Pet Medical Center & Spa

We have been going to this vet since about 2008. We loved them for years. But these last few years, we haven't had the same confidence we once did. They just look at our dog quickly and give us a quick diagnosis and leave. It is hard to get someone to actually discuss what is going on. I finally had enough when I scheduled bloodwork for my dog, and they failed to tell me that she needed to have her thyroid medication 4-5 hours before the appointment. But the attendant scheduling the visit wasn't even sure and had to double-check. And then he kept interrupting me when I was talking. We didn't mind paying above average prices for vet care when we felt we were getting quality vet care. But it's no longer worth it, they have done too many things for us to be confident that we are getting quality care. Response to Pet Medical Centers Comment: I did email Pet Medical Center and did not receive a reply. I guess they don't care to discuss it further.

I was amazed at how they got me in right away. Very clean and comfortable facility. The employees were knowledgeable and friendly setting me at ease. They listened to me and went over things and gave options and didn't up sale anything my animal didn't need. Most of all my animal wasn't scared to be there while being examined and gentle with animals. Will be my new vet place and they also work with other vet emergency places. Very reasonable.

Petunia started out at Pet Med about 14 years ago. She and I loved it but a move caused a change, but we are so grateful to be back. The personal kind attention, patience, and knowledge and communication are unmatched anywhere in Fresno in my opinion. Thank you and we both send much ❤️

My pups had dental surgery early November. From the time we stepped into the lobby to returning to pick them up was a very pleasant experience. Everyone from the check-in process to picking them up later that day were friendly, professional and courteous. Dr. Govea called me to update what procedure would have to be done on both pups when the dental procedure was started. The staff were very accommodating to my schedule to pick them up. They also called the next day to ask how my pups were doing. Pet Med and Spa are the best in the Valley!

I’ll never take my dogs anywhere else. The staff at Pet Medical Center is so caring and knowledgeable. I waited for my appointment less than 10min, which has never happened at any previous vet office I’ve been to. My tech, Laura, was super informative and showed so much compassion. Dr. G answered all my questions and was transparent and informative about my dogs treatment plan. My dog needed surgery quickly, and they were able to get me in the same week. Prices were very reasonable and my pup is doing great post surgery. Thank you!

I found this vet while searching for anyone in the area who was performing accupuncture for a special needs cat, and this is the place! I have a stray cat we took in after injury about 6 months ago who has some lingering challenges, and can be difficult to handle. Our first consult visit and our first accupuncture session were absolutely amazing. Dr. Christopher Smith and his techs were so patient & caring working with my semi-wild cat, they made us both feel at ease and she was able to start getting treatments that we hope will help with her issues. Additionally, I found out that Dr. Monica Dougherty formerly of Madera Vet Center is at this practice now as well, so this is another reason I would highly recommend them, she was our vet for years in Madera. So if you just need basic care, or specialty/alternative treatments, I very much recommend these folks, they are great!!

The vet techs here are some of the best in Valley. My dog is extremely nervous & they have always taken the utmost care to make sure that she is comfortable—even when it’s not always easy or fast. Thank you so much to Tiffany & Jamie for all the care you take for your patients.
