Dr. Cruz is the best! My Frenchie has gone through a rough start in breaking her leg as a puppy. And he has been of such great help to meet her needs. Always available 24/7 after and before her surgery to make sure everything went good. I very highly recommend him.

THIS MESSAGE IS FOR RAYMOND LAU.
SO RAYMOND....THIS VETERINARY CLINIC KILLED ONE OF YOUR CATS, ALMOST KILLED ANOTHER AND THE OWNER ALMOST KILLED YOUR DALMATIAN???
AND YOU'RE WILLING TO GIVE THIS HORRENDOUS PET HOSPITAL 5 STARS!!!!
WHY HAVE YOU CONTINUED TO GO THERE? NO NO NO!!!
THESE UNPROFESSIONALS DO NOT HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT TO GIVE YOUR CATS/DOGS ANYTHING....UNLESS THEY HAVE YOUR PERMISSION!!!!
WHATEVER THEY GAVE YOUR CAT IT HAD A NEGATIVE EFFECT AND KILLED HIM. SOUNDS LIKE THESE VETS AND THEIR STAFF DON'T KNOW WHAT THEIR DOING. IT'S A HIT OR MISS SITUATION THAT PUTS YOUR BELOVED PET'S LIFE AT RISK.
SAN FRANCISCO SMALL CLAIMS COURT, ANYONE CAN SUE UP TO $10,000.00 PER LAWSUIT. DON'T WAIT, THERE ARE TIME LIMITS. OR HIRE A GOOD LAWYER WITH PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE IN SUING AND WINNING CASES AGAINST BAD PET HOSPITALS AND VETS.
LEAVING YOUR CAT WET AND COLD IN A CAGE IS OUTRAGEOUS. THEY COULD HAVE DRIED YOUR CAT OR WRAPPED A TOWEL AROUND HIM/HER.
I HOPE THAT YOU DIDN'T PAY THEM ONE CENT. IMAGINE PAYING A PET HOSPITAL FOR KILLING YOUR BELOVED PET.
HERE'S A LIST OF VETERINARY HOSPITALS TO STAY AWAY FROM >SAN FRANCISCO VETERINARY SPECIALISTS - THEY CHARGE SOOOOO MUCH THAT YOU'D HAVE TO TAKE A LOAN OUT, OR PUT YOUR HOUSE UP FOR SALE!!!!!!
BELMONT PET HOSPITAL - PRETENTIOUS - EXPIRED MEDICATIONS - WHEN THEY SEE YA COMING....THEY SEE DOLLAR SIGNS $$$$.
THAT FAIRLY NEW EMERGENCY PET HOSPITAL IN DALY CITY, WHERE THAT BIG PAINT STORE USED TO BE, RIGHT OFF OF JUNIPERO SIERRA BLVD. - EXPENSIVE, PETS DIE THERE, SNOTTY STAFF, INEXPERIENCED VETS, LIARS!!!!
I'D LIKE TO PUT THEM OUT OF BUSINESS.
RESTANI FATIMA PET HOSPITAL, DALY CITY NEAR THE DALY CITY POLICE STATION. RESTANI IS NOT HIS REAL NAME, HE CLAIMS TO BE ITALIAN BUT HE'S EAST INDIAN.
RESTANI IS THE NAME OF THE STREET WHERE HE ONCE LIVED. WATCH OUT FOR THIS MAN, HIS HANDS ARE ALWAYS FILTHY. HE KILLED MY CAT AND OWES ME $$$. HE WITHHELD MY CAT'S MEDICAL FILE AND WOULDN'T LET ME SEE IT.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS NIGHTMARE!!!!
LASTLY....DR. FALCIS RETIRED AND I READ HIS DAUGHTER RUNS HIS OLD VETERINARY CLINIC. ALL I KNOW IS THAT
DR. FALCIS WAS BIASED, HATEFUL AND REVENGEFUL.
REMEMBER....IF THE VET DOESN'T LIKE YOU, IT'S HIGHLY LIKELY HE WON'T LIKE YOUR PET. SOME PEOPLE BECOME VETS BECAUSE THEY LOVE ANIMALS AND SOME PEOPLE BECOME VETS BECAUSE THEY WANT TO MAKE A LOT OF MONEY!!!!
MR. LAU.... UNLESS YOU SIGNED AN AUTHORIZATION PAPER GIVING THIS COLMA PET HOSPITAL FULL REIGN OVER YOUR PET....THEN THEY DID NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO SEDATE YOUR CAT!!!
AND KILL HIM.
MY ADVICE... TAKE THEM TO COURT!!!
IF YOUR CAT ISN'T FEELING GOOD AND IT DOESNT SEEM LIKE AN EMERGENCY....BUY "THE NATURAL CAT" WRITTEN BY ANITRA FRAZIER OR FRASIER....A REALLY GOOD BOOK FOR MANY OF YOUR PET'S AILMENTS AND HOW TO TREAT THEM RIGHT AT HOME, INEXPENSIVE OLD FASHIONED REMEDIES.
FOR YOU PET OWNERS OUT THERE WITH DOGS, CATS, PUPPIES AND KITTENS THAT HAVE DIARRHEA.
IN A SMALL POT POUR "SPRING WATER" OR REGULAR WATER, ABOUT 1 CUP, BRING TO A BOIL, THEN ADD 1/2 CUP UNCOOKED REGULAR WHITE RICE, COOK LOW AND SLOW.
THE WATER WILL TURN THICKER AND MILKY. LET IT COOL.
GO TO ANY PHARMACY AND ASK FOR FREE PLASTIC DROPPER OR PLUNGER, OR BUY ONE AT ANY DRUG STORE.
RINSE IT OFF AND FILL WITH THE WARM RICE WATER. GIVE IT TO YOUR PET THREE TIMES A DAY, LITTLE AMOUNT FOR PUPPIES AND KITTENS, MORE FOR BIGGER PETS. MY GOD USE COMMON SENSE!!!
RICE = STARCH = FORMED POOP (STOOLS)
WHEN A HUMAN OR ANIMAL HAS DIARRHEA, THEY LOSE ELECTROLYTES.
I BUY INFANT ELECTROLYTES AT WALGREENS, CALLED PEDIALYTE...POUR THIS INTO YOUR PET'S CLEAN EMPTY WATER DISH.
**MAKE SURE THERE'S A CLEAN BOWL OF REAL WATER, JUST IN CASE YOUR PET DOESN'T DRINK THE PEDIALYTE.
PEOPLE CAN BENEFIT FROM THIS AS WELL.
I GIVE MY CATS SPRING WATER.....NOT MINERAL WATER.
MINERAL WATER HAS MICROSCOPIC MINERALS, LIKE LITTLE ROCKS THAT CAN CAUSE KIDNEY STONES,
IF YOUR BABY HAS DIARRHEA.... TAKE YOUR BABY TO HIS/HER PRIMARY CARE DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY.
DIARRHEA IS LOSS OF BODILY FLUIDS....SO DO NOT HESITATE GETTING HELP FOR YOUR BABY!!!!!

