Called about an appointment we had scheduled within 2 weeks of getting our kitten so it was supposed to be a free exam. We showed up on time and they cancelled our appointment because we didn’t show up 15 minutes early even though it was never stated that we had to do so. They then recommended us a reschedule appointment right outside the 2 week free timeline. Very disappointed and a little bit suspicious.

I have been a client at University VCA for over 20 years. While things have changed over the years one thing has remained consistent and steadfast: They love animals. The staff at this clinic are extraordinary. I have nothing but good things to say about the past and current veterinarians: Dr Fujitani, Dr Kimura, Dr Casuga, Dr Lee, and Dr Tom. They are always available to answer my questions when I call or text them, even if it's to repeat instructions or clarify information they previously gave me. I have had several health scares with my animals and the staff at University VCA take a caring and balanced approach of concern and moderation. They will run tests or refer you to a specialist if you want, but won't force or guilt you into spending more than you feel comfortable spending. They have always offered me different courses of treatment based on budgetary needs. I have been into VCA 8-9 times in one month for a variety of reasons for my three pets. Because VCA offers CareClub, those office visits are covered, which is peace of mind when my animal is sick. I don't need to worry about paying for multiple office visits when my pet is sick. The receptionists (front office staff) at VCA university are amazing. They are kind, considerate, compassionate, and extremely patient. I have had to call them repeatedly to ask questions or clarify information, or order more food. The front office staff are always busy, yet they are also punctual, polite, diligent and always on their "A game". Knowing my pets are in the hands of true animal lovers at University VCA is a type of peace of mind that no amount of money could purchase. Thank you VCA University for always taking such fantastic care of my babies!

These guys are great. Fast, friendly, and helpful. First time appointment for my cat, 100% discount from visit fees! All we had to pay for was medication. And they even gave us 1 dose free! And a cat specific goodie bag! Pretty awesome for a sunday (or any day).
