How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Plaza Boulevard Pet Hospital

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.

Very friendly and great service for my pets! Willing to answer any questions that I have and give their recommendations for any health issues or concerns. They also check in later on to see how the pets are after a visit. I really do appreciate all that they do for my pets, especially since they can be a bit funky. Will be returning for vet services for all of my pets while I am still in this area. Thank you!

If I can give no stars I would. I came here for years and this place just slowly started going down hill. The front desk ladies rude . Vet tech rude. And the new owners are rude. Since the change owners prices have skyrocketed and all they care about is how much they can up charge you for basic services. I came in recently for a simple shot, flea meds and nail trimming for 2 dogs, one dog- 9 pounds and the other 37 pounds. The office repeatedly called me and texted me which I confirmed on a 3 separate occasion I will be coming into my appointment, I showed up on time as its a waste of your time to show up early. I waited around for over an hour and was charged close to 400 dollars just for 2 shots, 2 flea pills, and 2 nail trimming. The next day I gave my dogs the flea pills to not interpret the shots that they were given the day before when I noticed my bigger dogs flea medicine was incorrect, she was given a doesage that was for 10-24 pounds which would be a waste of my money had I not paid attention to what she was given. Thankful their carelessness didn't effect my small dog and she was given the correct pill, but I spent an hour at the vet so this foolishness shouldn't have happened. This is not the first time I had a problem with overpricing and rudeness coming from the vet. If you love your pets look elsewhere. After my incident I requested my dogs file and closed their accounts and will not be returning. If your carless about my dogs flea medicine what else are you careless about when it comes to my dogs!

I had a great experience with them and got an “emergency” appointment without an issue. Dr. Dahilwal was extremely nice and the staff gave us everything we needed to treat my pup. Definitely a really good service and knowledgeable Team.

I came here recently and they didn’t inform me about their policy that all pets must be vaccinated to be seen here. So I felt like I wasted my money because they refused to give my dehydrated Senior FIV+ cat fluids, an injection of anti nausea or do bloodwork because I didn’t want to give him the rabies shot. The receptionist and Dr. told me “It’s Ca law for cats to be vaccinated” which it is not. The law in Ca is dogs have to be vaccinated for Rabies doesn’t say anything for cats. I explained to them that my Cat is an indoor, FIV+ Senior and it wouldn’t be safe and it’d be unnecessary because he doesn’t go outside. They’ll probably respond saying it’s their policy and it’s safe but no Dr. we’ve seen has ever recommended I vaccinate my FIV+ cat because he has a weak immune system and especially if he was sick it could be fatal for him. This experience was upsetting and if they are so worried about Rabies why not just tell your staff to get vaccinated or ask owners to put muzzles on their pets there are cat muzzles as well. Instead of pushing it on patients who don’t have the immune system to be vaccinated. The vet tech was nice and I appreciate that but this experience was upsetting and you could tell they didn’t care about my cat. This taught me to stick to our regular Vet.
