After getting my dog back after deployment and finding a new vet, I’ve realized this place was HORRIBLE! I paid 40$ a month for a membership that gave me nothing in return and still had to pay around 500$ every visit I made. The vet was extremely rude, calling my dog overweight without giving any actual ideas to help considering his prior owner did not keep him active. One time I came and my dog peed because he was so nervous as they tried to take him away and they didn’t try to comfort him. Instead the vet called him “a chihuahua.” I am happy to be at any other vet honestly, all they care

We've visited San Marco Animal Hospital twice over the past year. This is not our regular vet and both times have been emergency situations on a weekend. The care, attention, and treatment for our dogs on both occasions was excellent. Dr. Raj and staff were clear, concise, and pragmatic with their diagnosis and approach to treatment. Lastly, their communication and concern following up with us in the days after each visit was genuine and greatly appreciated.

Worth the drive!!! San Marco Animal Hospital Staff is compassionate and well educated. They got us in and out quickly, and most of our time in the office was actually spent with the veterinarian. The receptionist was very empathetic with our concerns and helped make our appointment process as smooth as possible. Halfway through the appointment, my cat was purring in the technicians hands. 5 stars directly from the patient, who's energy levels are back to normal. We are excited to continue working with the care team here, and will be back soon for routine shots and follow-up.

First of all, let me stay I never leave reviews however I have felt so strongly about this I felt the need to. I have even waited several weeks hoping that I would not be as angry however that has not changed either. I'm new to the area and San Marcos was recommended to me and I would rather drive 600 miles back home to take her to see our regular vet than to ever visit this veterinarian again. When we got there they took our dog out of the room and left us sitting there. The vet tech came in to tell us since we were new patience they would waive the $40 office visit she later came in and said

I called San Marco Animal Hospital after waking up and finding one of my dogs passed away unexpectedly overnight. When I first called, I was told that they would be able to help me. I was given the price it would cost to cremate my Kota and was told to call before I came in to make sure someone would be able to help me. Around an hour later, I called back to tell them I was heading over after mustering the strength to pack my puppy’s body up into a car. I get there and the woman at the front desk was absolutely HORRIBLE. She was very dismissive, as I’m sitting in front of her with tears streaming

Dr. Gutta is the primary vet my cats see but we've also seen Dr. Raj and they're both fantastic vets. They take the time to explain everything very well, they're thorough, and they genuinely care for my cats.
I've been coming here for a couple years now after I left San Juan Animal Hospital due to the vet there blowing me off and not taking the time to figure out what was wrong with one of my kitties, and I couldn't be happier! I even told my mother to come here and she loves this vet clinic as well!
Prices may be a little steep but you're also paying for the genuine care and attention to details

My dog had an abscess in his tooth. I called that morning and they got me quick to have him seen by the vet. He needed it removed and they scheduled surgery and had him all taken care of and better by end of the day. Everyone was helpful, friendly, and professional.

All the staff that I interacted with were caring and helpful. I had a great experience. They were excellent in caring for my dog. He was in pain and they kept me informed every step of the way. I truly appreciated the information and the caring shown to my family member and to me. He is fine and out of pain! Thank you! Thank you!

I’ve had multiple problems with this location to lying about my wellness plan and now lying and saying I wasn’t even a client so they don’t have to deal with the situation. Not a good place at all to take any pet. If I could leave zero stars I would

I cannot thank them enough for saving my baby!

We needed unexpected and urgent care for our 5 year old lab on a Sunday. Our regular vet was closed, so we searched for a vet that was in close proximity and hoped that they would be able to fit us in. Our pup had been vomiting intermittently for the previous 24 hours and we could not figure out why. Dr. Raj and all the staff at San Marco Animal Hospital were very welcoming and caring, and treated us very kindly during this stressful and unexpected event. It turns out that our dog had eaten something out in the yard and had given herself a bowel obstruction. Dr. Raj came to this diagnosis after

They give great, thorough care at reasonable prices. Often they can/will offer different care options so I can choose which best suits our needs and pocketbook at the time. I'm very pleased with them.

They are so friendly and very helpful. They are very patient and are always available to help and answer questions. We’ve never had anything but great service from the entire staff for our Chiweenie.

I brought my black cat, Baby Midnight in for services last March. After going to Banfield and not finding any resolutions, Dr. Gutta and Dr. Raj immediately began investigating and discovered my boy was dealing with triaditis. The compassion and determination the staff showed really made a difference in Baby Midnight’s life. He underwent… treatment for 8 months. While he lost the fight with triaditis in October, it made such a difference to have the compassion and care of San Marco Animal Hospital. When I get another cat, I will be signing him up for the vet plan there. I’m proud

Originally I would have recommended San Marco. They first treatment given to my dog was good. However, I paid $40 a month for a year and not one time needed their services. Now I needed to get flea medication for my dog because during summer the fleas get worse and she is miserable. Her normal medication wasn’t working so we needed something from… the vet. However I call them to get a flea med for her today and they refuse to give it to me because I can’t bring her in right away for an appointment. I work and my fiancé works. It may be several weeks before we have a chance
