I have been going to this veterinarian clinic for 8 years, with my three dogs two of those are deceased. In my opinion the clinic has been slipping in service and has a distracted front-end. After 8 years, still no one in the front knows my name or the pet's name even though a number of people have been there during that time. It is not unusual to have to wait a significant amount of time for a doctor's attention, this is whether you walk in or have an appointment. The last time I was there for a minor surgery for my dog we found he had been bitten by another dog, of course which the clinic denies. I have put up with this clinic because Dr. Baum is a very good and responsive veterinarian and I do respect him. I will be moving my business somewhere else.
I have been taking my pets to Center Sinai for over 20 years. It started with a rabbit. I have had 4 dogs through the years and all of them have been patients at Center Sinai. My personal vet of choice is Barry Baum because he is the one I have seen the most over all these many years. Dr. Baum is very intuitive as to what is wrong with your pet--like a Zen master for animals. I wouldn't trust any other facility with my animals. The only time they have seen other vets is when they needed specialized care and only after Dr. Baum told me they needed to go elsewhere and I have always taken his recommendation of where I should take them. Their prices are fair and probably below what other facilities charge in the area. I have also boarded my pets there while I'm on vacation. I can't say enough good things about Center Sinai and over the years I have recommended them to many people who have had the same experience as I--which is excellent! Thanks Center Sinai for all your years of excellent care to my furry family members!
I no longer live in Los Angeles & word don't express how much I miss Center Sinai. Of course, almost all of my experiences were good. The staff were friendly, efficient, & professional. The vets were compassionate & informative. I rarely had to wait an unreasonable amount of time. You can't beat 7 day a week emergency care without charging exorbitant fees. Dr Baum called me personally in the evening when our family cat was diagnosed with end stage renal failure & spent extra time on the phone explaining treatment options & alternatives. It is a busy clinic with small town personable service. Only drawback is they are short on parking.
The Good: The "old timers" doctors are great! And, the pet insurance that they offer, is golden... The Bad: Sometimes the front desk staff and medical assistants in the back are a tad moody and send negative vibes to the clients, this doesn't help when your worried sick and stress out about your pet... :( ¡I'm sure you would agree, we all have bad days, but more smiles from your staff members goes a long, long way and makes our work days or nights go faster... Keep smiling! :))
Our Tasha Belle has been a patient of Center Sinai ever since we've had her. No matter what we take her in for, whether it's something major or my overreaction to something minor, by the time we leave we're assured that Dr. Baum, Dr. Plechner, Dr. Carrillo will do their ABSOLUTE best to take care of both our baby and our concerns. We love the staff; everyone is helpful and awesome. (The vets even give free belly rubs and ear scratchies!!!!). We have a vet hospital within 4 blocks of our home but we will always be patients of the best vet center ever. Thanks to all of you for helping us keep our Tasha B. with us for 10 years. You are truly second to none.
