Beach Vet Hospital: Valikov Ena DVM 2741 East 4th Street, Long Beach, CA 90814

"It’s hard to put into words how much Dr. Valikov Ena and her team mean to us. For one, when we rescued a Husky that we found on the street, the doctor and her team did everything they could to see her. She had a cough so the dr took the time to squeeze us in to see her outside. When we then found out she had an ear infection, the whole team supported our scared girl to make sure she felt safe, but also got the help she needed. For our old senior dog, another vet had apparently given her medicine (was taken to another dr by my mom without me knowing- I was on my honeymoon) and it made her eye very swollen. Dr. Ena again heard our concern in our voice, squeezed us in, and gave us medicine that immediately made our dog better. The doctor is very passionate about what she does and will not compromise her expertise for anyone- something I admire in a very fast, changing world. She teaches us how to take care of our animals and sometimes that means teaching us that the problem is us humans instead of our animals. We love Beach Vet. If you’ve felt judged, taken advantage of or just not care for by your vet, Dr. Ena will fix that. She’s our forever go to."

"This place is absolutely disgusting. I took my cat in for a regular check up and she left with fleas. Dr Valikov was also pushy and rude. Save your pets and go somewhere else."

"Nice, clean office. Quick service. Reasonable fees. Make sure you book an appointment. Covid restrictions mean that you must watch the vet do their work through a window. Much better than other veterinarians who make you wait in the parking lot the whole time. They were gentle and quick enough that my cat didn't even realize he got two vaccinations."

"This clinic and team are absolutely phenomenal and I cannot recommend highly enough. Dr. Ena was incredibly compassionate and clearly an expert with my elderly (and grumpy) cat, and was able to diagnose and treat his problem immediately. When I moved to Southern California, I struggled to find a vet that was able to treat my cat, and was always very nervous about the exorbitant costs of veterinary care. Dr. Ena and her staff really care for their patients, and I feel as though Dr. Ena was very conscientious of ensuring that we could obtain the necessary treatments in the most cost effective manner. Dr. Ena and her team are very friendly and welcoming, and I sincerely appreciate that Dr. Ena took the time to explain to me how to best move forward with treating my cat. I am so grateful to have found this veterinary practice."

"The staff was great, but the actual Vet was useless. I could have saved 200$ and went to the local pet shop instead.i already looked up on line what the problem was and all she did was confirm the diagnosis. I had to ask her to take blood, and run tests. She literally just looked at my dog and that was it. She didn't take a temp or check vitals. When I asked for on xray she kind of dismissed it by saying they would have to put him under for it t. I could go on and on. The waiting room is filled with cats roaming around and FLEAS EVERYWHERE! Pretty much they want to get u in and out as quick as possible. We thought the receptionist was the doctor when we got there. He was great, hes selling himself short working there."
