We brought our little hamster in for what turned out to be a trauma for his eye, which had to be removed. They were so kind and loving. They boarded him overnight free of charge, since our appointment was late in the day and surgery would be the next morning. I highly recommend them. Read Less

I really appreciate the dedication and experience of Dr. Cordy at Harbor Animal Hospital! He has rendered excellent care to my elderly springer spaniel. He also provided excellent care for my other springer who passed away. The facility is extremely clean and they are able to do many tests right at the facility without having to send them out and wait for days for results! Dr. Cordy is an excellent diagnostician and I know my dog is in great hands! Thanks Harborview Animal Hospital! Read Less

I have belief that the veterinary staff are competent and qualified. And I have been bringing my pets for the last 17 years to this veterinary office. Cats and dogs. Indeed, up until 2013, I would have rated this place a 5+. However, the numerous visits since have been less than personal. (Some staff members excepted). I was outraged recently when, during a recent visit to get a $52.00 physical exam for a doggy's upset tummy, lasting no more than 10 minutes (exam and history total time), I emerged with a small plastic tube, given to me by the technician to collect a fecal exam ... only to have it snatched out of my hands by the cashier because I refused to pay for a fecal exam until I brought the fecal sample in. When I asked what I was to do in collecting and bringing a sample in, her response was to say "you are on your own". I couldn't get out of that place fast enough ... and I noted that in the end, I paid nearly $200.00 for an exam, antibiotics, probiotics and canned food for his tummy. NO XRAYS, NO MICROSCOPIC STUDIES, NO BLOOD (not that these all weren't suggested in written form, to the tune of over $600 ... So ... when u don't want those studies, they mark in the file you have refused. It is obvious that this office is trained to "Mark up" whenever possible, upsell the suggested necessary diagnostic tools (like suggesting a urinalysis at a cost of $50 during a digestive/bowel issue. I made note of the time I left... time to get a new veterinarian. Read Less

We have been taking our pets here for several years now. Two people had recommended this practice. On our first visit one of our cats was given a better diagnosis than we had received elsewhere. One of the techs picked him up and hugged him. This was the beginning of the wonderful treatment, of both our pets and us as well. Dr Cordy and staff has always been courteous and accommodating. We have come to trust that they have animals' welfare at heart. When we have had to euthanize a couple of our cats over the years, everyone was sympathetic and understanding. We received plants and cards. We have had a couple of miracles also, as with our 12 year old dog Winston, whom we adopted 2 years ago. He had a problem and we were advised that recovery would be lengthy. Of course we have people pray; that and the skill at Harbor Animal Hospital ended in a great result. We are just sorry they moved from Barrington to Warren; cats hate to go in cars. But we still bring our pets there. Read Less

I brought my elderly dog to HAH after a very bad experience at another clinic. Not only was an enormous amount of time spent with me reviewing my dog's health history, the follow up was incredible! And a viable plan for my pets' care was suggested, without any pressure for tests etc.... I am not an easy customer, I question everything and was always treated with respect and my numerous questions answered. When it was time to say good bye to my 17 year old best friend, the staff was exceptional, because I couldn't let go!! They cared about her and me and if I ever replace my pet, I will be a loyal customer to Harbor Animal Hospital. Read Less

Love Harbor Animal Hospital and all the kind, caring staff there! Bridget and Eamon love going to doggie day care where they can play both indoors and outside. The facilities are extremely clean, and we appreciate that! We have also kenneled our dogs there and found this, too, to be an excellent experience. It is an added bonus that not only can we view the dogs on the live web cam, we also get a written report on their stay. Having a groomer right next door is another convenience. After their kennel stay, a staff member will walk the dogs over to Terri as long as we have scheduled a grooming appointment with her. Read Less

I brought my 15 year old Russian Blue kitten to be checked out because she was peeing and drinking more than usual after many tests and $500 later I was told she had diabetes I was instructed to change your diet and give her insulin twice a day I was also told to do testing on her urine at home which I found very difficult there was no other suggestion to do anything better so I decided to bring her in once a week to have them help me do it this was very stressful for Kitty because they had to catheterize her each time then I was told I had to leave it there a whole day so they could get a better reading which I did when I brought her home that night she was so dehydrated she drank a whole bowl of water in about 10 seconds she then threw it all up she cried for quite a while and I had to calm her down I realized she hadn't eaten or drinking anything all day long for all those hours she was there probably due to the fact that she was very nervous being there no one bothered to tell me this or even call to find out how she was doing the doctor that had been seeing her doctor Deegan I found out was now on maternity leave and I could no longer see her I had to see the other doctor when I brought her in for her next check up the technician took her in the back to test her and said she had a cut on her rear and I did not know how it got there they cleaned it and brought her back out to me I wanted to speak to the doctor and was told that I had that making a special appointment to see him I asked if you could please call me at least this he never did I never bother to call me at all of course I really wanted to talk to him about the condition of my kitty and I did not appreciate that at all so I decided to go somewhere else I got all her records and made an appointment at another veterinarian they told me I did not have to leave her there all day that if I was able to I could bring her in every four to five hours and they would test her blood that way rather than stressing out so badly by leaving her there all day this I did and it worked out much much better I had wished that they would have suggested this to me I have never received another call from that doctor to this day I am very upset and disappointed in the treatment of my kitty I will not go back there and I do not recommend this place at all Read Less

Dr. Kaufman, Karen and the entire staff are amazing. My Lilah was well-cared for during her surgery and the day she spent at Harbor Animal Hospital. Great follow up and service. They really care! I think this is the best vet in all of Southern California. Worth the drive, if you don't live in the South Bay. Wish I had used them when I live in the OC. The best VET ever. By the way, this is the first animal hospital I have ever entered that didn't smell like animal. So clean and beautiful. Read Less
