Reviews of San Diego Pet Hospital (Veterinarian)

Sam Gray

These folks are always good to our pets (2 dogs) and are very easy to work with. They are very professional, offering all the very best in care, but when you can't afford to do all the tests, etc. to check everything they understand and give you good advice for lower priced options, weighing all the probabilities and risks against the costs so you can find a good common-sense solution that you can afford.

My cat was hit by a car last year and needed treatment to grow back a large patch of skin. Dr. Clore and the team were so helpful and supportive in the process, I have yet to find a vet hospital that is as compassionate and understanding at this one. They worked with me on prices and gave me all the options. I can't count the times that I felt they went the extra mile. My cat healed successfully from the treatment and I'm so thankful they were there for us.

Lisa and her team are amazing. You won't find a more patient and compassionate caregiver for your furry loved one(s)!

Great place with caring people, whether it's keeping your pets healthy or helping you say goodbye to a sick pet (we've done both). Always honest and up front about any costs for care before services are performed. You can request an appointment or ask a question online and someone will call you back promptly. They're open 7 days a week, so I never have trouble finding an appointment that fits my schedule. If you adopt from SD Humane, they honor the vet visit coupon that comes with your adoption. I highly recommend this veterinary office.

I've been going to Dr Lisa Lebrecque for almost 2 years now for my GSD "Kane" and I've always had an awesome experience. Andrea the manager is very organized and friendly and the all the staff loves to help you and your pet. I highly recommend using this team of pet professionals.

Dr. Romero is wonderful as is his amazing staff! They took such great care of my Fawkes Dog during an emergency. They were thoughtful and kind. Dr. Romero even called at 7:00 pm to make sure our dog was doing ok. They truly care and I could tell from our initial exam where he sat on the floor with our dog to examine him. I will always be a customer here!

When it was time to let our Lucy go I didn't want to take her to her regular vet. I found San Diego Pet Hospital online and went on their website. I called and scheduled an appointment. The lady on the phone was so compassionate and didn't rush me off the phone. The office is so serene and peaceful. The staff kept their voices low and were very respectful. They were all so unbelievably compassionate. I will be bringing my other dogs here for regular visits.

Gave me fantastic price on dental work for Cocoa. The Docs are great and the super staff always put my girls at ease when we went there. Hopefully, we'll be able to find one as great in Oregon after we find our new home. Thanks for everything ladies.

They're nice.

They are very reasonable with prices and they really care about your animal. I won't go anywhere else.

Sarah Sadak

They give you 50% off on a health check on your first visit! They did an awesome job and the staff and vets are professional and friendly.

I'll start off with my first two visits. The first two times having to wait over an hour past my scheduled appointment time to have my pets seen. For my most recent visit, I have never had as horrible service by any staff for any establishment , than of which I have received here. Start off again by having to wait to be seen past my scheduled appointment time, though not as bad as the first two times. Had one staff member slam the door on me as I'm waiting patiently in the room for my pet. Followed by another having an attitude and rudely telling me I need to go wait in the lobby, as if I wasn't supposed to be there and someone had to told me to (which no one did). Didnt use the bathroom because it seemed like a huge ordeal and event to find out if there was one even available, leaving me waiting to find out for about 15 minutes. Doctors themselves are not bad, and there are a few good staff members and techs here, but overall the staff was not good during my visits. I will not be going back there and will be searching for a new vet ASAP. Find yourself a vet clinic that offers service both your pet and you deserve.

Dr. E and the staff went above and beyond providing compassionate care for my rescue pup, who is very shy and fearful of strangers. While we were only there for routine vaccinations and prescriptions, she took her time to gain my pup’s confidence before examining and treating him. The end result is a healthy dog with no traumatic experience that is only helping him on his journey to growing into a confident adult dog. Their compassion and kind approach to the entire well being of my dog was quite impressive. By the end of the visit, my dog was wagging his tail and happily taking treats from Dr and staff, which is a huge new accomplishment for him. Well done!!! Thank you so much!

It’s overpriced and expensive. I took my dog here because I wanted the best care for him but I felt like they hustled me down for money at times saying he needed this and that. I recently took my dog to Tijuana where they cured my dog for $30 instead of paying $800 here. The doctors and staff are nice but the pice was unaffordable for me. So I will only be taking him here it’s it’s ABSOLUTELY necessary.

