Cost and Value

Pros:

  • "STRONGLY RECOMMEND ANIMAL GENERAL if you really want the best care for your pet."
  • "Henry always explains the invoices carefully and I never leave with any questions or feeling like I got ripped off."
  • "Could be expensive but its worth it."

  • "They accept pet insurance and most of the procedures are reasonably priced."
  • "I could not pay for test that needed to be done at that time. But, the doctor made sure I had medication needed. He even made sure Jasper had his eye cleaned and showed me how to care for him at home. Last but not least, for medication and visit I payed less the $50.00."

Cons:

  • "We were quoted $450 hundred dollars for just looking at him."
  • "Very expensive vet bill to say the least. Not satisfied with this recent visit."
  • "They also tend to overdiagnose."
  • "I spend a lot of money for a good service but for they say I didn't call and explain why I couldn't go to my pets appointment anyone can have an emergency our car problem but they didn't understand."
  • "After examination, they told me they don’t have a dentist, and promotes other services. That’s totally fraud!!"
  • "This is a very expensive vet.. and the most interest is to charge multiple time they can do than the interest on the pet."

  • "The staff here is AMAZING! Very professional, kind and compassionate."
  • "The staff is warm and welcoming and they always remember my pets name which is important to me because it shows they care, enjoy what they do, and take the time to remember each and every pet that visits their office."

Cons:

  • "Never this place again! They are not even honest. Without honesty, how could you run a business????"
  • "Every time I went in for a visit with my dog and I would ask a question, the doctor would rush his answers and literally be walking out the door as he was answering my question."
  • "Just had a horrible experience with this Hospital/clinic, while being their client."
  • "If when needed your office/doctor on stuff was unavailable even to talk to me face to face for a few minutes and my pet remained without help and doctor Kim was unable to be contacted in any way and you disregarded his instructions regardless he is founder of the clinic, please keep your services and lack of professionalism."
  • "They did NOT explain what this shot was or what it what do to my dog before they gave this to him."
  • "I've tried 3 different vets there and none of them seemed to be really good with my skittish dog, which is fine, but their noticeable tension would make my dog even more nervous and it stressed me out to come here."
  • "The reason why I ended up switching to another vet is because Dr. Kim was not the most helpful doctor."
