I have nothing but great things to say about the care my pets have received from Dr. Gauthier. He has been always available for my dogs and cats needs through the years. He has tremendous medical knowledge and skills and seems to have a special connection to the animals. The staff is always sweet, compassionate and attentive. I would not take my animals anywhere else.

I recently moved to Laguna Beach with my dog and cat. I needed to find a veterinarian to take my dog to because she was not feeling well and had started vomiting. My neighbor recommended Dr. Gauthier at Arch Beach Veterinary Clinic. When I called, they asked if I could come right in which I did. The staff was very sweet and concerned about my dog and Dr. Gauthier saw me as soon as he was finished with the appointment he was working on. He spent at least 45 minutes talking to me about my dogs history and did a very thorough examination. He recommended that we do some blood tests which I agreed to and gave my dog some fluids under the skin and a shot to stop the vomiting. He said he would call me as soon as he had the results of the blood tests. He called me the same day at about 6:30 pm to tell me that my dog had a mild case of pancreatitis and waited for me to come back to the hospital so I could pick up some medication and prescription food. My dog is doing great now. I was so thankful that they were able to see me so soon and spend so much time with me and quickly diagnose and treat the problem. I am lucky to have found Dr. Gauthier and know he will be our veterinarian for a long time.
