My furry feline always gets the best care at Modern Animal. We have seen both Dr. Rodriguez and Dr. Amrita in prior visits at the West Los Angeles location, and both were knowledgeable, personable, and kind. I felt my kitty was in good hands, and I appreciated the extra time each of them spent explaining things and answering my questions. All the staff at modern animal are excellent - from the receptionist to the vet techs - you can tell everyone cares about animals and their humans. I appreciate that all the costs are discussed with you upfront, and each treatment is explained. You have the ability to prioritize treatments and recommendations to fit your budget while still providing the best care for your best friend. I also appreciate that the staff messages you through the app leading up to your appointments. The communication is always top notch. I look forward to continuing to bring my treasured pet here for many years to come.

I adore Modern Animal — all the techs, vets, and admin people are so kind, positive, and supportive. I switched to them when my 15+ yr old dachshund needed a new vet. They were wonderful with my little “old lady”! And now with my 8wk old dachshund, they welcomed her with treats and toys! The care is top notch and the communication is phenomenal (via the app). I have asked questions at all times and always get a prompt response. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. (Love Dr Bijlani at the Westwood Blvd location)

The doctors and nurses here are very nice and friendly, answering any medical questions. That's why I chose to have my cat neutered here. However, I noticed one of my cat's nipples was nicked from shaving, and it looked painful (and the sutures were sloppy). The staff could be more attentive and improve their technique. Imagine if that happened to your own nipple. It's not fun.

We started at Modern Animal recently for our new kittens, Lizzie & Lemon. Every interaction with the vets, techs, and staff members has been pleasant and positive. We’re very happy and look forward to our next visits! 🐈🐈

My dog Earl is the sweetest dog in the world. He is old now and requires medications and many visits to the doctor. He is also a nervous wreck, especially at the vet. We walked in the door, and it was quiet and peaceful. The vet tech was Shane, who was gentle and kind. We saw Dr. Matthews, and she was great. I needed to find a vet who is closer to me. I love their app; it is easy to use. One thing that bothers me about most vet offices is the long, long wait. Knowing that emergencies happen, but going to the vet and waiting 2-3 hours each time does not work well for us. Modern Animal runs on time, and I appreciate that.
