Excellent, sensitive staff and doctor understands animals and families. Doctor was calm, kind, and honoring to my daughter experiencing the decline of her beloved Dog. I would highly recommend this caring facility and gentle doctor.

My dogs and cats have been patients of Lifetime Animal Care Center for years. We have moved a couple of times over the years and I still drive a distance to keep them with Dr. Hardy and Dr. Pizzo. They always receive the best of care. I completely trust their knowledge and care of my "best friends!" I know they care as much as I do. The front desk staff always greet us with a big friendly smile and call our pets by name. We are always comfortable going to "see the doctor" which is unusual for dogs. They always have t... read more

I've taken both my dogs here since they were puppies. Dr. Wilkinson was the best and the ladies at the front were always so nice. I'm really sad that Dr. Wilkinson is no longer there so minus one star for that. She was the only reason I made the drive from all over San Diego to bring my dogs in. Now I will finally look into finding a vet closer to my home. 

Business response:

Thank you for reviewing us online, Christine! We are happy to hear you have enjoyed your experience with Dr. Wilkinson and our staff and would hate to lose you as a loyal client. We appreciate you making the drive over the years and for trusting us with the care of your beloved pet companions. We hope you are all doing well!

We have seen Drs Hardy, Wilkinson and Pizzo and have been extremely happy with the care our two dogs have got from all of them. We usually see Dr Pizzo and our very anxious dog loves her and lets her do pretty much anything she wants to do. She has a hard time with men so we don't tend to see Dr Hardy much but when we have he has worked hard to put our girl at her ease. I find the all the staff very down to earth and friendly. They are respectful of our budget and what we want for our pets but are not afraid to (kindly... read more

Took my new puppy here for an overall wellness checkuo. The staff was super friendly. Dr Wilkinson had the best personality for both the dog and for the owner. She explained everything in a very easy to understand way and was very relatable. In the end I was surprised with a complimentary visit since my puppy was adopted as a rescue! I did not expect that at all. Even if the office was not just down the street for me I would definitely go back. Great environment! My puppy wasn't even scared. She was greeted with hugs and k... read more

After my visit with Lifetime, I was contacted by a member or the staff who worked through the bill issues and we came to a satisfactory agreement. I definitely appreciated the fact that they took the time to call me and discuss the miscommunication. I still stand by my statement that the prices tend to be higher than other vets in the area, but I also will reiterate that the staff are very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. 

Business response:

Hi Danielle, thank you for your feedback on our hospital. I apologize for the miscommunication regarding Tabitha's recent dental procedure. When I contacted you by phone about the additional costs that day I had mistakenly thought that you had pre-purchased a wellness plan which would have included everything except the X-rays and extractions. That was my mistake. As for the fees, yes veterinary medicine can be costly but rest assured that we work hard to ensure that Tabitha receives the highest quality veterinary medicin... read more
