My guy and I came to Mammoth (my first time) and my 2-yo husky had diarrhea that got worse into the night and next day. We live at near sea level and I thought maybe it was altitude sickness since it didn’t kick in until we arrived. She was going downhill so fast, I cleaned up so many messes, I was terrified it was life-threatening. We’re over 300 miles from her vet so I looked up local vets and Alpen popped up just over a mile away. After calling ahead, their lovely receptionist said they’d squeeze my girl in. Dr. Teslaa and his tech were wonderful, effortlessly thorough and efficient and

Glad he came after hours to help my fur baby. Very friendly and great with all my fur babies. He gave us a great piece of mind to know she will be alright.

We had to take our cat in to say goodbye in an emergent situation. The Vet was rough, quite rude to us, jammed our cat with a sedative because she was anxious and wouldn’t stay still, without warning us first. He barely said anything to us, was not kind to us or our suffering cat. It was a very traumatizing experience for us in a moment that was already very painful.

Dr.Teslaa is the most competent and wise vet I have ever had the pleasure of having my pets be treated by. He always puts your animals welfare before his pocketbook and your feelings. Honorable.
I live in the bay area and I still take my dogs to him. He makes the vets HERE look incompetent, shady, and lazy.

So we were camping and our little Boston terrier got loose and got into a fight with a my cousins husky. Alpen was able to squeeze us in for wound care that day. Very much appreciated!
Vet was very knowledgeable. We had a great experience! Bailey the Boston is healing up and very happy at home.

Saved my dogs life! Nothing means more than that. Dog collapsed on a Sunday and doc answered his cell phone and got us through it. Things were touch and go for a week but their whole staff was on top of it 24/7! Thank you from the bottom of my heart and my family’s

Dr Teslaa was amazing with my senior dog who I thought was going to be leaving us soon but he figured out what was wrong, gave us hope and started us on a treatment plan. The doctor and his staff are caring and sensitive and they think outside the box....which I love!! Thank you!

The Dr. and his staff were incredibly helpful. They helped my dog to feel comfortable. They didn't do anything unnecessary and the prices were very reasonable. Honestly, the best vet I've ever been to.
