I've been taking my pets here ever since they were in their previous location at the corner of Johnson and Nall...about 20 years now. I can't say my experiences were necessarily good, but the circumstances that bring you here aren't very good. But my treatment and the treatment of my pets is always great. I had a dog who spent quite a bit of time here off and on and it cost me about as much as it would to buy a new car. So, no, it's not cheap. Not in the slightest. Prepare to pay big bucks if you have to bring your pet... read more

Let me first say that I have six dogs and I have been through many vets over the last twenty years. I used to live in CA., then relocated here. Next, my husband is a surgeon and has a SERIOUS tendency to be wary of most regular vets. (He has felt that many of them have always tried to sell unnecessary products and procedures just to pad the final bill). Because he has a very deliberate and cautious approach to his own practice, he isn't fond of vets who just start ordering up tests without care and thought. I breed and ... read more

My Golden Retrieve recently had TPLO surgery here. They did a fantastic job and she seems to be recovering great! I loved how comfortable they made me feel and literally told me to call anytime 24 hours. Every time I called the receptionist/nurses were so helpful and knew exactly what I was needing. The only thing is that it is a little far from my home and also when my dog got her staples out, they actually forgot to take one out. Luckily I noticed it right when we go home and took her to a local Vet. It was just an extra... read more

I took my puppy there for the first time yesterday. They were very friendly and professional. She seems much better today. The services are great but not inexpensive. If she gets better it's worth every cent (lots of them :) I spent yesterday. I hope I do not have to take her back again any time soon. But they will be my first choice if I do.

My most recent visit was with our current dog, when she suddenly started to have what seemed to be like a human asthma attack. We 'rushed' (via the speed limit) down Johnson Drive to Mission Med Vet and were quickly buzzed in and assisted. All of the staff was very caring, and the vet explained her 'condition' in very simple terms, yet offered to do more tests if we requested. She was fine; reverse sneezing is apparently common for dogs, especially scent hounds like our own. I'd never heard of such a thing! And it only co... read more

The vet we saw was very standoffish; she acted mad that I was there. Waiting for her to chart and checkout took longer than an hour. I will avoid coming back here at all costs.

This is not a good place to take your pet. The vets seem to take advantage of vulnerable families. They will guilt you into paying tens of thousands of dollars for non sense. Making you believe your pet will die instantly if you don't pay these outrageous bills. Do yourself a favor and find a better place!

If you're curious why Mission is charging you three times as much as they used to, it's because they were recently bought by private equity firm JAB Holdings. I used to leave here feeling like I'd been treated fairly, now it's all about how much they can squeeze out of me. There are plenty of independent vets in the area who won't overcharge and guilt you into unnecessary tests/treatments.
