Veterinarians near Altadena

“My family has been bringing our cats here for decades. The reason is the superb care they receive from the staff. Highly professional, extremely friendly (both to animals and humans). I highly recommend this place.“

“We recently switched to Altadena pet hospital for our two dogs and two cats and we really love it. We used to go to a vet in echo park that while they had so many five star reviews, it felt like everytime we went we were seeing new doctors and having to re-explain our pets medical history. It also always felt like they cared more about the money than the well being of our pets. Dr. Sahi is very knowledgeable and friendly. Our cat has some chronic health issues and he has been very attentive with him - researching alternative treatment routes and finding the right path for him. He also will only recommend something if it's truly worth doing for your pet, rather than trying to upsell you unnecessary or risky treatment. They are a small town vet, so the waiting room is small, parking lot is small, and sometimes there is a longer wait to see the doctor - but I've always experienced great customer service and a super friendly staff. Anytime I call I am on hold for no more than a few minutes if at all - which is very rare for vets in this area. One of our dogs is also very nervous and dog reactive. They said he can wait in the car until his appointment time and then use the side entrance to avoid seeing other pups which we love. I talked to a few folks in the waiting room and one couple had been coming there for 13 years, and the other couple 10 years. That was a huge selling point for us!“

“This is a great business. They are always friendly, helpful, and professional whether you need an appointment, prescription refill, or just have a question, they are there to help. Our veterinarian was Dr Navia. She is a superb clinician, has great surgical skills and is very gentle with animals. She treated our dog for a bad heart valve and heart failure over a couple of years. When his disease progressed and we decided on euthanasia to prevent suffering she was very skillful at the procedure and provided us emotional support as well. Everyone at the facility is service oriented. You will never feel like you are bothering them and never feel like they are in it for the money. A simply great group of people. As a retired family doctor I give them my best recommendation,“

“This office is amazing! The phone staff is kind and helpful. We were helped promptly in the office and Dr. Dong and her assistants were kind, and knowledgeable. I wish that it was closer (we are in Bakersfield) because your office is wonderful!“

“I wouldn't easily trust any other vets for the sake of my dogs' health other than Dr Christina Fan at the Pasadena Pets Vet. Very knowledgeable yet honest with her opinions and recommendations, always giving two sides of the story, so as a pet owner, I am able to make a sound decision weighing out the pros and cons. knowledge and integrity are two key factors for a good vet.“

“We've been bringing our dogs to Dr. Gil and staff for many years now. Very patient and caring individuals. They recently had a renovation and the office looks great!“

“All of the staff were very compassionate, professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Chang confidently diagnosed our dog's eye problem and provided helpful information regarding his care and treatment.“

“Today was our first visit. We found the staff professional, friendly, kind and patient with our squirrelly pup. I think we have found a new vet. Thank you to the staff at Crescenta Canada Pet Hospital“

“We brought our dog to Modern Animal on the recommendation of our daughter, who brings her three cats there. Although it is over an hour drive (or more - SoCal traffic), it is worth it. The staff are friendly and caring. Dr. Kang was wonderful.“

“The doctors are great here. We have been going to them 15 years and I feel like they have added years to the lives of my dogs. I had two labs live to be 18 and 17 when both diagnosed with bad forms of cancer. I think the kindest thing they ever did was to do surgery on a little poodle we found that was a mess. Tumor covering her lower body they examined her and said it is not pretty but we can remove it! No promises made but were straight with us that if they did not think they could save they would tell us. They did the surgery and we had a new dog that gave us joy for five more years. The last thing is they are also very compassionate when it is time to say goodbye even when you don't want to. All this makes them the best vet combo ever.“

“Honest and affordable care. The dr immediately diagnosed and treated my pup's ear infection and you could see my dog's instant relief. So grateful to have access to this local vet. Definitely recommend! (And please support small businesses!)“

“I highly recommend Hillcrest Pet Hospital. The entire staff is knowledgeable and very nice. Your pet will feel loved and taken care of.“

“It’s nice to totally trust your vet. It’s also so clear how much everybody loves animals here. They’re so sweet to our cats and take all the time we need to answer our questions.“

