I am extremely grateful for all that Dr. Sam and his staff did for my beloved Bailey.Being new to the area, I had taken Bailey to three other places before being referred to Dr. Sam. One in Goleta and two others in Thousand Oaks, one being Bailey’s long-term vet, before I had moved to Lompoc.

I am extremely grateful for all that Dr. Sam and his staff did for my dog, beloved Bailey. Being new to the area, I had taken Bailey to three other places before being referred to Dr. Sam. One in Goleta and two others in Thousand Oaks, one being Bailey's long-term vet, before I had moved to Lompoc. Apologies for this log review, however, my hope is that it will help others if they are looking for a veterinarian in making the best decision where to take their pets. The last place I took Bailey, my dog, (Boxer), in Goleta gave me 3 options/surgeries for medical treatment. All 3 options were so expensive and not all of the treatments would have truly benefited Bailey's condition. It was also delivered in a very matter of fact way; it made me very sad and confused. As most of us feel/know our pets are truly a part of our family and depend on us. There was no care factor or compassion for our situation from the veterinarian. The medical assistant showed concern and in a caring way referred me to Dr. Sam. He said, "That's where I would go." I called West Valley before I left the parking lot and explained the situation. His staff was kind, compassionate, and they got me in the very next day. I was extremely grateful for Dr. Sam's expertise, direct communication, high level of experience, and personal compassion he showed for myself/situation and my beloved Bailey. Along with his willingness to go above and beyond for the most positive outcome was so appreciated. I will always be sincerely grateful. Being referred to Dr. Sam was a blessing and the care we received was unmatched in every way. You can trust that your pet will receive affordable, compassionate, and competent best care treatment at West Valley Veterinary Clinic. Thank you Dr. Sam and staff, sincerely! April and family.

I have been using West Valley Veterinary Clinic for over 20 years, and I wouldn't change anything. Dr. Sam has guided my dogs, and me through thick and thin. My first dog, a Queensland Heeler mix, lived 17.5 years. Dr. Sam was always very compassionate to my dogs, and I have had a lot dogs, and Dr. Sam has always been my Vet. I trust him with my dogs, my dogs like him, and I highly recommend him.
