Redondo Veterinary Medical Center

We have been taking our rescue dog, Anna, to Dr. Anderson since she purchased this clinic from Dr. Moss. From the first appointment to our most recent (which was today) she and her staff have been just wonderful. Dr. Anderson is so kind and friendly to our dog and extremely informative about treatments both conservative and aggressive so we always have options. Her personality is outgoing, compassionate and warm. Her knowledge, experience and bio are very impressive and were the reason we continued to take our dog to her clinic. We strongly recommend Dr. Anderson and her staff and are very happy about everything her clinic offers.

i have had 10+ vets in my life, with different animals, different cities etc and Dr. Anderson is by far the best! i have been with her for over 4 years now. You can tell what kind of a leader she is by the way her staff responds to patients and clients and i never ever worry about my animals when they are in her care. She is so knowledgeable and kind, i really cannot say enough. And she is more than reasonable with her rates.
i actually drive an hour each way to have my animals meet with her over anyone else. definitely 5 stars and definitely should be your first choice in the south bay.

Dr. Andersen and her staff are simply the best. My dogs actually like going to the vet office which says a lot. Whenever I take my dogs in for a check up she always explains the diagnosis and what steps I should take to keep my dogs happy and healthy. The staff is always friendly and the office is clean. Would highly recommend this office to anyone looking for a veterinarian for their dog.

Dr. Anderson & her team are the best!!! Our dog Charlie (pit-​mix) loves to chew on things– as hard as we try to keep bad things away from him. He generally doesn’t have an issue but one day he started throwing up a lot and would not eat. He became weak and ill very quickly and we took him to a place in West Hollywood to get him checked out in the middle of the night. They took X-​rays and said that they didn’t see a blockage. They loaded him up with fluids, gave him an anti-​vomiting shot and sent us home. In the morning he could hardly make it outside to go to the bathroom. That is when we decided we needed to go back to Redondo to see his previous vet, Dr. Anderson. They were able to get us in right away and so we flew down there as fast as we could! She reviewed the x-​rays that were sent over from the night before, as well as examined Charlie and she was quite positive that he did have a blockage. She was able to schedule an emergency surgery for him right away and a few hours later we were holding the half of a tennis ball that was blocking his intestines. The care that they put into his treatment was absolutely fabulous. I was getting text updates from the vet techs while he was in surgery & the three days he was in recovery. Our dog is our son, and knowing that he was in such great care made all the difference! Charlie is now on the road to recovery and he doesn’t even act like he had surgery. Even though we have moved to West Hollywood from Redondo, we will only be taking him here for his veterinary care. I highly recommend this place as they are like a family and love animals with all of their hearts :) Thanks again Dr. Anderson & Team! See you at the next checkup!

I have been taking my pet August to Redondo Veterinary Medical Center since he was a puppy adopted from Noah’s Bark Rescue. Dr Andersen and her staff are always so considerate of my feelings and know how much I care for him. He is my baby after alI! Being in the medical profession myself I know how hard it is to find a doctor to trust medically but who also has excellent beside manner — Dr. A has the ideal combination of these skills! I live in Long Beach and make the drive to Redondo so that he can continue to get the great care that I have found from this clinic.

I just don’t understand how anyone could be unhappy with this Vet. My poor dog has been through the ringer with horrible allergies and has now been diagnosed with atypical Cushing’s disease, a tricky disorder to manage. All I have received from Dr. Anderson and all of her staff is patience, compassion and kindness.
Sometimes I think that people expect Vets to be magicians. If a pediatrician told you to give your baby medication for 6 months, even though it might be pricy, you would follow the Dr.‘s orders because you want your baby to get well. You wouldn’t stop giving your child their meds after 3 months and then bitch and moan at 6 months that your baby had the same disease. (Well, I guess some people might). It’s no different with our animal children.
It just shocks me sometimes that people don’t realize the amount of education that a vet must have in order to be licensed as a vet. It’s not an AA degree.
I liked Dr. Moss, the previous owner of this practice, but when my dog was a puppy, he nipped Dr. Moss, or tried to. Years later, Dr. Moss still listed my well trained dog as a biter. That really irritated me and I was ready to leave the practice because Dr. Moss would not change it. But no need, along came Dr. Anderson.
Have I mentioned how much I love her!
The other day when I was there with my sweet boy, he was pretty excited and anxious. I couldn’t get him to mellow out. (Another evil evil ear infection). Dr. Anderson, crouched down behind him, scratching just the right spots, talking to him in just the right tone, and Charlie calmed way down. She was like a doggie anxiety medication.
Seriously, I have used many vets over the years for my dogs and cats and no one beats Dr Anderson.

