San Rafael Animal Hospital

I live 35 minutes away up in Petaluma area and for a variety of reasons went to San Rafael Animal Hospital for the first time with my dog Rose. I was pleased with every part of our visit.

They have dogs and cats with separated sides of office space.

While the staff are nice, I would recommend not taking your pet to this animal hospital because of the care we received from the doctor. We were seen by Dr. Davis. It seems like the Dr. who garnered this hospital rave reviews is no longer there or was not available for my appointment. The level of care was subpar to say the least. There was no care. The doctor did not read my pet's medical history, did not listen to the concern I was expressing, did not properly examine my pet, and worst of all, prescribed my pet medication that worsened his symptoms. A knowledgeable doctor would have known about the side effects of the medication they're prescribing and how they can exacerbate coinciding symptoms. I realized all this because I took my pet to a different animal hospital and the differen

Love this vet office, always amazing! They did an amazing job on this guy removing his right kidney and tumor surrounding the kidney. He has bounced back amazingly!