Loved the place. They where nice and definitely treated my dogs carefully. Helped with trimming and giving them their shots. One of my dogs was particularly squirmy so had to sedate him to help him but in the end my dog is happy and pain free. Pricing seems average compared to other places.

I have been bringing my cat with renal failure to Colma Animal Hospital several times over the past six months. It's easy to get appointments and the staff are very kind and caring. There is also very little waiting time before appointments. Dr Cruz takes the time needed for each appointment and always answers any questions I may have. He also makes an effort to explain every option of treatment available for me to make informed decisions about medicines or tests. He is a truly compassionate vet and always asks for news about my cat. It's overall been a great experience for me so far and I would definitely recommend this place.

By far, Dr. Cruz is the only person that was patient in answering my questions and able to help me with my aggressive cat. I've had my cat for several years and just recently, he started to lash out at me. His behavioral problems seemed to get worst. I was immediately shocked that they took me in right away last minute. Dr. Cruz listened to me and understood that I wanted to find a solution that didnt involve wasting money on countless tests. We started going down a list of possible solutions to help solve my cat's behavioral issues. I couldnt be more happier with the way Dr. Cruz helped me. This was my first time going to Colma Animal Hospital and I've decided to take ALL my animals here. No regrets!The office may look a little outdated but dont let that fool you. it's really about the the doctors and staff that work there.

I called for an appointment for my cats broken tooth that need its roots extracted. They said to bring my cat in in 25 minutes. Which is how long it takes for me to drive here. I got there. They said, "Out system is down so we can't fit you in anyways... so sorry about that." I said, "okay." And she continued to the next person. Meanwhile my cat is crying in pain during this conversation. They could have at least had the decency call me back to tell me to not come and waste my time.

