Abbey Vet Hospital

Love Dr Shetty, My golden retriever was diagnosed with thyroid cancer 2 years ago. Doctor Shetty, Has kept my dog alive for 2 years now will be going on his 3rd year in July. Thank you so much doctor Shetty for taking care of us Read Less

Way overpriced, insisted our dog needed to be sedated to get her ear cleaned and wanted $475. Took her to Antioch Vet Hospital and got it done for $40 (and they kept her awake with no issues). Of all the times I've been at Abbey I've never seen a single other person or pet in their office. I had no issues with the tech (actually I liked her a lot), but I do not trust the vet himself. Will no longer be taking my pets there. Read Less

This man has absolutely no compassion for animals! I wont even call him Doctor. I walked into his office trying to get help for a dog wandering on 18 avenue, if you are familiar with Antioch you will know that it is a very busy four lane road where cars travel way over the posted speed limit of 40 miles per hour. This little dog was obviously well taken care of but would not come to me - i was just asking for someone to help me catch this dog before he got squished by a car. I'm sure he would be glad to treat the dog ( to the tune of thousands of dollars ) after it gets hit but wouldn't lift a finger to prevent it from happening. He said I AM NOT ANIMAL CONTROL. Very rude as he was to clau H. Told me " Do not bring your dog here".You are a veterinarian and should show some compassion for animals. He didn't seem to be all that busy just sitting at the receptionist desk when I walked in. I honestly do not know why people like that go into veterinary medicine ( must be the money ).I am in my mid fifty's and have had dogs since I was 5 yrs old. I have been going to the same veterinarian for thirty years. He has made mistakes but I do not hold that against him he is very good dr and outstanding compassionate man. He brought his own dogs into his office to give blood when my dog had surgery there ( if needed ).This shetty guy, A real piece of workIf you care about your pet DO NOT GO THERESteve H Read Less

Dr. Shetty has been our "vet-of-choice" for many years. He's known many of our dogs and cats on a first name basis for one reason or another. Recently, Dr. Shetty gave me a HUGE discount on surgery he performed on one of our precious cats, Oreo...Along with his personable bed side manner, Dr. Shetty currently has a receptionist/"everything-else-on-the-job" person named Desiree that has helped me tremendously with my extreme emotional state when I happen to lose a baby to the rainbow-bridge. Her special and caring words have helped me so many times, often so many days, after the loss of one of my pets. With Desiree, I honestly can call and talk to her, cry to her, or anything else -and she is always available and patient. Thank you Desiree and Dr. Shetty..for all you've done! (Also want to thank his previous receptionist-etc., Melissa, who was always very kind as well!) Read Less

Dr Shetty and his assistant were absolutely wonderful and caring during our time of sadness. Our dogs crossed over the rainbow bridge in the most humane and caring way. I would recommend this Veterinary office before any other.  God Bless. Read Less

I took my cat to Abbey Vet clinic for a teeth cleaning and blood work. After reviewing the blood work results, the doctor diagnosed a urinary tract infection. Also, during the teeth cleaning procedure, the doctor extracted two teeth from my cat's mouth. For this reason, the doctor prescribed two antibiotic bottles for $68 each 15 mL. bottle for the post teeth cleaning, tooth extractions, and for the urinary tract infection. Later,when I was in process of getting my pet back, paying all the fees to the office assistant, and checking if my cat was awake and responsive because of the anesthesia, I forgot to check if the medication that I just purchased was new and properly sealed. Instead, I was carefully listening all about the instructions on how the medication should be administrated to my cat. A couple of days later, when I finished the first antibiotic bottle, I noticed that the second and last antibiotic bottle was opened and tampered, and the bottle itself really looked dirty and old. I was surprised because the outside box looked nice and new., and as you can imagine, most of the small bottle liquid content was spilled inside the box. Then, I called to the office and the doctor himself answered. I explained the situation, as well as I explained that I was willing to come to his office to bring the old and sticky bottle for he to see. However, he even didn't let me finish  when he told me to forget about it, and told me not to dare to come to his office to return the opened bottle and to get a replacement. I was shocked about his  rudeness and I immediately thought that I was talking to a dishonest, evil, and cold vet doctor who didn't care if my cat was going to have the necessary amount of medication to recover. I must tell to every pet lover my unpleasant experience with this doctor, so you can consider about bringing your pet to this doctor who only cares about money. I think he over charged me not only for the procedure, but for the medication, injections, vaccinations, and etc., And on top of that he gave me a bottle of medication already used to treat other customers' pets. Finally, I think that he is very rude about treating and handling pets. Thank you. Read Less

Dr. Shetty has been our family vet since we moved to Oakley over 20 years ago. He has been a wonderful veterinarian for our many cats & dogs over the years & feels like a family friend. I don't believe he has ever overcharged us or ordered tests that weren't necessary & has been honest in telling us if our pets have needed to be put down, twice, because of poisoning. He loves & knows animals, is a kind & compassionate soul & is dedicated to his profession. A few times on his day off, because our animals always seem to become ill/injured on Saturday night or Sunday, he has driven from his home to meet us at his clinic to help our pet in an emergency & not charging an additional fee. He has worked with our budget & told us in order of importance what he would do if it was his pet. Our family will be with Dr. Sherry until he retires & we feel lucky to have found him. Read Less

My granddog, (standard poodle) just had surgery today. Dr. Shetty and his able assistant Melissa did an outstanding job. She had cysts I wanted to have removed. When I first visited to get Phoebe checked, Melissa noticed that her she had gum problems, too. I would never have noticed that. I felt the price was VERY fair, and their treatment of Phoebe was very caring and compassionate. THANK YOU, Dr. Shetty and Melissa. I now trust Phoebe in their care now. Please check them out.

Very professional and fair priced. Doctor saved my dog, he had a seizure. Doctor worked over time to help. And called to make sure my (family member) dog was fine after hours. I highly recommend this Vet. I give him five stars! Read Less

I have brought my pets here since I was a child. I have shopped around Abbey offers a quality health services and vaccinations. I bring my terrier mix and tabby here for their annual visits and vaccinations. The prices are the best in the area and Dr. Shetty never tries to trick you into spending more than what you are wanting for your pet. Dr Shetty is kind and always patient with my pets as well. I have never been here for a medical emergency but I have been here for my Terrier's ear infection caused by a foxtail, she was sedated and we experienced no complications. I would recommend Abbey to my friends and family. Read Less
