Literally the WORST vet ever!!! I cannot stress that enough. Let's start with the fact that I get a call from the Dr. stating that my 8lb pom has some cuts on her arm ( these cuts are from where he scratched her skin off trying to place the IV in.) I asked him if "she was bad" figuring that is a fairly simple questions for a "Dr." to answer, apparently not, his response was " I cannot answer that I do not know what your dogs emotions are" at this point I'm extremely worried/ becoming increasingly frustrated at this mans inability to explain the current state of my dog. When I arrive I'm greeted by a young girl who is very excited to tell me how cute my dog is and that she was such a good girl. I ask, good girl? she says ya I had her up here on the counter with me the whole time before she went into surgery. As you can imagine I'm shocked at how incredibly unprofessional these people are. I ask for my dog to be brought out. I look at my sleepy little girl barely awake from surgery when I notice her front leg literally bleeding from where this hack of a vet tore her flesh off. I paid, I left and I will never go back. Maybe their not bad people, but lets put it this way THEY DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOUR DOG. AT ATLAS ANIMAL HOSPITAL ON MARINE DRIVE IT IS QUANTITY VS. QUALITY. Save your animals the agony take your pets to a real Animal Hospital not a Butcher shop.

Dr Mahdi Botyari at Atlas hospital should be barred from practice. He made me hold my poppy as he tortured the poppy for 15 minutes! we brought in the poppy a day before another vet had checked him without the poppy screaming even once! she said its laxating patella. the next day I said let's get a second opinion and I will never forgive myself for it! Dr Mahdi Botyari was inpatient from the beginning. Mahdi Botyari put a very tight mask to tighten face of the poppy and close the mouth ! made me and my husband hold it while he tortured it with his hands as the poppy was screaming for maybe 10 minutes! the poppy was turning his head in the air from pain and crying and screaming so loud even with the mask on and having a hard time breathing! finally I said stop it!!! whatever you are doing stop it!!! he said if you are too upset go out or I will take it to the back and examine! so I went out crying! I could hear the poppy's screaming from outside! I went back in put the dog on the table and the poor poppy fainted from pain!!! and he says: " I have read the other doctors notes from yesterday and I confirm it is laxating Patella!" the only reason we didn't say anything for more than 10 minutes was that we thought he has discovered something new!! to torture my dog?!!! the vet yesterday said exactly the same things without my dog screaming and crying even once! if you hear the name Mahdi Botyari get your pet and run away! he has no feelings for the pets! I will report him to their college!

Really friendly front staff, the smell of cat is very present, but it is clean. Dr.Cynthia is amazing, genuine, charismatic, and informative. Made me and my pet feel at ease. We had a check up on her ears, got a rabies shot, and she had a teeth cleaning the week after. The doctor did a great job no extractions, and at a very low cost considering the procedure. Make an appointment to see Dr.Cynthia.

I took my kitten here about 2 weeks ago and it was the worst kind of veterinary care I have ever seen. Apparently they have really nice vets there but it must not be the case for Dr. Mahdi. This guy has no clue what he doing and should be barred from practice in medicine. My cat was vomiting so he decided to try to rack up a bunch of expensive xray bills for no reason. I explained trying antibiotics would likely be sufficient. He then gave me ONE pill (which he said he would let me try) and charged me $20 for it. The pill was supposed to stop the vomiting but when i looked it up online the drug was just an antacid... He told me the best thing to do was to cut my cat open and see if theres anything inside. He said we should go through a lengthy and expensive procedure..The cat got better a few days later on her own.(The cat was just sick) If i had listened to Dr. Mahdi then my cat would have gone into surgery for nothing and id be out $2000. What kind of doctor recommends surgery without any reason?? Dont trust this guy..

OK, I don't know if things have changed big time there, but I love this place.I have been going there for years, and these crappy reviews always killed me. After this time, I had to write the truth. Brought my poor cat in and they stayed open late for me, then had 3 post check ups and it was all included in the original price. (Which was...I bet 500 bucks less than down the road at the "cat house " :) ) I love the secretary very helpful and there was no smell, ok a faint disinfectant, the place is clean. I went to the back and saw the operating area and holding area, clean. And I gotta tell you the Vet was super nice! I am not racist, so maybe that is the problem with some reviewers, but whatever, I give it 5 stars!
