We have been going to the Animal Hospital of Irvine for 10+ years now and without a doubt trust both Dr. Lai and Dr. Baumann to the fullest extent. There nursing techs as just as trustworthy. We often receive calls after their closing hours to get updates and check-ins on how our pups are doing after a visit if needed. You truly receive the complete package of honesty, a level of compassionate beyond, and well-rounded care with a gentle pup-side manner. Zeus, Zeke & Niko

I have just left The Animal Hospital of Irvine. I have been a pet owner for 35 years here in Irvine. And I have been to many veterinarian clinics here in Irvine. But by far, our clinic of choice is the Animal Hospital of Irvine. From the moment that we entered the front door, we experienced kind and professional treatment. The receptionist was very knowledgeable and efficient, and welcomed us. We were able to see Dr. Anne Lai and we were very pleased with her handling of our pets. We had to put one of our dear fur kids to sleep, and she was so very compassionate. We are thrilled to have her as our family veterinarian. We could not have been more pleased.

EVERY single time we have left our 7lb Chihuahua at Animal Hospital of Irvine for extended stay (3+ days) they have come back with some minor medical issue and rack up the charges on the bill. This time it was diarrhea, last time it was an ear issue, time before he was licking his paws so he had a skin condition. Exam+med/day+medication = $$$$$$$. I've brought him home every time and instantly stopped using the medication to see how he reacts. He's been fine every time and never has the issue when we brought him back to the hospital for stay. (we travel a lot) While they seem to love our pet, they have a what seems to be a good game of tacking on the charges for minor medical issues. When you are away and get a call OF COURSE you are going to have to say yes to their charges. They know this and play this game well.

Good service and friendly people..

I have brought both my cat and dog to this hospital for several years. The staff is very welcoming and the doctors are very thorough and caring. I feel like the doctors act in the best interest of my pet and aren't just trying to sell me products. I have been to several other animal hospitals and this one is definitely the best! I recommend this hospital to everyone!
