Preventive care
Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.
Compare prescription pricing

Consider pet insurance

Our two Frenchies are both turning 5 this week a few days apart from each other. We have been to multiple vets in the area before coming to Old Town over a year ago. They are by far the best. Not even close. All of the vets there are fantastic, but their newest vet is Dr. Brown and she is amazing. She recently removed a cancerous Mast cell tumor from our dog Cash's head right by his eye. We had just been doing comfort care because we did not want to put him through a risky surgery, but medical complications from long-term Prednisone use changed our mind. Dr. Brown spent a lot of time checking with pharmaceutical companies, his oncologist and dermatologist to make sure she was giving Cash the best care and safest care possible, both before and after she successfully performed surgery to remove the tumor. No vet has EVER given our dogs the amount of time and quality of care that she has. Even tonight she returned our call with medical questions related to our other dog, and she must have spent 15-20 minutes with us on the phone at the end of her day. We highly recommend Old Town Veterinary Hospital. All of the doctors and staff have been great and extremely caring. Very reasonable pricing too, especially when compared to other vets.

Dr. Black and her staff are amazing! I love everything about this place. It was very clean, has a friendly office staff, no price gauging and reasonable rates. I was able to get right in for my scheduled appointment. Dr. Black was very caring, patient and understanding with my concerns for my 15 year old Jack Russell. She was very thorough with explaining the results of her bloodwork, and also was able to answer all my questions without being rushed. I want to highly recommend this office to anyone that wants five star treatment for their beloved pet. Thanks again to Dr. Black and her staff to making my experience pleasant.😊

They're not just expensive they're outrageously expensive...So being new to Southern California veterinarians, I have been checking prices your average Southern California veterinarian,( I'm not exaggerating) is at least 10 times more expensive than our neighboring States.... These guys are about 20 times more expensive, everybody else wanted 1200 to $2000 for cleaning and tooth extraction these guys wanted 2 to $4000. When I asked a veterinarian from Texas why the prices were so low Compared to Southern California he said "and I quote""these are all very hard working people ,salt of the Earth, if I charged that much I would not be able to sleep at night" BTW that doctor's visit was $28 And the cleaning and the removal of 4 teeth was a $168. IN RESPONSE TO OWNERS RESPONSE: Like I said in my review, I was checking prices, never did I say I made an appointment or was a client. I called to check prices before I made an appointment. I was told by the receptionist that it would be between $2k-4k. Why would you rip off such hard working people? Shame on you.

I love this Veterinary hospital. Their doctors are absolutely fantastic and all of their staff are kind and caring. I recommend them to everybody in the area who asks for a recommendation to a vet. I actually drive past a few other veterinary hospitals to get to Old Town Veterinary Hospital, because I think they are worth it. They are so very caring and my little dog loves going there.
