Best Care Pet Clinic

Super super rude so sad about this I just called, the receptionist is the rudest person ever … Looking for a vet or any kind of doctor is super stressful and intimidating If you’ve never done it and don’t know what to expect I just needed a few questions answered instead I was greeted with what sounded like someone eating
And annoyed that I have questions. This lady needs an attitude adjustment and now I’ll never try this place disappointing

I was able to schedule an appointment for the next morning. I got there, filled out paperwork for my cat and waited maybe five minutes tops before we were seen. The exam was no frills, quick and very affordable. Definitely coming back!

thanks to dr geroge who saved my dog! he did a great surgery on my dog.

I have been going to Dr. Tang for about a year now. I made the mistake of taking a ‘convenient’ Dr’s visit to Banfeild Pet Hospital in Glendale because I had a coupon. Worst decision. they gave me the wrong prescription for my dog and charged me an arm and 5 legs. Two days later my dog was still in a lot of pain. I called in to Dr. Tang’s office for an emergency exam and they fit me right in. He examined her and her history, then he physically showed me why they gave her the wrong prescription from her charts. He then gave me the correct antibiotic for her. I was blown away by this.
At Banfeild, they tried to up sell me on EVERYTHING. It made me feel like they didn’t care about my dog at all. So when previous reviewers complain about him not being ‘warm and fuzzy’… who cares! He knows his shit and cares about your pet. That’s what really matters.
Dr. Tang got me in and out quick, and it was half the price. I rarely write reviews but felt I needed to for this one. He is AMAZING!!! I will never stray off again. (Thank you to the staff for fitting me in too)

We heard about this place from relatives, 15+ years ago, when they told us to take our newly adopted dog there. Since then, Dr. Tang has been our go-​to vet for ALL of our pets!
Dr. Tang is not the most warm and fuzzy guy out there but he knows what he’s doing and, deep down, DOES care. I don’t need a vet to sing a song for my dog and talk to me about the weather… I need someone to do his/​her job and treat my dog correctly. He does exactly that.
Personal story time: When one of our dogs had to be put down, Dr. Tang was very sweet and treated my mom and I so kindly. In the last two months of our dog’s life, she was experiencing a lot of health complications (heart attack, seizures, etc). Panicked, we kept bringing her in after she would have some kind of episode and Dr. Tang not only took care of her, but he sent us home a few times by waiving the exam fee. We never event expected the fee to be waived. Additionally, we told him we were ready to pay whatever money it would take, if it was even possible, to fix our dog’s ailing heart. He was very matter-​of-​fact and said he could do it but highly didn’t recommend the surgery as she may not survive the surgery and, if she did, it would extend her life by a mere 6 months and she’d most likely not have quality of life for those few months. When we finally decided we need to put her down, Dr. Tang was so patient and compassionate. He told my mom and I we can take all the time we need in the room… and he meant it. I’ll never forget that. I hope you’re reading this, Dr. Tang, thank you.
In terms of $, Dr. Tang doesn’t BS you with excessive treatments/​tests and his prices are hard to beat. I appreciate that he doesn’t try to upcharge patients; this is something I’ve found is hard to come by.
His office staff aren’t the kindest people out there but, then again, if you need someone to talk to, GO FIND SOME FRIENDS.
I’ve moved to Santa Clarita, I’ve been to other vets, and I still prefer Dr. Tang and will drive down to Glendale to see him.

NEVER GOT TO CHECK OUT DR. TANG BECAUSE THE RECEPTIONIST AT THIS CLINIC ARE SO RUDE.
I called the other day because my 2 months old puppy pooped out a glob of BLOOD. I had explained this to the receptionist that picked up with phone. She stated that there were no opened appointments and they were available the day after. Then i asked her if this is not a serious case I am willing to wait one day to take my puppy in. Instead of answering my questions she tells me to go somewhere else because there was nothing she can do for me and she does not want to answer my questions. I wanted to jump through the phone so I can smack her around couple of times. So I just hung up the phone and called mohawk alley animal hospital. They were booked but thought that my baby should come in ASAP and made «space» for him to get looked at.

They’re great– my puppy has been in twice for shots and while I hope he’ll be healthy enough to not visit for another year, I trust them to take good care of him when we return. I don’t know a lot about comparable rates, but a lot of people in the waiting room had positive things to say and commented that this office is affordable. Small parking lot in the back– usually has at least one spot open.

This was our first time visiting BestCare Pet Clinic. Honestly we came here instead of anywhere else in Glendale because of the reviews on Unilocal.Trust me we weren’t disappointed. Dr Tang made us feel very comfortable and answered all of our questions. My Husband and I have decided to continue coming here for all of our veterinary needs. Dr Tang took very good care of Charlie and handled him with ease because of his small size. He also gave us Diarrhea pills for FREE! We really appreciate the entire staff and can’t wait for our next visit.

I recently adopted this cat a few weeks ago. She kind of hates me so I’ve been waiting until we are on better terms to take her to the vet. Unfortunately, she developed a gross problem back where the Sun doesn’t shine that didn’t work itself out and became worse last night. By this morning, she wouldn’t eat so I knew I had to get her to a vet. My friend recommended Best Care. I called and they were able to schedule me for this morning. I won’t go into the gross details but Dr. Tang was able to fix kitty up in minutes. He was very professional and courteous– as were the rest of the staff. The front office gals were lovely. The price was an incredible bargain. I am so grateful to them and will be returning. They have earned my loyalty. A+++

Dr Tang is the best veterinarian I have ever had. I have been taking my dogs to him for the past 7 years and have always been very pleased. He is honest, direct and knowledgeable. The two or three times when I have had a pet emergency, he/​the office always fits us in. Four years ago I moved from the east side to Santa Monica. I have no problem driving to Glendale to see Dr Tang. He is absolutely worth it, and all the friends I have referred to him have been very happy. In short, Dr Tang is a blessing, and his staff has always been accommodating and kind with me.

