SOCAL Veterinary Hospital

Dr. Gertz has been treating Steve for a pancreatitis flare up (don't try those Wuffles treats you see advertised all over. Good marketing campaign but very bad for your dogs if you dig a little deeper). Anyway, Dr. Gertz and her team do an amazing job taking care of Steve and explaining to us what is going on. Steve has a pre-existing spine condition and the SOCAL Vet team always pay attention and are extra cautious to ensure his safety while being taken care of. We've been coming here for years (prior to the new doctors) now and will continue to do so. Steve is in great hands at this office and your pet will be too!

I had such a great experience at SoCal Veterinary Hospital in San Marcos with my puppy, Phoenix! From the moment we walked in, the front desk staff was so friendly and welcoming—it immediately put me at ease. The nurse who did Phoenix’s initial evaluation was incredibly attentive and made sure he felt comfortable the entire time. The doctor was also amazing—super kind, patient, and took the time to answer all of my questions without rushing. As a pet parent, that really means a lot. Overall, the entire visit was smooth, caring, and professional. I’m so happy we chose SoCal Veterinary Hospital for Phoenix’s care and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great vet experience! 🐾💙

Dr Gertz and everyone at SoCal Vet is amazing, I can call and not feel like I am the crazy Frenchie Mom. They always ease my concerns and doesn’t do unnecessary things. I am always given the least expensive option and what can wait vs what might be needed. I honestly considered not moving because of this dr and vet staff but unfortunately I need to, but definitely considering any routine visit will entail a San Marcos Visit. Kona and I will very well miss coming here.

Thank you to Dr. Luna for taking care of my Louise. It's hard to find places that will provide care for goats. Louise needed a small cancerous mass removed from her rear end. I knew Dr's. Luna and Gertz from their prior work with farm animals. I have absolute confidence in their ability and compassion. I would highly recommend them. The prices are very reasonable for the services as well. Louise was leery in the office but seems to have gotten over it now that she is back home.

Everyone at SoCal Vet Hosp, from the front desk to the vet techs and doctors, is gentle, caring and concerned about the pet's health and comfort. Prices are reasonable and there is no up-selling or overcharging. I appreciate every aspect of this practice.
