“I recently took my cat to Lake Forest Animal Clinic and had a great experience with Dr. Lana Bordcosh. Right from the start, she was super friendly and really took the time to hear us out. We never felt rushed, and she patiently listened to all our concerns. Dr. Bordcosh knew exactly what to do and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. Thanks to her, we left with the right meds and advice. Huge shoutout to Dr. Lana for being awesome!”
“This photo is our 18 going onto 19 year old lab, Buster Brown!!
In the last several years he has developed some health issues,
collapsed larynx, arthritis, and most recently Cushing’s Disease.
I knew it was extremely important to find excellent high quality supplements for him! Very fortunately, I found an outstanding family owned business in California, AskAerial! These people have guided which products I should choose, and even made suggestions for what type of food that would be good for him. Their customer service is excellent and has always been there for us!! I know in my heart that their employees really care for our pups! If it weren’t for their excellent supplements, our Buster Brown probably wouldn’t still be here with us! We are so grateful!!

“Such a great animal hospital. The staff and veterinarians are so loving and kind. They love their jobs and work with you every step of the way. Pharaoh and Kaya are happy to call this place their hospital.”
“Tesla had her first visit with Dr. Barry today. She enjoyed being loved on and making friends with Dr. Barry and her staff, who were all very friendly, pleasant and welcoming. We felt we were in great hands from the moment we stepped in until we left. Dr. Barry’s passion for animals was evident while she interacted with Tesla. We also appreciated her transparency and how thorough she was in addressing any concerns during the examination. It was also very sweet for Tesla to be offered a toy to take home at the end of her visit. :) We love our new vet!”
“Three months ago, I temporarily moved to South America and brought my two dogs with me. At that time, I was referred to a veterinary hospital in Orange to obtain the pet health certificates needed for their travel. Unfortunately, the fees were astronomical, and the experience was not the best.
Now, three months later, a friend is coming to visit me and will be bringing my cat along. I discovered that El Toro Veterinary Hospital issues USDA pet health certificates, and they were able to assist me with my request. It's worth noting that not all vets can provide this service by filing online and having the certificate emailed back literally within a couple days, many have to mail in the paperwork, which can take a long time.
I cannot say enough good things about my experience at El Toro. First of all, the prices were extremely reasonable. Carolina at the front desk was a godsend. Since I’m in South America, I had to arrange everything over the phone for my son to bring my cat in and handle all the paperwork. Carolina was patient and accommodating throughout the process.
Dr. Paul Francis was incredible as well. I genuinely cannot praise my experience enough. If you’re traveling out of the country and need a pet health certificate, this is honestly the best place in Orange County. They are fast, efficient, professional, friendly, and accommodating. I’d give them 10 stars if I could!”
“I have a bearded dragon I care deeply about and Dr Wesley did an amazing job, and his front desk team is nothing short of amazing! Not only are they knowledgeable but very kind and friendly! I highly recommend taking your loved pets to here! They will be cared for!”
“Professional with great level of care. Took my girl cats for spay & everything went swell. I was a little worried after the surgeries, but they assured me everything was normal. Kittens rested & bounced back after a few days. A great value money-wise as well. Thank you all !”
“I took my dog here for a spay, and like many others have said, the price is very reasonable. It was the best price among all the hospitals I checked, even compared to those in Atlanta. Dr. Lee did an amazing job; the suturing was very precise, and the wound was incredibly small. My dog was already acting like her normal self the day after the surgery, showing little discomfort.”
“The staff were friendly and professional. Dr. Chen was thorough in her examination of my cat and explained to me in a way I could understand despite many medical terms. Highly recommend this clinic.”
“The team at this Banfield location should be the example for all your other locations. The doctors carefully explain everything you need to know concerning your animals. The staff are equally extremely pleasant and competent. Thank you Banfield Lake Forest. Dale, Maggie and Bailey Berman.”
“I feel very comfortable bringing my pets here. I don't feel like they try and do unnecessary procedures or tests or try to upsell me. Vets are very personable and explain everything well.”
