Berkeley Animal Hospital

I moved to NorCal from SoCal and was sad to leave our long time vet. I did not think we'd find another good one. My furbaby had got sick and we needed a vet asap. I found Berkeley Animal Hospital online and decided to take a chance. I was really impressed by the love and care my baby got from Dr Holliday. I'm so happy I made the choice of going there! I have been going now for 3 years, and I am completely confident that my baby will be loved and cared for and most importantly that I am not being overcharged! We love going to Berkeley Animal Hospital! Thank you Dr Holliday for all you do!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I honestly can’t recommend Berkeley Animal Hospital enough. Dr. Tejada and her team have taken such great care of my cat, Shakira. Dr. Tejada is incredibly thorough, patient, and genuinely caring. She takes the time to explain everything clearly and makes sure you feel comfortable with the plan moving forward. The staff is kind, organized, and you can tell they really love animals. Shakira always gets treated with so much gentleness and attention. If you want a vet who truly cares and a team you can trust, this is the place.

I’ve been extremely pleased with the care at Berkeley Animal Hospital. Their team is organized, responsive, and genuinely personable. It’s always easy to get in touch with them, they are open 7-days a week which makes scheduling appointments and timing drop-offs of samples easy, and they take the time to explain everything clearly without ever making you feel rushed. They’re always so patient and gentle with Paco, even when he’s being a little dramatic.

Brought my cat in for a much-needed dental extraction. They were able to fit me in quickly and scheduled the operation right after. The staff was professional, kind, and were extremely communicative on what to expect every step of the way, from the initial checkup to updates during the actual surgery. The scheduling/appointment software they use is convenient and clear. The price was reasonable, and I will certainly be bringing my cat for care here in the future.

One star for lack of clarity on pricing. I didn't get treatment. I decided to try this place out bc a comment said it was affordable. I was asking for pricing over the phone about getting my cats teeth cleaned and maybe extracted. She said they will need to do an exam first and then teeth can be done. She said $100 for exam and said that she couldn't give me any estimate for teeth work, not even a price range. Okay $100 sounds affordable already. Came in, they did the exam, and then said bc my cat is older they would need to do a larger exam costing $600. The teeth would cost $2000-$4000. My cat already got some teeth removed a few years ago so know they weren't planning on removing everything. I also told the person on the phone my cats age, why did she not tell me that because of this the actual exam would cost $600? I left paying $100 for the 20 min simple exam they had already done. The other one star reviews are saying similar things!

The staff at the Berkeley Animal Hospital (veterinary) are friendly, competent and attentive. The Drs are knowledgeable and thorough, but are great about what tests and procedures to run or not, based on what make sense, efficacy and cost. They are very helpful in providing various options for care and provide good details on what to expect when you are trying to decide the best one for you and your loved one. We are grateful for their care of one of our cats who was lethargic and not doing well, they for sure had multiple infections and performed surgery to save her life at a fair cost for care. Thank you Berkeley Animal Hospital! Would highly recommend!

They are open on Saturdays and Sundays and work as an urgent care facility. One of our cats ended up not feeling good over the weekend and was able to see the doctor that Sunday. Dr. Chen and the veterinary assistants and front desk people are kind and helpful. I am sure the other doctors are great too! It is a little pricy, but from what I have seen, it is worth it for the experience provided and plan to bring my other cats here in the future.
