My sweet baby Joey experienced some trembling and I took him to BrightCare immediately. Dr. Haghnazary saw my boy and along with what I shared happened at home, he quickly determined what Joey could be suffering from. Through tests, MRI and neurology consult, Joey was recently diagnosed with IVDD and needed spinal surgery. Dr. Gorgi (neurologist/neurosurgeon) was absolutely phenomenal. He took the time to patiently answer every question I had, offering not just clarity but also the validation I needed to move forward with confidence in our decision. His compassion and knowledge made all the difference. The entire staff was top-notch—so kind, attentive, and professional. They called me daily to give me updates and emailed me photos of my Joey every morning and night. And I even got to speak to the on-call vet to get his/her clinical assessments as well. Although Joey had to stay at the hospital for a week, I knew he was in the best hands. That peace of mind meant everything to me during such a difficult time. Thank you again to Dr. Gorgi and the amazing team of vets and staff for taking such good care of my baby boy. I’m beyond grateful for the incredible care he received. I’m looking forward to a happy healthy little boy again very soon.

My sweet doggo injured her front paw on Sunday evening. We rushed her to BrightCare ER vet and they were WONDERFUL! We were seen right away, the staff were absolutely lovely, and the office is clean and very well maintained. The doctor was so friendly and took the time to explain everything to us in detail; then the assistant went over the possible expenses before we signed. I was very impressed with the low cost of care given they are a 24 hour emergency office! We got our sweet girl back quickly, she was treated with love and care by everyone there. We will definitely be back for all our emergency animal needs, and with 4 animals in our family, it's bound to happen sooner or later. Definitely 5 stars and 👍🏻👍🏻

Just under a week ago, my beloved Chihuahua Valentine was struggling to breathe, and I called BrightCare Veterinary Emergency Hospital at 11:02 pm. No answer so I left a message and drove her over to BrightCare. I did not receive a call back. Valentine had been a Neurology patient of BrightCare for about 5 years. When we arrived to BrightCare Emergency Hospital, I rang the doorbell and they let me in. I explained my dog was in need of oxygen. They took her to the back and said she was given oxygen. The Tech working with a beard told me he needed $1,500 right away. I said I had about $300, and said we’ve been coming there for years. Also BrightCare would in the past get a pre-approval from my pet insurance and charge me my portion. This Tech lacked the empathy that is promised on the BrightCare website. I was filling out the necessary paperwork, and the Tech took me into a room where he advised they no longer take my pet insurance. Mind you my dog was still in a medical emergency. The heartless Tech wasted even more time with me in this damn room. He gave me the name of another vet hospital 17 miles away in Irvine, gave me my dog back, and sent us away. I was alarmed and disgusted. I was stressed out and he made it even worse! My first priority was to get my dog the necessary care she was in desperate need of receiving to save her life. I left and when I called the place in Irvine, they said not to come so far, and to go to another animal hospital near where I was. So I arrived at the next animal emergency hospital, and my dog was now loosing her life. They took her, and said her heart rate was very low. They then gave me paper work to fill out. Three minutes later, the Tech came back and said my little one had passed. I was in disbelief and so angry. If BrightCare had helped my Valentine in the first place instead of focusing on the money/cost, she might have lived. They wasted my time while my sweet dog suffered gasping to breathe. I do not recommend anyone that cares for their pet family member to ever trust the precious life of their animal to BrightCare Emergency Animal Hospital in Mission Viejo. I trusted them and when we needed them the most, they cared about money only. Just a side note, I always paid for the services without issue. I called BrightCare two days later to share my disgust of their treatment of us. I was told by the Manager that she would speak to the Manager of the Emergency Hospital, and follow up with me. Next day, I received flowers from Valentine’s Doctor at BrightCare apologizing for not being there when we needed them most. Nice gesture, but what we needed was for them to deliver the care they promise to deliver to the pets. Not sign my pet’s death sentence by sending us away and not administering care. BEWARE of BRIGHTCARE!

If i could give 0 stars i would. We regrettably trusted BrightCare with our 9-year-old Pomeranian, Leo, and he never came home. Leo was brought in for seizure-like episodes. He had severe anxiety, abnormal pre-anesthetic bloodwork, a fever, anemia, elevated inflammatory markers, and a known collapsed trachea — all of which place a patient at higher anesthetic risk. Despite this, they decided to proceed with general anesthesia and many invasive procedures the same day. We thought this was too much for an older dog; however, we trusted the doctor. During anesthesia, records show prolonged, severe low blood pressure for over an hour with no documented corrective action. After the MRI revealed a significant inner ear infection, inflammation of the brain they still proceeded with not 1 BUT 2 spinal fluid collections. We were only told about 1, which they urged us was safe to do. According to the doctor, Leo was doing fine and right after the MRI went into cardiopulmonary arrest and died at 4:53 pm. The MRI was completed at 4:00 pm why was he pronounce dead 53 minutes later? The spinal fluid was cloudy and we received only vile that we had to send out ourselves. The odd thing was we only received one vile. A necropsy performed by an independent laboratory concluded that Leo died from a massive acute intracranial hemorrhage extending through the brainstem and upper spinal cord, consistent with a catastrophic neurological injury occurring after spinal fluid collection. What makes this worse: • Monitoring records stop during the most critical period • No detailed CPR documentation exists • No explanation is provided for why his instability was not corrected • No justification is documented for proceeding despite abnormal findings This was not a sudden, unforeseeable event. There were clear warning signs, and invasive procedures were still performed. I am writing to warn other families TO NOT COME HERE. This place wants your money and that’s it. Leo deserved better and so does your pet.

I called that I was 10mins out and they were waiting for me to walk in with my dog who'd had a seizure, took her right in calmed me down and said what they'd do immediately and the doc would talk to me. They were there for Suzy & I, in an emergency! Thank-you Dr Ali & Team Brightcare❣️
