VCA All Pets Hospital

"It seems like there is only one vet here and she is clearly over worked and I feel great sympathy for her so its the corporate leadership that I am going to complain about. I have been here for over 1.5 hrs for my appointment and the cost is astronomical. I have to skip some of my dogs treatment because the estimate is insanely high. Thousands of dollars! I miss the old All Pets Hospital that I have been going to for probably 10 years."

"Yikes. Service has gone downhill majorly and cost has gone up. The renowned staff that made this place incredible all left, and patients weren't notified. The exam rooms were water damaged, filthy and stripped for parts on my visit. When presented with the estimated cost, a bunch of items were tacked on which weren't discussed with me. The vet that finally saw my dog after a 1hr 20min wait (beyond our appointment time) then fed my dog a handful of marshmallows without asking me, like what the heck? Absolutely absurd conduct and not okay. A vet of all people should check if it's ok to feed someone's dog something. Bizarre, expensive, slow, and genuinely not the standard of care this place used to uphold. After 5 years of taking my pup here, we won't be back."

"I originally posted this review on Yelp - reposting it here to boost visibility for rat owners who might be considering All Pets. At this time, fellow rat keepers tell me that All Pets has, if anything, declined in its quality of care since I last visited them. I have a lot of compassion for vets and hate leaving negative reviews, but I still cry for my lost pets every day and I've decided maybe this review will at least help someone else. In September 2021 a gravely serious illness befell my pet rats. I'm an experienced rat keeper and I knew right away it was something unusual, likely (sadly) brought in by recent accidental contact with other rats. They developed severe pneumonia that wasn't responding to standard care. Their symptoms perfectly matched Sendai Virus (a highly contagious and often fatal illness). I placed an emergency appointment at All Pets, where I had received good care before, and brought in my two sickest rats. After I was already there, I was told I would be charged for 2 emergency appointments. The vet barely looked at either rat & was cold and dismissive of my concerns, claiming this was just a common respiratory illness (mycoplasma, which virtually all pet rats carry). I was chastised for administering emergency standard treatment on my own... then prescribed duplicate medication (with dosage info for only 1 rat) & told to continue with a less aggressive form of treatment than I'd already been doing. Which I had already done, and which already hadn't worked. I requested a test for Sendai. I requested antibiotic injections, oxygen therapy, or anything to boost their chances of survival. I was refused. The vet didn't seem to care at all. The visit took about 20 minutes. To add insult to injury, I was charged almost $500 for this visit. Both rats died a few days later despite my round the clock care. I took one of the remaining rats - also dying - to another emergency vet. Despite offering all the treatments All Pets refused, they were unable to save him, but they were horrified when I told him of the treatment my rats had received at All Pets. The vet said this was the worst rodent illness she'd seen in 20 years of working with rats and couldn't believe anyone could mistake it for mycoplasma. She felt the care I'd been offering before visiting All Pets was BETTER than what they had recommended. My little friend's body was sent out for testing, and - lo and behold - he had Sendai Virus. All Pets may not have been able to save my rats due to their severe illness, but there was no reason to gaslight me & ignore my concerns. There was no reason to price gouge me for nonexistent care. I left All Pets feeling like my family was completely alone, with no added tools to comfort or help my tiny friends. I have since started seeing another vet who takes the time to listen to me, respects my knowledge of my own pets, and actually seems to love working with my rat family."

"We love Dr. Gilbert and all the staff here! Our puppy has had quite a few ongoing health issues since we got her and they’ve taken such great care of her. They are always kind, responsive, helpful, and talk through all your concerns without making you feel rushed. I also appreciate that they follow up the next day after they see her to make sure she’s doing ok. Would highly recommend if you’re looking for a vet."
