My dog Gabe got quick and decisive action when I brought him in with a high temperature. They knew what to do including sending him to a 24 hr hospital because he needed to be watched overnight. Gabe is on the road to recovery. Thank you Dr. Yuan and office folks.

Dr. Yuan has been my dog's vet for years and I highly recommend him and the center. They care and do an excellent job. I was originally sent here by a neighbor who is an emergency room doctor. I figured if a doctor brings her dogs here, that's a good sign and it was.

The staff is always super friendly and the hours are incomparable - they are open 7 days a week and until 8:00 pm Monday - Thursday! I would definitely recommend them to keep your pet happy and healthy.

Dr. George is a wonderful vet: very thorough and loving with out pets. The staff at the front desk are kind, overall, but there are times we have felt somewhat disappointed with their service.

Dr. Biljani has been my vet for years. She is thoughtful, cares about my dogs and gives me options for all treatments so I can make the best choice for my pet care. Always satisfied.

I don't usually write reviews, but I am today because I am very happy to have found a wonderful vet. Dr. Bijlani is AMAZING!!! She is honest, caring, sweet, and knowledgeable. I just got a new cat. She made sure to give her vaccines and proper work up. She was conscientious of cost and was very honest in what she needed. I feel lucky to have found such a wonderful vet. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. Bijlani

They are evil. My dog was old and dying, what office would deny my dog treatment with his Dr. after 16 years because I complained about the constant price gouging. Well that is exactly what they did. When my boy passed away about a week later I called to leave a message for Dr. Hernandez telling her about his passing and how grateful I was for the 16 years of care. They refused and not only did they refuse they lied and said Dr. Hernandez didn't want to speak to me, which I'm positive was a lie. Who would do that? Them. They... read more

They don't respect your time & very expensive. Dr. Baum examined my dog for 4 min at a cost of $96 When I pointed out I had waited 45 min past my appt., he got defensive. Total bill was $349. Allergy shot, meds for yeast infection in ears & removed ear hair. Beware 

Business response:

We do not have a Dr. Baum at our hospital.

The doctor here is wonderful the practice is a disgrace. All they care about is money. After spending $600 and finding out my Boy needed a drug that they charged three dollars a pill for and my veterinary pharmacy charged one dollar I asked for a prescription which they gave me only because of Dr. Hernandez, who is wonderful I asked them to call the pharmacy and place the prescription they would not do it. They said it wasn't their policy anymore that I would have to mail in the prescription which I did the Mail in Los Angel... read more