I started bringing my pug Elvis to Dr. Cruz at Colma Animal Hospital a few weeks ago when I got him. I have had to bring him in more than once for different issues, and every time Dr. Cruz and their staff have been friendly, informative, and amazing with my little guy who can tend to get pretty nervous around anyone new. Dr. Cruz informed me of all charges that would be associated before he performed anything, and has been VERY reasonable with payments I've made. I called the hospital last week with a question about his eye, and Dr. Cruz called me back that same day, gave me his personal cell phone number to send him pictures, and immediately let me know what he thought. He has since texted me again just to check on Elvis. I am SO happy I found Dr. Cruz, and we won't be going to anyone else for as long as he is around.

This review is long overdue, but it must be documented how great Dr. Cruz and his staff are! I called on labor day weekend of 2016 after my 5 month old puppy broke his leg and I was being quoted $6000 to perform surgery on him. Dr. Cruz was able to speak with me about my options and gave me his recommendations. I opted to not go for the surgery, and insteead left Oreo at the clinic for about a week with a cast so that they would be able to control and minimize his movement as much as possible. I was then able to take him home with his cast on. Oreo is doing great now, and I am forever grateful to this clinic for their attention to my puppy!

This review is more regarding the experience with front desk and miscommunication i experienced.I went to this vet a couple times I experienced decent service. In August I contacted Dr.Bhakhri via email regarding my maltipoo's discharge from his urinary area. The email had a picture attached that showed what was going on. He recommended I pick up antibiotics from the hospital. I called the front desk to ask when I could go in to pick up the medication and the front desk kept insisting that I had to schedule an appointment first because that's what Dr.Bhakri told them. Wait, What? That was not what was communicated in the email. I tried to ask the front desk to see if they could get the doctor on the phone so the misunderstanding could be cleared but they refused to do so insisting he is in a consultation. Didn't even offer to say that he would call back once he is free.I emailed the doctor again and he insisted I could pick up the medication first and if i wanted an immediate appointment I should go to an emergency location. It wasn't very clear and the front desk were a pain to deal with. It seems like the doctors are fine but they need to get better front desk personnel or atleast explain to them what good customer service means.I had to immediately get my dog checked to rule out anything serious so I made an appointment with vet pronto who came home and took care of it. Ofcourse the in home service was more expensive but it helped with an urgent situation.

We are first-time dog owners and we've had our puppy for almost 2 months. Immediately upon getting her, we made an appointment with Dr. Cruz for a well-check. He spent about 30 minutes with us giving her a full examination and answering our numerous questions. About a month later, our puppy woke up vomiting and had diarrhea. We were able to get her in to see Dr. Cruz within a couple hours. He took good care of her, especially since she had to stay overnight. A couple weeks after that, we got her spayed at the facility. Through our numerous visits in the past 2 months, Dr. Cruz has been incredible. He is very knowledgeable, compassionate, caring and he reaches out to check on our puppy. The staff at Colma Animal Hospital is great as well. They all love our puppy so much that we are going to board her there for our upcoming vacation.

I wanted to call and make an appointment for my dog to get spayed. Jasmine, the front desk receptionist said, "to be honest, it's really expensive here. It's going to be about $600. You should try the aspca. Umm.. Who said I wanted something cheaper? I guess my husband, who happens to work in surgery isn't able to cough up $600. He make more than that in one day. Also, my aunt wanted to get her dog spayed. She has a San Mateo County Animal spay/neuter voucher. This office is listed as one of the participating offices. They were only going to take $55 off the bill when the program says its $55 for the spay. She lives in San Mateo county and can only use the voucher there. Shame on you Jasmine. It's not nice to judge someone you don't even know.

