Fantastic Vet. My dog does not like vets at and they gave him treats to calm him and invited us back anytime to give him some positive experiences. They are honest and fair.

Our dog had major rear end pain. Vet gave us medication to reduce swelling and reduce pain. It worked fine. Unfortunately we were not informed that it could be a disc issue. So after he recovered back to normal. But a month later his disc slipped paralyzing his rear legs. We had to put him down. It would have been nice to be informed that that could happen or what we maybe could have done with medications or care to prevent or reduce the possibility of the paralysis. Read Less

Friendly staff, fair prices for the services they provide. However our veterinarian seems scared of our dog. It's frustrating for us because we just want a vet who won't look at the size of our dog and assume he's vicious or unpredictable. We have been continuing to use them as for the most part they're good to us, however if we are continually asked to muzzle our dog and sedate him every time we visit we will definitely be looking for someone else to care for our fur friend.

These people are so sweet and caring, they keep you calm when you're stressing about the health of your pet. They are always ready to take you in right away. I would never go anywhere else :)

We are very happy with the attention we receive when visiting Oceanside Animal Hospital. Over the years we have had a variety of health issues with our Westies and feel very confident with the recommendations and treatments provided. On a couple of occasions we have been referred to remarkable specialists that we would not otherwise have known about. Very accommodating, great communicators and very kind and gentle with their fur patients.Read Less

We have always been impressed by Oceanside Animal Hospital. We have seen various vets there over the years and our dogs have always received excellent care and attention. It's nice that the clinic always follows up by calling a few days after they've seen our dog to check on any developments, acceptance of the medication etc. Our dog is quite elderly now and I like that the vet is very practical and doesn't suggest "heroic" measures... she suggests we use a mild pain medication for his stiff hips rather than putting him through a bunch of stressful (for him) and expensive (for us) tests. Every vet we've met at Oceanside is very kind, gentle, patient, and a good listener. Read Less

My dog Jack and I have been going to Oceanside Animal Hospital since he was a baby and the care he receives is outstanding. He has been a special needs dog for most of his life and it is thanks to the wonderful staff at Oceanside that he is still here at the wonderful age of 10. For a Dalmatian with significant health concerns this is so heart warming. I highly recommend the staff at Oceanside Animal Hospital, especially Dr. Alicia Ashley, to anyone looking for a vet.
