I made an appointment at this clinic to have my old and sick cat put to sleep, his regular vet had died and was UNable to perform this service. I was very clear when I made the appointment what I wanted, that my vet had died, that I did not have records (old vets office is closed, his wife the only staff member , is grieving, they were not computerized), etc. We showed up, the traumatized cat and I, 10 minutes or so early, again I clearly stated what I was there for- after at least a 45 minutes wait, I was called into the exam room and, again, was very specific and also stated that I needed to be with the cat for the procedure. The tech got the vet who then told me that she does not euthanize any animals that are not her regular patients - if I had just left him there I am wondering what they would have done - sold him to a research lab!?? I cannot evaluate the vet, she has a right to her standards but the staff -- un professional and lacking knowledge of the procedures -AVOID!!!!!

The doctor and staff are the nicest people ever! I took in a stray to be checked out. The staff were just wonderful and understanding. They treated "this little fleabag" with so much care and love. The doctor was the best, she checked out the dog from nose to tail. Gave us information on caring for a stray, she was not at all pushy. We left the dog to be groomed and he was given shots. I was in tears when I returned my new dog was smiling and appreciated the love he received. Again this doctor is not pushy, I had to return for shots and she totally understood my finanical situation. This vet is a keeper and I have recommended her office to several of my friends. The office was clean and the staff very professional.

This hospital is so unprofessional! There is a receptionist who has a very nasty attitude and its something that cannot be tolerated in a work profession such as a hospital! My dog and I were waiting for 45 minutes and had no help until after I complained about 3 times....after I was brought in the doctor seemed bothered or irritated by something and it felt as if she was taking it out on my pet.....I am extremely upset and am going to take action in making sure that this hospital does not make the same mistake with another patient and their animal. I urge people to ignore this animal hospital!

I Have been going to this hospital since I could drive for my pets. thats 45 some years. They have tough me how to extend the lives of my many cats over the years. My first one lasted well into 18 years. Im on my last of the 7 spaced out over the years. Presently I have two 10 year old red tabby cats and 16 year old gray tabby, My good buddy. They are caring people and teach you how to extend the live of your furry friend. Sometimes you may wait longer then you expect but that is because no one is rushed out before they help you the best they can. Thanks! Alhambra Vet!

Dr. Carillo, Dr. Henstra, and the staff at Alhambra Veterinary Hospital are fantastic in every way -- so caring, so knowledgeable! We have been taking our dogs and cats to them for years! Most recently, Dr. Henstra helped save one of our neighborhood cats that we feed -- he wouldnt have made it without her! -- and Dr. Carillo is currently helping save our beloved dog Neros vision! He had a serious injury in one eye, and it turned out that he had high pressure in both eyes. We love the Alhambra Veterinary Hospital family!!! Thankful for all they have done for our furfamily!!!

Weve been taking all three of our dogs here for many years now. Our vet is compassionate, thoughtful, and pragmatic. We feel thoroughly comfortable with our pets in her hands.

Staff professional and friendly. The pet clients are afraid of service, but the patience of the staff sets them and their humans at ease.
