Signal Hill Pet Hospital was my go-to for regular shots & check-ups. Dr. Boctor was mostly kind, supportive during most visits, however not thorough enough in exams. After paying $800+ for cytology testing on mass I located on my dog's neck. Boctor did not call with results, instead Admin (undereducated staff) referred phone numbers for cancer centers/oncology, though there was no definitive diagnosis from the cytology tests. I was left confused and very worried, it was agonizing. Previous to the tests we brought our pet in for coughing/exam, some x-rays were completed earlier in the year and told, maybe its bronchitis, she's slowing down, prescribed meds. They never felt my pets neck, lymphnodes or cared to take a closer look. It was myself who felt the lump and took her in again for check-up, leading to the cytology testing. Fast forward to two weeks later, my pet was diagnosed with Insulinoma at VCA (one of the referred vets) and a tumor, the cough was a result of a progressing illness that could have been treated successfully if treated earlier and with better care and a thorough examinations, I recall also asking for a blood test to detect any new problems, they refused saying my pets recent blood tests were valid. I should have been more persistent. Unfortunately I made the mistake of trusting this vet. Go elsewhere for Dr.'s who will take time to care for your babies.

The Veterinarian was cold and rude. No empathy, no compassion. Had to pay 60 for vet to come take o e look at my small dog and say ni can't help her and basically walk out.

I found this business online and called it only be put on hold. No one came back to check the line. In my opinion that’s very bad service must be bad here.

It really hurts that people go to college and work at the vet hospitals but actually have no care in the world for animals.
Over priced, and trying to actually receive help is impossible, really breaks an animal lovers heart.

All they care about is money, and have bad attitudes. Take your business elsewhere if you truly love your pets!

The actual veterinarians were extremely nice and helpful, also the prices were very reasonable. Which I guess is the important part.
BUT..front desk staff is rude and seem miserable to be there, a smile and costumer service training is very important. They seemed like my presence was an inconvenience and I was scared to ask for a little help as I had 2 cats and a toddler with me. I know that’s no one else’s problem but I shouldn’t be scared to ask for help and maybe it’s wrong of me to think maybe they should just help. Also a lady was pushing a very old dog in the waiting room and I said something and all the front desk said is “it’s fine” I was in shock I will be reporting the lady in the waiting room to animal control. It just seems front desk has lack of training.
Photo to show how old the dog is that was being pushed forcefully by owner. Vets help animals…
Update went in for a spay and charged me 240$ and it doesn’t include a cone and or PAIN MEDS AFTER SPAY…bill came out to be 320$
I couldn’t afford medicine at the 7 day check up and they refused to help me in anyway, no payment plans, would t tell me any at home advice, wouldn’t offer a prescription, wouldn’t get me a list of medication to look online on chewy or something to get for cheaper ONE INJECTION was 240$ actually crazy all they care about is money and not the animals!!!

I want to share my experience as a Deaf POC, since many of the reviews I saw before coming here felt very critical of the staff. Personally, I had a good experience. Some reviews seemed more like “policing” the employees’ actions or attitudes, but from what I’ve seen, many of the problems actually come from pet owners. For example, I’ve witnessed owners dragging their dogs by the leash — that’s not on the employees.
When I brought in my 3–4 month old kitten for an exam, the staff treated me well. The vet I saw (a male doctor) was kind and respectful. The price was on the higher side, but honestly reasonable compared to other vet clinics.
I was initially worried because of the reviews, but I decided to call ahead and let them know I’m Deaf. They worked with me on communication, and that made a big difference. This clinic is close to my home, and I hope to build a good relationship with them over time. If not, I know I can always find another vet — but for now, I feel good about choosing this place.

I took a 4 week old kitten that looked like he was dying and the girl behind the desk ( she was old w/ glasses) told me the vet was in a meeting and she was not going to bother him for this. Now if I was a vet and a person behind the desk DID NOT PULL ME OUT OF A MEETING she would be fired! And then told me to go to the emergency vet at the circle. Which I was extremely irritated with a few months ago. Are they in this line of work for the cash or what?? Anyway thank God for Ashley a lady that over heard me in the vet office and is now nursing my little kitten back to health! Thank GOD AND ASHLEY!! I am forever in debt to you.
