Imperial Beach Pet Hospital

"Our friend HIGHLY recommended this vet after trying three others; I came and left disappointed. Maybe it depends on the vet (there are multiple) but ours didn’t give our dog a positive experience. Our first vet experience in a different area was very positive, with lots of treats, loves and affirmation. This checkup consisted of one “good boy.” The vet also talked at me a lot; while very knowledgeable, I left overwhelmed with information with minimal clarification when I asked for and saw the appointment notes. The receptionist also didn’t know much when I asked questions about the med we were going to be using. For the more complicated questions, I would understand; but I was asking simpler questions I would have expected a vet receptionist to know. She doesn’t seem newer, either; like she’s been there a while. Overall, we will stick with this vet because of the knowledge and because we’re moving away within the year anyways. But for a permanent option, we would be looking elsewhere."

"took my dog in because she wasnt eating and throwing up. the staff was friendly but they misdiagnosed my dog, they tested her for parvo when she is more than a year old. they suggested surgery but i got a second opinion from my trusted vet in TJ. turns out my dog has a stomach ulcer. again they misdiagnosed my dog and suggested an expensive surgery."

"Just getting shots and meds. No problems. They could have been a bit more prompt though. Other than that we don't have any issues with them."

"Although their prices are not cheap, you will never find more kindhearted and caring vets. They have always been the best at treating your furry family with holistic and compassionate and almost state of the art tech. I wish my doctor treated me this well."

"I originally figured out about this place because of a groupon they had. We took our cat here and had a good experience. We then adopted a kitten and took her here since we found her and was about a month old. They both have now gotten all her shots from them and the staff has been very nice with me and my family,from the receptionist to the doctor. I will keep coming here for my cats needs and would recommend to others. (Picture of them on their way to a checkup)"
