If you want your guinea pig to die, this is the place to go. I knew Loki wasn't doing well several days ago and the vet gave me no real answer to what was wrong with him. He wasn't eating, wasn't pooping right, and I was told to buy antibiotics, vitamin c, and eye ointment (totaled $128.00). I called today and they recommended another place that specializes in smaller animals. I came home from work to see Loki suffering like I'd never seen before (face buried under the pellet feeder, mouth opening in a weird pattern and legs... read more

Dr. Depunzio was very rude and condescending during our appointment. I am with my dog 24/7 (work, errands, etc) and obviously if I'm taking my dog for a check up we are uneducated of the skin symptoms my dog is experiencing. This veterinarian took it personal that we were uneducated about her skin condition and was very snarky when we would ask her a question or to simply educate us.

I call today wth one of their long time patients needing to see a vet ASAP and they are too busy to see my dog who all of a sudden seems very sick. Unbelievable. I've taken my 4 dogs here for years but they can't find time to see one when they are sick. I have thought of changing vets over the years, but they are close to my house and I like to support local. I am very unhappy about this and have already found another vet. They stopped their shot clinic and have no tech appointments for 2 weeks for shots. I've been unhappy w... read more

Business response:

Cheryl, I am truly sorry you are not satisfied with our practice. I can assure you that we make every effort to see all patients when they are in need, however, if it is in the best interest of the pet, we sometimes refer them to other locations so they can be seen sooner. I would be happy to address your concerns further if interested, and kindly ask you give me a call at your earliest convenience and ask to speak with me directly. Sincerely, Kim L., Practice Manager.

(Backstory) I brought my puppy here due to an infection on 2/6/17. My puppy was treated for the infection and given fluids (due to him being slightly dehydrated) and we were told to go home, monitor him and call back if puppy wasn't feeling better. After two weeks of antibiotics and TLC, my puppy was eating and drinking as normal and I had my fun and crazy puppy back. The vet and staff were amazing and I could not have been happier with their services. Starting between mid-February to today (3/19) and I have received calls ... read more

We had been going to Linda Mar Vet for years. Earlier this year we took our cat in and Dr Wilson had us do all kind of tests and charged us a lot of money. Our cat got a lot worse and we had to put her to sleep a few months after that visit. Yet, another huge cost. We will not return to that veterinary hospital.

We have been coming to LMVH for many years. But due to several recent experiences in the past year we have decided to switch to another veterinary hospital. We are very disappointed with the staff and services at LMVH. We simply get large bills, little compassion from certain veterinarians, no written reports on the problems, and other issues during several recent visits for several dogs. They billed us for several x-rays but we were not shown them! Two of our dogs died within 4 months of each others from badly run treatm... read more

I will say I'm extremely disappointed in this clinic. I was so excited that Dr. Depunzio had joined this vet; however that excitement ended when I had to deal with another male doctor who will remain nameless. This Dr. is so short and doesn't seem to really care about the emotional part of being a vet. I too feel like for LMVH is about the money. I had gone in for a specific test, and explained that I am fostering the pet and asked about a discount when I made the appt. I was told to ask when I came in. So when I asked at ch... read more

This place is a joke. One of the pictures included is the invoice of what I was charged to be told my dog has a sore muscle somewhere. The invoice also increased, without my approval, $100 from what I was told was a "worst case scenario" bid. The second picture is of my dogs rear end that was shaved into his second and third layer of skin. The dog is 20lbs and was sedated when they attempted to just shave hair. It has been a week since that visit and my dog is still dragging his but on the carpet to itch the scabs. ... read more

WOW, is the only thing I can say. I am shocked and very offended. I never thought this would happen to us as Yelp is a forum for consumers to describe our experiences, both good and bad, to the public without recourse. It is a tool for us to have so our voices can be heard (anonymously)! Well, just six days after posting my initial post about my experience with LMVH the Hospital Administrator and Owner, Dr. Ramin S has left four messages for us, on our cell phones and home phone, and then spoke to my husband regarding my ... read more

Business response:

Dear Banana R. I apologize if my attempts to reach you have caused you any inconvenience. The only intention for these attempts was to hear you and your concerns, and to see if we could have done anything differently since based on our last conversation 8 months ago, I had the understanding that I was able to address your concerns at the time to your satisfaction. With my deepest apologies, Ramin Saberzadeh, DVM
