This office had me pay for a visit for my incredibly sick dog who needed emergency care, even though they did absolutely nothing for him.
At around 4:30 in the afternoon my dog began vomiting blood. I called the office to ask if they would be open long enough for me to able to get my dog there and have him seen, or if I should find an emergency clinic to take him to instead. They said to "definitely" bring him to them as long as I arrived before 5:30.
At 5:05, I called their office again to make sure that the dog could still be seen since traffic was causing me extra delays. The said again that he would be seen if I arrived before 5:30.
I arrived at the office at about 5:20. I waited until 6:00 to see a vet. at which point I was informed that it was "after hours" and they wouldn't be able to run any sort of diagnostics on my dog at all. I was then referred to an emergency clinic instead and told that I shouldn't wait until the end of the day to bring my dog in for diagnostics. (I'm sorry that I don't control the time at which he begins vomiting?)
Why should I be charged for a visit where absolutely nothing was done for my dog, especially when I asked multiple times whether he should be taken directly to emergency to begin with? The emergency vet has their own bills; I didn't need this unnecessary one added. Plus, the dog was in pain/dehydrated for that much longer due to the unnecessary visit and wait.

Told us we could walk in for an appt but we had to wait almost an hour. We've been patrons over 10 years & never had to wait so long. The veterinarians are patient & informative but seems to rush & part of their objective was to push the insurance plan. Since becoming VCA this place has not been as pleasant.

We love Dr. Andrews and Dr. Howes! Both are experienced, bright and very compassionate. They've taken great care of our 20-year-old cat since we moved to Pasadena several years ago. The front office staff and other vets are also very friendly and professional. Reasonably priced and a good amount of parking. Also, they run on a mostly walk-in basis (except for things like surgery).
Highly recommend!

A 16 months ago my dog, whom I've had since I was 7-8 (I'm 16 now), ran away from my home. 3 months later I found out that someone found her, took her here and had them check her for a chip. For some reason they never contacted us and put my dog up for adoption. She has a new family who refuses to even let me see her. So this place is just greeeaaat. I'm sure this was a mistake in the chip so don't take it out on this place but still. I just wanted to get my story out there and hopefully my dogs new owners will see this.

I highly recommend this place....in particular Dr. Laura. To start, I must say I am very critical of veterinary clinics because my brother is a vet so I usually get the family discount. However, there are occasions when I don't have time to drive to NoCal to visit my brother. I took my dog into the clinic the other day. She could not walk and would not eat. They ran multiple test, x-rays, and an ultrasound. They had no problem sending the results to my brother, and even tracked me down outside to talk to my brother on the phone to discuss their observations. In the end, my dog had to be put down, but the honesty and thoughtfulness of the folks at this clinic will always be remembered. Moreover, they were very thorough, and addressed all the symptoms appropriately. I will be happy to use them again with future pets.
