Ventura Veterinary Hospital

We’re so sad to be moving away after over 10 wonderful years with Ventura Veterinary Hospital. Dr. Marianne and Dr. A.J. have shown our dog exceptional care, compassion, and genuine love through every stage of life. Their prices are always reasonable, but what truly stands out is their warmth, kindness, and cheerful energy at every visit. I’ve recommended them to countless friends and family, and everyone has had the same amazing experience. It’s rare to find vets this dedicated — we’ll miss them deeply and are so grateful for everything they’ve done for our family. With love, Auggie 🐾

We have taken our pets there for a few years, both Vets were great, but the front office staff can be unsympathetic & rude! Our dog came down with something, no emergency appt for the day, no support. I was at the hospital with my husband who had been in a bad accident and asked my son to take care of getting our pet to the vet. I got home late that night, he told me they couldn't see him. My sweet dog died that night at emergency care. Before that, I wanted flea treatments for my dogd and one of the front office person was rude when I asked the price (we had 3 dogs) and is she was sure it would work! It didn't and it was expensive. They do not treat for fleas, no recommendations other than the one that didn't work. Nothing about the flea tablets. I took them to Buena vet, they gave flea tablets, telling us it's the only thing that works these days. Dr. AJ & Dr Marianne, you should treat your patients in an emergency, treat for fleas and talk to the front desk girls who think they own the place. We won't be back!

Since moving to Ventura Los Angeles, I have tried at least 3 vets in the last 2 years in the Ventura area. I will be honest, I was very unhappy with each experience. A friend of mine recommended Ventura Veterinary Hospital and I couldn't have been more happy with the outcome. I am so happy and relieved that I won't have to look outside of the city to find care for my dog Timmy. Just last week I had Timmy's teeth cleaned and was pleased that prior to the procedure I was offered two methods, one anesthetic free, which was significantly less expensive to the the second option performed under anesthesia. I was provided a detailed estimate with a low and high end figure which provided for the cost of every contingency or unforeseen problem. When I picked Timmy up I had a great consultation with the Dr and she went over what she encountered and what she had done. She did extract one tooth but decided to take a conservative approach to save a different tooth rather than pull it. Most Vets would have pulled it and charged me. My bill was well with in the lower estimated cost. I found the staff extremely helpful, concerned and caring. I found both Doctors (and owners) kind, gentle, knowledgeable, cost conscious, and thorough. This was a gold standard experience that I fully recommend and I am so happy to have found them.

Dr Maryanne and Dr Marketa are both really kind and chill. They tell it how it is, no filler no filter which I think is refreshingly human in the world of overcharging vets who surreptitiously profit off every customer at their pets expense. Really straightforward experience every time here in about a dozen visits. You want your dog fixed? Go here. I can also attest to a relatively pleasant euthanizing process here for another dog several years back. In case anyone was wondering about that. They give the dog a little bed and blanket and stuff to cover up the IV while you spend your last time with your pet.

Dr AJ is fantastic. He’s an old school vet who really cares about his patients. He is thorough and does his best to keep the cost affordable while giving the best care. I recommend him to everyone of my friends

Dr. Marianne and Dr. A.J. have taken care of my pets for over ten years. Dr. Marketa is awesome, too...the staff all really, truly care about the animals they help. My dog was diagnosed with cancer a few months ago, and they have been incredibly caring, kind and supportive in giving him the best quality of life possible. I cannot be more grateful for them!!!

I recently had to put my dog down due to congestive heart failure and Ventura Vet Hospital was there every step of the way, from diagnosis all the way to the end. They were so honest and sweet with us and our baby. They let us take our time the day of and I'm glad we trusted them to handle our baby with care.
