Sage pet hospital is incredible. Beautiful, clean, inviting, comfortable place with nice compassionate staff and very professional doctors. They took care of my cat twice during Covid when I had to stay in my car. This time I was able to come inside 👍 unfortunately my cat was too sick for help this time. They were very compassionate and helped me through the process of moving him to the energy world 🌟The Dr. Remembered him from last time and said he was very sweet. 💖 Thank you for all your help and support 🙏🏻

I had a really good experience with SAGE Center. My cat fell off the balcony and was bleeding and limping. From the moment I got there I was surrounded with support and calm atmosphere while waiting for my pet to be examined by the doctor. It did take a while (about 4 hours, it was a night time) so it was really nice of them having coffee, tea and some snack bars in the waiting area. Alternatively I could wait in the car at the parking lot. All the staff members were very attentive and ready to help. Finally I bursted out crying when he was returned safe and sound. The pic is of my cat right after getting back home. He is still limping a bit but I am glad to know he was checked by the doctor and it’s nothing serious. And I am glad he has an insurance to cover the costs 😅

SAGE Redwood City saved our dog’s life when we thought we were saying goodbye! They were able to diagnose his strange problem and triaged him to a quick and successful surgery. The doctor, surgeons, and the rest of the care team were all incredibly empathetic and kind throughout. Very generous with their time, answering all of our questions and making sure we understood everything. We will be grateful forever!

A year and a half out from my dogs life or death diagnosis and surgery- we remain incredibly impressed with SAGE. They saved our dogs life and continue to give her best in class care. Dr McCoy is incredibly talented, intuitive and kind. The network of knowledge they have amongst practitioners at SAGE also provides us comfort because we know there are many folks weighing in on her care.

I thought all vets are well trained and ethical people, but I was completely wrong. All they want is to make money from your misery. They know very little since their training is not as indepth as real doctors. And when I brought my dog in, all they wanted to do was to charge over $5000 for random testings that wouldn't make a difference. Stay away from this place unless you want to end up broke and your pet still suffering. There are good vets out there, but this place is greedy. They just want money.
