Secor Mark DVM 31441 Avenida De La Vista, San Juan Capistrano, CA 92675

"A bad review doesn't have to be "trash talk"; in some cases, like mine, it might be the truth. My review is based on my experience with Dr. Secor way back in 1989 and again in 2012. Was thinking about both incidents while cleaning my horses' stalls this morning and decided to post my opinion. Should've done it a long time ago."

"Dr. Secor and his team are the greatest asset any horse owner in Orange County could have. The office assistants are prompt, courteous, and caring of your situation, whatever you may be calling for. Dr. Watanabe is a complete sweetheart, and very gentle when giving immunizations. Dr. Bowen is the only vet who ever believed me when I said my horse was allergic to nature, and helped me get a blood panel done to properly eliminate all of the things causing my mare's hair to fall out (which was almost everything, to be honest). When my mare's eye started having issues, Dr. Bowen was out there with a gentle voice to explain everything that was going on, how to administer all of the drugs needed, and was always open to phone conversations on what to do next. When the eye went completely white, Dr. Secor came out to the barn to do an in-field eye removal surgery, with Dr. Bowen assisting. He even let a gaggle of vet techs at my barn watch the procedure and ask questions the whole time. His patience with my mare throughout the whole ordeal was insurmountable. He was quick to answer any questions, and open to all the stupid questions of a freaked out horse owner like myself. Just this week, Secor was back at my barn to diagnose the same mare with dermatitis in both back legs. (Yes, she's a walking disaster whom I love with all my heart.) Again, Dr. Secor was extremely patient, and provided me with golden nuggets of his vast knowledge on how to heal the infection. I would say I would give my left eye to Secor and his team for everything they do, but my horse has already done that."

"I as well stumbled upon these reviews while looking up Dr Secor's contact info....and can not resist the opportunity to stand up on this soapbox and say that Dr Secor is beyond awesome. He was referred to me by my friend Teresa of Modjeska Ranch Rescue in my time of need, I didn't know what to do... ( I had met Dr Secor once several years ago when I had a horse that he tended to once) when I contacted his office, the woman who answered was wonderful, I was very upset and she was comforting, I recently "adopted" a couple of goats because they needed a home, and one got very sick and was fading very fast...Dr Secor saved him....went out of his way to help....I mean come on...Dr Secor takes care of horses right?, this is a goat....well, he obviously believes in his heart that all lives matter, and he saved this one!!! Even though it looked hopeless....Dr Secor has a heart of gold!"

"I saw the bad review and had to write as well. Dr. Secor is an amazing person and a vet that is extremely knowledgable. I have also had his associates work with me on several horses. I had the unfortunate experience of a horse that miscarried and the vet from Secor's office came and worked with her hand in my horse for hours to get the placenta to deliver. She went above and beyond to save my horse. That horse is alive because these vets care...don't be fooled by trash talk."