I took my 1 year old border collie mix here to be neutered a few weeks ago. Their attentive, tender, and well read staff convinced me and my boyfriend to continue going to this vet. The details of the surgery and costs were spelled out very clearly. They were extremely friendly and gentle with our dog. Unfortunately, even as young as he is he has some tendency towards aggression. The staff knew exactly how to deal with it on their end and even recommended a few options for home solutions. Very pleased.

The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I've been coming here for 2 years now and have never had a bad experience. My pup loves it too!

If I could give them a -0 I would. I came here to get the puppy package for my 2 month puppy at the time. When I first brought her in they did a poop sample and some test and they said she was in great health . After 2 weeks of having her she kept biting I took her back and they said she was in good health. My puppy finish the “puppy package” with them at 5 months. A week after her shots were completed I took her to the groomers and they said my puppy had worms!!!!!! I took her back to the vet and they told me they were adult worms and that her mom gave them to her! Then they charged me for her medication, which i should’ve have due to them doing the poop sample when I first brought her they should’ve caught it. Ounce they get your money they are rude! If you love your dog don’t come here.

They were able to get me in for a visit very quickly. The staff was amazing and called when I was there to get my dogs old vet records. My fur baby loved everyone there. The pricing was standard for vets, but they were able to give a military discount which they just recently started to do. I had a great experience!

Worst experience at a pet clinic I've ever had. They made me wait for one hour and a half even though I was there on time for my appointment. They are extremely expensive. They made me pay 150 bucks just for eye drops and made me come back for another appointment check up for my cat again a week later. Which cost me another 75 bucks and they did not even tell me how my cats corneal ulcer was doing (they claimed they needed to sedate him in order to tell us how his eye was, which costs an absurdly 300$). They even made my cat bleed from the mouth by putting a pen in his mouth, and were not even apologetic about it. They were worried about their pen instead. They are very money hungry, and their service is the absolute worst. They tried to make me pay 600 dollars for a few tests which i can not afford to do. Do yourselves a favor and go to another pet clinic in San Diego. This establishment is a joke and they will try their best to rip you off bad.

I came into the this facility this morning for my 2 month old kitten, he had a problem with his right hind leg. The vet (short haired woman with glasses) examined my baby and told me he had a possible dislocated hip. This requires surgery and medications. I don’t know if it was because I was young Latina (minority) but she straight out a few sentences into the conversation told if I could not afford my pets needs (I am a low income student) that she would call the ASPCA to take my pet from me. Then she said I was being hostile but how could I not when a few sentences into the conversation about my pets needs you threaten to take him by force. Long story short she was very insensitive showed no remorse for it and I ended up having to relinquish my kitten who I LOVED VERY VERY VERY MUCH. Though she acted as if I did not care for him at all. On top of that afterwards I was informed the vet would pay for all my kittens expenses. Yet you could have done a good deed & helped someone keep their beloved companion & given him his treatment without taking him from me. This clinic had the most insensitive person I have ever met. She has no respect for me or my situation. I love bean very much and am devastated left in tears that my beloved baby was basically forced to be given up by me because if I didn’t she would have called law enforcement. I was going to get him his treatment as soon as I could. I applied for credit care and got declined. They also had an organization to help me but I had to only pay for an X-Ray to get it but could not afford it. I came looking for help maybe if they just would’ve let him have an X-Ray from the kindness of their hearts I would still have bean. I am never going to forget this or my baby bean. I came looking for help not someone to reprimand me for my financial status that I cannot control. All he needed was an X-ray for the organization to help me and they could not even give me that. I try to do one good thing every day from the kindness of my heart and expect nothing in return. I lost my baby today, I loved him so much and I wish he came home with me. I am not someone with many friends not even one and bean was my companion & dearest thing to my heart.

Found this Vet on google this morning after my regular vet couldn't fit us in with an urgent situation. They got my pup in immediately. Everyone was so sweet and patient. My pup even got a certificate of bravery for doing so well in surgery! I love this place and will be switching over to them for all of my pets needs! They're also VERY reasonably priced.

Katherine Ferguson

I had to say farewell to my sweet kitty today. I am so grateful for the way Dr Wilcox and the staff handled the situation. I left feeling I had made the right decision and the procedure was gentle and peaceful. They were very caring and compassionate. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this facility. EDIT: I received a wonderful sympathy card from the staff. What a nice thing. Thank you!

Literally always late to check me in and be seen with my appointments. Don't think they've ever seen me on time.