I have been coming here for years. My wife brought her lab here during his life and my mother in law also brought her two Katrina hurricane survivor dogs here during their life, so of course, I bring my 2 Boston Terriers here. Not because they are close, but because the vet was family recommended and because everyone on staff act like they love their work. I can genuinely tell that they love animals and they hate seeing animals in pain or distress. I don't understand why my vet didn't come up when I initially searched for them on YELP? We most recently had Apollo go through surgery with Dr. Bhakari. We dropped him off in the morning and they asked that he stay for the day for observation. So we picked Apollo (our Boston terrier) towards the end of the day. He could barely walk due to pain and medication, but he was miserable in the evening and the next day. He was sent home with meds, and I still wonder why they don't make dog meds peanut butter or meat flavor, instead of me having to Macguyver a way for my little furry child to take his medicine. I use peanut butter or ham, usually works 90% of the time. When we go on short vacations, we trust this staff to look after our puppies through their boarding service. When boarded they also get played with and are attended to. Check ups are a breeze, even when the shots are due. I swear, vets are like pedatricians with how they treat and approach our furry family. I can't recommend this place enough. My oldest has been coming here since he was a puppy, so maybe 8 years and our second little cuddle bug was a rescue and been treated here regularly for 7 years. If you love your pets and consider them family, then take them to this place where I feel they are treated like family. If you have allergies, cat or dog, the waiting area has always been kept clean every time I go in, so you should be okay.

We've had several experiences with Colma Animal Hospital since June 2011.On December 30th 2016, our dog Leo (male/Dachshund mix/10 yrs) suddenly had vomiting, diarrhea all day, and head tilting/falling and rolling/jerking eye movements. We came in for an urgent situation next day because the office was open. We were so lucky. This was the first time for appointment with Dr.Cruz. The result of his diagnosis including X-rays/Blood test was "vestibular neuritis ". He gave Leo three shots and four kinds of medicines for treatment at home for one week. During the week, Dr.Cruz has been asking for an update on Leo. He is very compassionate with his patients and took the time to discuss treatment plan. After one week, Leo was almost back to normal, very active and eating well. It's a miracle!! To improve Leo's head tilting, he was administering injection 12 times till the end of February. It works gradually better for Leo, we keep bring him for monthly injection this year. Dr.Cruz and Colma Animal Hospital staff are incredibly understanding and caring about the pet and the pet owner as well. We highly recommend him and this office to anyone who wants a sincere, experienced, compassionate, kind, professional vet. Thank you!!

We came in for an urgent situation. My whippet lost so much weight in less than a week. Turned out she had a life threatening infection, and Dr. Cruz was awesome. Very friendly and understanding. I was very happy with their service. My poor doggie had to have an emergency operation, and considering how out of the blue this all happened we weren't financially prepared. The vet and staff gave me the option of a payment plan or to use a vet credit card which I chose. The whole bill was covered and I'm able to make low interest payments. My beautiful dog is worth it. She is back to 100% and put back on those pounds that she lost in about a week. I went back for a checkup and thanks to Dr Cruz and staff my baby is back to her old self!!

My mother-in-law's beloved pug (Julian) had been sick for several days with a sinus issue that didn't get better, we looked around for a veterinarian nearby and came across Colma Animal Hospital and were pleasantly surprised that they were able to set an appointment the same day.They were attended by Dr. Cruz who surprised them by being bi-lingual in Spanish and very personable. Dr. Cruz took them to the room and immediately saw the severity of Julian's issue and rushed him back to take x-rays and run some tests. He kept them informed and discovered that he had an infection in his larynx that was preventing him from breathing and gave them some options on how to fix it. Dr. Cruz set my family at ease to proceed with fixing the problem, he made sure they understood what was going on and next steps for follow up.Thank you Dr. Cruz and Colma Animal Hospital for all your care!

Dr. Cruz is the best! My Frenchie has gone through a rough start in breaking her leg as a puppy. And he has been of such great help to meet her needs. Always available 24/7 after and before her surgery to make sure everything went good. I very highly recommend him.

