Dr. Palmquist is an excellent veterinarian who truly cares about animals. He’s not driven by money and he provides high quality care at very fair prices. The staff are also very kind and helpful!

Dr. Palmquist is truly a godsend. I gladly drive over an hour to his clinic, despite having countless veterinarians right here in West Hollywood. His rare combination of heart and expertise makes him the ultimate last resort when you’ve exhausted every other option to help your pet. Although trained in Western veterinary medicine, he is equally skilled in Eastern medicine. When conventional treatments fail, he offers alternative therapies rooted in Chinese medicine that most veterinarians simply don’t know about. Dr. Palmquist saved my dog’s life and dramatically improved her quality of life. I am endlessly grateful to know him.

Dr. Palmquist works magic with my rescue dogs without giving them a lot of chemicals but a natural holistic way. Everyone at Centinela is really great and helpful! I can't thank you then enough! Just hope they have an office near the San Fernando valley...

Dr. Johnson is rude and condescending and will cut you off in the middle of your speaking at least 3 times. All of then other staff were sweethearts and very helpful/attentive. Be aware that you can not go inside with your pet they have you sit outside while everything takes place.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Leaving a TEN STAR review !!!!
Where to start. As a LA girl born and raised, I know prices for vet care are absolutely outrageous in the surrounding area. The care isn’t even care but a rotating door for some doctors. And even if you pay an arm and a leg, there is no relationship Building with you or education on what is going on with your dog…….NOT HERE…..Fair prices, attentive staff, and a heart centered doctor who cares holistically for your babies. He won’t try to sell something you don’t need without trying the most affordable solution first. Other places will upsell and just for being in a better area, and will Sell you things just to make you spend and feed on your fear and vulnerability, but here they really are trying to find a solution for the issue. Right now we’re trying to figure out if it’s just fleas or allergies that’s caused him to chew on his skin. The doctor offered so many options and helped us pick something reasonable and highlighted some holistic solutions if this doesn’t help. You truly have to pay extra for a space that uplifts alternative medicine, and here it is just part of the practice that the doctor upholds for his center. The wait was about as average as a Drs visit and I was able to make an appointment that morning for the same day.
To address why we have to wait outside :
The doctor has had multiple Covid infections and almost DIED. He cannot take the vaccine because of adverse reaction to his system so for the safety of this doctor’s beautiful soul we have to wait outside. Honestly, it was not a bother as the day was nice and breezy. He sat with us for a bit and explained all of this compassionately sharing his experience…..WHILE on top of EDUCATING US on what was happening with our dog and why. We felt so at ease after what had been some stressful days. Thank you Dr Palmquist for such a wonderful experience we will be coming here for life. 🖤🤲🏽✨

First appt for my puppy. The doctor didn’t even bother to give him a full examination, he had an ear infection which wasn’t noticed. Also you are not allowed to come into the clinic, you have to wait outside while your pet is being examined. If I had been told that when I made the booking I would not have come. Really really disappointed and won’t be going again.
