Pacific Veterinary Hospital

I was weary to come here first after some really bad reviews I feel like either the reviews are good or really bad l, but I’ve had no problem with them at all I got my cat neutered here he’s still alive and well, I also brought him here for tape worm and they gave him a shop and he’s as healthy as he can be, my other cat had a growth in his chin and I was very anxious about what it could have been and the doctor took him away to stick a needle and see what it was turned out it was just pus, she said something could have bit him or something and she injected him with antibiotics. They don’t try to take your money like some vets do. Their prices are fair

We had a great experience taking our 11 month old puppy in to be neutered and have dew claws removed. The staff was very pleasant and helpful and we feel that the veterinary care was excellent and their prices are quite reasonable.
We will continue to use them for our routine pet care.

The best vet in Stockton, hands (or paws) down! I brought my great dane/​lab and my new-​ish pitt/​beagle mix into PVH for shots. I also had my 1 year old baby (whoops — probably should have thought that one through!) When entering the vet, chaos broke out as my beagle started barking up a storm while I tried to tie the great dane to a pole outside (all while carrying the kiddo). The girls quickly escorted the beagle to the back and started working on him, as calmly as can be. They gave me several treatment options for the dogs, and the price was much less expensive than I anticipated. Once the dogs were done (in less than 1 hour), 2 girls assisted me back to the car. I will never go to a different vet. Thank you for a great experience and for taking such good care of my pups!

Absolutely LOVE this place. It’s not our first vet clinic, but it’s our last for sure. The whole entire staff is helpful. Great managing and great Doctors as well. Each of my pets comes out so happy. Surprised me at first. But we, as in, the dogs, cat, finance and I; are very much please with the service and people at this office.
*love this place*

Just yesterday, me and 13 year old son took our sweet purr baby to Pacific Veterinary Hospital. We didn’t have an appointment, but we knew our cat was in poor shape. After sitting in the waiting room for about 30 minutes we were seen by a tech and then the doctor. We ran blood tests and did an X-​ray on our Oreo. The X-​ray revealed a mass near his spleen, and though, surgery was an option, it did not guarantee the quality of life we wished for Oreo. The vet gave me options, but was also discrete about the odds, which I respected even though the news broke my heart. I broke down in tears, knowing my son would have a really hard time with putting down Oreo, and the vet broke down in tears too. The front office provided us with food for the day/​night and provided us with a few days to think about our decision — surgery or not.
Full on knowing, our Oreo is at the end we wish that he no longer be in pain… we wish to not prolong the suffering. I will be scheduling an appointment tomorrow to have our sweet baby Oreo put down.
The front office is very respectful and caring as is the doctor (Dr. Bussell, I think). They were honest about Oreo’s condition and respectful of our sadness and our decision. The service was affordable and we were seen in a timely manner. We are truly heartbroken over Oreo’s health but we know he is in pain and suffering. We want what is best for him and we will truly miss him. May there be tons of fluffy SF Giants blankets for you to cuddle with, a good scratching post, and an overflowing bowl of Seafood Sensations Friskies so that you may never go hungry. We love O!

This office has always done it’s best with my pets. My dog, Rocky, is constantly in there for one thing or another. Lately, it’s been a recurring skin infection. They research different options so I have choices. Rocky has a stubborn body that sometimes just takes its time to heal. He’s 13, and it’s getting more difficult to find easy/​quick cures for his ailments. They try to make him feel better without having to run every test and try every medicine (which we all know costs $$$). The staff, from the office personnel to the vets, are courteous and conscientious. My cat, Dallas, comes here too, but she is very healthy so visits are few and far between. I really like this clinic.

We went after researching on Unilocal and were very happy all around. The techs were great and the vet was perfect! We will be going back, in fact already made appointments for our other two cats — just the experience that i would have wanted, and I got it…

I picked this Pacific Veterinary Hospital because of the Unilocal reviews when my dog Lucy developed swelling around her eye. I noticed the day before but decided to see how it was in the morning. I called them around 9am and they scheduled me a 10am appt. I didn’t have to wait much before they took me into to the exam room, the staff was super professional. Dr. Cooper came in, accessed the dog, and figured there to be a foreign object between the eye and lower eyelid. The Dr. told me what she wanted to do, plain and simple. The Dr. picked the dog up and took her in the back, the other vets had their staff take our animals back. Lucy can be temperamental with new people, but she wasn’t growling or worse at the Dr or staff. Dogs can sense good people, they got Lucy’s sniff of approval and that’s good enough for me. Before I left, I was shown how to apply to ointment to the dog’s eye. It’s service like that is why we be back.