“This place takes forever. Expect a slow process. 2pm appointment is actually a 2:30-2:45. Overall, you’ll be there for an average of 2 hours for a check-up“

“I've been working with a lot of different vets as I travel a lot, but no one comes close to Dr. Ben. His energy, helpfulness, attitude, and kindness are unparalleled. Do yourself a favor and work with him to cut through the bullshit.“

“I'm so happy I brought my Lucifer to have his neutering done here. The process was seamless, and the pricing is honestly the best you will find in Southern California.“

“I brought my Frenchie here for his exam and last set of vaccines. He was treated with so much love. Elena and Paola in the front desk are wonderful! Elena was thorough on what my pup needed and passed along all my questions to the vet before speaking with him. I will be bringing him here for his care.“

“I have been going to Dr Tang since the mid '90's, when I had a pet cockatiel with my two sons, and more recently since 2007, when my husband and I got our first dog. He saved our dog, Spencer about 15 years ago. He'd had a seizure out of the blue, when he'd accidentally eaten rat poison outside without our knowing it. Dr Tang not only saved Spencer, but that dog went on to live another 10 years almost! Most recently our dog Popper has some autoimmune disease, and Dr Tang has seen us almost 10 times over the past 2 months, trying his best to figure out how to treat this 7-year-old (young!) dog. We have all the confidence in Dr Tang's ability, expertise, and most importantly in his compassion. As others have mentioned, Dr Tang doesn't have great bedside manner with the humans who visit his practice, but he so obviously cares about our pets (his patients, as he said this morning), that I will keep going to him forever. And he is so reasonable, I sometimes wonder how he stays in business! God Bless Dr Tang!“

“I was completely impressed with their professionalism and customer service.
The ambiance here is always inviting and comfortable.
Both my furrbabies receive great care here!
My babygirl just got spayed & they called for a follow up , much appreciated.“

“We should have left a review when we first saw Dr. Lynn a couple of years ago. We had taken our cat to his primary vet for a regular checkup when they looked into his mouth and told us that it looked like he had cracked his tooth / line of blood at gum line... but sent us home to wait for their cleaning appt / x-rays that was about 2 months away? No. I searched online until I specifically found a dentist, I found Dr. Lynn. Marlene scheduled us almost immediately. Our first meeting with Dr. Lynn, we instantly knew she was someone you could trust. She let us know immediately that our cat was not having a crisis, most likely food dye (eye roll to primary vet... never again for specialty work). Fast forward to today, we just had our second cleaning with Dr. Lynn. Our cat is a pure breed, he is very smart and very sensitive so it can be a very difficult time for all of us. But with Marlene's attention to detail and pre/post appointment reviews and check-in's, and Dr. Lynn's exceptional work (we appreciate the pre/post tooth images, thorough analysis and resulting, noticeable clean, white teeth) we just feel so good knowing our baby is in the best hands, and that we have someone we can trust long-term. Thank you Marlene and Dr. Lynn!“

“Small practice, just 1 vet and 2-3 techs so you see the same people every time. No upsells, just information and good care for your furry friend“

“The front staff are kind a supportive, the vet tech came out and took the time to love on and relax my dog, and the vet was thorough and communicative about my dog's history and next steps. They're quick with scheduling and have answers for questions like what's the best pet insurance. We (my dog and I) couldn't more highly recommend.“

“Other than the long line (that's worth the wait) they service the pets like If they belong to them, good work people!!!????“

“Great experience help my dog alot I change my mind . Fast response and help my dog. Definitely coming back again soon.“

“I really like the staff here. They clearly care about animals. The veterinarians are attentive and take their time with their patients. I very much appreciate that I didn't feel like the doctor wasn't rushing me through to get to the next patient.“

“I have used primarily Dr. Brown, but a friend told me Dr. Jones is great and has experience with Thoroughbreds, so we decided to try her. Dr. Jones has great patient care, she is friendly, she is informative, on time, patient around children (my 4 year old was bouncing off the walls lol) and great with horses and their overall care! Highly recommend this practice! The vets here are wonderful and very kind. Thanks so much again!“
