Alhambra Veterinary Hospital

I couldn't agree less with racheleg's review. First of all she refers to her vet as as a ""HE"" this is a listing for CHRISTINE Carrillo, who is clearly not the same vet she saw. Christine Carrillo has been taking wonderful care of our dog these past two years since we found him as a stray. They even gave me a discount when we first brought him in, on meds (he was sick & underweight) because he was a stray. The staff has always treated my pet well and despite getting all his shots there, he is never afraid of any of the staff there. \r \r People who complain about the costs of tests that could potentially save their pet's life if there was something wrong should not have animals if they cannot afford them, or go to shelters with reduced price and or free treatments. Do your homework these places exist. \r \r As for me I will continue to go to Alhambra Veterinary Hospital because they've always treated me and my pet like family. more

Please learn from my mistake and DO NOT GO HERE! The staff is terrible, and the doctor is worse. I took my 2-year-old puppy for a check-up, and of course they wanted to do every test possible for over $500 - for a routine check-up! I am new to the area and I wanted to be sure everything was ok, so I went ahead and let them do everything. The results came back fine, but when I called to talk to the doctor, the woman on the phone refused to let me speak with him. I asked if I could leave my number for him to call me back at a convenient time, and she laughed at me, saying ""the doctor does not do call-backs."" Maybe this is standard practice out here, but I have never experienced a doctor (for humans or non-humans) being unwilling to call a patient back. The nasty receptionist told me that if I wanted to talk to the doctor, I needed to make another appointment. I will NEVER return to this ""doctor"" - I hope my horrible experience can save you the trip! more
