    I can't say enough good things about UrbanVet and the incredible care they gave my dog, Rufio. He was diagnosed with aggressive thyroid cancer with four masses pressing against his trachea. Thanks to Dr. Raj's exceptional skill, the masses were cleanly removed, and Rufio has made a full recovery he is now cancer-free. Both Dr. Raj and Dr. Hersh are incredibly skilled and compassionate, and the entire staff is kind, attentive, and truly caring. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and supported. A special shout-out to Anahid, who made such a difference in our experience. Rufio can be nervous, but she handled him with so much patience and care that he immediately felt comfortable. She took the time to explain everything clearly, which really put my mind at ease. I've received nothing but amazing care at UrbanVet over the past three years. If you're looking for a veterinary team that truly treats your pet like their own, I highly recommend UrbanVet, Rufio and I are so grateful we found them.

    I live in Los Angeles with my cat, so Newport Beach is a bit of a drive--but it's absolutely worth it for the amazing care Dr. Raj and Dr. Hersh provide. Everyone at the clinic is kind, attentive, and genuinely cares about their pet patients. Their communication and follow-up are always excellent, which gives me so much peace of mind. I can't recommend this clinic enough and will definitely be back when my cat is due for his next check-up!

    This is the picture the team sent me after his surgery. Had his own bed and room to make sure he didn't feel anxious in the kennel.

    I can't begin to explain how positive our experience was at Urban Vet. My dog went in for a neuter surgery and I was SO anxious. They were so loving and communicative the ENTIRE day without me even asking for check ins. The doctor called me right after the surgery to let me know how it went. They went above and sent pictures of my pet and made sure he was comfortable while I was stuck at work. They really made me feel like my pet was a part of their family just as they are mine. Truly loved the team at Urban Vet.

    Roo

    We have been patients of UrbanVet-Newport Beach for some time now. They have treated our dog babies through regular appointments, elder health care management and some injuries. They have restored our Kanga's health from pain and decline to a more healthy and youthful dog living a joyful life. Always, the staff is amazing. Calls are promptly returned and we are given the royal treatment as we see other pets and pet owners receive as well. I appreciate that my dogs have seen all the doctors in the practice and they make sure they know the pet's condition when they are seeing the pet. Last week, my daughter brought in her 5 year old Rottweiller Roo who was exhibiting shoulder pain at home. When she got to UrbanVet-Newport Beach Roo was so excited to see her friends(the staff) that her limping vanished. Thankfully, they took my daughter's word for it they had her xrayed. The doctors at UrbanVets had a follow up CT scan that showed what they feared. Osteosarcoma in her shoulder. A devastating and deadly diagnosis to be sure. Due to UrbanVet-Newport Beach's due diligence, the osteosarcoma was diagnosed early. They screened for potential metastasis as well. This is huge given how lethal of a diagnosis this is for dogs. We scheduled an amputation for five days later as this is the primary course of treatment for this diagnosis. Fortunately, UrbanVet's created availability to reschedule her surgery to the Monday after the diagnosis. They devised a treatment/lifestyle plan to help our Roo live a healthy, happier life with state of the art treatments as well as a holistic approach. During her pre-surgery, surgery and post surgery UrbanVet was updating us along the way. Post op the next day they were checking in on her. Two days post surgery she is exceeding our post op expectations. She is not in obvious or excessive pain. She has begun to move about and yesterday got up with minor help. Of course Roo is taking baby steps, but considering what it could be... The office staff, techs and doctors are remarkable, from minor irritations to life-threatening conditions they are the veterinary practice for us.

    So glad that this Veternarian office opened so close to our home. Just one visit so far with our new pup but the office is clean and bright and the staff is amazing. Chip will like being treated here - they also give good treats!

    My kitties loved the "cat room."

    Amazing experience here yesterday June 9th. Everyone from the front office staff, Vet Technician & the Vet Dr. J. We were able to make a last minute same day appointment. Both my kitties needed to be seen & treated. We highly recommend this Vet for your furry babies. They are caring & patient.

    Gapi

    Urban Vet has been incredibly kind, supportive, and skilled in caring for my precious Gapi. As a senior citizen and first-time dog owner, I felt completely supported every step of the way. Gapi has severe allergies, and they found the right hydrolyzed food to help her thrive. During her Ovary Sparing Surgery, Dr. Hersh personally called me to explain unexpected findings and thoughtfully discussed our options with care and clarity. They are always patient with my many questions and concerns. I am so grateful for this compassionate team--they are truly the best.

    Everyone is so friendly and it is so convenient. The service is very quick and reasonable. We love this place and so do our dogs.

    One of the texts they sent during his recovery.

    We decided to switch from a previous provider to Urbanvet for our dog's neuter surgery and I was instantly impressed with everything when I first walked in the door. Clean and cozy facility. Friendly and knowledgeable front desk staff. The technician was nice and the doctor was patient with all my questions prior to the surgery. As a new patient, I was ready to nitpick everything, especially given my bad experience with our previous vet, but I was just overall pleased with the services here. The staff sent text updates throughout the process while I was at work, which is such a nice and thoughtful touch. I'm glad we decided to come here :)

    First puppy visit for Baloo! Great team here, thank you!!

    5 star service. Welcoming staff. Professional doctors. Affordable pricing. I couldn't be happier with how they took care of my Cat for dental surgery. Highly recommended

    Francesca M.

    This was my first vet experience with my new puppy and the girls at the front were amazing. They all greeted Ralphie with kisses and love and immediately made him and me feel comfortable. They answered all of my questions and made sure I left with all of the information I needed to raise my pup. The vet himself was also knowledgeable and made sure I had all the info I needed and felt okay with any concerns.