SADIE - JUNE 9, 2018
THIS MESSAGE IS FOR RAYMOND LAU.
SO RAYMOND....THIS VETERINARY CLINIC KILLED ONE OF YOUR CATS, ALMOST KILLED ANOTHER AND THE OWNER ALMOST KILLED YOUR DALMATIAN???
AND YOU'RE WILLING TO GIVE THIS HORRENDOUS PET HOSPITAL 5 STARS!!!!
WHY HAVE YOU CONTINUED TO GO THERE? NO NO NO!!!
THESE UNPROFESSIONALS DO NOT HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT TO GIVE YOUR CATS/DOGS ANYTHING....UNLESS THEY HAVE YOUR PERMISSION!!!!
WHATEVER THEY GAVE YOUR CAT IT HAD A NEGATIVE EFFECT AND KILLED HIM. SOUNDS LIKE THESE VETS AND THEIR STAFF DON'T KNOW WHAT THEIR DOING. IT'S A HIT OR MISS SITUATION THAT PUTS YOUR BELOVED PET'S LIFE AT RISK.
SAN FRANCISCO SMALL CLAIMS COURT, ANYONE CAN SUE UP TO $10,000.00 PER LAWSUIT. DON'T WAIT, THERE ARE TIME LIMITS. OR HIRE A GOOD LAWYER WITH PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE IN SUING AND WINNING CASES AGAINST BAD PET HOSPITALS AND VETS.
LEAVING YOUR CAT WET AND COLD IN A CAGE IS OUTRAGEOUS. THEY COULD HAVE DRIED YOUR CAT OR WRAPPED A TOWEL AROUND HIM/HER.
I HOPE THAT YOU DIDN'T PAY THEM ONE CENT. IMAGINE PAYING A PET HOSPITAL FOR KILLING YOUR BELOVED PET.
HERE'S A LIST OF VETERINARY HOSPITALS TO STAY AWAY FROM >SAN FRANCISCO VETERINARY SPECIALISTS - THEY CHARGE SOOOOO MUCH THAT YOU'D HAVE TO TAKE A LOAN OUT, OR PUT YOUR HOUSE UP FOR SALE!!!!!!
BELMONT PET HOSPITAL - PRETENTIOUS - EXPIRED MEDICATIONS - WHEN THEY SEE YA COMING....THEY SEE DOLLAR SIGNS $$$$.
THAT FAIRLY NEW EMERGENCY PET HOSPITAL IN DALY CITY, WHERE THAT BIG PAINT STORE USED TO BE, RIGHT OFF OF JUNIPERO SIERRA BLVD. - EXPENSIVE, PETS DIE THERE, SNOTTY STAFF, INEXPERIENCED VETS, LIARS!!!!
I'D LIKE TO PUT THEM OUT OF BUSINESS.
RESTANI FATIMA PET HOSPITAL, DALY CITY NEAR THE DALY CITY POLICE STATION. RESTANI IS NOT HIS REAL NAME, HE CLAIMS TO BE ITALIAN BUT HE'S EAST INDIAN.
RESTANI IS THE NAME OF THE STREET WHERE HE ONCE LIVED. WATCH OUT FOR THIS MAN, HIS HANDS ARE ALWAYS FILTHY. HE KILLED MY CAT AND OWES ME $$$. HE WITHHELD MY CAT'S MEDICAL FILE AND WOULDN'T LET ME SEE IT.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS NIGHTMARE!!!!
LASTLY....DR. FALCIS RETIRED AND I READ HIS DAUGHTER RUNS HIS OLD VETERINARY CLINIC. ALL I KNOW IS THAT
DR. FALCIS WAS BIASED, HATEFUL AND REVENGEFUL.
REMEMBER....IF THE VET DOESN'T LIKE YOU, IT'S HIGHLY LIKELY HE WON'T LIKE YOUR PET. SOME PEOPLE BECOME VETS BECAUSE THEY LOVE ANIMALS AND SOME PEOPLE BECOME VETS BECAUSE THEY WANT TO MAKE A LOT OF MONEY!!!!
MR. LAU.... UNLESS YOU SIGNED AN AUTHORIZATION PAPER GIVING THIS COLMA PET HOSPITAL FULL REIGN OVER YOUR PET....THEN THEY DID NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO SEDATE YOUR CAT!!!
AND KILL HIM.
MY ADVICE... TAKE THEM TO COURT!!!
IF YOUR CAT ISN'T FEELING GOOD AND IT DOESNT SEEM LIKE AN EMERGENCY....BUY "THE NATURAL CAT" WRITTEN BY ANITRA FRAZIER OR FRASIER....A REALLY GOOD BOOK FOR MANY OF YOUR PET'S AILMENTS AND HOW TO TREAT THEM RIGHT AT HOME, INEXPENSIVE OLD FASHIONED REMEDIES.
FOR YOU PET OWNERS OUT THERE WITH DOGS, CATS, PUPPIES AND KITTENS THAT HAVE DIARRHEA.
IN A SMALL POT POUR "SPRING WATER" OR REGULAR WATER, ABOUT 1 CUP, BRING TO A BOIL, THEN ADD 1/2 CUP UNCOOKED REGULAR WHITE RICE, COOK LOW AND SLOW.
THE WATER WILL TURN THICKER AND MILKY. LET IT COOL.
GO TO ANY PHARMACY AND ASK FOR FREE PLASTIC DROPPER OR PLUNGER, OR BUY ONE AT ANY DRUG STORE.
RINSE IT OFF AND FILL WITH THE WARM RICE WATER. GIVE IT TO YOUR PET THREE TIMES A DAY, LITTLE AMOUNT FOR PUPPIES AND KITTENS, MORE FOR BIGGER PETS. MY GOD USE COMMON SENSE!!!
RICE = STARCH = FORMED POOP (STOOLS)
WHEN A HUMAN OR ANIMAL HAS DIARRHEA, THEY LOSE ELECTROLYTES.
I BUY INFANT ELECTROLYTES AT WALGREENS, CALLED PEDIALYTE...POUR THIS INTO YOUR PET'S CLEAN EMPTY WATER DISH.
**MAKE SURE THERE'S A CLEAN BOWL OF REAL WATER, JUST IN CASE YOUR PET DOESN'T DRINK THE PEDIALYTE.
PEOPLE CAN BENEFIT FROM THIS AS WELL.
I GIVE MY CATS SPRING WATER.....NOT MINERAL WATER.
MINERAL WATER HAS MICROSCOPIC MINERALS, LIKE LITTLE ROCKS THAT CAN CAUSE KIDNEY STONES,
IF YOUR BABY HAS DIARRHEA.... TAKE YOUR BABY TO HIS/HER PRIMARY CARE DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY.
DIARRHEA IS LOSS OF BODILY FLUIDS....SO DO NOT HESITATE GETTING HELP FOR YOUR BABY!!!!!

