Santa Rosa Veterinary Hospital

"I have been going to this vet for a few years now for the care of my senior dachshund. Dr. Ashley Foster was kind and knowledgeable, answering all of my questions. Both her and the woman who did my dachshunds intake (unfortunately didn't get her name) made sure that my girl was comfortable. Treated her like a living creature with feelings and preferences, unlike some vets have in the past."

"They’re always excited to see my dog when I bring her in. She’s a tiny dog so they make sure to treat her gently, especially after shots and bloodwork. Plus, my dog loves interacting with the office cat!"

"I had to change my Vet. My dog is traumatized of this place. Not to mention it’s very pricey. Here’s the rundown: I just came in for routine vaccinations and got updated to a new price of 1300$$$!!! A bit much? I thought so. My dog has had it with this place. He had his teeth removed a while back and rather than remove teeth in separate visits , they went gung ho and removed all but six! No regard for how much pain he would experience in a few days! He only got Caprofen… not enough. Now going in today just for vaccinations and a routine wellness check and a cytology, I was told he wouldn’t get his shots today. I have to sedate him. I told the nurse I already have sedation meds for my dog, yet still wanted me to pay for MORE DRUGS TO DOPE UP MY DOG. Again, up spelling, I guess gaba, trazodone, and another sedative are not enough, so they charged for melatonin. Why does my dog need 4 meds to drug him up to the point of respiratory distress? Couldn’t two techs hold the 13 pound mini poodle? To add insult to injury, I have to use “a ladle” to collect my own dogs piss?! He doesn’t have a UTI! Then they still charge me for doing their work without decreasing the lab price. Of course, how kind of them to show me the paper ahead of time of what the price is, so I can make an informed decision. Inform me of what? That I have a choice to be milked for every dollar, every time! It still doesn’t change the price! Last time over $2500, this time over $1100, time to move on. Tired of fake smiles and overpricing, of course this place has shiny happy people. Fu€£, the individual paying and guilt tripping. Something is wrong with this practice, especially when routine vaccinations come with added charges. Greed and avarice run this place, so many techs leave. Are people that stupid to believe we should be paying to do their job? And come back later with a drugged animal? Time to shop around and find THE RIGHT ONE!! My dog is worth more than anything, if he’s that scared and scarred from this place no amount of drug can make him forget the pain he feels with this place. Run, RUN, and keep RUNNING!"

"I'm so happy that I was able to get some help for my guinea pig, as she was having some problems breathing and there are so few cavy-friendly vets around here. I booked my appointment for the beginning of the week, as soon as they could take her. Our care team worked to get my pet the help she needed immediately! I'm so grateful to everyone at SRVH for their help, kindness, and patience in such a stressful time!"
