Great with understanding the grief from a recently passed pooch. I was pretty anxious with new doggie. New Vet. Grateful for your kindness and compassion

I can't tell you how grateful I am for the staff at the Santa Clarita animal hospital. After letting out our dog in morning like we normally do. She came back inside with a pretty bad cut on the top of her head.We weren't quite sure what our dog got catch on, but she definitely needed to see a vet. I drove from Riverside because I knew that I could trust Dr. Jessica Bones with our family pup. My dog is a rescue, and since we've had her she jumps and barks at certain people, especially men, and so taking her to the Vet is anxiety for us both. The minute we arrived to the hospital both my dog and I were greeted with a very confidante assistant that took my dog in with no problem. I've never seen my dog behave so well. She even jumped up with her tail wagging when Dr. Bones entered the room and was lead for preparations by a male tech, which surprised me since my dog normally wants nothing to do with males. This made me feel safe and that my dog was in good hands. They quickly took her back and took care of her cut. All of the staff members were very quick, caring and attentive to my dog, even when we came in with an appointment made that day.Her stitches came out beautiful and as you can see in the pictures, she healed up very well. It was worth the drive and even for the price I had to pay for the procedure. Thank you very much Santa Clarita Animal hospital and Dr. Jessica Bones, I would definitely bring my dog back for her Vet needs!💗🐶🐕💗

Dr. Bones is such a caring and committed veterinarian. She truly cares about our dogs and understands how important they are to us. She takes the time to understand what’s going on and to explain how our dog is doing. We trust her to give our dogs the best care, and we’re incredibly grateful for her.
