I never write reviews so the fact that I’m coming here to leave an amazing review speaks for itself. I was a mess trying to figure out care/finances for my cat dealing with a fatal urinary blockage. Eyleen provided the most personable care and walked me through applying for different care credits and foundations. She made all the difference through a super stressful day and I can’t even explain how grateful I am for that. In addition, the team here consistently called me after each doctor left their shift offering me so much comfort and peace of mind while my baby wasnt home and he was actually able to come home earlier than expected and he’s looking so much better so far❤️

Wish they had the had a zero star option. I would describe this place as slaughterhouse. They have no empathy for animals or for the owners of the animals. I think they want to put the animals down so that there isn’t any evidence that they never provided the care that your hard earned money paid for. This facility doesn’t care if your animal lives or dies all they care about is making money. I was told my cat had received subcutaneous hydration but I never saw a lump that occurs from that type of hydration. The vet tech told me my cat was so dehydrated that it was instantly absorbed. That must have been a once in a lifetime miracle, because I spoke to two other vets and they had never seen that happen. So I asked the girl in the front for a complete copy of my cat’s file showing exactly what they had done to him. She said everything was on my invoice. I showed her my invoice didn’t indicate hydration. She pretended to be confused while searching the computer when magically what appears but an invoice for hydration that needed to be paid. I got the sense when I was there that nobody left there without paying in full. To sum this all up, I paid over $1,200 in exchange for ? They never cleaned nor drained the abscess, they did make a superficial cut but that was it. Save your animal don’t bring it to this place. Dr. Lee at Mission Gorge Animal Hospital is the best vet I have ever had the pleasure to have had as my vet. I wish he had been open that evening. I have since learned there is a 24/7 vet on H Street in Chula Vista. Ok you you to discuss my pets treatment further then let’s discuss it. I took my Pet to Dr. Lee at Mission Gorge Animal Hospital and how you treated. Simba was terrible. You never drained the abscess. Your incision was superficial you could have killed my cat. Had I not taken him to Dr. Lee he would’ve been dead today. He is doing fine no thanks to you. How do you respond to that? How do you respond to charging me $1200 and not doing anything that you were paid to do that what would I would like a response to. And since you believe that you guys are so above Board and honest, let’s do it right here where everybody can read it.

I want to extend my sincerest gratitude to Dr. Molly Oishi, Dr. Tatyana Lyakhova, Adrianna Skemp, our Sonographer Kara Plumlee, Medical Records, and the entire team at PET EMERGENCY & SPECIALTY CENTER OF EAST COUNTY for the exceptional care given to my senior pup, Sundance Shelton (18 1/2 years, CGC, Therapy READ dog, Agility competitor, Foster Big Brother, and beloved family member). From the moment we arrived, immediate triage was provided to ensure Sundance was receiving enough oxygen, with a rapid assessment and quick ultrasound to rule out grave danger. The emergency vet conducted a thorough exam, answered all my questions, and clearly explained their recommendations so I could make fully informed decisions. After the initial diagnosis, they provided detailed aftercare instructions, next steps, and a comprehensive report, including all lab results, ultrasounds, and X-rays. The team also promptly shared Sundance’s records with his primary and specialty vets, allowing me to quickly arrange follow-up appointments. Thank you all for your professionalism, compassion, and the top-notch medical care you gave to our much-loved Sundance.

Dr. Serdy is honestly one of the best veterinarians I’ve ever met. You can tell right away that he truly cares about animals and the people who love them. He took the time to explain everything in a way that actually makes sense, never rush through appointments, and always make my pet feel calm and comfortable. I completely trust the PESC team's knowledge and judgment. On top of that, they’re kind, patient, and genuinely compassionate, which made my visit feel reassuring instead of stressful. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Everyone at this facility were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The Vet Tech was thorough in her questions for the files, as well as instructions and questions for the doctor to make sure the situation was clearly defined. My dog is anxious at Veterinary appointments, they did all they could to make her less stressed. Dr. Shamir was easy to converse with, clear in her explanations and diagnosis as well as her suggestion for treatment. I appreciated the time given to us, as well as the kind response when we wanted to hold off treatment for now. I recommend this facility and will definitely return when treatment is needed.
