If you make an appointment with these guys make sure you check and double check that you still have your place in line. We cleared a whole day for our family to come and get our dog vaccinated. The day of our appointment there was no record of our appointment. Not to mention when I first called they told me they would call back after putting all my information in the computer they never called me back two days later I called back to make an appointment. Today was supposed to be my appointment and they have no record of it very unprofessional staff. They need to get it together

Called and asked for an appointment to get my dogs nails clipped and they said they would call me back that day or the next to make an appointment. Never heard back so my fiancee called and said they never called us back and he gave them his name and told them that our other dogs passed away and we have a new dog and we want to get his nails clipped they asked about the dog and a couple questions and told us they didn't have an appointment until later in April?? Just to get a little dogs nails clipped? Really over a month? I never cared for this place when I brought my animals here in the first

Bad vet. Took my dog Princess Peach in thinking she had eaten something. She seemed to be recovering last night and I stayed up monitoring her....Today I took my dog to a real vet, still thinking she had eaten something. The real vet immediately diagnosed head trauma. My dog is now dead. Time could have saved her if this horrible vet had known what she was doing. If she did she could have diagnosed my dog right and my dog would still be here maybe. Also she didn't return my dogs collar and I've never experienced that with a vet. Do not go here!!!!!

So I had to put two of my cats to sleep in less than a week apart . Due to the coronavirus I know you are well aware many of us are not working and can't afford animal services . My cats were poisoned , and suffering we had no choice but to put them to sleep because if we didn't they would suffer until they died . We were charged for blood testing which I understand completely with the first cat , but the second one with the same symptoms and we were charged for the same testing AGAIN. I asked if there were any payment plans or billing they could do and it was a flat out no , if you don

I have a French Bulldog that has had his puppy Care shots here and when I really needed their help they refused....
My puppy needs to be seen because there is something wrong with his eye. I've been off work, so I'm struggling pretty badly right now, and when I asked if they could simply discount the office visit, so instead of $49. I asked for $29 or $39, they said no and not very nicely. Sadly it's more about the money to this place and empathy and the love of animals is not important to this office.

I heard a disturbing story today about four mutilated kittens that were found in a trash bag last week. One of the kittens was sill alive at the time and the person that found them brought it to Apricot Vet. Unfortunately, Apricot would not help. The kitten was denied the chance to live she fought so hard to hold onto. Neither the Vet nor the vet tech did anything to help, and the kitten died. It's very sad they have no compassion. Caring for animals requires compassionate people. Needless to say, I will NOT bring my cat back there. Nor will I be bringing my other cats or ever recommend

Very dissapointed. My dog is suffering with arthritis and has been given various meds but it's not sufficient. I have left detailed messages with the staff and have been told I would get a call back for over a week but no one has called. The reason given is that they are busy which I understand but to not receive a call back in over a week and having called 4 times it's kind of hard to understand how this is happening. I've spent about $800 there in the last 3 weeks so I am a paying customer. Not satisfactory in my opinion. I will say that when the doctor actually gets in touch with

This is an excellent clinic. The staff and vets are caring and compassionate. Dr. Rodriguez is awesome. She went above and beyond when I brought my dog in. My dog was a senior with a heart condition. It was heartbreaking to see a member of your family sick and on their way out during their last days. Dr. Rodriguez did all she could to keep my Baby comfortable until her heart gave out. It meant a lot to have a team of people who would delicately handle the situation and treat my dog with the same care and compassion as I would.

I have been to numerous vets between San Francisco, San Jose and Modesto and have never quite found a vet I was happy with bringing Bear in the 12 years I have had him. Dr Woultee and all the staff at Apricot vet are by the far the most compassionate, patient, thoughtful and knowledgeable people and I'm am now fully confident in bringing him in to see them as my first choice. Bear the Pom is living with chronic bronchitis and narrowing of his trachea for several years now, and spends his time split between Patterson and San Francisco and often times I need my mom to help bring him in.

I am still bringing my dogs to Apricot. I still have great things to say about it. My three dogs have grown since my last review but are doing good. The latest shots they are getting is their flu shots. I didn't realize that's dogs can get the flu just like us. The staff love what they do and when I come in they remember my babies names which I love!!! My CeCe ended up just having allergies by the way... from the last review:) she was prescribed allergy meds and we were on our way! I was so relieved!

My wife and I have been using Apricot Veterinary Clinic for many years now. We've brought all of our dogs to them for various reasons. A few years ago our 14 year old Labrador Angus was not doing well at all. He had lived a great life and his body was just broken down so to old age. AVC came to our home and put our boy Angus down for us. It was such a blessing to have him pass in comfort at his own home and not in the vet clinic. So this leads us to yesterday. Our yellow Labrador Maybelle who was 13 was not doing well at all. She hadn't eaten in a few days so Jenn took her in to the AVC

I am from out of town staying with my family in Patterson for a few months with my two black labradors. On two different occasions, there have been emergencies with the dogs that have required my to rush them down to this vet. On BOTH occasions I was turned away--once because i did not have an appointment (although while we were in the office it was completely empty) and the other time it was 530 in the afternoon and the clerk asked the vet who said "no, I'm headed out the door". Although my dog was bleeding and needed attention--even the front desk clerk could see that--the vet
