Ask you to call ahead, my cat was having an asthma attack bad enough to turn his lips blue and and when I called they said "affordable animal hospital please hold," had me on hold for 7 minutes just to hang up on me, then wouldn’t answer the phone when I called back. Went to Blue Pearl instead and the second I walked in the door they took him and saved his life. Shame on you guys for being willing to let animals die. Update: Blue Pearl in Lakewood was phenomenal. Worked with us on pricing and got Zodiac on medication, and referred us to a few primary vets. I am so grateful for the team there and highly recommend them for emergency services. Little more expensive but it was so worth it to fix the problem.. the highly cost now saves you money in the long run. Not to mention the quality of care.

Extremely rude front desk receptionist was very short and wanted to get off the phone immediately without any bit of pleasantries as if it’s too hard for her to do the job when I’m being nice. Saying "Yea ok" then immediately hanging up after I said thank you is rude. Not to mention the pricing she gave me for the services were anything but affordable $700 for the spay and $200 for vaccinations?? That’s twice the amount of other clinics/hospitals. Needless to say go elsewhere!!

I brought my dog in for hair loss and specifically explained that she was not itching, had no fleas, and had already been evaluated by another veterinarian. I shared that I suspected a thyroid issue based on prior discussion with my regular vet. During the visit, Dr. Walia repeatedly pushed for an allergy injection costing over $300 despite my concerns that this did not match my dog’s symptoms. When I declined and asked to discuss alternatives, the conversation became argumentative rather than collaborative. When I chose not to proceed with treatment and attempted to leave, Dr. Walia stated, "I knew you had no money when you came in here," and told me to "go back to the other vet." This was extremely unprofessional and inappropriate. The situation escalated further when he followed me outside toward my car while continuing to argue. I asked multiple times to be left alone. I ultimately left and reported the incident because I felt uncomfortable and unsafe. My concern is not about disagreement over treatment options. It is about professionalism, respect, and patient communication. No pet owner should feel pressured, insulted, or followed outside after declining services. I encourage others to read reviews carefully and decide whether this environment is right for them.

Not sure why there's so many bad reviews. I've only had positive experiences. Granted, its usually not positive circumstances that cause you to take an animal to the vet in the first place... Dr. was knowledgable and compassionate. Our senior dog had a teeth cleaning/extraction and an ear hematoma drained. Procedure went well, pricing was straightforward. Dr. took extra care and monitoring due to our dog's age.

I have been bringing my cats into this veterinary hospital for all their vaccinations and check ups. Dr Walia is like a cat whisperer. My cats are so docile in his gentle care. When my cat had a bad fall and needed leg surgery Dr Walia skillfully performed a total ACL surgery and my cat is now jumping and running and has no pain anymore. I trust my pets in his and his staffs hands at that clinic. I’m thankful for them:) Marlene

I don't normally write comments but I recommend NOT TO GO HERE !! I went here to get my friends dog treated for fleas I had waited for about 5 minutes for someone to come check on him at first and when they finally did they were rushing and barely showing any emotion.. and being pretty passive aggressive and only came collectively in the room for probably 7 minutes. Also my grandma had a bad experience with them awhile ago they are VERY judgemental and very expensive for the lack of care they give. hope they can fix there attitude cus ion do all that especially cus I was being very respectful.. and the dude just seems like a creep ngl ..

Worst veterinary clinic I've ever been to. My dog was wrongly diagnosed with very little investigation into her condition and was given bad advice for further care. The doctor dismissive and uncaring.