    See all

    It was only RICO's fifth car ride, plus, he also flew once on an airplane. This time was different…read more He was meowing and scared the whole way to Newport-Mesa, even more so than on the plane. He wouldn't shut up and, because he was sick, he probably thought I was going to get rid of him. He'd been throwing up a lot for a few days and kept contracting his stomach, rhythmically, about once every second, and breathing heavily, which could have been something very serious. I was just as worried as him. It was his first time being sick and his first time leaving home. No cat likes to go to the vet. Thankfully, he doesn't know about neutering nor taking shots, at least not just yet. I like taking Fireball and Tequila shots, but that's different. Notwithstanding, there is zero difference between a woman's psychology and a cat's, so it's important to be careful with them and get them to think that everything is their idea, which they did. They all seemed like genuinely caring people, which means a lot for a cat, as they can be skittish. Dr. Terry, Natalia and Kaylee were all very professional and gentle with RICO. I think they probably took a bit extra time with him, in order to pet him and enjoy his company, which he seemed to like. Who could blame them? He's the best cat ever! I taught him everything he knows. He normally follows me around everywhere I go, until he felt sick. Now that he's feeling better, he does so again. We were both worried, but Dr. Terry had a very compassionate bedside manner and made us both feel comfortably. On his way back home, RICO told me that he was happy and was seemingly already feeling better, because he didn't meow like a scaredy-cat, not once. He did wet himself inside of his carrier, but that's just because he couldn't hold it any longer. They went above and beyond: I received a text message late last night, well after business hours, from someone who wanted to make sure RICO was doing better. That or they just really liked him. Thankfully, he's back to his normal self, with no more throwing up and no more contractions. RICO told me to tell Natalia that he wishes he could have said goodbye and he wouldn't mind seeing her again. Other than that, it was a flawless trip to the vet. RICO is very appreciative that he feels all better. I research everything, due-diligently. It was no surprise to me that Newport-Mesa Animal Hospital took great care of RICO. Thank you!

My two senior dogs, Roux (almost 15 and unable to walk) and Cloud is 13 ( who's not the easiest with people), both receive the most loving, expert care here--and I wouldn't trust anyone else with them. From the front desk to the exam room, the care and compassion they show is unmatched. Dr. Keating is by far the best vet I've ever encountered. Her calm, kind presence is something you feel the moment she walks in. She listens to every concern, answers every question, and always finds thoughtful solutions. Roux is nearly 15 and can't walk, and Dr. Keating handles him with such tenderness and respect. Cloud can be difficult around people, but this is the only vet clinic where she feels safe and is treated with gentle care. Her calm energy is something you simply can't teach; she is truly one of a kind. If I could give her 10 stars, I would! Natalia the vet tech, is just as incredible. She's warm, patient, and takes her time making sure my dogs feel comfortable and cared for. I truly enjoy seeing her each visit. I love seeing her and knowing my dogs are in such kind and capable hands. And huge thanks to Serena and Edward at the front desk----they're always quick to respond to my messages about appointments, medications or any concerns I have. They make every interaction smooth and stress-free. They are so friendly and helpful every time I come in. I wholeheartedly recommend Newport Mesa Animal Hospital to all my friends and family. The entire team goes above and beyond, and I truly wouldn't take my dogs anywhere else. They treat my pets like family--and that means the world to me. Thank you all for the love and care you give Roux and Cloud!

They are extremely anxious, easily spooked, and previous experiences unfortunately only made that anxiety worse. At our last clinic we had reached the highest doses of their anxiety medications and even with me present, appointments were still extremely stressful. Hope would freeze, vocalize, and at some point I started believing that was just normal for him. Modern Animal completely changed that experience. Hope was unsure at first, but the calm environment, the patience, and the care from the team made such a difference. Dr. Mursa was incredible. She listened to all of my questions and reviewed Hope's records thoroughly. What stood out most was that she brought up safer medication options considering his seizure history, something I had been trying to advocate for elsewhere for months. That level of attention and care meant more than I can explain. I also have to talk about my nurses Alyssa and Isai. Hope historically does not do well with men, yet Isai had him accepting treats, asking for pets, and showing the sweet personality I know he has underneath his anxiety. Alyssa did his blood draw so calmly and efficiently that for the first time I didn't saw him completely lose it, and it was over before he even realized. Both Alyssa and Isai were also incredibly thorough explaining his medications and follow-up care. Thank you all for making my baby feel safe, loved, and cared for. I never thought a vet visit could become something enjoyable for him, and seeing him leave wagging his tail instead of terrified meant everything to me. Me and Hope cannot recommend this team enough.

My 9-year-old pug has previously had a severe reaction to the rabies vaccine, which I explained multiple times. Despite this, they refused to give her Cytopoint allergy injection unless she also received the rabies vaccine. Considering she is an indoor pug with a documented vaccine reaction history, this felt very concerning and unnecessary. I also brought in another one of my dogs for Cytopoint, and they insisted on doing a skin scrape first, which added another $200 to the visit. They ultimately found nothing under the microscope. On top of that, they presented an iPad full of "treatment options" recommending over $1,000 worth of additional tests, medications, and procedures. It felt overwhelming and very sales-driven. After visiting our new vet last week, the difference was night and day. No pressure, no excessive treatment plans.. Just compassionate, straightforward care from people who genuinely seemed focused on helping my dogs rather than maximizing profit.
