How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Boulevard Animal 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.

I called on Sunday and was given an appointment for my cat for the day, time and date I was in need of. I arrived with my cat and was immediately taken into a room. My cat was beyond calm. But the vet, and the vet techs were absolutely amazing in handling my cat and were so understanding of the situation and the personality of animals in a stressful and new environment. I have to say, the techs are absolutely incredible, friendly and so kind! I knew my fur baby was in absolutely the best hands. Dr. Brett was just absolutely amazing and non judgmental! I was overwhelmed in my emotions and felt so at ease . I highly recommend Boulevard Animal Hospital for the care of my fur babies and yours! The office is very clean and sanitized. Nice size office, as well as exam rooms. Overall, our experience was A+ Thank you Dr. Brett and the wonderful team of lovely young ladies who are taking the extra step in seeing to the phenomenal care of the animals, as well as being great conversationalist in helping ease my mind, and emotion during the stressful time. Update… Return to Dr. Brett and lovely staff of BAH, Max had surgery and came home very well taken care of. For first time ever I was not overwhelmed because I knew murder mitten Max was in phenomenal hands and Max was much more calm on his visit than the first one. I really cannot find the right words to describe how wonderful BAH has been with my boy Max! Thank you so much Dr. Brett and staff for all you have done for Max and seeing as he was in wonderful hands I cannot recommend this vet enough! True animal lovers show compassion and this office does exactly that and more.

Dr. Brett ‘s expertise and compassion were evident throughout our visit. He took the time to thoroughly examine my pet patiently, answered all of my questions and provided clear explanation about the diagnosis and treatment options. It is not often you find a vet who combines such high levels of knowledge with a warm approachable demeanor. Highly recommended

Dear Dr Brett Geffen and the Wonderf staff at Boulevard Animal Hospital. I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the care and love you provided to Kobe and his family throughout his last few months of life. Your kindness, support, and dedication during last hours of illness and especially in Kobe's final moments meant the world to me. Losing Kobe has been incredibly difficult, but knowing that he was in the hands of such compassionate and skilled individuals brings me, my sister and Fredy comfort. Freddie referred me to a place that provided my baby gentle care made such a difference in in my life and family. I am forever grateful for the warmth and support and HUGS you extended to all of us! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you did for Kobe's family and for being there for us during this transition and difficult time. Your kindness will never be forgotten. With heartfelt appreciation, Love always KOBE Dad and his Liceaga family!

They all care for the different pets that visit. Whether they are sick or they need a MANI-PEDI, aka getting their nails trimmed, they know what to do, even if they cut too close (personal experience). Now, Dr. Brett knows his stuff, and I trust him with my cat. He's friendly, listens to everything that is happening with your pet, and he knows his stuff. As we all know, medication is different for everyone. Sometimes, it works, and other times, you just have to keep trying until you find the one that works. (Again, personal experience). We all learn something while we are there, even the 4 legged pets or even ones that only have 3. And all the pets are so cute, too. I've had my cat for almost 3 years. She was a rescue cat. I'm glad I was referred to Dr. Brett by my friend and my daughter! He's the best, and so is his crew!
