I am so thankful to have found Dr. Canton and Animal Ophthalmology. I have two Pugs that have been treated here and I always get excellent care. My rescue had such bad eyes he wasn't producing any natural tears and was completely blind. With ongoing treatment he now has normal tear production and has regained some sight! It has been wonderful. My dogs are treated so well, with such calm and compassion. Read Less

The best animal eye specialist experience ever and as a Boston Terrier owner for more than two decades, I am quite the expert customer. From the way my call was handled and the treatment in the office - superb! I called asking for a “timely appointment” , asked what was going on, placed on abrief hold while receptionist consulted with the doctor, seen within 4 office hours! Everyone was very friendly, professional, personable, knowledgeable and exceptionally caring!💕 FYI - the „timely appointment” at the animal eye specialist in Pleasant Hill was 7 office days, but they also did not care to ask “what was going on “ Read Less

I went in with my sister-in-law for a routine check up for her yorkies eye examination. The appointment was set for 11:30 and the doctor didn't enter the room until 12:01, and examined the dogs eye for maybe 5 minutes!! We waited 30 minutes for a 5 minute appointment and then was charged $179 dollars! The worst part is my sister-in-law is a regular customer, the doctor knows the dog, he knows the dogs eyes condition, and he still insists on see the dog every 6-8 weeks and charges her the $179 dollar fee every time!! The prescription (eye gel) that is prescribed works but he refuses to refill it until she brings the dog in for another check up. Six years of this and he still insists that she brings her in!! I had no idea this was going on until today. Horrible way to treat loyal customers. Read Less

I schedule an appointment for my puppy to see Dr. David Canton to check if my puppy's eyes were ok.  My concern was that my puppy who was 6 months when we got him could not see well because he bark every time we approached him and seemed insecure ever since we got him.  Also, he had a discharge coming out from his eyes. My Vet referred me to Dr. Canton and after reading the Yelp reviews I felt confident that he can help with my puppy's issue.  When I called I spoke to a lady and explained my puppies issues and asked for a quote and was quoted $95 to $250.  I schedule the appointment and brought my puppy in.  the receptionist who lacks people skills seemed a little uptight and not friendly at all but I was ok with that because I was there for my Puppy to see Dr. Canton.  Dr. Canton is very nice and professional he examined my dog very well and spent sometime with us to give us some insight as to why my puppy was insecure and skittish. Dr. Canton said my dogs vision was fine but his eyes were inflamed a bit and prescribed eye drops and an ointment.  Dr. Canton said that after my puppy was done with the eye drops that he would most likely continue with the eye ointment only but that he would like to re-check his eyes in a couple of weeks. After the visit was over I was shocked that the visit cost was a bit over $250 although it included the prescriptions for his inflammation it hit my pocket book pretty hard.  As the charming receptionist was ready to schedule the the follow up visit I asked how much that visit would cost and she quoted me $150 so I opted not to schedule the follow up since the Doctor said that after the eye drops all my puppy would probably need is the Ointment gel.  The receptionist did not seem to like that I did not schedule the follow up appointment at all and said that the dog must be seemed by either Dr Canton or my regular Vet to re check his yes or to get refills.  To defuse the situation right then and there I said ok and left.  I called yesterday, 2 1/2 weeks after the visit and left a message on voice mail to the Dr. Canton to call me back to give him an update on his patient.  The receptionist called me back and said that she wanted to give the Doctor a full message on my puppies situation and reiterated that my puppy will not be getting refills for anything unless he is seen by a Vet.  All I want is to talk to the Doctor with out her getting involved.  I want to discuss his progress over the phone and possibly continue with eye ointment since I still have plenty of ointment left .  At this point I am not sure how well she is explaining to the Doctor what I told her on my behalf.  It really is disappointing that the Doctor's office is ran that way.  I hope that Dr. Canton would want to return my call even if it's for a minute just to give him a progress report on his patient.

Dr.C and his staff treated my dog Minnie for several years with utmost care, compassion and professionalism.Like one other "reviewer" here; my dog also came to this clinic with many, many health problems - not just ones related to her eyes. Dr.C was always so caring and understanding in his assessment of her and his recommendations for her continued care; I can honestly not find enough words to describe their importance in giving Minne several more years of quality life, that she would not otherwise have had.Minnie is now also dead, since about a year ago; but when I saw that Animal Ophthalmology Services was here on Yelp, I thought that I needed to share a bit of mine and Minnnie's very, very good experiences with these incredible people.I highly recommend Dr.C and his staff - do not hesitate to turn the care of your pet over to this clinic!

My doggy was referred here because of a corneal infection.  When I called to make the appointment, I asked how much the service were.  I love my pet, but I also have a budget and bills to pay (don't we all?).  I was quoted $95 to $200 for a visit.  Seemed a little steep, but I had to know what was going on, so I scheduled the appointment.  They were very nice about letting my daughter bring our doggie and I could pay by phone.Well I almost had a heart attack when I was called with a $450 charge for the first visit.  When the Doctor called me (a nice touch) to personally go over the visit, I stressed the fact that my financial resources were being tapped and I needed to know the full extent of this situation.  Needless to say I was shocked when one of his prescriptions was over $95, on top of the visit.  Then the doctor scheduled another visit for the following day.  So another $200 later he says that our doggie needs surgery.Thank god our vet told me that our doggie wouldn't have survived surgery due to his advanced age.  I felt like this clinic could have been as honest and we could of spent the last days of his life spending time with him rather than running back and forth to Vacaville for treatments that wouldn't have saved him.Just like people - I suggest a second opinion.  I will say that the service was professional and helpful and they provided complete, thorough and accurate documenation also.  It was very heartwarming to get a condolence card from them about our doggy.  They must have followed up with my regular vet and found out about the passing, because we didn't contact them.  So that shows that they care.
