I agree with the last review. Dr Hatayama is the best Vet we've ever had. AND he's the cheapest. You can ask any vet at pet emergencys in fresno/clovis and they will agree and have a very high respect. He went to UC Davis which is the best vet school out there. He is truly down to earth and tells stories and gives advice as he works on your pet. He truly is gifted and it takes a lot of heart and skill to do what he does. He always has different office vet techs in there..some are nice and down to earth and others are crappy and don't last long..once they leave his place they usually just go to a different vet office in town..or open their own practice...they're everywhere. People will be people and in this economy i've been seeing more and more rudeness everywhere I go. You can't mop chemicals around sick animals. I've seen them spot cleaning between sick pets and I watch them disinfect the rooms between each pet and They dry the rooms out before bringing your pet in. I don't know why i'm defending that. I just don't appreciate people making false reports out of rage and jealousy. If you get told to never come back because you can't afford your bill you just don't go back...I don't know why anyone would attempt to take their pet to the vet if they couldn't afford the office visit and then have the nerve to think just because they finally paid it they could return... He has a 3 strike policy..so it sounds to me you've just taken advantage. He already works near free as it is and to get on your computer and slander someones name is just horrible...
The back room with cages are full of sick pets near death with sores and parvo and healing with stiches... My dog I know smelled rotten. She had toxic shock syndrome and Dr. Hatayama was able to remove her uterus, save her life and cleanse her out... Even at home she smelled for months and had a 2% chance of living and she's still here! Alive! thanks to Dr Hatayma. He kept her for 6 days did xrays, bloodwork, gave her all her shots up to date, did the surgery, sent home antibiotics and vitamins.. all for $180 bucks. It's not a candy store. This is a office for pet visits but also pet emergencies and if you ever happen to go to this amazing little spot in Selma you'll see he's not only the cheapest and best vet he's also the busiest because he truly is the BEST
