Animal Hospitals near Pacifica

“I brought my pup here for the first time today and was thoroughly impressed! This is the first vet I’ve been to who hasn’t tried to upsell me. Dr. Randle was honest and efficient. I got the test results back within a couple of hours and I got the invoice right away to submit to insurance. Daniela was very kind, efficient, and compassionate. We will be back and I’ll be transferring my other pup here too.“

“Very kind and thorough.
I was able to get care for my 17yr old dog as soon as I moved here.
Thank you“

“Staff is warm, caring, and fantastic! We have seen many veterinarians and have finally found the best doctor for our Khali.“

“Dr. Grewal is truly an exceptional veterinarian. He is incredibly honest, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about animals and their owners. You can immediately feel that he puts the well-being of your pet first, not money or unnecessary treatments. It’s so rare to find a vet you can fully trust, and Dr. Grewal is exactly that. I’m beyond grateful to have found him and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and ethical vet.“

“Joe and Jenny are very understanding of my dog’s extreme anxiety around nail trims. They talked to me about my options and gave supportive suggestions as well as listening to my suggestions. I can tell they care a lot about my pup despite how uniquely difficult she can be. Their level of experience gives me hope for Cricket.“

“The staff was courteous and friendly. The doctor was. Answered all questions and cleared all doubts.“

“Desk staff always very helpful. Vetenerians enjoy their job and show care whenever I bring my dog in.“

“My dog has been in the care of Avenues Pet Hospital for 3 years now. It can sometimes take a while to be seen for non-urgent stuff, such as the very first new client appointment and the annual exam, but otherwise my dog gets seen quite quickly as things come up (usually within a few days, and via email or phone when I have concerns but am not sure if they are worth an appointment). They did not allow people inside for a long while due to Covid safety restrictions, but we can now go inside to wait in the waiting room, and accompany our pets during their appointment. It seems silly for other reviews to complain about this when it was for a valid reason and not an arbitrary policy. The only times I can't accompany my dog is when he comes in for his regular nail trim and gland expression as an out-patient - this is done in the back where pet owners aren't allowed. FYI I get his nails done at the vet bc he has particularly long blood vessels / quicks in his nails, so I feel safer about it being done here, even though it's a roughly-done trim and I file them smooth at home. The vets are kind and I always feel like I'm getting their honest assessment. Front desk is also always very helpful. For reviews that mention they're rude - it can depend on the person tbh, but if anything I think some can be less warm than others, and I would *not* say at all that they've ever been rude. I think they're really busy nonstop and are doing their best to get through patients in an efficient manner -- and that can sometimes be interpreted as being a little cold, when really it's just being neutral. As a society we tend to think women are "cold" when they're not overly warm and are otherwise just being normal & neutral, yet don't think that of men doing the same. So let's check our gender bias, alright? One word of advice that I learned the hard way - most medications are substantially cheaper at Chewy or Costco, so ask them to send out the prescription! The vet office has zero problem doing that and it's never awkward. It's not a perfect system since Costco doesn't have everything, and Chewy takes some days for delivery (i.e., doesn't work for meds needed the same day). I don't say this as a knock against the hospital, as I think this is common practice for vets and helps keep the lights on. I instead say this as a heads up, because I didn't know this for the longest time.“

“Great Old Time Vet. Mark Restani, DVM
Been taking my fur and feather babies there for a very long time.“

“WE LOVE Camino Real Pet Clinic! All their staff is kind, attentive and caring. We were recommended last year around November to this clinic by my pup's groomer after she found some of Butter's rotten teeth that needed to take care of. Of all the clinics that I called, Camino Real was the most attentive one. They actually care about your pet. Dr. Ten, Butter's vet, made sure to check up fully on Butter and had all the necessary lab works before the procedure. Dr. Ten explained to me what to expect and kept me informed all the time on the day of the procedure. Though Butter needed to have more teeth extracted than originally planned, Dr. Ten only charged us for her hours, not per tooth. Thus, I'm so grateful to Dr. Ten and Camino Real Pet Clinic for their reasonable charge and superb service!

We've been a regular customer of Camino Real Pet Clinic ever since. We live in San Jose but I'm willing to drive Butter here for quality and caring pet services.

The clinic is a quaint historical house and it has a small parking lot in the back and along its side and one spot in the front. It can accommodate up to 5 cars, I believe. I've never had problem finding parking here.

Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Ten and the Camino Real Pet Clinic to anyone!“

“Have been looking for a good vet clinic for my fur babies for a long time. Haven't seen this level of care and respect at any other vet hospital. Dr. Randhawa was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive. Took the time to thoroughly explain everything, answered all of my questions without rushing. New and clean clinic, very quick and responsive. Highly recommend.“

“This is my vet and they’ve been great for the last year!

My only complaint would be that they won’t give a vaccine without a physical, even if my cat has recently had a physical from them.“

“Sadly I had to put down my pet hamster. They were very compassionate, first examining him to make sure there really wasn't anything that could be done. They have a private room for you to say goodbye. And they offer to make a little clay plate with your pet's footprints. The receptionist who was working was really sweet and compassionate too.“