Loved the place. They where nice and definitely treated my dogs carefully. Helped with trimming and giving them their shots. One of my dogs was particularly squirmy so had to sedate him to help him but in the end my dog is happy and pain free. Pricing seems average compared to other places.

I have been bringing my cat with renal failure to Colma Animal Hospital several times over the past six months. It's easy to get appointments and the staff are very kind and caring. There is also very little waiting time before appointments. Dr Cruz takes the time needed for each appointment and always answers any questions I may have. He also makes an effort to explain every option of treatment available for me to make informed decisions about medicines or tests. He is a truly compassionate vet and always asks for news about my cat. It's overall been a great experience for me so far and I would definitely recommend this place.

By far, Dr. Cruz is the only person that was patient in answering my questions and able to help me with my aggressive cat. I've had my cat for several years and just recently, he started to lash out at me. His behavioral problems seemed to get worst. I was immediately shocked that they took me in right away last minute. Dr. Cruz listened to me and understood that I wanted to find a solution that didnt involve wasting money on countless tests. We started going down a list of possible solutions to help solve my cat's behavioral issues. I couldnt be more happier with the way Dr. Cruz helped me. This was my first time going to Colma Animal Hospital and I've decided to take ALL my animals here. No regrets!The office may look a little outdated but dont let that fool you. it's really about the the doctors and staff that work there.

I called for an appointment for my cats broken tooth that need its roots extracted. They said to bring my cat in in 25 minutes. Which is how long it takes for me to drive here. I got there. They said, "Out system is down so we can't fit you in anyways... so sorry about that." I said, "okay." And she continued to the next person. Meanwhile my cat is crying in pain during this conversation. They could have at least had the decency call me back to tell me to not come and waste my time.

I started bringing my pug Elvis to Dr. Cruz at Colma Animal Hospital a few weeks ago when I got him. I have had to bring him in more than once for different issues, and every time Dr. Cruz and their staff have been friendly, informative, and amazing with my little guy who can tend to get pretty nervous around anyone new. Dr. Cruz informed me of all charges that would be associated before he performed anything, and has been VERY reasonable with payments I've made. I called the hospital last week with a question about his eye, and Dr. Cruz called me back that same day, gave me his personal cell phone number to send him pictures, and immediately let me know what he thought. He has since texted me again just to check on Elvis. I am SO happy I found Dr. Cruz, and we won't be going to anyone else for as long as he is around.

Dr Cruz, extracted my dogs baby canine that didn't fall out on its own. He fit me right away. Explained the procedure/process and called me when he was finished. His price was reasonable and he seems like a honest straight forward vet. I'm looking forward to bringing my other dog to him in the future.

