They are an awesome team of Vets and Vet Techs! I’ve been going to this place so long! I’m now bringing my Norra 2 year old black lab. She’s my 4th lab that has been under their care!! Doc Cindy actually fixed my first lab mix when it was called ABC Veterinarian Hospital and she was with me when I had to say goodbye to Micky!! I will always trust them with my new babies. Only reason Norra has not been here sooner is because we lived in North County. Read Less

I have to say my babies love this place and so do I. Such a loving, organized, caring group. I’ve tried other groomers because they are closer to where I live only to have my poor poosdle suffer once again with ear infections. Since I started bringing Monty here he has not suffered with ear infections after hair removal. The groomer here is exceptional! Thanks to all of you for loving my babies when we board them as well. They are actually happy when we drop them off, even my picky poodle Monty. Thanks again for your professionalism. Read Less

This place is fantastic! Every single person there, from the doctors to the Techs to the receptionists, are sooo nice and helpful. They took great care of not just our pug/boston terrier mix Maggie, but us as well. They are very caring and compassionate, and unlike 99% of other vet hospitals and clinics, they are straight forward and honest with the cost, and don't try to upsell you unneeded procedures and tests. If I could give them 6 stars I would. Read Less

Unfortunately I feel the need to write this for those like me who don't have extra cash to spare. I called this hospital as it was under the spay California list as a low cost spay clinic. On the website it says a spay is $120. I called to confirm this along with disclosing my dogs exact weight of 57lbs. They said it was indeed $120. I also asked if there would be an extra charge if my dog was in heat or pregnant, they said yes. I asked how much it would be. $50 they said, I then proceeded to ask about any extra charges that may be included, they said just the cone, and if there are fleas they administer a $12 flea med. I said great thank you, and proceed to make an appointment for her to get spayed as she is my SERVICE DOG(I just got her as my service dog and she is a puppy) and I plan on being her to college. I get there and they tell me everything I heard over the phone except the fact that she SUDDENLY doesn't qualify for the discounted spay because she is 2lbs OVER their weight limit THEY NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT, and at that point they had taken her back. Now I suffer from severe ptsd which is what she is trained to help, so this was extremely horrible for me. I felt extremely pressured into proceeding with the spay! So now it's $195 for her to be spayed, plus the $12 plus the possible $50. Okay yeah that still better then other hospitals so I signed and let her be spayed. I get a phone call later in the day saying she was in fact in heat during the surgery. Okay no problem it's only $50 right? Nope! It's $100!!! Plus the cone plus the flea stuff!! So now a $180 spay has turned into a $307 spay! I barely could afford it! I could have had my local vet do it for the same price! They will lie about costs, they won't tell you weight limits, they will up charge you and when confronted about it they did nothing to rectify the situation. This is not a vet I would recommend or go back to. Read Less

I was with the same vet for over a decade, and when management changed I felt it was time for me to go.  I looked long and hard for a new place to care for all of my animals.  I met several disappointments along the way.  I came across Care and Comfort strictly by accident, and let me tell you I have never been happier, more confident or more trusting in how my animals are cared for.  Not only are the vets great, as I trust all of them where there were a couple I didn't at my old vet, but the staff is absolutely wonderful!  I have had some horrible things happen this year with some of my animals, and I have never had any other vet and staff be so compassionate, caring, patient, and kind.  I am so thankful to have found this team of extraordinary people!  If you consider your 4 legged creatures as part of your family I strongly recommend you look no further and come see the girls at Care and Comfort.

As a first time patient at Care & Comfort, our 3 year old male cat Nick received exceptional medical attention today by Dr. Allen and Ms. Turk.  Both of these professionals went out of their way to thoroughly listen to our questions and concerns regarding Nick's health.  Nick's exam and subsequent follow up consultation with us were very complete and unhurried.  Dr. Allen and Ms. Turk both did a great job communicating Nick's future course of treatment and our options for him.We were also amazed by how well they and the other staff gently handled our very sweet but very skittish cat who does not do well in vet situations.  We feel confident that Nick will be in great medical hands from the team at Care & Comfort Veterinary Hospital.

