We were referred by a friend to Dr. La Bounty. When we called his office number it was forwarded to Rose City. We were informed that Dr. La Bounty had retired and that they were now seeing his patients and or taking his calls. We were calling to set-up an appointment to have our pit-bull's ears clipped who was 5 months old in April. We were told by the Rose City receptionist that their schedule was full and she did not yet have the schedule for May and not to worry, pit-bulls could have their ears clipped within the first year. She then took our information and told us she would call us in May and let us know what the schedule was so that we could make our appointment. May came and went and we did not hear back, but we were not concerned because the receptionist said we could do it within the first year. We called again in June, now our pit is 7 months old, and scheduled an appointment for July and paid a $100 deposit. At our appointment on July 3rd we were informed by the vet that our dog was not a good candidate because she was more than 7 months old and that her soft cartilage had already started to form. So, our pit did not get her ears clipped and we were only returned $50 out of our $100 deposit. Our experience with this office obviously was not a good one. Unfortunately, we can't turn back time so make sure you do your research and double check the information given if it is anyone other than the vet!
We have been with Dr. Dana Bleifer since she opened Rose City Vets and would not take our 15-year-old Nikki anywhere else. Dr. Bleifer is awesome. She always takes time to explain things fully, does not over medicate, does not order excessive tests. It is sometimes a little tricky to schedule with Dr. Bleifer because she is so busy. With one exception (who is no longer there), the other vets have been great to deal with. Regardless of who it is, I've always had the feeling that they care about Nikki. She's not just another dog to see. The front office staff and techs are friendly. The office is bright and clean. It is a 40 minute drive to Rose City Vets, but well worth it.
I highly recommend Rose City Veterinary Hospital. Their service is excellent and everyone who works there LOVES animals. They are kind and caring and go the extra mile to make sure they take care of your pet to the best of their ability. Last year when my dog was very ill, they opened on a Sunday morning just for us so they could monitor him and remove his catheter. When I was in their office this week. There were 3 other people in the waiting room. One drove from Malibu, one drove from Northridge and another from El Segundo. This is an example of how others view this hospital as well. They are willing to drive hours from their home to see the specialists at Rose City.
My husband and I have been taking our cats to Rose City Veterinary Hospital for seven-years. The Doctors and staff are excellent. My cats are always taken care of in a professional manner. Whenever I call the Rose City Vets office my call is always answered politely by a caring employee. I would recommend this facility to all pet lovers.
I have been going to Rose City for many years. The doctors are wonderful and care about my pets. The techs and staff are just fabulous and courteous and I am always greeted with a smile. My big boy, Max, went to hydrotherapy there for several years and he looked forward to going there and loved his time in the tank. He passed away there (not in the tank) at 10 1/2. I noticed that he was having trouble breathing and drove him there, they met me in the parking lot and took him right away. He died shortly thereafter and I have never seen such compassion from everyone there. They all knew our Max (as well as our other dogs and kitties) and I wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend them!
