State of the art. Fabulously kind people. Skilled, smart, current vets, front office, and techs. Our gog has many complex problems. They've kept him going ten years. Always available. Great electronic record system so I don't have to recite the whole history with each new person. I can't name names. So many have cared for our pets. Read Less

If anyone needs to take their pet to the vet, I definitely recommend Conejo Valley Vet. We had to bring in our new puppy because she had a seizure and they were so compassionate and knowledgeable. I was so amazed by how kind they were. And without any mention of money they made it a point to save money where possible. They text and call you with updates and are patient enough to answer all of your questions. These people wanted our dog to be okay as much as we did. These are GOOD people who truly care about animals. We had Dr.Watrobski and she and her team were absolutely amazing. They even gave Athena a little toy to play with and take home. Read Less

Kiki and I were there last night, because I could tell something was off about her. She suffers from renal failure, so pretty much everything is cause for concern. The place is huge and very nice, aesthetically speaking. I felt like we had come to a place with state of the art technology. The staff is prompt, professional, and compassionate (considering it was 4 in the morning and that was the very last place I wanted to be). Veterinary medicine is expensive. Scream it, punch a pillow, tell a houseplant how much you hate it, and move on. They don't overcharge compared to any other emergency clinic, and they will work with you as far as money goes. I knew walking in what I could spend, and I told them flat out. The doctor told me what they could do on my budget based on what she wanted to find out, and we went for it. She was friendly and no-nonsense (exactly what I wanted at oh-my-god o'clock in the morning) and we came up with a game plan from there. If you're reading this review, odds are you need or needed their services. Always remember, there will be more money. It's inconvenient, but you can call your auto loan company and ask for an extension, or cable, DWP. People appreciate that you're helping your companion. Don't let a temporary inconvenience rob you of your lifelong friend. There's only one of them. Best of luck to anyone who finds them self there for emergencies.Read Less

Biggest joke of a vet I have ever been to. I placed a pharmacy order on the 13th, called in today, 5 days later, to ask if it was ready. Was told it was ready. Came in to find out that it's not even at the hospital and could not give me an eta when it would be here. My dog I adopted was a stray and is riddled with parasites from being out in the wild so long. So needless to say this medicine is a necessity. The communication is a joke, and the pharmacy is a joke. DO NOT TAKE YOUR ANIMALS HERE! Read Less

This man is a cheat!!!   He is a lousy vet.  Worthless.  He overcharges.   He comes up with remedies that are not necessary and in our opinion it is just so he can bill more.  He is late for appointments - and in fact on our first appointment he never bothered to showed up- instead he sent a tech.    He "treated" my son's new horse and cost us well over a thousand dollars for worthless x-rays and shots when he knew darn well from the very start that the horse was lame and yet he continued to BS us into treatments that were absolutely not necessary and a waste of time.  He took complete advantage of a young guy who didn't have experience with horses and he knew he could railroad him in to spending bucks.  After weeks of treatment  he announced-  " well the horse has a career ending injury".  He knew that from the start and just wanted bucks.  Word is on the street that he is hurting for money.  He takes advantage of people.  He spent most of his time on the phone wandering around chit chatting with whomever is on the phone and ignoring US the paying customer!!!   What a waste of our time and money.  He ignored every question presented to him.  He is RUDE, arrogant and unprofessional.  In fact- our first appointment which was made specifically with him because he had such great word of mouth recommendations...... instead, he sent out a tech but charged for a vet.  On one occasion he showed up in pitch black dark after we sat and waited for him for hours and hours and no one answered the phone after 5pm.  Yet he showed up in the dark.  What the heck?  Out of control.  FIND ANOTHER REAL VET.

Yesterday was such a difficult day for our family as we made our decision to put our wonderful dog Skye to sleep. The team led by Hillary Lookingbill were professional, supportive and compassionate and gave us the time we needed to help us through this very difficult and emotional decision. My two sons my wife and I stayed with Skye as we let him go ... Hillary was amazing and we can't thank you enough for making this just a little bit easier. Read Less
