I don't know about everybody else's experience, however my personal experience was excellent. The Dr was very military friendly with the proof of id. but he was fast, knowledgeable and gave my dog the medicine she needed to heal. the place smelt clean and looked very clean as Well. I would recommend him all day everyday. I also called around to get price quotes his was the most reasonable price and fare. definitely he deserves your business... I just took my miniature American Eskimo there for xrays on December 20 2014

Dr. Lopez, who runs this hospital, has been the best vet I have had since our other vet retired. He knows what he is doing and does not take advantage of the love of a pet and try to make money for himself. As for the cleanliness, this hospital has been there for a very long time and as a building gets older; it is harder to make things look new again. His experience and compassion for animals, even at the end of their life is sincere and obvious to us who know him. I prefer the feel of a small town veterinarian like his hospital rather than the newness of the monstrosity of the state of our own healthcare hospitals. If you want your pet to be cared for with compassion and skill, this is the place for you. My dog is four years old and he has been his only caregiver. And always will be. I was referred to him by word of mouth by someone who adopts and cares for animals and lives in the neighborhood where he is located. And everyone I have SPOKEN to has only good things to say about him. Anyone can write a bad review online, but when it comes to real time, effort and a good reputation here in Anaheim, Dr Lopez is your best choice. And he comes with the enviable skill of being certified to give healthcare to animals besides dogs and cats. You know iguanas, birds and lizards. So don’t make bad reviews because you are unhappy with his very reasonable prices, in my opinion. I imagine you are paying way more and getting way less now that you have to go somewhere else. Not everything is what it seems using only the senses of your eyes. In my heart (the sense I count on) I know he is the best vet for me and has done well by me, my dog Duke (who he tried to save but did not try to charge me more for unnecessary treatments when it was obvious Duke was at the end of his life) and my current dog Turbo who is thriving because of his knowledge of different breeds and most important, his experience! We love and count on you Dr. Lopez!

WOW I should have read the reviews first. Every single one was true. This place is nasty and dirty. From the soiled towels to the old, ripped dirty posters on the wall. I called ahead of time to ask about the "low cost" immunizations. I was told verbally $35 per cat on the phone. I was charged $75 per cat when I left. When I questioned it she said "I am new, I didn't know". The extra charges were for worming and rabies which were given without consent, I thought it was part of the package. Then I was charged an additional $500 for my dog (blood test, shots, medicine, etc) $650 later I am very disappointed with the service I received. His availability on his schedule reflects the integrity this Dr has. NONE He has one appt per day for the next 3 weeks. He has to make his money somewhere. BEWARE!!!!!!! Don't be his next victim.

I have had up to 9 dogs at once. Use them for Pet Therapy. This means I have tried many different vets and hospitals in Orange County. Ive never been satisfied with any of them. I heard about Dr. Lopez from my mom. Dr. Carlos Lopez is friendly as soon as you walk in. You can tell he really cares for the animals. He is one of the best vets out there. I go to Dr. Lopez when its other than a regular grooming (just because is a little far from my house) . He can diagnose what my pets needs are right away. I even had a friend come here after she had gone to different vets to diagnose a problem and Dr. Carlos Lopez knew exactly what the problem was and saved her dog. He has saved my dog Lindo and healed many of my dogs. I highly recommend that you take your pets here.

Wow, people on this Google review page seem to have a lot of hostility, and that seems unfair because I really like the services we've received with Dr. Lopez and his staff. I feel compelled to share our own positive experiences. We first came here when we adopted our dachshund puppy, to have all his initial shots and checkup. Dr. Lopez and his staff were friendly, courteous, professional, and above all else, they showed lots of tenderness and care to our puppy! They handled him so well, and because of their great service we've never had a desire to bring our dog anywhere else. That was seven years ago. Since then, we've adopted another puppy (a morkie = maltese + Yorkie), and Dr. Lopez now takes fantastic care of both of them. We've also used their pet boarding service, for the times when we've gone out of town; we've used this service perhaps four times and have been very happy with them. Other services that Dr. Lopez offers that we've had for our dogs include: neuter and spay; microchip implants; grooming; dental/teeth cleaning; and certificates of good health for airlines that require that kind of paperwork for animal travel. One thing I like to see is that whenever Dr. Lopez and his staff lean down to pick up our little ones, our dogs stand up into their arms -- they are quite comfortable being held by the staff members here; they don't wiggle around or try to get away; instead, they allow themselves to be carried and held, and that's very reassuring for me to see. I highly recommend Brookhurst Animal Medical Centre. They have been continuously improving their facilities over the years, including updating their signage and their interior as well. Dr. Lopez cares about his business, and he shows this every time he takes excellent care of our dogs. If you're looking for a place with friendly staff and great service, then try Brookhust Animal. We've trusted them with our little ones for seven years, and we're extremely happy with them! Note: if you'd like to see other positive reviews, I saw other happy customers on Yelp and Insider Pages. Check them out, and judge for yourself. It would be terrible to let a few unhappy people's opinions overshadow those of happy customers' (who may not be social media-savvy, or feel the need to leave positive reviews on these kinds of sites). All I can say is that if I were to have let these few negative reviews deter me, then I would have missed out on some very nice people and great service for our dogs.
