Preventive care

Dr. Emily Talcott is a wonderful veterinarian with compassion and integrity. She was skillful and experienced. She was very gentle with my dog Khaleesi and checked her thoroughly and carefully. She cared for the well being of my dog just like her own. Always grateful owner...

Don't take your pets here, even if it's an emergency. They won't take care of your pets and will scam you out of $1,000 to do absolutely nothing for your pet. Our cat was here for over three hours in terrible pain, and they didn't administer an IV, didn't provide meds, and didn't even have an answer of what could be the cause of his suffering. The vet called immediately trying to jump to surgery without an explanation, saying it could be anything from gas to cancer. The x-rays were sent to a radiologist so they could charge more, and they didn't even provide any actual information! The report stated that there could be a blockage, and in that same report, it stated there wasn't a blockage. After the doctor called and handled the update poorly, we rushed to take our cat to our primary vet since they kindly fit us in. We requested our cat to be discharged and it took over an hour for them to process the discharge, while they kept saying it was going to take 15 minutes. In the middle of the discharge, the doctor came out and gave us an update...on the wrong cat. They only had two cats checked in that day and he couldn't keep track! They were angry that we wanted to discharge our cat, but in the three-four hours that he was there, they didn't do a single thing. Then the doctor tried to refer us to expensive specialists that "he recommended", and said it would be a waste of time for us to go to our primary vet. They probably get money for referring their poor customers to more expensive clinics. After all of that, the vet tried to charge us for 7-8 different items when the receptionist stated that she only had 5 listed. Awful, awful experience here. Our primary vet took care of our cat and did more for us in 30 minutes at half the charge. I sincerely think that this place is a scam and they will not take care of you or your pets. Taking our cat to our primary vet that day saved him, and they were kinder, more attentive, and more thorough. Our cat was only stressed out by the apathetic staff at Yolinda. Save yourself money and grief, avoid this place at all costs! EDIT on 4-24-23: Business responded to me, however we called and spoke to the manager twice at the clinic and they refused to do anything for the bill and didn’t see anything wrong with what happened. They just gave us more excuses and misinformation. Also looks like the business is using their employees to leave fake positive reviews, since I recognize one of them as the receptionist. Sad, scummy, awful place. Avoid!!!!

I have absolutely had the most amazing experience with this Clinic and their staff and Dr John I have a little rescue. I'm on and fixed income I don't have the means to do all the work that needs to be done for this little animal and Dr John and the staff have just been so kind working with me and giving my dog the best care that we can afford going above and beyond! I highly recommend

After having our cat here yesterday, I can safely say that this place is not worth your money or your time. If you have an animal that needs care, you should go somewhere different because this place did nothing to help our cat. They kept him for over 3 hours and couldn't find what was wrong and then charged over $1000 for their less than satisfactory job. And they attempted to charge us for more on top of that. Save yourself the trouble and go to the Yorba Linda Pet Care Center. They took care of our cat and found out what was wrong immediately and charged less.