Dr. Moss was very helpful giving me a lot of suggestions for my English bulldog, Dooley. My dog has a lot of skin problems, digest problem and ears problem. After Dr. Moss’ s help, he is feeling okay again. Another thing, he is being very nice and understanding I have a young child and is not very convince to take my son with the dog to see him. He was willing to offer two more times prescription refill for my dog’s allergies pills, so I don’t need to make another trip just for the refills. Thank you, I definitely would recommend Dr. Moss for everyone.
Unfortunately Dr. Moss left this faculty a few years ago. After I moved to different location. They changed all the nice staffs and doctor. I gave 5 stars is for Dr. Moss team and is not for the new team. New staffs are not so friendly.

I have never written a bad review for any business but I am appalled at the lack of professionalism since Dr Anderson took over from Dr Moss. Where I found Dr Moss and his staff to be compassionate and fair, I’ve found the new doctor and staff to be patronizing and inconsistent with pricing. When I called a few months ago to get the price to neuter a kitten, I was given an astronomic price. When I balked at it, the number came down by several hundred dollars. Recently, I had another issue where they gave me one price one day and another the next. When I was upset by this, their answer was to change my name in their system to include the word «FIRED» and today I received all the medical records for my cats in the mail.

I initially went to RVMC because Connie at Paws a while in Manhattan Beach really loved Dr. Moss. I did too. Unfortunately, he is no longer there. I would interchange between Bay Animal at MB and RVMC but from now on, I will never return to RVMC due to Dr. Anderson. One of my dogs has a recurring eye infection and I wanted to see if the new vet would be just as warm and caring but she failed to even come close to being as concerned as Dr. Moss. Frankly, all she wanted to do was re-​test my dog for the same test already done by Dr. Moss only months prior. They gave me a new medication which after nearly 10 days is not working. I had inquired if this was the similar prescription the day I visited and the receptionist checked and indicated that they are out of the medication that Dr. Moss provided to me before but would call the following day. No call and I finally had to contact them after 4 days to see if it has arrived. Well, a new story this time, they had to re-​test my dog for eye ulcer. Talk about incompetence and blatant lies. If you want to «pad» the bill, which btw, I already paid nearly 100 for for a worthless examination by Dr. Anderson and a cream. Additionally, I had to ask them to pls. clean my dog’s eye after the examination. Never never will I go back and I will definitely let Connie know of the change.

One last review for RVMC. Unfortunately, we had to put our beloved Otis to sleep yesterday. He had been diagnosed with heart disease roughly six weeks ago, and Dr. Anderson did absolutely everything she could to help him. We came in for a quality of life evaluation once and she was the perfect balance of being honest and realistic but still very supportive. She told us which signs to look out for to make sure that he wasn’t suffering, which put us at ease.
He finally stopped eating, and we knew we couldn’t put it off any longer. Dr. Anderson and her staff offered to have us come in at 2:00, when they close on Saturdays. She wanted us to have a peaceful appointment, without being surrounded by other people. When we arrived, they were great about explaining the process. We were given as much time as we needed, both before and after the medication was administered. Dr. Anderson encouraged us to talk about the great things he might find in «Doggy Heaven,» which helped make our experience more positive.
We’re very grateful for everything Dr. Anderson and her staff did for Otis while he was sick, and even more grateful for the way they handled his death. I would encourage anyone to try Redondo Veterinary Medical Center for personalized, compassionate care for their pets.
Edited to add: Just over a week later, we received a very sweet card from Dr. Anderson. Everyone on staff signed it and wrote us a message. This personal touch is what RVMC so wonderful!

Dr. Anderson is wonderful and the staff is great. Our rescue terrier ‘Honey’ needed a considerable amount of care and we spent a ton of time in the office for weeks and couldn’t get over how consistently kind and caring everyone is.
Honey needed a doctor just like Dr. Anderson and we feel so lucky that she was there to help us through such a tough time.
Honey is now doing great!

Dr. Amber Andersen is awesome. If you are looking for a vet who has a passion for animals and her work, then look no further. Dr. Andersen helped our German Shepherd/​Akita mix with his seizures. The seizures began suddenly at around age 2 (our dog was a rescue so age isn’t exact). Dr. Andersen was able to quickly diagnose the problem and provide effective treatment that allowed our dog to live many more years. Neurological issues in a dog are quite frightening. Dr. Andersen was able to provide the support and treatment our family needed to insure the best quality of life for our dog. Highly recommend her services.

Our little pup, Ollie, is a rescue dog. He came to us with a number of problems, including a broken tail that had no feeling in it. Not only did Dr. Andersen get him tuned up quickly, she got us connected to a great surgical team that was able to operate on his tail. We are happy, and more importantly, Ollie is happy with the result. Dr. Andersen approaches her patients with care, concern and an understanding that our pets are our friends and members of our family. Dr. Amber Andersen lovingly treated our dog as an individual, as if he were her pet. That and her professional competency resulted in great medical care.
So when you visit, please tell ‘em, Ollie sent you!

