- JJJerrySep 22, 20251.0please do not take your pet to this place
- IVisol vaqueroSep 10, 20255.0Very professional staff, I was worried about my dog and I called to make an appointment ASAP, they let me in just before closing and the doctor and staff were very kind and professional. I didn't wait at all, I change clinic because I wasn't getting the right attention in the last one plus it was very expensive.
- ECelaine choiAug 23, 20251.0This vet showed zero compassion and treated animals with cruelty. I strongly advise anyone reading this: do not bring your pet here.
- MLMonica LeeAug 22, 20251.0This clinic is the worst place I have ever taken a pet. The way my animal was treated here was disturbing, careless, and inhumane. Instead of showing compassion or professionalism, the staff handled my pet roughly and made me feel like their life didn’t matter. I left traumatized by what I saw and completely heartbroken at how little care they showed. I would never recommend this place to anyone who loves their animals. If you care about your pet’s safety and well-being, please go elsewhere. There are far better veterinarians who actually value animal lives and treat them with kindness.

What should I know about post-operative care after spay/neuter surgery?
For optimal recovery after spay/neuter surgery, adhere to pain medication instructions strictly, maintain regular feeding habits unless advised otherwise, keep bedding clean and dry, limit activity for approximately two weeks, prevent licking of the incision site, and monitor for signs of concern such as lethargy, loss of appetite, or discharge. Contact us promptly if you have any concerns.
Do you have an in-house pharmacy and diagnostic facility?
Yes, Western Animal Hospital is equipped with an in-house pharmacy for convenient medication access. We also have digital X-ray capabilities and an in-house diagnostic laboratory to support efficient and accurate health assessments for your pets.

Dr. Kim will provide guidance on nutrition, exercise, and home dental care practices. We will also discuss preventive options, including spay/neuter procedures for pets not intended for breeding.
