We were at the vet for over an hour. The wait was extremely long, and the process felt very rushed when they discussed things with us. When we finally received the invoice, it seemed like the vet added all of these extra items just to make extra money. We went for a simple ear infection and they tried to bill us $350 for testing, steroids, and all of these items that felt were not needed. Finally, our dog is a nervous dog, he has been through a lot with transitioning to a new country, and what dog likes the vet? Well, he suggested we had a nervous dog and they needed to muzzle him, and stated that

After 10+ years at another Vet in Simi Valley, we decided to give American Veterinary a try with our new pup. Dr Cruz and team were amazing at every visit with the new pup. Appointments were on time, staff were friendly and efficient with awesome customer service. Dr. Cruz is extremely caring, knowledgeable, and down to earth. Not once did we feel like just a transaction. Which was one of a few reason why we decided to switch vets. Overall, just a great experience.

I wanted an appointment ASAP, the phone was immediately answered and they had no appointments available after I got off work, I was told they could call me if they got a cancellation for that day and we set up an appointment on Monday, just in case. I received a call just an hour later saying they got a cancellation and could see my guinea later that day. They brought us in very fast, they were efficient, obviously knew what they were doing and how to

We love Dr. Cruz and the staff, as they treat our dog like she's their own. Even when she's very not happy to see them.