Just got back from our 1^st visit here on the recommendation of a friend. I was freaking out because my 13 yr old persian seemed to be being eaten alive by a most viscous flea infestation suddenly… even though we gave him a dose of Frontline 2 wks ago, and we weren’t really seeing the fleas on him even after shaving him. Dr. Tang knew immediately it was not fleas but allergies. A cortisone shot, Dr. Tang cleaned his ears & even did a quick plaque cleaning of his teeth and we were back home within 30 mins of our appointment. They also got me in within 2 hrs of calling and being a new patient. The receptionist was also super friendly and professional. We are new to Glendale & this is our new vet. Thank you Dr. Tang & Best Care Pet Clinic staff.

I have been a client of Dr. Tangs for many many years. He’s a very knowledgeable vet, without all the fluff and cares for all of his patients; human & furry. The office is old school, but with that you don’t get the overpriced fancy veterinary clinic/​offices prices. I get if it’s not a fit for everyone, but he and his staff has always been very good to me.
Short & sweet, thank you Dr. Tang, for your commitment to your practice.

Horrible service. It’s in reliable that in this day and age a business can test their customer so horribly .
I am honestly speechless !
Avoid this place !

ive been a customer here for the last 15 years. dr tang’s no BS approach to vet care is so refreshing. he will give you options and let you know what he thinks is best, instead of most vets padding around what you should do and not giving you a direct approach. if you dont want cut and dry answers, dont bother.
the ladies in the office are great. i see a lot of people saying some things about them but here’s the deal — they deal with people that are insane about their pets, and need to deal with the rough parts of animal care, all our phone calls about every little thing, test results, questions… give these ladies a smile and be nice to them first!

I haven’t been in this office for a while since my last experience with the rude receptionists. My dog got really sick and was throwing up non stop & this time I had flashbacks of the doctor & how caring he was with my other pets and wanted to give the office another try. Only this time everything was different. The receptionists were very polite & gave great service. I want to thank the doctor & the staff for giving me that emergency appointment even though they were completely booked. They said we might have to wait for a while but the whole visit from beginning to end took 45 min. I was very happy and impressed. The doctor took really good care of my dog and sent us home with medication.
I definitely recommend this clinic after all the changes I saw. Great doctor, caring staff. What else do we need in case of illness? It’s very important to be caring in these cases.

They are great. I have already taken my new rescue kitten in twice for being sick. The doctor was great and wanted to let her get better on her own the first time. This time she had diarrhea so he gave her medicine and eye drops. They were able to sneak me in on a busy day this time because I was so worried about her change in behavior along with her symptoms. They are always patient and listen even though I have a million questions as a «new mom». They also don’t try to sell me anything or do stuff that’s not necessary.

I came here after my German Shepherd puppy was attacked by a pitbull at Griffith Dog Park. He had a puncture wound on his left cheek by his mouth and a large scrape on his inner thigh. The receptionists were super nice and got me started right away. After only waiting less than 15 minutes, Dr. Tang took Yoshi into the examination room and assured me that he’ll be ok. The vet assistant shaved off the area of the wound so they could stop the bleeding.
He did a quick examination as well checking weight, teeth, gums, etc.
I got a bottle of antibiotics to give Yoshi twice a day. Total cost was $ 70. Not too bad considering it was a walk in.
Also just to comment on some of the more negative reviews here … I was actually a bit hesitant on coming here because of those reviews but my dog trainer recommended the place. I am glad I listened to him and not the negative reviews. I get what people say about Dr. Tang not being extremely talkative but he got the job done and knew exactly what he was doing. The receptionists were really nice as well and they really liked Yoshi too. They also answered all of the questions I had very professionally. I just moved here from NYC and I will definitely be coming back for Yoshi’s future needs.

Dr. Tang is the shit because he keeps it real and won’t have you drop hundreds of dollars on bullshit. He’s also competent and will ease your fears. Highly recommended.

I have no idea why people complain about Dr Tang. He is a great vet. Not very talkative, but who cares. I’ve been using him for my 3 dogs, a cat, and even sometimes my clients dogs if needed.
People that deal with dogs and cats are weird anyways. I should know, because I’m a groomer.
I do to Dr Tang because he knows what he is doing. Not to chit chat with the receptionist. If I wanted to do that I would go to VCA and pay and arm and a leg for stupid tests that don’t really need to be done. Dr Tang is direct and to the point with out the bullshit.
And he doesn’t empty out your bank account everytime you need to take your pet in for a check up.
So what if his clinic is not up to date? You can go to VCA and pay triple the amount and get a vet with not even half the knowledge that Dr Tang has.
So there is my 2 cents. Love you Dr Tang.

Dr. Tang is the best. I am glad that I have him, as my vet, for my two children: Noodles and Fritz.
No, he’s not gonna coddle you and tell you, jokes.
He’s a pro. He knows his stuff .
I LVE my babies, with everything in my being. I would not go anywhere else, again. This is the place. The staff was great and I love their tatts/​hair/​attitude/​cools.
These are my kids. I trust/​love this place for them. Thank you, Dr. Tang/​awesome staff
