Community Veterinary Hospital

My first Vet, He didn't know what he was doing and proceeded to sedate my dog, she was loaded, my 2nd Vet. Said he was no longer employed and She gave smart and professional recommendation's so yes although I've never have seen Dr. GRANT the many times I've been there I'll still give them a 4. Read Less

I have been a client for so long I have seen the second generation of veterinary doctors, and several of the staff, retire from practice! Professional, caring and very experienced group of people. I live close, but know people bring their pets from far and wide to make sure they get the best of care. Read Less

Excellent staff. Excellent service. They really care about your pets. I'd give them 5 stars but they really need to address the wait time. It's pretty bad. Also, if a pet a getting a simpler procedure they skip you. This is my only problem with them. Otherwise, they're great. Read Less

The vets are kind and very down-to-earth. They explain things carefully and provide extra information when necessary or if you are interested in learning more. Be advised, the vets don't arrive until 10 am but you can arrive earlier with your pet to get a spot in line. They do not take appointments. This veterinary hospital is for walk-ins only.Read Less

Went here once with our cat. Never Again!!! They were supposed to do a basic blood draw, and he was taken from us, left in a cage in the back while everyone was taking a lunch break, we were left for 30 minutes in the exam room. They bring him back to us, with a huge bill of all the "procedures" they had done, none of which we asked for, or they ran by us first.We paid the crazy bill and left, and in the car discovered our sweet little boy had his back legs drenched in rubbing alcohol!!! Had to bathe him when we got home. Horrible experience. Everyone go to Happy Tails and see Dr. Berka, she's awesome. Read Less

You know a great vet during the tough times, not the easy times. We lost Dieter last year; there was nothing that could be done. And through the entire experience Dr Grant was there for us every step with compassion and caring. I can't think of any other vet I would want to care for my German Shepherds. Read Less

DO NOT GO HERE - UNNECESSARY SURGERY COST ME $380 I went to the Community Veterinary Hospital, Inc. to have a stray cat spayed that we decided to take in. The practice required a screening exam, for which they told us the cat appeared to be pregnant already and we couldn't do any vaccinations until we had her spayed. This visit cost $130. We scheduled a spay 2-weeks later and was told it would be an additional $250. Dr. William A. Grant II was the one who attempted to perform the spay. We were told the cat was ready for pickup. After getting there, paying for services and receiving the cat, we were then told that the cat must have already been spayed. I asked why we just paid $250 and Dr. William A. Grant II became defensive and angry that we contested the charge and how we were lucky he wasn't charging us for the abdominal exploratory procedure of $500+. I understand that the procedure was attempted and their time was considered, so I was willing to pay something. I asked if we can meet halfway on the $250 bill and he would not budge. I also checked the box to contact me for any additional work that may be needed, thus the $500+ he "waived" should not have even been brought up, as I never received a call to consent with that. As well, he refused to return my calls to discuss the matter (four times I left messages with my phone number), so I then took time off work to go in today to hopefully reach a reasonable resolution. Instead he refused to accommodate the customer in any way on this unnecessary operation. How can the customer, with no experience at all, bear all the risk, with no disclosure of this even being a possibility? This is not my field, I relied on the professional. To summarize, I'm $380 out-of-pocket on this experience for nothing and have a "Certificate of Spay" completed by Dr. William A. Grant II, stating he performed the spay on my cat. This is not true. This is a FALSE certificate. Hi did not perform the spay. He only charged me to confirm someone else's work. This is "bad revenue" with poor foresight in maintaining a good customer relationship.

This place was recommended to us last year as a less expensive alternative to newer pet hospitals and we have not been disappointed! The staff is so friendly and personable and they genuinely care about you and your pets. It's first come, first served on a walk in basis so depending on how busy they are, it could be a short wait or an hour long wait but that's a small price to pay. The office was built in the 50s and it definitely looks like it, but they have upgraded what they need in order to keep their practice up to date and modern with computers and equipment. If you're looking for a one time vet visit or want to make this place YOUR vet, you'll surely be pleased either way. Read Less

Vets that care, are well educated and trained, and don't price-gouge. We have been taking our dog here for the last three and a half years and think highly of them. Note, they don't do appointments, but are a walk-in clinic. I have seen some complaints about front counter service, but given the volume they do, direct responses are understandable. Still, front desk service has become more friendly over time. Read Less

Beware these Scammers! They will "sedate" your dog even if you only came in for shots, and charge you accordingly. I'm not sure where they got the name "Discount Clinic", especially when you compare them to "Golden state Humane Society" just blocks away from there...Read Less

I chose this place because they are the ones who have the best review out of all the animal hospitals that I have searched up and I searched up 5. I also picked this hospital because they take very good care of the pets in surgery, sickness, very bad injury's. Lastly why I picked this is because by Dog Deezel had to be put down at this place, 3 years ago, because he had a tumor growing Around His Heart, and they made him as healthy ad they could because we thought that it was a sickness, so then they have him an X-Ray and they noticed a tumor so we had to put him down or he wouldn't be able to breath or move around very much. they are a miracle worker.

Nice enough staff, but that will not stop them from taking advantage of you, for not knowing what is going on with your pet.... They know that you want to do 'what is best', and they will add on lots of things that are not at all necessary. They will try to get every penny out of you, just like a used car salesman - but worse. Then, if you seem hesitant - they will even try the "you can have your pet taken away" routine "if you don't do this here and now". Well I didn't do what they recommended, and took my pet to another vet (which I really LIKED this time), and he said there is not much you can do, just take the pet home, it will be fine. The next day my dog was acting completely normal, and there is nothing wrong with it. Had I listened to dr. Grant, we would have been doing $500 more worth of "treatment" and "medicine" for nothing.

CVH has been caring for ALL our animals (from dogs to cats to birds) for more decades than I can remember. They've helped ease our animal's pain when they were ill, performed surgeries when needed, and were there for them at the end. Everyone there has been kind, caring and has ALWAYS gone the extra mile to keep our friends healthy and safe. For that and, so much more, I am grateful for having them in our lives. You guys are the BEST! Thank you doesn't even describe what I want to express. Read Less

Awesome people & fantastic service!!! Don't believe every negative comment as I took my 2 cats in (one at a time) because they were sneezing. Most vets would rack up the charges by prescribing drugs but they suggested children's saline nasal spray. In the end, they both got updated shots & confirmation that they are 2 well taken care of and spoiled kitties. Read Less
