We've been taking our dogs here for several years. Dr. Boman and Dr. Halsey have treated my dogs for multiple issues and I feel that their assessments are spot on. More importantly, I trust them and the care they recommend for my dogs. The front desk staff and vet techs are awesome. They remember my dogs by name. Definitely a plus that they're open 7 days a week - no emergency vet fees! They're always flexible and I'm able to get my dogs in for appointments when needed. Highly recommend!! Read Less

We have been seeing Dr. Halsey for years and recently followed her to this hospital. She has always taken great care of my dogs. She answers all my questions in a way I can understand and she writes clear instructions on prescription bottles. This is really important to me especially when you are distressed about the condition of your dog and you can't think straight. The couple times I have been at this location with an appointment, the staff hasn't kept me waiting long to be checked in or out. I really appreciate it when the front desk works efficiently.

Bait and switch. Was referred through SD County low cost spay and neuter program. My wife was quoted $95 and she asked if there were any additional costs. She was told no and she set tje appointment.
I dropped the dog off and signed some papers. Is i was signing i notice the cost was $395 on the receptionists paper behind the counter.
Long story short by the time i got in touch with my wife they had already started the procedure.
Be aware the $95 spay doesn't include lab work, catheter, post op pain meds, or the cone collar.
We got an apology and they said they would address the staff member that set up the appointment. Read Less