This review is long overdue, but it must be documented how great Dr. Cruz and his staff are! I called on labor day weekend of 2016 after my 5 month old puppy broke his leg and I was being quoted $6000 to perform surgery on him. Dr. Cruz was able to speak with me about my options and gave me his recommendations. I opted to not go for the surgery, and insteead left Oreo at the clinic for about a week with a cast so that they would be able to control and minimize his movement as much as possible. I was then able to take him home with his cast on. Oreo is doing great now, and I am forever grateful to this clinic for their attention to my puppy!

This review is more regarding the experience with front desk and miscommunication i experienced.I went to this vet a couple times I experienced decent service. In August I contacted Dr.Bhakhri via email regarding my maltipoo's discharge from his urinary area. The email had a picture attached that showed what was going on. He recommended I pick up antibiotics from the hospital. I called the front desk to ask when I could go in to pick up the medication and the front desk kept insisting that I had to schedule an appointment first because that's what Dr.Bhakri told them. Wait, What? That was not what was communicated in the email. I tried to ask the front desk to see if they could get the doctor on the phone so the misunderstanding could be cleared but they refused to do so insisting he is in a consultation. Didn't even offer to say that he would call back once he is free.I emailed the doctor again and he insisted I could pick up the medication first and if i wanted an immediate appointment I should go to an emergency location. It wasn't very clear and the front desk were a pain to deal with. It seems like the doctors are fine but they need to get better front desk personnel or atleast explain to them what good customer service means.I had to immediately get my dog checked to rule out anything serious so I made an appointment with vet pronto who came home and took care of it. Ofcourse the in home service was more expensive but it helped with an urgent situation.

We are first-time dog owners and we've had our puppy for almost 2 months. Immediately upon getting her, we made an appointment with Dr. Cruz for a well-check. He spent about 30 minutes with us giving her a full examination and answering our numerous questions. About a month later, our puppy woke up vomiting and had diarrhea. We were able to get her in to see Dr. Cruz within a couple hours. He took good care of her, especially since she had to stay overnight. A couple weeks after that, we got her spayed at the facility. Through our numerous visits in the past 2 months, Dr. Cruz has been incredible. He is very knowledgeable, compassionate, caring and he reaches out to check on our puppy. The staff at Colma Animal Hospital is great as well. They all love our puppy so much that we are going to board her there for our upcoming vacation.

I wanted to call and make an appointment for my dog to get spayed. Jasmine, the front desk receptionist said, "to be honest, it's really expensive here. It's going to be about $600. You should try the aspca. Umm.. Who said I wanted something cheaper? I guess my husband, who happens to work in surgery isn't able to cough up $600. He make more than that in one day. Also, my aunt wanted to get her dog spayed. She has a San Mateo County Animal spay/neuter voucher. This office is listed as one of the participating offices. They were only going to take $55 off the bill when the program says its $55 for the spay. She lives in San Mateo county and can only use the voucher there. Shame on you Jasmine. It's not nice to judge someone you don't even know.

We have a 5 month old Rottweiler. Our daughter referred us to Colma Pet Hospital. We had the pleasure of seeing Dr Cruz who is great! He is so very patient with me. I always have a lot of questions which he takes his time to answer. He never makes me feel rushed. We haven' t had a dog in 14 yrs so it feels like the first time for us. We have learned a lot from Dr Cruz. The staff is so nice and always able to get us in. I would definitely recommend this place.

I have been coming here for years. My wife brought her lab here during his life and my mother in law also brought her two Katrina hurricane survivor dogs here during their life, so of course, I bring my 2 Boston Terriers here. Not because they are close, but because the vet was family recommended and because everyone on staff act like they love their work. I can genuinely tell that they love animals and they hate seeing animals in pain or distress. I don't understand why my vet didn't come up when I initially searched for them on YELP? We most recently had Apollo go through surgery with Dr. Bhakari. We dropped him off in the morning and they asked that he stay for the day for observation. So we picked Apollo (our Boston terrier) towards the end of the day. He could barely walk due to pain and medication, but he was miserable in the evening and the next day. He was sent home with meds, and I still wonder why they don't make dog meds peanut butter or meat flavor, instead of me having to Macguyver a way for my little furry child to take his medicine. I use peanut butter or ham, usually works 90% of the time. When we go on short vacations, we trust this staff to look after our puppies through their boarding service. When boarded they also get played with and are attended to. Check ups are a breeze, even when the shots are due. I swear, vets are like pedatricians with how they treat and approach our furry family. I can't recommend this place enough. My oldest has been coming here since he was a puppy, so maybe 8 years and our second little cuddle bug was a rescue and been treated here regularly for 7 years. If you love your pets and consider them family, then take them to this place where I feel they are treated like family. If you have allergies, cat or dog, the waiting area has always been kept clean every time I go in, so you should be okay.

