ELC Veterinary Clinic

We established care here last year where we needed Hawaii travel document for our cat. They did physical as well as that dna test was required. We had no problem getting into the state with our cat. Also our cat had a dental surgery in this place. I was worried sick, but staff was extra friendly , and they took care of him. Doctor confirmed gingivitis, so during the procedure one tooth was pulled. Cat was still sleepy next day after the procedure I was worried but staff told me it’s normal after the sedation like that. Also from pain medicine, but now almost 2 weeks later everything returned to normal. So Grateful for the amazing work. We’ll come back for routine vaccines end of May. I was happy btw they gave us 100$ discount on the surgery because of the February promotion. For a 1000$ procedure cost it came to be a decent 10% discount. Again staff was so friendly answered all my million questions and supported emotionally when I couldn’t part with my furry baby.

I was out of town with my dog when he suddenly had a change in condition, and I decided to bring him here, so glad I did. I was initially hesitant about going to a new vet and worried about being charged for unnecessary treatments, but this ended up being a great experience from start to finish. I called last minute and was able to get a same day appointment within 30 minutes. The online intake form was quick and easy to complete. I was greeted promptly when entering and waited in the lobby for maybe two minutes before being seen by both the vet tech and the veterinarian. The staff were professional, kind, and efficient. Noey, the vet tech, kept the visit friendly and handled my dog with genuine care. The doctor was down-to-earth, straightforward, and transparent with no pressure for unnecessary labs or workups. My dog was treated promptly and sent home with medication the same day. The appointment was simple, quick, and honest. I will definitely be coming back.

OK if you just need routine care. Very overpriced for anything else. Was with this clinic for almost 5 years. Had to find another clinic with more reasonable price + expertise when my cat got older. The technicians are great and truly care for the animals but actual appointment with vets often feel rushed. Routine vaccine / lab work / appointment fees are around market price compared to other small clinics. HOWEVER - CHECK PRICES the moment your pet needs anything beyond standard routine care. My cat has IBD (common in cats). They charge >5x the price for the common steroid for IBD (vs chewy). She ended up needing an ultrasound. ELC quoted > $1k when other clinics in the area using the same traveling radiologist service quoted at most $780. Even specialty hospitals with onsite radiologists quoted at most $900. There were also other unreasonable charges like $60+ for one B12 shot when you can buy an entire bottle of B12 for $10 and administer it at home yourself. Beyond pricing, the vets there don’t cover each other on off days so I couldn’t get updates or questions answered when her vet wasn’t working (even when it’s urgent). They also don't work with Chewy to authorize prescriptions so you have to mail in the physical prescription yourself.

We’ve been bringing our pets to ELC for decades and now our grown daughters travel back to Sunnyvale for vet care here too. Dr B and Dr Z are brilliant and compassionate. They and their professional staff go out of their way to help our cats and dogs (and us!) feel better at every visit. They are simply the best!

Love this vet office! I have both cats and a dog. They keep appointments available for emergencies which is how I found them.

They always give us quotes and make sure we understand everything before doing any procedures. Dr Zibaee and Dr Bhakri have always taken great care of our Siberian husky through multiple surgeries and 6 months of recovery. To this day, Shasta loves going back for checkups and they all greet her with great enthusiasm. This place will always have 5 stars for the way they helped us through a very difficult time in my pup's life! ... And now they have a fresh paint job! Love to see all Shasta's old friends at ELC!

I will forever be grateful to ELC. They saved my 15 year old dog's life. Gave me a same day appointment when most vets wouldn't take me at all, worked with me on pricing, and were very supportive and comforting. They also took very good care of my younger dog. Sadly, we moved away but if you're in the area I'd recommend them!
