I came in with my pug about a month ago to diagnose why my dog went blind after a relatively small bump to the eye. I figured because I knew the owner and was referred by her they would at least try to help me. Thats not what happened. They mis-diagnosed my dog and prescribed 4 medicines ($200 worth) that she did not need. The next day she saw a different doctor/specialist who said we needed to get our money back because none of what they said was evident. Not only did Hancock park say no, but they also admitted they lied about the in-house optimologist seeing my dog (they said they had a 2nd opinion, which is why i paid $200 for the medicine) and they did not. I to this day am battling via email to get my money back considering my dog was wrongfully diagnosed or AT LEAST a free follow up visit to make up for it. 0 out of 5 stars if I could.

It is very true about the pricing being significantly higher than other vets. If you were getting great service and concern for your pet......you can justify this inflated pricing. My experience with them was not the case at all. They put my dog in jeopardy by not being able to treat her. I am not sure they are that experienced and knowledgable either. If you are going to this vet for routine shots and dont mind paying higher rates...then it is a good bet for you. If not, I would keep shopping around for someone else because having a good, available and competent veternary office is essential to all pet owners. I am highly disappointed and saddened I did not realize this sooner. Please be aware.

After much trial and error finding a competent, kind and non-mercenary type vet in Central LA/Hollywood area, this vet is a great find! Very kind and caring, Dr. White (who is new and took over the practice recently) seems like what we all perceive a vet should be. She was thoughtful, took time to talk to me before my dogs procedure. Her staff was thoughtful also, called the next day to find out how my dog was. They also participate in vet discount and insurance programs. This is a small mom & pop type business and it should be supported. Its nice to see this type of practice still around in todays day and age!

I can always depend on the staff to be compassionate,concerned and just always add an extra dash of Love, The Doctors are so concerned about not overcharging you and will definitely share if a test isnt needed. I recently went through a traumatic experience thinking that I would lose my beloved Pet to diabetes and HGE.Today, my Pet is back home and happy! Thanks to Hancock Veterinary Clinic! The moment you walk in the door ,you just feel you are in the right place! Love to each and everyone on The Hancock Team. Dr White had a vision and it definitely came true!

This place is the worst. We took my friends dog there because he was panting heavily and had a tender belly. After almost $1000 they told us his potassium level was so high he might die, and that we needed to take him to a different hospital because they were closing at 6. We took him to VCA on sepulveda, which is amazing! They told us his potassium was fine, that Hancock vets must have mis-read their machine or their machines are not calibrated correctly. This place is a scam- and this is the short version of the story. Dont waste your time here

I was really impressed by this place, the staff was great and the vet was just fantastic. My cat had an eye infection and they managed to get me in on short notice which was a relief, and Dr White explained everything in a friendly and concise manner. Having just moved into the area I was really apprehensive about getting a new vet, but these guys put me right at ease. Prices were very reasonable too and on par with my last vet, I very much recommend this place to anyone that needs a quality vet, theyre too few and far between these days.

Wed been taking our dog here since she was a pup (3 years now). I loved it -- clean facilities, friendly staff. And since we live in the hood, I was always quick to recommend it. But theyve become just too damn popular. When my dog cut her paw in the park, I called to get her an appointment. This was a Thursday -- and the soonest they had was Tuesday. But! The receptionist told me if I wanted to pay 2x the vet visit fee (or $125.00), I could get her in that day. So much for loyalty. Ive found a new vet.

"When my 12 year old orange tabby "Tigger" developed a weird rash/allergy and started living in his litter box, I took him to several different Vets. Though they all had theories about what it might be, none could affected a cure. Then I took Tigger to see Dr White. She was warm, compassionate, caring and extremely knowledgeable. After a short while, Tigger was back to his old self! The overall atmosphere of the clinic is calm and soothing and her diverse staff is quite delightful. Id give her an A+."

Very clean. Very professional. February is dental hygiene month; discount on teeth cleaning. They offer alternative medicine referrals or visiting technicians - acupuncture, no anesthesia dental cleaning etc. Clearly they love animals. Small parking lot. They will refer to City of Angels for specialties such as oncology or cardiology.

Doctor and staff are great, but in shopping around for same food, flea meds and tests, this clinic is 20-30% more expensive than most. If you are old money in Hancock Park, by all means, bring your pet here. If you are on a budget with no pet insurance, you might want to shop around and save yourself some money.

Dr White is the main vet there and I would recommend making an apt directly with her. There are no hidden costs and very fair for the price. She cares, very empathetic. The receptionist was understanding when I had to reschedule last minute (1 day before) for health reasons. Your pet is worth every penny!

Weve been to several vets, and were sticking with this one. Dr White and her staff really made us feel at home, and I could tell that they cared for our dog almost as much as we do. I would highly recommend them.

They really helped with our elderly hound when weve run into crunches. Kudos to the front office.
