“If you own a horse, you know they can be expensive. It's not only food and boarding and equipment, they occasionally need medical care. If you are a pro-active horse owner, you can sometimes head off major medical expenses with preventive care. We use Bakersfield Large Animal Hospital for all our needs. There are three vets in residence and they are all very good. Dr. John Tolley is the head vet and heads the staff. Dr. Gonzales has the second longest tenure. He is very conscientious and great with the horses. Dr. Ordonez-Jones is the newest addition. He speaks Spanish. He graduated from Davis and came to Bakersfield. Every other year we take our horses in for dental work. Dr. Tolley did the horse's teeth this year. They use mechanical tools to get the teeth just right. (Horse's teeth grow throughout their life and have to be "shaped" on a regular basis). We like using Bakersfield Large Animal Hospital because all the doctors there are willing to talk to us, answer all our questions, and give alternative treatment programs. They also talk to each other. They will discuss cases and try to come up with the best diagnosis and treatments. When you're dealing with veterinary care, I consider this VERY important. The rest of the staff - Rudy, Katherine, and the others - are very good at handling the horses and keep things running smoothly. Bakersfield Large Animal is on Taft Hwy. They have a full service equine vet hospital.“

“Reached out to get my 9 year old Shepard husky mix teeth cleaned. Got an appointment.“

“Our dog Copito is happy in this place, he has been a patient here for almost 4 years and they have always given us excellent service. We have a lot of confidence in the doctor and she gives us very good advice about our dog's behavior.“

“The receptionist, medical assistants and veterinary all friendly, engaged with the animal and explained recommendations for treatment. The waiting room and inspection treatment room was well lite and clean. Thanks for your help!“

“We've taken our pets here for nearly 10 years now for their shots and checkups and have had 2 pets euthanized here. The staff have always been so kind and helpful. Very happy with the services we have received.“

“A friend referred me to Dr. Thurman and team and I cannot thank her enough. I recently took the first of two cats for an annual exam and introduction. I immediately felt "at home" from the moment I walked in. I also appreciated not having to wait an extensive time; I feel like they schedule appropriately to see the animals (and their humans) in a timely manner.
Upon my first call, the office was not accepting new clients. While disappointed, I admired that they did not over schedule themselves. I have since been able to secure a spot thankfully.
I highly recommend giving this team a call if you're looking for a new veterinarian.“

“After our at the time 5 month old Frenchie broke one of his hind legs we were looking for a surgeon that could get us in ASAP. Bakersfield regional veterinary surgical specialty got us in on the next business day. The love, care and attention our baby received was amazing. The staff were very helpful and understanding throughout the process. Dr. B was absolutely amazing! We couldn't have asked for anything more. We paid a pretty penny but it was expected and worth it we just wanted our baby to be taken care of. I would recommend and take him back should he ever need it.“

“Kind and compassionate staff and doctor. We are so happy with this wonderful business“
