Preventive care

I had 2 experiences recently to visit Seacoast. One last Thurs when I had to say good-bye to my 14 yr old sweetheart Chloe. She’d been a patient of Dr Adams for 7+ yrs. Everyone was so caring, loving & supportive🐾💞 I can’t say enough wonderful things about Dr Adams and all of the sweethearts in the office❤️ I took my Springer Gutherie in for his recurrent skin issues from allergies. Gutherie was so happy to see everyone😀 they’re so loving to him!! They treat my pets as if they’re their own. Gutherie never shakes or gets upset going there!! That’s a huge plus👍 I could go on & on about how wonderful they are. I hope you & your pets are lucky enough to develop a caring relationship with all of them🥰

I cannot thank the Seacoast staff enough for saving my sweet Bailey! On Friday night she had gotten into one of my other pup’s medication and we were in a panic. Luckily Dr. Adams, Rebecca, and Ariana were ready to save the day. They were calm and quick to take action. I had called ahead of time to let them know we were on the way and by the time we had arrived they were waiting with all their supplies to induce vomiting. While Dr. Adams was on the phone with poison control, Rebecca and Ariana were standing by Bailey with a bucket and trash can ready to catch whatever came up. I HIGHLY recommend Seacoast to anyone who is in the area. We absolutely love them and the care they provide! They love all their clients as if they were their own and treat them with the upmost care!

My cat recently had a huge decline in his health after a diagnosis of mouth cancer. He couldn’t eat anymore and every time he drank he would cough. Me and my wife decided quickly that the best option for him to be euthanasia since his quality of life dropped significantly. We were searching around our local area and every other place charged around $900-$1200 for euthanasia and cremation and some wouldn’t even give you the ashes back. I reached out to a few places on yelp and seacoast animal health Center gave me a great price with options of Cremation by fire or water. The staff was very kind and thoughtful when I called and had the room ready for me as soon as I arrived for us to put down our sweet little guy. The vet tech Ariana and Dr. Adams were so thoughtful and kind. They made the experience so pleasant and quick for our cat. I can’t thank them enough for allowing us to take the time to sit with our cat and say goodbye. Even though this was a difficult time for me and my wife, Dr. Adams Assured us, we were making the right decision and offered us plenty of resources after the euthanasia. We’re so grateful to the entire staff at Seacoast and I’m glad my cat is at peace. UPDATE: It’s been about six days since my Cat Damon was put down. I got a call today from seacoast telling me his ashes were ready for pick up. When I got to seacoast to pick up his ashes, the staff already knew and brought him out to me. I was really shocked to see that they also included a paw print and a patch of my cats fur , along with his cremated ashes. It was truly incredible the amount of dedication and thought seacoast put Into my cat after his passing it is truly heartwarming. When I got home later to check my mailbox, I saw a letter from seacoast. I opened it up and it was a personal letter from the staff and Dr. Adams telling me how sorry they were for my loss and that my cat was truly lucky to have me. The compassion they had for my cat is truly extraordinary and I am so grateful for there support.

The whole team at Seacoast was super friendly and welcoming when I brought my puppy in for her first checkup. They made the entire process easy, answered all my questions, and made my puppy feel so comfortable that she ended up sleeping through the whole exam. Could not recommend SAHC any more - they are the most professional and caring team I've come across with any of my 4 dogs and I won't be taking my pup anywhere else.

Seacoast Animal Health Center in San Marcos should be your number one choice for your treasured pet's care. Not only does it offer a state-of-the-art aesthetically pleasing, clean and roomy facility, but the attention to detail is apparent in all respects. Dr. Tanya Adams started caring for my Westie when he was roughly 7, and after managing multiple complex health issues, we recently lost him at 15 years, 7 months. A life well-lived due to her expertise, availability, tenacity, follow-up and compassion. And the Vet technicians as well as the entire staff, including management, are exceptional and just as caring and compassionate. All of this combined can make a sometimes stressful and emotional visit go as smoothly as possible, and no matter the circumstances, you will leave knowing everyone did their absolute best! If I could offer any advice, it is most important to work as a team. The Dr. depends on the pet parent to be observant, report anything different or unusual, and follow through with all medications and protocols. What I truly appreciate was her openness to listen, bounce ideas around and in fact be willing to think outside the box, in particular when dealing with multiple complex conditions going on all at the same time. May you enjoy many happy and healthy years with your precious pet under the care of Dr. Adams!
