WORST VET IN OROVILLE OR ANYWHERE! DO NOT TAKE YOUR PET HERE, CAUSE IF YOU DO, IT MAY BE THE LAST VET VISIT YOUR PET EVER HAS! I took my 6 year old Maltipoo to #ButteOrovilleVeterinaryHospital only because it was on the main road OroDamblvd and was the only place I knew to go being new to the area. What A MISTAKE! My pure white dog haf blood on his bottom, which is the 2nd time Ive seen this happen to him. So thinking, "no big deal, is another burst anal gland". Thinking I would take him in, get it flushed and hed be fine, I went alone, even giving him a sedation pill for the drive, which I THOUGHT would be the worst of it. WRONG! I told the doc (name Ill have to pull the paperwork on to list that and the date which was early 2014) that it was likely a burst anal gland and that he was sedated, drove pod to get a coffee and come back 1/2 hour later. NEVER in my wildest dreams did I think I was coming back to hear he had a mass that was most definitely CANCER that needed surgery (partnering with Valley in Chico for Chemo)!! On to of that they sedated him so badly i thought i wad going to lose him THAT night! Hysterically crying, I felt something wasnt right! I left with my dog thankfully, pulled over crying and called my husband who sent someone to pick us up because i was too distraught to drive! My husband called a local friend who recommended we take my Tucker to Dr. Craig at #LookAheadVeterinaryHospital for a second opinion. THANK GOD WE DID!!! Dr.Craig put my pup on antibiotics and took a wait calmer approach and haf me bring him back 2 weeks later, at which point after checking he says, "You want the good news, or the good news?!: I about kissed him right THEN and THERE!! It indeed was just a burst anal gland that was fine after antibiotics and flushing! I have him A BIG HUG, thanked God and my hubs friend for telling us about Look Ahead! Dr. Craig really cares, and isnt money hungry like the other Vet. I was contacted by Asha whos dog was sadly and tragically killed, actually mutilated by ButteOrovilleVet. She had been trying to sue but needs backing. If you have a horror story, please contact her or I. Oh, interestingly enough, i went to PetCo in Oroville to buy a soft cone so my dog would bite area, and when i asked the clerk could i take collar or to try on my dog who was in the car wirth my hubs, she asked what happened. I told her my nightmare story of one very, and how great the 2nd Vet was WITHOUT even mentioning names, and she says, "Let me guess, you went to ButteOroville, then LookAhead." I was blown away! Who knew to think to look to them for a review BUT they KNEW! My hubs n I wrote a review on this before and it suspiciously disappeared! To the people who trusted them and put their pets down or had useless surgery, Im sooo sorry! Pets are family, ALWAYS get 2nd or 3rd opinions! Theyre worth it!! Hope this helped!

I live 40 mins away and I drove to take my cat in to be seen! First I waited over an hour just to have someone come to the room to ask about what was going on and then I waited another 35 mins before the doctor came in! I dont remember his name but he was not friendly at all. Barely talked to me did quick check took some blood and sent me on my way with some pain meds and antibiotics! My total cost was over 300$. When he called all he told me was her white blood cell count was down and continue antibiotics. Come. Back if no improvement. Well she improved but like 3 months down the line all her start back up but worse. Turns out she had pyometra which is serious. I dont habe the money to get her better and now she had to be put down! I was devastated If the doctor would have been more professional and talk to me to let me know more this might have been avoided! All he cared about was the money! The other staff that I dealt with was nice but not him. Take your pets somewhere that a doctor will talk to you and give you more facts and what to look for. Not here where you get a 2 minute quite time

We will never spend another dime at this vet. The doctor we saw made inappropriate sexual jokes about me when alone in the room with my dog. Then had the nerve to say that my husband and I dont care about our dog and need to take better care of her. This was the 3rd time in 2 months we had brought our dog in mind you... if I was such a bad dog owner Im pretty sure I wouldnt have brought her in multiple times for the same issue AND spent over $1000.00 at your hospital. This place is horrible and I will drive the 30 minutes to chico for our future animal care needs!

Friendly staff, courteous and kind to animals. Wont let you in the OR, but theres a glass door so your pet can see you. Slight ding for not letting us know when our animals were due for their shots, but we transferred our records when our old vet passed away so well see if they get the records straight now that weve been with them for over a year. Theyre affiliated with an online pet meds site so good prices and availability.

This is one of the most professional vets I have had the pleasure to deal with. I am with a dog rescue and they contacted us about a dog that had been hit by a car. They fixed him up the best he could be for now and were nice to take the time to go over everything thing they did. I highly recommend this vet and if I lived closer they would be my vet..

Horrible. Very rude both times I went. The vet was ok but the girls that work there treat you and your animals like its just a paycheck. My best friends kids were with me and had both of them crying the way they treated the dog.

Best Veterinary Clinc in the Butte Co. area! My fur-baby and I have always been treated with respect and unending compassion. My girl is very ill and treated so well by the staff and by Dr. Brittany Davis

Dominique Wilgus

The experience was awful. The staff treats you like crap. Wouldnt reccomend this place to anyone. I wouldnt send my worst enemy there. Havent been to a worse vet.
