We have been going to Santa Cruz Animal Hospital for several years now. We love Dr. Stanton and she has given all our babies great care and still does! We first met her and the staff at the hospital when our regular vet was out of town and our 10 yr old girl Sophie (yellow lab / german shepherd mix) stated acting funny at home and became very very bloated. We called several places and Santa Cruz was the only vet clinic who answered and told us to come in. The end result was Sophie's abdomen was twisted and Dr. Stanton did emergency surgery, which saved Sophie's life. We ended up having Sophie for two more years before we lost her to cancer. We credit Dr. Stanton and the staff for this extra years. Since that time our vet retired and we have remained with Dr. Stanton and Santa Cruz. She has seen us through the loss of Sophie, the additions of Jackson, Stella, Emily and now Virgil (all rescues)! She also helped us to say goodbye to Sophie, Jackson and Stella when their time came. I can say she and the staff were compassionate, supportive and understanding during those times. Being honest, I will say they are more expensive than some others, but the care is exceptional. They have always found a way to fit us in when we had a concern or worry and Doc took the time to speak with us by phone when necessary. You can't go wrong with the doctors here.
The receptionists and all staff and Doctors are great. I am always able to book an appointment within days from my call, very short time in the waiting room, the office is clean, and Dr's and nurses are gentle and thorough with our fur baby.
I have a 12 year old cat that has heart disease now. We have sold the house and planning to our rv across the country and I don't know how I'm going to take care of her but I will go to all ends to do this. Everyone in this office has been just wonderful and showed great concern for my Tinkerbell. They truly are the best and work with Blue Pearl as well. I will miss them all
