Just left our first vet appointment here. Wow! Marcella and the doctor were beyond amazing. The front desk was so nice. They are so honest about what your baby needs, what the options are and they print out an invoice before you pay so you can discuss. Beyond helpful. So glad we found our new doctor for our Nala. Also, not sure if there are more nurses but definitely ask for Marcella. She was the sweetest and so gentle while giving out 3 shots.
This hospital has saved the life of two of my cats. First, I had a senior tortie who had lost over 7lbs (half her weight) due to stomatitis in her mouth. All other hospitals gave me prices for tooth removal at $7-10k and that just is not possible for most average people. Dr Lepera did it for $1200 and did all follow-up appointments for free. Today, I took in my youngest cat. She was the only one of my six not yet fixed, and despite her super young age (less than a year, indoor only), she developed pyometra, which is a uterine infection usually found in older unfixed cats, not usually ones as young as my kitten. Pyometra is fatal if not treated in time. They got me in at 930am (I called at 8:20am) and they took my kitten in for surgery by 1pm. The surgery went well, and they told me it was good I brought her in because my kitten would have died within days! They have saved two of my cats from critical, life-threatening conditions for around $3k COMBINED. Thats half the price I was quoted for ONE and it included multiple different tests, diagnostics, and medications. The staff is friendly and compassionate and knowledgable. They are transparent about what they will be charging you, and they don't push things beyond ensuring they are clear about why they are making the recommendations they are making. This place will do their best to protect your pet. They aren't God, they can't save every animal that comes in, but if they can't, it won't be from negligence, lack of competency, or lack of compassion. No matter what your pet needs, you can rest assured that if its possible to treat, they will treat at the best price available locally. You won't find another vet with more compassion or accessibility. Highly recommend!
My brother recommended Mesa West and we love Dr.Lapera and her staff. I witness how well they treated my brothers dog. They are always caring, honest and conscientious with our dog Charlie. We travel from Riverside to see her because we couldn't find a doctor and staff that were as caring and thorough in our area.
