    I’m so grateful for this Vet Hospital. The staff is knowledgeable and caring. My cat needs nail trims often since she won’t let me do it. I’m there fairly regularly and it’s always a pleasure. For both of us! Dr. Hayk Hakobyan is the absolute best vet I’ve ever seen. His love of animals and concern for my Violet are very obvious. He’s straightforward and clear.

    Huge shoutout to Dr. Hayk and the team at Urban Animal Hospital! After struggling to find a vet who could handle my reactive dog and his ear infections, Dr. Hayk at Urban Animal Hospital was a lifesaver. While other clinics failed to clean his ears even with sedation and muzzle, Dr. Hayk’s team used a skillful, calm approach to get the job done quickly and safely. Dr. Hayk used a gentle blanket-wrap technique to successfully clean his ears and apply medication. The entire staff is professional and highly trained. If you have a difficult or nervous pet, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!
