment, we had finally gotten the flea problem under control, but the ear mites remained our primary concern. During the initial visit, we were told Huck needed a comprehensive senior exam, which cost approximately $600. We gladly paid because we wanted to make sure he received the care he needed. We were also informed that he required extensive dental work, estimated between $1,700 and $2,700. Fortunately, the final cost was on the lower end of that estimate, around $1,700. At the first appointment, we were assured that the medication prescribed would address both the flea and ear mite issues. Unfortunately, months later, we are still dealing with the ear problem. Communication throughout this process was consistently poor. Before appointments, no one provided helpful instructions such as whether we should avoid cleaning Huck's ears beforehand. For his dental procedure, we were told only that drop-off would be between 7:30 and 8:30 a.m. No one mentioned paperwork. When my boyfriend arrived, he was immediately handed paperwork and told it would take about 20 minutes to complete. Naturally, this caused unnecessary stress because he wasn't expecting it. In reality, it was only one page and took just a few minutes. At Huck's dental follow-up appointment, we arrived early by mistake, then returned shortly after our scheduled time. While waiting, one of the receptionists assisted us while actively eating and speaking with food in her mouth. This was not the first time we had experienced this behavior from staff and it came across as unprofessional. Although our appointment was scheduled for 10:30 a.m., Huck was not taken back until nearly 10:50. We requested to speak directly with the doctor because we still had concerns about his ears. After examining him, the doctor stated that his ears appeared darker than normal but was unsure whether the issue was ear mites, yeast, or something else. We were then told that microscopic testing could be performed--but it would cost an additional $103. At that point, I was extremely frustrated. We had already spent well over $2,000 between exams, treatment, and dental care, and the original issue that brought us in still had not been resolved. Being asked to spend even more money simply to determine what was going on felt unreasonable given the circumstances. While we were waiting, another customer was attempting to pick up medication for his pet after receiving a text notification. Staff appeared unable to locate the medication and repeatedly searched different locations while asking the customer the same questions. It reinforced the impression that the clinic was disorganized and lacking clear communication. My biggest concern is not the cost. Veterinary care is expensive, and I understand that. My concern is that we spent over $2,000, received repeated assurances that the treatment would address the problem, and yet the original issue remains unresolved. Combined with the poor communication, lack of preparation for appointments, long waits, and unprofessional interactions at the front desk, this experience left us feeling disappointed and frustrated. I sincerely hope the clinic improves its communication, organization, and follow-through with clients because pet owners deserve clear answers and confidence that their concerns are being addressed.

This place is extremely expensive, and I did not feel that the staff truly cared about my pet…read more On Friday, July 3, I brought my very sick kitty in for a scheduled appointment. Because his condition had worsened, I called and asked if I could come in earlier. The staff told me to arrive at 9:30 a.m. and said the doctor would be there shortly. Unfortunately, the veterinarian didn't arrive until around 10:30 a.m. During that time, my kitty was in obvious pain and was extremely cold. Once the doctor saw him, a staff member came in to discuss the treatment plan and estimated costs, which totaled over $2,000. I agreed without hesitation because I wanted to do everything possible to save my kitty. He was hospitalized for the day since the hospital would be closed on July 4. While I was paying the bill, I was told I would receive an update on my kitty within 10-20 minutes. Two hours passed with no call, so I called the hospital. I was placed on hold for 40 minutes. I called again later and was put on hold once more. After another 30 minutes, a staff member told me the veterinary technician caring for my kitty was very busy but would call me back within five minutes. That call never came. Around 8:00 p.m., I finally received a call telling me to come pick him up and that they would go over his test results and treatment plan. When I arrived, my kitty didn't look any better than when I had dropped him off. I was sent home with prescribed medications, which cost an additional $300. Tragically, my kitty passed away the very next day. I called the hospital to let them know he had passed and asked if I could return the unused medication for a refund. The manager I spoke with showed very little compassion. She simply told me that because the medication had been opened, they could not take it back and suggested I donate it to a shelter. I understand that not every pet can be saved, and I know medicine has its limits. What was most upsetting was the lack of communication, the long delays, and the lack of empathy during such a heartbreaking time. Throughout the day, I struggled just to get a simple update on my pet after being promised one. When I picked him up, I also noticed he had multiple needle pokes, and it broke my heart to see him like that. I understand that hospitalized animals often require IVs and blood draws, but seeing so many puncture sites made me wonder how difficult his experience had been. I spent nearly $3,000 because I believed my kitty would receive attentive, compassionate care. Instead, he passed away the following day, and I was left feeling unsupported during one of the most difficult experiences I've ever had. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this hospital.

