My guy and I came to Mammoth (my first time) and my 2-yo husky had diarrhea that got worse into the night and next day. We live at near sea level and I thought maybe it was altitude sickness since it didnt kick in until we arrived. She was going downhill so fast, I cleaned up so many messes, I was terrified it was life-threatening. Were over 300 miles from her vet so I looked up local vets and Alpen popped up just over a mile away. After calling ahead, their lovely receptionist said theyd squeeze my girl in. Dr. Teslaa and his tech were wonderful, effortlessly thorough and efficient and

Glad he came after hours to help my fur baby. Very friendly and great with all my fur babies. He gave us a great piece of mind to know she will be alright.

We had to take our cat in to say goodbye in an emergent situation. The Vet was rough, quite rude to us, jammed our cat with a sedative because she was anxious and wouldnt stay still, without warning us first. He barely said anything to us, was not kind to us or our suffering cat. It was a very traumatizing experience for us in a moment that was already very painful.

Dr.Teslaa is the most competent and wise vet I have ever had the pleasure of having my pets be treated by. He always puts your animals welfare before his pocketbook and your feelings. Honorable. I live in the bay area and I still take my dogs to him. He makes the vets HERE look incompetent, shady, and lazy.
