  Our dog had major rear end pain. Vet gave us medication to reduce swelling and reduce pain. It worked fine. Unfortunately we were not informed that it could be a disc issue. So after he recovered back to normal. But a month later his disc slipped paralyzing his rear legs. We had to put him down. It would have been nice to be informed that that could happen or what we maybe could have done with medications or care to prevent or reduce the possibility of the paralysis.

  Friendly staff, fair prices for the services they provide. However our veterinarian seems scared of our dog. It's frustrating for us because we just want a vet who won't look at the size of our dog and assume he's vicious or unpredictable. We have been continuing to use them as for the most part they're good to us, however if we are continually asked to muzzle our dog and sedate him every time we visit we will definitely be looking for someone else to care for our fur friend.

  I took my two cats to Oceanside for their annual vaccinations this year. I was very impressed with this vet clinic. One of my cats is incredibly timid and the staff took the time to make her feel reassured by feeding her treats. etc. And then, on the other hand, my other cat can be quite vicious and I was worried that the staff wouldn't be able to examine and vaccinate her successfully. When I explained about Asha's temperament prior to my appointment, staff were confident they could successfully see her and, to my surprise, they were correct! Dr. McKinlay and Kara were absolutely wonderful with Asha - they were so calm and confident. I will most certainly be returning to Oceanside in the future. You can tell that everyone who works there truly cares about pets and their welfare! Thanks Oceanside :)

  Try to get a simple question answered on the phone? Not a chance! I do not recommend this place. I brought my previous dog here...and left years ago for the exact same reason. I thought i would give them another chance- a mistake on my part. Go aomewhere else. Front end staff have unfriendly annoyed attitudes. What a disappointment.