I have been very pleased with the care and attention I have received at Pacific Veterinary Hospital. The office staff led by Misty are vey kind, friendly and attentive. I observe them treating everyone with equal respect and attention. I also appreciate that there are always enough personnel on duty to assure that you will not have to wait long to be served. Dr. Cooper and Dr. Chappel are thorough and provide clear explanations of their assessment after examining your pet. Pacific Veterinary has more than thirty-​five years of experience and it shows. They even offer low cost neutering and spaying of feral cats in an effort to support community and individual efforts to reduce the feral population. In my many years of pet ownership I have never been more satisfied with a veterinary service than I have been with Pacific Veterinary Hospital. I enthusiastically recommend them to all pet owners.

We have had quite a history with Pacific Vets. Little did we know when we took our 2 kitties in for their first shots. We chose them because they are super convenient, Fridays and Saturday’s you don’t need an appt. It is always a pain to get cats into boxes so that is a big plus.
Needed them again 7 months later when our first kitty suddenly died. She was already dead when we took her there but they were very compassionate and caring, extremely helpful. We got another kitten and she needed shots. 8 months later we came in with our little kitten who was dying, same as the first. We drove her there while she was convulsing and by the time we got her in she was dead. They were so sensitive and caring. They allowed us all the time we needed to say goodbye to our little angel, they took her body and sent her for a necropsy (animal autopsy). They gave us the results as we cried and cried.
Then last year, we needed them so much! Found a stray cat out back. Had her spayed and given her shots. Took another stray we found with her 8 week old kittens. Kittens had all sorts of problems including eye infections and mites. We were there right and left. Had to lose another cat when the stray we found had a terrible illness that was not treatable.
They are super friendly, always helpful and so sweet. The last time we came (this was after weekly visits with the kittens to get them healthy) they insisted on not charging us anything. How sweet is that? Highly recommended.

We’ve been taking one of our dogs to Pacific Vet since we got her about a year ago. They’ve taken great care of our dog and treat her as their own. They want nothing but the best treatments for them and always have a smile on their face. We recently got another dog and they also go out of their way to make sure he is healthy. We have a husky mix and a frenchton. Pacific Vet is very knowledgeable about both of our dogs and we feel very comfortable with the recommendations they’ve provided.

Utterly disappointed. My pup seemed to be in distress, therefore so was I. I call the office to come in and rather than extend me the courtesy of explaining my dog’s symptoms I’m advised that they are busy and I may be better served at an alternative vet hospital. I’m only providing a 2 star review because my dog loves the staff & the clinic prices are cheap. I contacted a competing hospital & was given better assistance and concern and we have never been there. We will be finding a new vet.

I switched vets to this clinic about a year and a half ago. I have 2 dogs with chronic skin allergies so we see the vet more than I’d like. The staff here is always friendly and helpful and their rates are better than our previous vet and they always have my dogs’ meds in stock, unlike my previous vet. However, we seem to see a different vet every time we go in, so I have to re-​explain my dogs’ history every time. The front of office staff remembers my dogs and can tell when their skin has improved or gotten worse since the last visit, but not the vets.

We have been coming here for as long as I can remember, and they have cared for all of our animals at one time or another. Both the office and veterinary staff are incredibly compassionate and take the time to really get to know you and your pet. Dr. Chappell is fantastic and is extremely thorough, even on a routine exam. I would not take our pets anywhere else, and always recommend this office when someone asks. Veterinary care can be expensive and daunting when your pet cannot speak for themselves. These people always take the care the provide to heart and give their full effort to everything they do… Dont go anywhere else :-)

I’ve been to many pet clinics, and i have to say this place has been the best. They’re clean, comforting, welcoming… I can go on and on. They took great care of my little cat B. G. And made me feel so comfortable leaving her with them and in good hands. Great staff! Great Doctor! They truly care about your pets!!! Amazing

Polite.

My boy kitty recently had to go the vet & I was exceptionally pleased with the whole experience here. He gets pretty freaked out when he has to go to the vet, & the entire staff (especially Dr. Bussell) was so calm & loving towards him.
After he had some tests run on him, the staff even took him out to brush him. When I picked him up, he was much calmer & obviously content. The fact that they took the time to take care of my baby when he was so sick means a lot to me. The doctor called me the next day to let me know that his test results showed that he had a pretty bad urinary tract infection, but that the antibiotics he was already on would help & that he needed to come in one more time for x-​rays to ensure that he didn’t have any bladder stones causing the infection.
After his second visit in 3 days, my little boy was so calm (even while in his much-​hated kitty carrier) while I was paying because he on the counter & able to see & talk to his new friends (the girls who worked here were quite taken with him because he’s a total love bug).
Both my furry babies were spayed & neutered here a few years back & even then the staff was great; it’s obvious that they genuinely love animals.

Love this place, so nice and gentle with my dogs, everyone treats you like family! My recently found dog was spayed here and did remarkable! Will always use them!

IMO one of the best vet hospitals in Stockton.

I use to bring my German Shepherds here back in the day when they were still named Spay & Neuter. Fast forward to today and I now bring my Siberian Husky here.
The people are really nice and welcoming. Their prices are very cheap and they have pretty good knowledge on animals.