I brought my cat back to Redondo Vet last week after a pretty long (too long) time.
The staff at the desk/​assistants are always cheery and friendly.
At the appointment I was pleasantly surprised to meet the new vet director, Dr. Amber Andersen. (I had fine experiences here in the past, but was never blown away by service or care.) She seemed extremely knowledgeable. I came in for an appointment to refill a prescription, which she was able to do, but she also made sure to fully understand all of the background information, ask questions, conduct necessary tests, and provide me with other alternatives or options.
I love my pet, but as a student, don’t have endless resources. She was completely non-​judgemental, friendly and understanding! Full of tips, and a self proclaimed cat lover! Left with all my questions answered, feeling happy, and with a healthy pet! :)

Dr. Moss is really great, he is very conservative on his approach to healing which I very much appreciate. One of our newest family members had a growth on his leg, we thought it was just a fatty cyst and an easy surgery. Unfortunately not. There were actually two growths (both benign thankfully) but because of the area we didn’t know if there would be nerve damage as a result of surgery. Dr. Moss explained everything to us and thankfully no complications and no nerve damage. So thrilled at the results and that both masses were benign. Dr. Moss isn’t overly talkative but he’s a great guy!

Great Veterinarian!
Dr. Moss and his staff and very competent and kind to the animals. Dr. Moss has a dry sense of humor — and a quiet manner — but he is patient and follows up.
As a dog trainer working with many types of dogs of various ages, sizes, breeds and temperament, Dr. Moss is a trustworthy vet and I take my own pets to him.
Prices are in line with this area — he’s not the most expensive or least — but fair.

We love Dr Moss and his crew. They take great care of our dogs and always try to get us the best prices. They will see you quick and will answer emails. We couldn’t have asked for a more trustworthy vet!

Took my chihuahua to Dr Moss after Hermosa Animal Clinic kept mis-​diagnosing his allergies. They told me it was an ear infection… That kept coming back every 2 weeks?!
Anyway, Dr Moss was able to help figure out what was going on. He has also been great with my AmStaff. He is very to the point and tells you what you need to do for your dog. He was also very helpful to me when I needed to leave my dog with a sitter while leaving the country for 4 months.
His staff is also great… Thanks girls. I definitely recommend Dr Moss.

Dr. Moss is great. My Eng. Bulldog had a complex surgery for his inverted, infected tail there last year. Everything went great. My dog and I are both very happy! The office staff are all very nice, and the office itself including the waiting area is very clean. Parking is easy as the shopping strip has ample parking spots.
I also adopted my second dog when a woman with her kids brought in a little chihuahua mix puppy they found nearby. This little one is going to be nuetered next month at Redondo Vet.
Just make sure you get pet insurance before going to ANY vet especially for those dogs who are more prone to sickness (like my Eng. Bulldog).

Dr Jarrod Moss DVM saved my dog Zoey’s life when no one else knew what was wrong with her. She was going on day 14 of her «illness» and only eating a quarter of her normal meals, she lost 15 pounds and depleting quickly. We had to force feed her by hand and carry her out to go potty. She was in such despair.
Before meeting Dr Moss, we took Zoey to a vet in Marina Del Rey, that came highly recommended but after taking x-​rays and blood tests, and medications, we still didn’t have a diagnosis and Zoey’s condition had take a turn for the worse.
By the 12^th day, zoey had another «attack» and the vet in MDR was closed so we had to find a new vet… Dr. Moss was recommended by Noah’s Bark Rescue and since we live in Hermosa Beach, we rushed her there. Without an appointment, Dr. Moss and his staff were very accommodating and within 15 minutes, had Zoey checked and set up in an exam room. We watched as Dr. Moss quietly examine Zoey. He listened carefully to our concerns and answered our questions thoroughly.
It turns out Zoey’s condition is called Immune Mediated Polyarthritis and Dr Moss has seen cases before. He recognized her symptons, ordered lab tests, and we spent the rest of the appointment discussing possible treatments. Dr Moss took his time and we did not feel rushed. I felt that he really cared about Zoey and understood the urgency to find her relief from her debilitating condition.
I am very critical and its such a relief to find Dr Moss. He is super intelligent and his newly opened medical center is right here in south Redondo! (next to Tidy Dog in the PETCO shopping center) There is ample parking if you need to rush your pet here. His staff is very courteous and customer service oriented — genuine people. Dr Moss also called several times after our appointment to follow up, personally. In other offices, its usually the vet tech that calls to follow up.
The facility is very clean and calm which I feel is very important for our pet patients. If you are looking for a new vet in this area, I highly recommend Dr Moss. He was formerly a vet at the Hermosa Animal Hospital, before he opened Redondo Veterinary Medical Center. Dr Moss has seen many rare cases of illnesses, trauma, and works with lots of local rescue groups too. Here’s his websites:
It’s been 2 days since we left Dr Moss’ office and Zoey has seen 100% improvement. She is on the road to recovery, gets up on her own, and ate a bowl of kibble on her own for the first time in 2 weeks.
Zoey wags her tail for Dr. Moss.
