Camarosa Veterinary Clinic

My pets have been going to Dr. Edwards for over ten years, and I cannot be more pleased with the care they receive. Dr. Edwards is a great vet, and always takes the time to explain my pet's health to me so that I can make an informed decision on matters of medicine and care. He also saved the life of my dog, who was suffering through pancreatitis, by recommending that the care be handled by VMSG.\r \r To Brian - If your dog is a cancer patient, she should have been going to VMSG as they are far more equipped to handle the care. Vets are like GPs, while VMSG are more along the lines of an oncologist, or specialists equipped to handle cases. When VMSG did want us to pick up our dog's meds locally, Camarosa Vet took very careful steps to insure that this was agreeable to the VMSG and the pharmacist. more

My family has been going to this vet since 1978. I then got my own dog in 2001 and have been taking my dog as well. This vet has always been outstanding! Dr. Russell takes his time with the pets and always explains your options (actually tries to get you to spend the least amount, which he feels is still appropriate treatment). I've never had a problem getting an appointment. I only took my dog the the emergency vet once as this vet was closed (Sunday---typical). I would still use this vet except for the fact that I now live 2 hours from his practice. more

I wouldn't take my pet here if it was the last vet on earth! The Vet himself is o.k., but the front office staff is rude and uncaring.They were dishonest(the doctor told me one thing and they told me another ). The doctor didn't follow through with what he told us he would do to help our dog, then had his front office staff cover for him. In the end, as our dog was suffering with incredible pain from a broken leg due to bone cancer, we were refused a common pain medication for dogs called Tramadol that this same "doctor" Edwards had recommended for her earlier the same day. We were taking her to the E.R vet because Edwards couldn't see her the day things got bad for our girl (her leg had broken due to cancer). The E.R office gave us a ton of Tramadol right away and they barely charged us anything for it. Celestine (front office girl) seemed to take great pleasure in calling us to say that the "doctor" would not give her this simple pain reliever. We had taken her there since she more

Do not worry about your pet at this hospital. The staff are AMAZING! They love animals, and they love people too. My doctor is very experienced, and my cat suffered no ill effects from his anesthesia when we had his teeth cleaned (cats can get really groggy and disoriented). The prices are about average (not cheap, not expensive). I drive 30 minutes to use this hospital, and believe me, it's worth it. PROS: Awesome vets, even more awesome, helpful staff, experienced!
