Djordjevich Zoran DVM

Dr. Zoran Djordjevich "Dr. George" is my hero! He saved my beloved German Shepherd, Bailey, more times than I can count. From total hip replacements, various cancer removal surgeries, to the latest tumor that literally crushed my dog's colon and bladder. He is THE GREATEST VET in the world, in my opinion. He even came into the office on his day off, just to speak to me face to face to go over any questions/concerns I had. Dr. George is the only Vet my family and I go to. I literally drive 2 hours just to have my Bailey see him, because there is no one else we trust more! Please, if you or someone you know needs a Vet/Surgeon, do not hesitant, contact Dr. George at Mohnacky Animal Hospital in Carlsbad.

I took two of my dogs here on multiple occasions for a skin issue. Nearly $1000 and several visits later they still had no idea what the problem was. They kept adding up reciulous tests and charges for no reason. Running around the real problem it seemed. Then tried to tell us that the problem was allergies which neither dog had for years and they claimed they both appeared all the sudden at the same time, requesting we spend another $450 for allergy tests that we declined. They pumped the dogs full of pills that did nothing but make them act more sick and rip out their hair. We finally had enough and went to another vet. This vet found the problem on both dogs at the same appointment and fixed it with some small dose medications. And both dogs only cost me about $150 for exam, test, and meds. They have been cured and great for 2 months since. So if you want to be knickel and dimed and ripped out, go to Mohnacky. Ive never seen a vet this bad. They dont care about your pet, they just want money. If another vet can diagnose a problem, verify, and fix it in one visit without even a followup, then why cant this place do it in 6 visits. They still had no idea after 6 visits! Are you kidding me?! Dont trust them with your pet. Please go somewhere else, for your pets sake.

friendly staff! best place to take your pets in SD

There just are no words I can say to express my gratitude to and for Dr George. We discovered him back in 2019 when we decided to get hip replacement for our, at the time, 8 1/2 year old German Shepherd. He did such an excellent job that we got her other hip replaced as well, a couple of years later. Last year we went back to him and he removed two tumors that she had developed in her hind quarter. Last week we saw our Bailey was having a very hard time pooping. We took her to a local vet here in Los Angeles and they told us that she had a mass just outside of her colon and that we needed to find an oncologist. No oncologist here in Los Angeles could see her until the end of January. We called Mohnacky in Carlsbad and they got Bailey in that Tuesday. Dr George went over the X-rays with us and showed us that she had a giant tumor that was crushing her colon and her bladder, and there were blood vessels attached to the tumor. He told us emergency surgery was needed. We left Bailey there in their care and drove all the way back to Los Angeles, terrified that at 12 and a half years old, she wouldn't make it through the surgery. She stayed in the hospital for three nights and we called to check on her several times throughout each day. The staff also took pictures of her and sent those to us and they put us on speakerphone so that Bailey could hear our voices. We picked her up today and even though it was Dr George's day off, he came in to the hospital to talk to us personally about the surgery and Bailey's care going forward. We love this doctor. He has saved Bailey's life yet again, and for the rest of her life, we will continue to take her down to see Dr George for anything serious. He is brilliant, talented, gifted, compassionate, and he is our hero. We are forever grateful to Dr. George and the wonderful staff at Mohnacky Hospital in Carlsbad.
