I've always had a great experience here. All of the techs are great with my Cat who is older and has had skin issues. And all of the Vets are great. They have done an amazing job with this location. If you are looking for a vet in San Diego I would recommend them for cats and dogs. I bring all three of my animals here because they are top notch and trustworthy professionals.

Report
Had spay appointment booked for my 7 month old pup one month in advance. $50 deposit. Office quoted out the door pricing for affordable care referred by humane society. 2 days before I printed paperwork that had several extra yes or no procedures one of which is IV fluids while under anesthesia. Not included in surgery which regulates blood pressure. Disappointed and confused. Xld appointment and they refused deposit return. This is delaying my spay now. Waiting to get another appointment elsewhere. Not exactly affordable.
