Beach-Garfield Veterinary Hospital

This place is soooo great. So good to me and my dog, Jaco. Unfortunately, Jaco passed away a couple weeks ago. I just wanted to give a shout out to this vet for being such a blessing for Jaco and my family. About two years ago, Jaco was acting weird and, long story short, when I took him in, they found a mass on his spleen. They said I’d have to have it removed and so I spent a day shopping around to see what his best options were. The vet told me confidently, he could do it though. So he did… He gave him a spleenactamy right there at their clinic! I thought I’d have to go somewhere bigger and more expensive but they handled it in house. Unreal! Every time we went back there, Jaco was comfortable and happy to see the staff. So I know they treated him with love and care. It ultimately gave me an extra 2 years with my dog. Not to be so direct or corny but… I love you guys. Thank you so much. I appreciate you and everything you’ve done for us. It’ll be a little while before I get another dog but when I do, this might as well be the only vet in the world. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Beware of coming into this hospital if you want your pet’s condition to get worse! Our dog passed because of this place! Completely outrageous and untrustworthy. I hope Animal Services of Orange County and California State Board to come down here and inspect this place!

Do not take your beloved pets here. An absolutely abhorrent and vile institution with no respect or care for animals or their customers. I took my beloved dog to this location, hoping for the best for my beloved best friend. I was met with blatant mistreatment and disregard for the comfort and care of my dog. When I respectfully vocalized my concerns, I was met with hostility and denial - they were more outraged that I “dare to question their practice” rather than the care of my dog. Would you want to attend a place that cares more for their “image” and “integrity” than the health of your pet? In addition to foul and obscene vet malpractice, the employee I spoke to at the front desk was outwardly prejudiced and racist towards my family and I. As I was interpreting the conversation to a family member who does not speak English, he rudely interrupted us multiple times, rolled his eyes, and bluntly said, “I do not understand what you’re saying, get out.” This institution cannot treat humans nor animals with any respect, what an absolute farce of an establishment. Truly, the crook of all veterinary hospitals. They charged me over $2,000 for their botched treatment. It is obviously clear they do not care about saving animals and only want your money. I’m not sure which friends or family members of theirs they’re paying to leave these positive reviews, but they are just as fabricated as the care they advertise giving to pets. Save yourself the grief and heartache — do not waste your time or money on this nasty establishment.

I believe Google stands as a platform for freedom of speech and these recent reviews speak of the true and terrible experiences of coming here. These negligent people claiming to be “doctors” clearly are inexperienced and care more about their reputation than about pets. So please Google, do not take down these reviews. Myself and many other unsatisfied clients want everyone to be aware of the truth and not come to this horrible institution. Please preserve your pet’s safety and your own money.

The staff and doctors were very compassionate. The doctor gave a complete explanation and options. I have taken different pets here and always had a good experience
