Veterinary Neurology Center

Thank you Dr Dillard and everyone from medical assistants to receptionists for getting us in so quick from the moment I called back in February about my Doxie Tito, getting him an MRI and into surgery to repair a huge herniated disc that caused him to stop using his back legs. He went from not being able to walk to 2 weeks post surgery holding his body weight and taking somewhat stable steps to releasing him from care 6 weeks post surgery because he was healing so well. He is back to running around and enjoying life again (but not back to jumping off furniture lol). Dr Dillard is absolutely amazing and so kind and we are forever grateful for her and everyone there for giving our boy good quality of life after his surgery.

My Ginger injured her cervical neck and our vet recommended Veterinary Neurology Center in Tustin. I got appointment few days later. We meet Dr Phillip Schissler for consultation & he diagnosed her with IVDD( mineralized disc). Dr Phillip Schissler did MRI and surgery the same day. We got amazing results, Ginger will be back her Doxie self again. We got to pick up next day. Dr. Schissler and the staff were amazing, I highly recommend them.

I recommend this facility to friends and family. When we came in, Journey, my mini poodle couldn’t walk or move his legs. He ruptured a disc in his spine after jumping off a high bed. Now, he’s back to running and living his biggest, energized life alongside his sister. Here’s why I would recommend this facility: 1. thorough, caring doctors Dr. Clarisa Robles look time to answer my every question 2. amazing, communicative patient coordinators 3. great price, comparable to other neurologists Thank you for giving my pup another chance at a fuller life!

We had to rush our 55-lb German Shepherd mix to a neurologist after he suddenly lost the use of his back legs. Even though we live in Oceanside, our ER vet strongly recommended Veterinary Neurology Center in Tustin — and I’m so glad they did. We showed up first thing in the morning with no appointment and were incredibly fortunate to be seen by Dr. Furman right away. By noon, our pup was in for an MRI, and by 2 p.m., he was in surgery. The speed, coordination, and level of care were remarkable and very likely saved our dog’s life. We left with a diagnosis of IVDD, medications, and clear instructions on how to care for him during recovery. It’s been a wild two weeks, but we’re beyond grateful for Dr. Furman and the entire team at Veterinary Neurology Center. Thank you for taking such amazing care of our boy!

It has been such a pleasant experience! They definitely know what they are doing ! Very caring during difficult times. My French bulldog was there overnight and I know he was in great hands. They kept us well informed throughout his process. All staff is great and helpful they took my dog in an emergency visit. Definitely know the French bulldog breed well. 10/10.

If I could give this place more stars, I would. My dog woke up one morning completely paralyzed. I took her in and asked if they could make room to see her that day, which they absolutely did! We saw Dr. Jensen, and she is absolutely the most caring and helpful neurologist! She was very comforting and made sure to answer all of my questions. Due to her condition, they rushed her into surgery. 4 days later my dog was walking again! I’m truly grateful to this Dr. and staff!

This review is definitely long overdue but I cannot say enough positive things about Veterinary Neurology Center. I have a French Bulldog who unfortunately was diagnosed with IVDD about 2 years ago now, he has had 3 flare ups so far the second being the worst one. I want to start off by saying the women at the front are absolute angels, I came in on a Saturday morning my dog in my arms sobbing because he had lost mobility in his back legs. Dr. Sun made time to see my right away and discuss all my options. I want to also preface by saying I never felt pressured into surgery options or anything out of my comfort zone, this was extremely important to me because I felt like the doctors actually cared about the well being and outcome of my dogs health and not just making money. Dr. Sun was extremely transparent about risks and give me a full rundown of everything I needed to know to make an informed decision. What actually made me want to finally write this review is the fact that every time I have called with either a question or concern I always get an answer same day, the professionalism is top tier. I have worked with Dr. Sun, Amy, Lily, Corey, and Dana (or Daria) sorry if I spelled anyone’s name wrong! They are all amazing and there is no other place I would trust to bring my dog.
