Northridge Veterinary Hospital

My dog got an ear infection and had to take him to the vet. I needed a new vet because I had recently moved to Salinas and had taken him to another vet in the area which was a bad experience for me and my dog. I decided to go to the Northridge Veterinary Hospital, let me tell you they were so friendly!!!! As soon as I got there they were really nice. The receptionist was very gentle and understanding with my dog when she took him to the back to weight him. See, my dog is very aggressive prone with new people or when in new and strange situtations. She was able to calm him down, with out him having an ""accident"". When they called us in to the room we waited about 5 minutues (no big deal). When the vet came in he was very friendly, and came in ready to work. He was able to dignose my dog with a chronic ear allergy and gave me some medicine, that clear the problem up in a couple of days. He also explained the problem and reasured me that my dog ear was going to be ok, but he wa going to have flair ups every once and awhile. He also told me to call him every moday for a progress report. When I went to pay it was cheaper than my last vet vist, however, still had to pay around $150 but that was becuase I had to get my dog about 3 different medcines. I still use the medicine and to this day almost 9 months later, they help with when is ear flears up. \r \r Northridge is now my dogs vet!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENED!! more

We had all 3 of our Boxers into the clinic to have them checks out and Micro chipped. The vets their are great in being through and up to date. The micro chipping process took only a few minutes but they go through all the information with you and make sure the tags and numbers are correct for each dog, if you have more then one. They check to make sure the chip is in place and are very good with the animals in general. I would recommend them to anyone in the area. \r The Home again Company for the chips are a little slow to get your animal on line but I don't think that should reflect on the clinic. The staff is one of the best I have worked with. I managed an animal clinic years ago and would hire any of them to work under me. \r Thanks again to the staff and clinic ! You guys are GREAT !!\r Pros: Micro-chipping value, Hours, Staff, Doctors, Clinic Very Clean ! Cons: Time to enroll in ""Home Again Plan"". more
