San Diego, California
General Info

Staff members watch the animal's entrance while noting if it hesitates circles vocalizes or anchors its weight to the door. The clinic observes patient responses to determine whether to implement a slow approach quiet staging or rapid triage based on stress levels. Physical evaluations examine balance ear tension skin warmth hydration fur texture oral response breath pattern and handling resistance. Medical diagnostics rely on owner feedback which anchors discussions about sleeping positions seasonal behavior changes appetite shifts and recent avoidance patterns. VCA Pacific Petcare Animal Hospital delivers an extensive array of services including wellness checks, urgent care, geriatric mapping, weight stabilization plans, and pain indexing. The arrangement of services into multiple visits benefits pets that perform better during shorter activity periods.

This model enables families to prevent additional trauma in animals that are noise-sensitive, recovering from surgery, or have previous fear experiences. Post-visit planning includes body-language guides and emotional response scales for at-home tracking. It is recommended that owners modify their communication patterns along with their schedules and daily habits to support post-care decompression. The scheduling of follow-up actions depends on behavioral readiness instead of fixed timelines.

A little confusing describing the pricing of updating my cats shots. They were very friendly and helpful though and we were able to schedule both cats into one visit.

I've been going to Pacific Pet for about 3 years. Like the staff and purchase all my pet food there. Had an emergency last night with my cat who turns out to be diabetic. After treating her, hospital sent us home with instructions to see my regular vet first thing in the morning for monitoring and insulin. The guy who answered the phone said they were too busy and couldn't help me. Needless to say, I'm looking for a new vet. Read Less

After Dr. Ball left last year, the replacement vet just isn't nearly as good. My cat had kidney failure, and the vet failed to send in the tests the same day which instead took 3 days. I asked her if I should bring my cat to the ER vet and she told me there was nothing they could do that she could. After waiting three days on the blood and urine tests, she finally recommended I take my cat to the ER clinic where the prognosis was she should have been treated sooner. Adding insult, she put an entire case of feline kidney care wet food at the front desk for me to purchase for my cat that died 5 days later. The front desk staff is amazing but can't make up for the worst vet service I have ever experienced. Read Less

Excellent pet care with this office. They always know me & my pet & greet me by name. All the vets are great & the team is very friendly. Their prices are fair for their services. My cat has had ongoing treatment for a year since adopting her as a very sick kitten for a problem that can only be managed but not cured. They have been warm, loving & helpful in a very difficult situation & they haven't ever pushed unwanted & expensive treatment or considered giving up on her. They helped me get her to a great & stable place with her health. I will always be grateful to Dr. Smith for the time & effort she put into my pet & keeping her not only alive, but happy & playful again. Dr. Smith has personally called me & kept me informed of her health & care every step & I never lost hope! I have recommended this office to others who are also happy with their services. Read Less

The whole practice is great. They are warm and friendly. From the minute you walk in the door they greet your pet by name. The quality of care is fantastic. And honestly, the quality of care and follow up we have had with Pacific Petcare is far greater than human medicine. I wish my own docs were half as attentive! I would recommend this facility without reservation or hesitation. Read Less

My family loves the care that our pets have gotten at Pacific Petcare! Dr.Geoff Ball is always warm and caring with our babies! The entire staff is extremely helpful and they have all treated both our pets and us with respect and kindness. We've had several bad experiences with Vets in Carmel Valley, so it is extremely comforting to find a local office that is right around the corner in case of an emergency or for day-to-day pet care. Thanks Pacific Petcare! :) Read Less

The first time my husband brought our dog to Pacific Petcare they were good enough and the reviews online were good. But, when I brought our cats in for inital shots the front desk had an attitude and seemed not to care about my animals. They also told me they had no record for my dog, even though the old vet had faxed them on his first visit. When I came in the next day for the appointment I had scheduled they took me right in. Everything seemed ok so far, but when they took my pets into the back it was weird because unless it was surgery my old vet did everything in the room with the owners. Then the next day I was looking at my flea treatment for all four of my pets and odly the one that Pacific Petcare had prescribed for the cats said for dogs and puppies over 7 weeks. This concerned me, so I called and the vet told me that it was their practice to prescribe puppy treatments for cats. However, with the disconnect between the front desk and the doctor the day before, I didn't feel like i could trust what the desk had to say. So I called my old vet in VA and they said it sounded like a problem because the brand they use is very different between dog and cat formulas. I then called advantage and they said that it was a problem and to tell the vet to switch them because the dosages are different. I called and told the desk again that I had talked to both my old vet and advantage and they both said that it was a problem. She put me on hold and said the doctor would call me later. They called back a couple hours later, and assured me that the medicines were the same, and that everything would be all right. Read Less
