My Shih-Tzu/Maltese, Wally has seen Dr. Lynne Lankes since he was 3 months old and adores her, because she is like a dog Mom, so gentle and caring, as well as an outstanding Vet! We just moved back from KS and were so grateful that Dr. Lankes was the Vet, who was able to sweeze Wally in for an urgent appointment, after getting into a tangle over food with his brother, Shauny, a large Australian Blue Heeler! Both dogs are stressed over the move, but Dr. Lankes gave Wally excellent care for his wounds and he's much better. I also admire Dr. Lankes for all her volunteer services to the community and appreciate her reasonable charges. Rev Kitty Lum

Utterly useless. One of the receptionists has always been extremely rude and callous but we let it go due to how close we lived. Recently we brought our older dog in due to an increasingly awful cough. They were unable to take an x-ray due to a broken machine and nothing was done to address it, we were told we could come back when the machine was working.
We called several times to follow up, each time we were told the machine was still broken. We were offered no help to find another place or determine next steps.
Our dog's cough kept getting worse and his appetite decreased, we thought we were going to have to put him down.
We went to another vet and now have a diagnosis of heart failure and lymphoma and have started treatment.
As far as I know, Montecito Vet Center's x-ray machine is still broken. Regardless, I'll never be back.

My family has taken our pets to Dr Patrick for over 10 years as he is the best. We travel much further than the vet near our house because we trust him, and he is gentle, and explains every thing. Recently we saw Lynn Lankes there and she was fabulous! We were reluctant of not seeing Dr Patrick as he was fully booked. 5 stars for both vets. Up front staff could use some smiles and hellos.

This was my first visit and I will likely not go back again. The front staff was rude and did not even greet me when I walked in because they were busy talking to each other and on their phones. Not a good first impression. I saw Dr. Patrick (?), after sitting for 30 mins, he rushed me through the visit and seemed annoyed when I asked him questions about the medications he was prescribing to my dog. I was going to him for a second opinion and he had prescribed a different antibiotic than what was recommended from another vet and I just wanted to know his rationale--I'm a medical professional and I like to be informed. This didn't really instill much confidence with me.

Montecito used to be good a couple years ago, but I get more and more disappointed every time I go. It started with the front office staff generally being unfriendly and slow. Half the time they seem more interested in socializing with each other than helping clients. There are of course a few exceptions. We have seen Dr. Diehl for some time, and while I do like him, I can't put up with the frustrations of the rest of the clinic. It is like they expanded their services, but still have the same size clinic and parking lot. A couple times we've gone, and there is nowhere to park. And the very small waiting room is packed. The last thing you want to deal with when you have a stressed pet is a tiny space full of other pets and people.

Long time dog owner and I really like bringing my dogs to Dr Diehl. He helped me and my 13 year old go through lymphoma when it was very important to have a Vet that was concerned with your pet and you as the owner too. Dr Patrick is also on my list of who to go to when my pets need to be seen! Would recommend to others

Love the Montecito Vet and their staff. They have cared for all my show Keeshond dogs . They will fit you in if it is an emergency and always have fair prices and also don't try to sell you unnecessary procedures to make money. I just lost a litter of puppies and they couldn't of been more kind and understanding to me and my dog. A note I was referred to them By Joanne Reed who is the AKC non sporting breeder of the year and she uses them for all her show dogs care.
