VCA Orange Animal Hospital

Recently Ace ("him" and/or "his") developed anxiety and stomach discomfort due to our recent move to Anaheim. His upset stomach developed into vomiting and loss of appetite. We took him to VCA Orange ("VCA") thinking that the care and treatment we would receive would be the same excellent service we received at the VCA near our previous home. The VCA Orange staff and doctors have no consideration for the welfare of the animals and/or the animal parents who walk through their doors. The only concern on the minds of every VCA Orange staff member and doctor is to maximize the profits extracted from every animal parent who walks through their doors. To the point that they negotiate upfront the cost that is required to treat your animal, like you would discuss the cost of replacing your transmission with your mechanic. Animals are living breathing members of our families not inanimate objects. I would strongly urge you to reconsider when thinking of walking through the doors of this animal hospital. As a dog parent I consider my dog to be my child and expect my child to be treated and looked after with the utmost care. Animal parents are not dollar signs. VCA Orange does not exemplify behavior of which is trustworthy and caring. VCA only wants your money. Dr. Belinda Lee and her staff at VCA Orange are extortionists who pry on the hearts and miss fortunes of animal parents. If your animal is sick select another animal hospital to take your pet to. Best regards to all animal lovers. Don't fall victim to the VCA money trap.

Brought my kitten and 9 year old cat in for a general check up and shots on two separate occasions and everyone was so so nice. Everyone from the staff at the front desk, to the vet tech and the vet were extremely helpful and informative through my visit. So happy to have found a great vet!

Our dog, Cooper is super fearful. I was really nervous about finding her a new vet after we moved too far away from our old one. Everyone at VCA Orange has been so great with her in our two visits so far! In fact, Cooper warmed right up to one of the girls there who we really appreciated showing Coop that strangers aren't scary! Our other dog, Fidus, is scared of needles (I know, how does he even know what they are, right?) but the staff has given him his vaccines twice with no issues! We are really pleased and feel safe with our dogs in their hands!

If I could give this place a zero star rating I would. I took my pregnant dog for a check up and she couldn’t tell me if she was pregnant unless she did an $300 ultrasound even tho she she was obviously due in a month. I was charged $80 just for a vet to suggest giving her puppy food. I tried giving this place the benefit of the doubt after visiting a few times but the service is very disappointing and to add expensive. Never again

After taking my dog here after he injured his toenail on one of his paws, I was immediately met with hostility from one of the nurses. Then, when discussing treatment options I asked for cheaper options as I am an 18 year old student and had to pay the full bill. The nurse immediately became passive aggressive and basically blamed me for anything bad that would result from not surgically removing the toenail and using sleeping gas. Since then, the nail fell out a day later and the dog has made a quick and easy recovery with only antibiotics in case of infection. So not only was I lied to about the consequences of not performing surgery, but this hospital also attempted to scam me out of hundreds of more dollars after spending an already absurd amount on antibiotics and bogus “inspection fees”. Avoid at all costs and go to your family vet if you can.
