Hawthorne Dog & Cat have been taking care of my pups for the last 30 years. The entire staff are all caring folks that truly care about my dogs. I've been thru some serious issues with a couple of dogs and Dr. Freyts has always been great with his experience and compassion. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Dr. Freyts at Hawthorne Dog and Cat Hospital is an amazing find! We had a 21 year old cat. For my husband and I Paw Girl, our cat was the love of our life. As she grew old, Dr. Fretys was the word of wisdom on how to keep her comfortable and healthy. She had kidney Disease and a Thyroid Condition. He was always the voice of reason letting us know how to help her in so many ways. He came up with both the most practical and creative solutions no matter what her problems were. Towards the end we weren't sure about the timing and Dr. Fretys Let us know in the kindest of ways when it was time to let our little girl go and did it with the utmost of compassion. Dr. Freyts has been the most knowledgeable vet we have ever known and he loves his patients so much. He is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. He is a true treasure.

Hawthorne Dog and Cat Hospital really is the best place to take your pets for care. I have been taking my dogs there for about 10 years. The doctors are knowledgable and compassionate. The staff is always helpful. I think they keep their prices affordable because they care about the animals and want to make sure people have access to the necessary care that pets need. I highly recommend Dog and Cat Hospital to anyone looking for a vet they can trust. Barbara Casillas Retired teacher and animal shelter volunteer

I used Hawthorne Dog & Cat Hospital in the past when I lived in Lawndale. We moved to Torrance and used a different place once in an emergency. Now that we live in Lawndale again, they are our exclusive Vets. I made the appointment online and had no problem getting the time I had available. The staff was friendly and courteous. The service was thorough and done in a reasonable amount of time. The cost was what we expected and the information we asked for was great. I would recommend them to anyone for a job well done.

Dr. Freyts and the staff at HD&C are some of the greatest animal lovers I have had the pleasure to work with. They have taken excellent care of our four-legged furry kids and have been there when we have needed them. I would recommend them to anyone. They are simply fantastic.