We've had several experiences with Colma Animal Hospital since June 2011.On December 30th 2016, our dog Leo (male/Dachshund mix/10 yrs) suddenly had vomiting, diarrhea all day, and head tilting/falling and rolling/jerking eye movements. We came in for an urgent situation next day because the office was open. We were so lucky. This was the first time for appointment with Dr.Cruz. The result of his diagnosis including X-rays/Blood test was "vestibular neuritis ". He gave Leo three shots and four kinds of medicines for treatment at home for one week. During the week, Dr.Cruz has been asking for an update on Leo. He is very compassionate with his patients and took the time to discuss treatment plan. After one week, Leo was almost back to normal, very active and eating well. It's a miracle!! To improve Leo's head tilting, he was administering injection 12 times till the end of February. It works gradually better for Leo, we keep bring him for monthly injection this year. Dr.Cruz and Colma Animal Hospital staff are incredibly understanding and caring about the pet and the pet owner as well. We highly recommend him and this office to anyone who wants a sincere, experienced, compassionate, kind, professional vet. Thank you!!

Can I tell you Dr. Cruz is the best! We made an appt with him for the first time because my dog was pretty sick. He gave us different options and prices on how we wanted to treat Bella. We stuck with one plan and he even called me over the weekend asking for an update on Bella. Now that is customer service!! I highly recommend him to anyone who wants a sincere, experienced, compassionate, kind, smart, articulate vet. I hope Dr. Cruz doesn't go anywhere else, if he does, I will follow!! Thank you again Dr. Cruz!!!

We came in for an urgent situation. My whippet lost so much weight in less than a week. Turned out she had a life threatening infection, and Dr. Cruz was awesome. Very friendly and understanding. I was very happy with their service. My poor doggie had to have an emergency operation, and considering how out of the blue this all happened we weren't financially prepared. The vet and staff gave me the option of a payment plan or to use a vet credit card which I chose. The whole bill was covered and I'm able to make low interest payments. My beautiful dog is worth it. She is back to 100% and put back on those pounds that she lost in about a week. I went back for a checkup and thanks to Dr Cruz and staff my baby is back to her old self!!

Dr. Cruz and his team at Colma Animal Hospital cared for my 16 year old cat as if she was there own at the end of her life. I cannot speak more highly of a professional, caring and communicative veterinarian than Dr. Cruz and Colma Animal Hospital. I was referred to his practice by a classmate and I am forever grateful and thankful that that connection was made.When I am ready to have another cat or other animal, I will most certainly be going back to establish care with Colma Animal Hospital and Dr. Cruz. I live in the Haight in SF and would gladly make the trip to see this professional and caring group of veterinarians- you should too!

My mother-in-law's beloved pug (Julian) had been sick for several days with a sinus issue that didn't get better, we looked around for a veterinarian nearby and came across Colma Animal Hospital and were pleasantly surprised that they were able to set an appointment the same day.They were attended by Dr. Cruz who surprised them by being bi-lingual in Spanish and very personable. Dr. Cruz took them to the room and immediately saw the severity of Julian's issue and rushed him back to take x-rays and run some tests. He kept them informed and discovered that he had an infection in his larynx that was preventing him from breathing and gave them some options on how to fix it. Dr. Cruz set my family at ease to proceed with fixing the problem, he made sure they understood what was going on and next steps for follow up.Thank you Dr. Cruz and Colma Animal Hospital for all your care!

DR. Bakhri works with his patients and their owners. He doesn't try up selling them on a ton of extra vet costs by performing anything he feels is unnecessary.I've called Colma Animal Hospital to let them know what I'm seeing in my dog (this time it was rice looking worms in dog stool) and DR. Bakhri wrote a script/provided thr appropriate intestinal worm medication without having to examine the dog (I wad just at the Vet two weeks prior, but little Lucy ate something she shouldn't have had a week after seeing the Vet).He's gentle and really compassionate for animals. The staff are great and they are open 6 days a week during normal business hours. Great place and inexpensive. I would recommend to anyone living in SF and the penninsula.