I just got a boxer puppy two days ago. The first night I brought her home she threw up after eating and continued vomiting all throughout the night. The place I normally take my other dog to didn't have anything available until next week. I called around to find a place that could see her that day. This location was referred by another Vet that currently isn't taking new patients. I called them and explained what was going on. They were willing to get me in that AM but I had another commitment. They were able to see her in the early afternoon. They told me that they would have a room waiting for us as she's sick and wanted her contained.As soon as I walked in the door, a person walked towards me as I walked in and guided me to an exam room. They brought my paperwork in the exam room so I could complete it in there and keep my sick dog away from other animals. I really liked this a lot as it has concerned me at other Vets where sick dogs are hanging out in common areas where healthy and maybe not fully immunized animals may be later which could lead to cross contamination. Ashley was absolutely fantastic! I don't say that about a lot of medical assistants or front office staff. She was just super enthusiastic, caring, informative, patient, and accommodating. I could really tell that she cared not only about my animal but about me as well. I really liked her positive attitude and reassurance that we would figure out what was going on with my new baby girl.Dr. Aitchison came in promptly and did a full exam on her. She let me know that everything looked good as far as her heart, temp, eyes, ears, nose, etc. everything from a physical exam stance. She did express concern with her vomiting and recommended some tests to rule out Parvo, parasites, etc. The assistants who came in to do all the not so fun stuff were super nice and caring as well. I was so happy to know that all those tests came back negative!The Doctor came back in and explained throughly all the other tests, X-rays, and such we could do to see if something more serious was going on. She was not pushy in anyway about what to do but fully educated me on what else could be done to find out what was going on as well as treatments that could be done to help her feel better.Ashley came back in to go over the pricing of everything. Obviously it was going to be expensive to run all the tests, have xrays etc. Knowing I had just brought my pup home and she was adjusting to a new environment, being away from her siblings etc. I decided I would just take her home and monitor her closely for the next 24 hours and she's how she did. They supported my decision but the dr highly recommended giving her fluids to help with her dehydration. I opted to do that and then was on my way. They gave me a whole folder of information and a number for an emergency clinic in case she didn't improve or got worse and needed to be seen right away. Thank goodness Minnie did great! I think the fluids helped her a lot. She wasn't sick anymore and was back running around like a bouncy new puppy. I am very appreciative of everyone who helped take care of her. From the person on the phone, to the assistants and the doctor, I could really tell everyone there genuinely cares about their animal patients! If you're looking for a vet I highly recommend this place! Read Less

Took my Athena in after throwing up for a couple of days. Dr Holly and Kendra were very sweet to my kitty. Athena is doing a lot better after some much needed rehydration and monitoring. She came home in a VERY loving mood. Think she was trying to say thank you for taking her to a facility that took care of her! Just a tip, if you don't have pet insurance no vet visit is going to be extremely cheap, they pointed us in the right direction for credit care. We will definitely be getting our kitties some pet insurance though! Read Less

I rely on yelp reviews when picking something new, so when my dog needed urgent care from a tooth infection, we picked Care and comfort! We were so pleased with the care they took in examining our little 8 lb papillon, and when she needed surgery we were at ease that we knew we were given an appropriate price and that she was in excellent hands. Our veterinarian walked me though every step, called me while they were in surgery to update me, and was there when I picked her up to go over the procedure.

THEY ALMOST KILLED MY CAT! I recently took my 1 1/2 year old cat to this vet because he had been throwing up, became extremely lethargic, and would not eat or drink. This vet took an x-ray and told us our cat had a blockage in his intestines and there was NO POSSIBLE way that he would pass it. She then proceeded to tell us that the only options were to give our cat surgery that would cost thousands of dollars, or to put him down right there on the spot. Instinctively, their diagnosis combined with their high pressure tactics made me question their integrity. I ended up taking my cat home, hoping for the best, and now he has FULLY RECOVERED.

