Exceptional Care and Support at Blue Pearl Veterinary Specialty in Irvine, CA I cannot speak highly enough about the exceptional care my dog, Penelope, received at Blue Pearl Veterinary Specialty in Irvine, CA, under the supervision of Dr. Berry and his remarkable team. My experience began with Penelope in severe pain due to a ruptured vertebral disc and artery. Dr. Berry's thorough examination and MRI were instrumental in diagnosing her condition accurately. His explanation was detailed and compassionate, leaving no room for uncertainty, which provided immense reassurance during a stressful time. Penelope underwent surgery the following day and remained hospitalized for three nights. Despite living 60 miles away and unable to visit daily, Dr. Berry and his team went above and beyond to keep me updated and involved in Penelope's care. Daily videos and phone calls from Dr. Berry, along with the compassionate support from his assistants, America and Brie, eased my worries and provided comfort throughout the ordeal. Moreover, the level of attention extended beyond medical care. The front office staff even assisted in finding nearby accommodations, demonstrating a genuine concern for both Penelope's well-being and my peace of mind. During Penelope's hospitalization, it was evident that she received the utmost care and attention, akin to a 5-star hotel experience. The dedication and professionalism exhibited by Dr. Berry and his team at Blue Pearl Veterinary Specialty truly set a standard for excellence in veterinary care. I am immensely grateful for their unwavering support and commitment to Penelope's recovery. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping my little girl Penelope!

Shadow has been here a lot more than we would like, but they have been amazing. Dr. Rossi and her staff with his kidney issues, Dr. Pettigrew in Neurology was upfront and honest and the several ER vets we have met over many visits for falls, random injuries, etc have all been wonderful. They have 24 hour phone service for questions and I've had people answer medication questions or help with issues over the phone all hours day or night. All the vet techs are outstanding and the front desk staff helpful and so nice. I highly recommend them to all my friends and family. Your pet would be in good hands here.

I cannot thank the team enough for taking care of my nearly 20-year-old Jack Russell terrier, Milo, in a time of emergency. Their staff has been incredibly helpful from the moment I called, the moment we showed up, his entire overnight stay, and even since he’s been back home safe and sound. If you are local + have a pet — save their number in your phone immediately. Thank you again to all the staff for your continued support and care.

Blue pearl vet took incredible care of my dog when she was going through vestibular disease and was extremely sick. They truly made me feel like they were treating my little girl as if she was their own. Although vet bills can vet expensive, they were always extremely conscious of the testing they were recommending and the money I was spending. I truly feel that their top priority was the well being of my pet and not profit which has been hard for me.to find in a vet recently. I was extremely impressed with their service and the care they provided.

The Nutrition Sciences Dept at Blue Pearl Irvine headed by Dr. Kurzbard and her coordinator, Kim is truly an outlier. One of the few double board certified, Vetrinary Nutritionists in the U.S. who is currently seeing new patients, Dr. Kurzbard is your go-to for sound nutritional advice for those pet parents ditching “Big Kibble.” I first met Dr. K, when my standard poodle reached geriatric age and I needed to up level my home preparation game. Then again, when I brought home my first toy breed puppy. Her kindness and good humor went a long way when my nerves were frazzled trying to find the right balance between nutritionally sound and palatable to my dogs. She welcomes feedback and is not adverse to making changes at the client’s request due to availability and cost. Kim, is her very competent coordinator and is available to you to dialogue on a myriad of things (not just a scheduler), and manages the flow of information expertly. Dr. K’s lengthy questionnaire and intake process is well worth your time and effort— so that she can formulate a nutritionally sound diet that is both doable for the client and appeals to their canine companion tastes. Don’t Rush Through It! As in most things, preparation and perspiration is the key to success. Let her do the work for you so your time spent in the kitchen will yield the maximum benefits for your dog.
