I've been a very bad dog mom the last few months and couldn't bring him in to be treated for his skin issues. Finally I broke down and couldn't take it anymore, I had to get him seen asap, before he lost the other half of his fur. Please judge me, I know I have been judging myself about this. I noticed that Alta Animal Hospital was open late, which was a huge reason I hadn't taken him in, my schedule. I called to see if they had any openings in the evenings and they told me they could see my big ol goofball puppy dog the next evening. I was so excited! The next day came and I brought my pupper in, everyone was so quick to greet him and not one person was afraid to touch him (he looked so bad that it looked like mange...yes, I know. Bad pet mom, here...but honestly just a broke one). They brought us back, did the examination and determined that it definitely was not mange, but recommended he spend the night to be able to find out the cause and best way to treat him. I came and picked him up the next day, he didn't even want to leave! He in fact was trying to go back into the examination room instead of with me...that right there...that speaks volumes! Granted, his a great big baby. But still...he was poked and prodded, had a biopsy and still wanted to stick around! Fast forward to almost a week later and I brought him back in tonight 5/14/24, to begin his new treatment plan. He was so excited to see his friends! He was giving them kisses and everything! We were able to come up with a plan that could hopefully work with my budget and still keep him on the mend. I too wanted to kiss everybody when I heard that! Lol. Just kidding. But seriously. I was grateful...so very grateful. When we were heading out to the lobby, my big ol galloof tried to turn to go to the kennel. He was not wanting to leave his friends. We ended up sticking around for a few extra moments, as while we were walking out, someone had come in with a cat in bad shape. They knew that they weren't able to do much to save her, and yet you could see the anguish in their eyes while talking to the poor kitty's owner and letting him know the only possible option to save her would be going to another that might be able to do the surgery. But the chances still weren't good. Seeing everyone working there, especially the Vet, and how empathic they were to this poor guy and his sweet young kitty just sealed it for me. I love the place I had been going to for nearly 20 years. But this one has hours thar work for me. Nothing against the other one, they seem ti run about the same, price-wise. But my great big boy that all but worships the ground I walk on would rather stay there with them than come home with me. Then working with my budget for the care he needs and seeing the anguish in their faces and eyes on not being able to save the poor little kitty...as words the Terminator said...I will be back! In a month, as a matter of fact! Lol And you should, too!

Great Doctor and good prices! I neutered my 3 rabbits here and prices were reasonable. Another vet wanted to charge me over $600 minimum !! Dr.Sran is very passionate about his job and I can tell he cares about his patients. Highly recommend this vet if you have any exotic animals. 😊

Do NOT bring your bunny/rabbit here. I needed an emergency vet, and unfortunately, the vet hospital I normally take my bunny to was closed, so I had no choice but to bring him here. Everything seemed fine until he was called in. At my usual vet hospital, I am always asked to take my bunny out of his carrier. At this place, the vet tech decided to take him out, but instead of picking him up correctly (one hand under the chest and the other hand under the bottom), the vet tech picked my baby up BY THE SKIN OF HIS NECK. This is EXTREMELY dangerous for bunnies/rabbits, and it can cause permanent damage. I freaked out and told the vet tech to be careful. For the rest of the appointment, the vet tech held onto my bunny, but he was not gentle at all. Thankfully, my bunny was not injured by this careless, incompetent vet tech, but ever since then, I have regretted taking him here and not taking serious action against that vet tech. I wish I knew his name (vet tech was a young male), but please, for your bunny's sake, do not take the risk of coming here. My heart hurts every time I think about what happened. If I could, I would give this place negative stars.

This is my go to vet for all my pets. Doctor is very caring and great communication. He really loves animals and it shows. His staff is always friendly and helpful. His prices are fair. I love that they have weekend and evening appointments available. Has made it much more convenient for appointments without me missing work. I dropped Abby due to extreme price hike and have now been with Alta 2 years. Very pleased with service.

Took my pup here around Feburary for his first ever visit after bringing him home. I was told by the breeders that since this was my first dog, the vet would give me a little basic information on pet care, but he didn't. he just gave me a pamphlet. (I'd already done extensive research on owning a puppy for the first time so it's not like i needed the education). he didnt even advise me not to let my 3 month old puppy around other dogs if he hasn't finished his vaccines yet. When the vet walked into the room, the first thing he asked me was "what kind of breed is this?" it was a little concerning to me that he didn't recognize a corgi (I feel like they have pretty distinguishing features). On top of that after I said "he's a pembroke welsh corgi" he kept saying "what's that?" I was really shocked to be honest. I had already pre-paid for all of his vaccines so the only reason i kept all of the follow ups was to finish all of his vaccines. He also gave me medication and charged me for it without asking if I wanted to purchase it? It was just medication to keep my pup's ears clean. Definitely could have done without it or would have liked if he asked if I wanted to take it. Another thing that i noticed was that they were still using a paper system (paper charts, booking appointments using a planner/ calendar of some sort). when i had called and asked for my pup's medical records and itemized receipt for his first visit, they rewrote the receipt in front of me because they didn't have the initial one??