I have taken multiple pets here for the last 7 years and every time I am amazed. I have received nothing but top notch care for my dog and cats over the years. Not only do I get excellent service and treatment for my pets while I'm there, and patient explanations of everything and no pushiness if I decide against a recommended service for any reason, I always get that over the phone, as well as consistent follow up calls to check on my babies after vaccines and major treatments. Even though I've moved further away and this is no longer the most convenient vet clinic, I will happily continue to drive the extra miles. It's 100% worth it. (I'd also like to add that in my line of work at a dog daycare, I deal with vet offices on a daily basis, and I definitely judge them based on the service I receive over the phone.

This place is fantastic! Every single person there, from the doctors to the Techs to the receptionists, are sooo nice and helpful. They took great care of not just our pug/boston terrier mix Maggie, but us as well. They are very caring and compassionate, and unlike 99% of other vet hospitals and clinics, they are straight forward and honest with the cost, and don't try to upsell you unneeded procedures and tests. If I could give them 6 stars I would. Read Less

Unfortunately I feel the need to write this for those like me who don't have extra cash to spare. I called this hospital as it was under the spay California list as a low cost spay clinic. On the website it says a spay is $120. I called to confirm this along with disclosing my dogs exact weight of 57lbs. They said it was indeed $120. I also asked if there would be an extra charge if my dog was in heat or pregnant, they said yes. I asked how much it would be. $50 they said, I then proceeded to ask about any extra charges that may be included, they said just the cone, and if there are fleas they administer a $12 flea med. I said great thank you, and proceed to make an appointment for her to get spayed as she is my SERVICE DOG(I just got her as my service dog and she is a puppy) and I plan on being her to college. I get there and they tell me everything I heard over the phone except the fact that she SUDDENLY doesn't qualify for the discounted spay because she is 2lbs OVER their weight limit THEY NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT, and at that point they had taken her back. Now I suffer from severe ptsd which is what she is trained to help, so this was extremely horrible for me. I felt extremely pressured into proceeding with the spay! So now it's $195 for her to be spayed, plus the $12 plus the possible $50. Okay yeah that still better then other hospitals so I signed and let her be spayed. I get a phone call later in the day saying she was in fact in heat during the surgery. Okay no problem it's only $50 right? Nope! It's $100!!! Plus the cone plus the flea stuff!! So now a $180 spay has turned into a $307 spay! I barely could afford it! I could have had my local vet do it for the same price! They will lie about costs, they won't tell you weight limits, they will up charge you and when confronted about it they did nothing to rectify the situation. This is not a vet I would recommend or go back to. Read Less

I was with the same vet for over a decade, and when management changed I felt it was time for me to go.  I looked long and hard for a new place to care for all of my animals.  I met several disappointments along the way.  I came across Care and Comfort strictly by accident, and let me tell you I have never been happier, more confident or more trusting in how my animals are cared for.  Not only are the vets great, as I trust all of them where there were a couple I didn't at my old vet, but the staff is absolutely wonderful!  I have had some horrible things happen this year with some of my animals, and I have never had any other vet and staff be so compassionate, caring, patient, and kind.  I am so thankful to have found this team of extraordinary people!  If you consider your 4 legged creatures as part of your family I strongly recommend you look no further and come see the girls at Care and Comfort.

As a first time patient at Care & Comfort, our 3 year old male cat Nick received exceptional medical attention today by Dr. Allen and Ms. Turk.  Both of these professionals went out of their way to thoroughly listen to our questions and concerns regarding Nick's health.  Nick's exam and subsequent follow up consultation with us were very complete and unhurried.  Dr. Allen and Ms. Turk both did a great job communicating Nick's future course of treatment and our options for him.We were also amazed by how well they and the other staff gently handled our very sweet but very skittish cat who does not do well in vet situations.  We feel confident that Nick will be in great medical hands from the team at Care & Comfort Veterinary Hospital.

