Lady in the front desk is very nice, Dr. Shim is also nice. BUT My dog hurt his leg and I took him to this place, Dr. Shim said he needs to take an X-ray from my dog's hip and leg, and he said he will inject pain medicine so he can strech my dog's leg. THEY PUT MY DOG TO SLEEP only for taking an X-Ray!!!!! My poor dog still is sleeping after 4 hours. It cost me $200 to taking 2 X-ray, pain medication, and 10 advil. I don't think I go back there again.
I really like Dr.Shim and the staffs here. Every time I visited the hospital with Royal, my adorable cat, he explained all the procedures very clearly. Although I did not understand all the medical terminology, he explained in the way I was able to understand. He really showed excellent communication skills. Whenever he examined Royal, he was talking to him in a gentle voice, explaining what he was gonna do. That really helped Royal to feel relaxed, not scared at all! Their exam fee was $39, which is reasonable compared to $55 at my previous animal hospitals in Irvine. I live in Irvine, and used to pay about $200-$500 depending on the conditions of Royal in Irvine. But the price in Alton Main was very reasonable and affordable for me, and pretty close to Irvine. I am very pleased that I found the most trusted vet within 5 miles from my house.
I move to Utah this March and I truly miss Dr. Zuniga. He took care of my cats & dogs over 11 years. He is great Doctor. They always welcome with great smile. Thank you so much for everything. I miss you guys so much.
I have been taking my pets to Dr. Zuniga for almost 20 years and trust him completely with the care of my pets. He has been a very caring and compassionate doctor to my pets. The addition of Dr. Shim to his staff was a very smart choice. The two of them together provide outstanding service. This past Nov my 13 year old cat became very ill and we almost lost her. She would not be laying curled up next to me right now if it weren't for the above and beyond care that Dr Zuniga and Dr Shim provided. I will be forever grateful.
