The staff at Vanderhoof is the best. I have lived in Pasadena for over 20 years and have tried almost every clinic in the area. I am very picky about front staff, wait time, professionalism and cost. If you want rude treatment and go bankrupt, go to Dr. Black in La Crescenta, but if you want caring, knowledgeable, professional care for your beloved pet, go to Vanderhoof. The medications that my dog needs everyday are 1/2 the cost at Vanderhoof than they are at the clinic of Dr. Black in La Crescenta. When I took my goat to Vanderhoof with a fractured leg, the staff was so accommodating...even letting me lay next to my goat, Rosy, when she hospitalized. I know that sounds crazy but to them, it seemed normal and natural. I love the staff at Vanderhoof, almost as much as they love my pets. PS...I was not an established client when we brought Rose in and we were fit right in.