I just got a boxer puppy two days ago. The first night I brought her home she threw up after eating and continued vomiting all throughout the night. The place I normally take my other dog to didn't have anything available until next week. I called around to find a place that could see her that day. This location was referred by another Vet that currently isn't taking new patients. I called them and explained what was going on. They were willing to get me in that AM but I had another commitment. They were able to see her in the early afternoon. They told me that they would have a room waiting for us as she's sick and wanted her contained.As soon as I walked in the door, a person walked towards me as I walked in and guided me to an exam room. They brought my paperwork in the exam room so I could complete it in there and keep my sick dog away from other animals. I really liked this a lot as it has concerned me at other Vets where sick dogs are hanging out in common areas where healthy and maybe not fully immunized animals may be later which could lead to cross contamination. Ashley was absolutely fantastic! I don't say that about a lot of medical assistants or front office staff. She was just super enthusiastic, caring, informative, patient, and accommodating. I could really tell that she cared not only about my animal but about me as well. I really liked her positive attitude and reassurance that we would figure out what was going on with my new baby girl.Dr. Aitchison came in promptly and did a full exam on her. She let me know that everything looked good as far as her heart, temp, eyes, ears, nose, etc. everything from a physical exam stance. She did express concern with her vomiting and recommended some tests to rule out Parvo, parasites, etc. The assistants who came in to do all the not so fun stuff were super nice and caring as well. I was so happy to know that all those tests came back negative!The Doctor came back in and explained throughly all the other tests, X-rays, and such we could do to see if something more serious was going on. She was not pushy in anyway about what to do but fully educated me on what else could be done to find out what was going on as well as treatments that could be done to help her feel better.Ashley came back in to go over the pricing of everything. Obviously it was going to be expensive to run all the tests, have xrays etc. Knowing I had just brought my pup home and she was adjusting to a new environment, being away from her siblings etc. I decided I would just take her home and monitor her closely for the next 24 hours and she's how she did. They supported my decision but the dr highly recommended giving her fluids to help with her dehydration. I opted to do that and then was on my way. They gave me a whole folder of information and a number for an emergency clinic in case she didn't improve or got worse and needed to be seen right away. Thank goodness Minnie did great! I think the fluids helped her a lot. She wasn't sick anymore and was back running around like a bouncy new puppy. I am very appreciative of everyone who helped take care of her. From the person on the phone, to the assistants and the doctor, I could really tell everyone there genuinely cares about their animal patients! If you're looking for a vet I highly recommend this place! Read Less

Took my Athena in after throwing up for a couple of days. Dr Holly and Kendra were very sweet to my kitty. Athena is doing a lot better after some much needed rehydration and monitoring. She came home in a VERY loving mood. Think she was trying to say thank you for taking her to a facility that took care of her! Just a tip, if you don't have pet insurance no vet visit is going to be extremely cheap, they pointed us in the right direction for credit care. We will definitely be getting our kitties some pet insurance though! Read Less

THEY ALMOST KILLED MY CAT! I recently took my 1 1/2 year old cat to this vet because he had been throwing up, became extremely lethargic, and would not eat or drink. This vet took an x-ray and told us our cat had a blockage in his intestines and there was NO POSSIBLE way that he would pass it. She then proceeded to tell us that the only options were to give our cat surgery that would cost thousands of dollars, or to put him down right there on the spot. Instinctively, their diagnosis combined with their high pressure tactics made me question their integrity. I ended up taking my cat home, hoping for the best, and now he has FULLY RECOVERED.

I have taken multiple pets here for the last 7 years and every time I am amazed. I have received nothing but top notch care for my dog and cats over the years. Not only do I get excellent service and treatment for my pets while I'm there, and patient explanations of everything and no pushiness if I decide against a recommended service for any reason, I always get that over the phone, as well as consistent follow up calls to check on my babies after vaccines and major treatments. Even though I've moved further away and this is no longer the most convenient vet clinic, I will happily continue to drive the extra miles. It's 100% worth it.