We had a great experience at All Creatures Emergency Veterinary Hospital. Our dog was having severe…read morediarrhea and vomiting so we brought her in on a Sunday around 11pm When you arrive, you wait in your car and call them to let them know you're there. A staff member comes out with a form for you to fill out & then you wait in your car until they're ready to see your pet. The process was organized and it didn't take nearly as long as we expected. We were finished and heading home by around 1:30am! Our vet tech Bri & the veterinarian, Dr. Renee Case were both incredibly kind, knowledgeable & compassionate. They took great care of our dog, thoroughly explained everything and sent us home with medication to help her recover. If you ever need an emergency vet, I would definitely recommend All Creatures. They provided excellent care and we also found their pricing to be very reasonable especially for an after-hours emergency visit. I also love that they don't try to sell you on additional items as well. Here are some costs we paid: Exam fee: $150 Full blood work panel: $270 SNAP test: $80 SQ fluids: 82.60 Metronidazole liquid to take home: $58.02 Cerenia Injection: $54.62

It was after hours and my vet was going to be closed the following day but I had grown increasingly…read moreconcerned that my dog had a UTI. I did not want her in pain so I called All Creatures Emergency Vet and was told I didn't need an appointment, to just show up when I could. It was a 35 minute drive and when I arrived, the door was locked. I knocked but didn't see anyone. After a few minutes, another woman walked up and said "They do this. You gotta bang." She knocked on the door repeatedly until someone came outside. It took a few more minutes. We were put in a room immediately and proceeded to wait about an hour to be seen by the vet tech. To be fair, a dog that had been hit by car came in after we were in the room. From what we heard it was already deceased. Then, a woman brought in a her friend's dog she was supposed to be caring for and told the staff she wasn't sure if it was breathing. Based on what they said, that dog was also deceased. The vet tech was not very personable and she took our dogs temperature rectally but with zero skill and after what seemed like 5 minutes, was finally done. It was not a good experience. After we spoke to the tech, we asked for water for our dog, which was brought and waited another 15 min or so for the vet. Dr. Case took a look at our dog and I explained I was concerned about a UTI and gave her history of bladder stone removal and kidney issues. I also asked her to look at a bump on my dogs leg, since we were already there and at my dogs advanced age I am always worried about her cancer returning. The estimate for X-rays for that was well over $400 so I said I would have my regular vet do it on my next visit the following week. Without the x-rays for the bump, the estimate was $520 for the emergency exam, urinalysis, and medication if needed. We agreed and the vet tech came back in (I thought to get our dog for tests) and told us that we would need to pay up front before they would start the process. I have never experienced that before but we gave her a credit card to charge. Once she did that, she returned and took our dog back to extract urine. I went to the restroom shortly thereafter and there was a man at the desk with his dog. The same vet tech was giving him an estimate and, right in front of me said, "Don't worry, you can wait to pay until everything is done." Look, I get that this is Stockton and although I was surprised by the pay first attitude, I can't say I didn't understand. Every business has the right to decide if they want people to prepay or pay after, but to pick and chose with seemingly no reason or standard is totally unprofessional. Also, just a note, but if you read through most of the reviews, as I had time to do during my long wait, you will see that most of the 5 stars are from people whose animals were euthanized here and most of the 1 stars are from people who brought in their sick animals looking for help. Our dog was brought back promptly and we waited another hour before the vet returned. She said there was bacteria in my dogs urine and they gave us antibiotics but they did not have the correct dosage for my small dog so they gave me large pills (with no break line) and said to cut them in half myself and give them to my dog. Of course I was concerned that when I broke the pills, small pieces would scatter and she would not be getting the full dose which obviously happened. After the first few days we noticed that our dog was getting no relief from the antibiotics and scheduled the first available appointment with our regular vet. When she completed the full course, I emailed All Creatures Emergency Vet to confirm that they had found bacteria and ask if they tested to ensure they gave the correct antibiotics because it had not helped. It took them 3 days to respond. The response was that I should get a "urinalysis with culture and sensitivity sent to the laboratory...Or maybe there is no infection and she has cystitis." We saw our regular vet and she is now doing much better after weeks of being uncomfortable. Long story short: We spent 3 hours and over $500 for our dog not to feel better.
