Veterinarians in Marina del Rey, CA

“We are so grateful for the excellent care we've received from Dr. Blair and the team at T.H.E. Cat Hospital in MDR, it's a whole new experience coming here. They saved our boy, Chewbacca, an adult Maine Coon who was very sick with an intestinal disease for many months. And now are giving great care to an adult Maine Coon mix, a shelter rescue we recently adopted. Their knowledge and capability, combined with the care and compassion, are unbeatable.”

“The staff at Vetco is incredibly helpful, and the vet is superb very knowledgeable and genuinely caring with the animals. I really appreciate the level of care and professionalism.

The only downside is that they’re only open on Sundays. Since it’s located right next to Costco, parking can be a real challenge. Getting in and out can be quite stressful due to the heavy traffic in the area.”

“Dr. Dubin is wonderfully caring and thorough. She’s always responsive to emails and takes the time to explain things in a way that even an anxious pet parent can feel reassured and supported!”

“We had such a great experience here. The entire staff was incredibly kind, patient, and welcoming from the moment we walked in. My dog is very anxious, and they went out of their way to make him feel comfortable—taking their time, speaking gently, and never rushing us.

You can truly tell they care about the animals. It made such a difference to feel heard and supported, especially with a nervous pup. We left feeling relieved and grateful. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a compassionate, friendly vet”

“I cannot say enough thank you to Dr. Lim and Animal Wellness Center for the incredible care they provided for our very senior dog, Mook. He was suddenly diagnosed with severe kidney disease, and our previous vet recommended either euthanasia or trying hospitalization at an emergency hospital. However, due to his heart murmur, there was a concern that his heart wouldn’t hold up under the stress of IV fluids. We were looking for a private clinic rather than a big corporate vet, so we decided to visit Animal Wellness Center, which also offers acupuncture.

Dr. Lim suggested a unique approach of daytime-only hospitalization during office hours. While we were worried about Mook’s heart, we trusted Dr. Lim, who took the time to explain everything thoroughly.

Thanks to their incredible care, Mook has recovered well, and now, five months later, he’s still running around happily. We know our time with him may be limited, but we’re so grateful for the extra time we’ve had with him—time that we wouldn’t have had if we had gone the other route. We are truly thankful for the compassionate care we received here.”
