The hospital is accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) and provides a wide range of services, from annual wellness exams and vaccinations to surgical and diagnostic care. The staff at the Animal Hospital of Salinas are praised for their kindness and professionalism. One client mentioned that they were able to see the vet right away and that the waiting rooms are separate for cats and dogs, reducing stress for the animals. The vet, Dr. Chan, is described as compassionate and helpful. Another client expressed some frustration with recent changes to the office policies, specifically the pharmacy policy. They mentioned that the office now only calls in prescriptions to their chosen pharmacy and that if a client wants to use a different pharmacy, they have to go into the office, pick up a paper prescription, and snail-mail it to the online pharmacy. They mentioned that this policy makes it inconvenient and frustrating to visit the vet's office. Despite the recent policy changes, the Animal Hospital of Salinas has been able to provide excellent care in emergency situations. A client who is a fur babies sitter mentioned that Iris, a dog in their care, became ill and was unable to walk, breathe properly, or make any noise. The vet took Iris in without an appointment and was able to diagnose and care for her, prescribing and dispensing her medication. The client was grateful for the quick and calm service provided by the vet and the front desk staff, as it helped reduce their stress and worry. Overall, the Animal Hospital of Salinas is a place where pets receive excellent medical care and clients feel welcomed and supported.
