How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Santa Ana Veterinary 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.
Compare prescription pricing
Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.
Consider pet insurance
Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

I have been bringing my animals to the Santa Ana veterinary hospital for at least 10 to 15 years now. They have always been excellent. Last week, one of our cats was very, very ill. The staff was loving and caring. Unfortunately, we brought Jinx in way too late. I just kept thinking she was going to be OK but she was not ok. I want to thank all of you at SAVH for how well you treated us and for making the last moments on this earth comfortable for our cat.

WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE!!! I took my 6-month-old puppy here due to her having some stomach issues because of something she had eaten. The Dr and I discussed what needed to be done, which was abdominal exploratory surgery. Unfortunately, my pup did not make it and "died by choking on her vomit under anesthesia." At the time, we were extremely distraught with what had just happened, so we just believed they did the best they could to help her and said our last goodbyes. The very same day the Dr informs us about the cremation process (group(free) private($), we decided private and selected the urn. He said it would take about a week for us to receive her ashes. Fast forward to TWO WEEKS. I got a call from the office to notify me that they had mislabeled my puppy and did her as a group cremation instead of a private cremation . I still can not seem to understand how this mistake could have happened. How negligent can they be it's been a very traumatic situation to deal with to know I'll never have her ashes with me . PLEASE !! THINK TWICE ABOUT TAKING YOUR FUR BABIES HERE!

I had brought my dog to this vet and when I got him back he got a black eye and scratches all over his neck like if he had gotten choked. When I gave him to the nurse he was not like that until I had got him back. I asked what had happened and the nurse acted if she didn’t know. I will consider to sue this place.

Do not take your pets here! They do not have your pet's best interests at heart! I took my sick 1.5 lb puppy and she was diagnosed with parvo. I knew right that second she was much too small to survive. I asked the vet if euthanasia was the best choice to which he gave me a bewildered shocked look and told me he's seen "many" puppies survive parvo and gave my pup a 50/50 chance but was very optimistic based on how "good" she looked. He saw my distress and took advantage of it selling me false hope!!!!! 24 hours later her condition deteriorated and she was showing clear signs of hypovolemic shock at her follow up appointment. Again, I inquired about euthanasia in the best interest of my puppy and AGAIN the vet LIED to me and told me my puppy "doesn't look worse to me" and I believed him continuing her out patient treatments. Less than 24 hours later she died. I should have followed my heart and put her down! She should of had an easy, peaceful goodbye.... NOT THE HORRENDOUS PAINFUL SLOW DEATH SHE DID HAVE THANKS TO THIS VETERINARIAN WHO GUILTED ME INTO PROLONGING HER SUFFERING!! Don't take your pets here!! I regret it!! A competent and caring vet would not take advantage of his patients in such a way!!
