I took my new kitten here for a check up, fecal test, and his last round of vaccines. From the first phone call to picking up my cat post-visit, Balboa Vet Hospital provided a very pleasant experience. COVID-19 precautions are still in place, so I dropped off my cat at the front door and then spoke with the vet via phone call. She was incredibly warm and ready to answer my questions as a first time cat owner! She even probed me for more questions to make sure I felt confident in my cat's care. After the visit, I received a call with my cat's test results within 24 hours as promised. Overall, this place is great, and I would recommend it for both new and experienced pet owners!Lexy S.

I'm still feeling sad right now after making the decision to put down my 20 year old cat, but I have to say I would be feeling worse if it weren't for the professionalism and the caring way the staff and Dr. Gunderson treated my cat and I. The Dr. Helped my cat die painlessly and with dignity, I was allowed to stay with my beloved cat as long as I wanted. Thank you Dr. Gunderson, if I decide to get another cat, Balboa Veterinary clinic will be my clinic of choice.Sharon Simpson
