When I got my puppy 5 months ago, I did a bit of research to find a good vet to follow her health. Dr. Corbo has been nothing short of excellent. I would highly recommend her.

Sadly, we had so say goodbye to our dear Loki. Dr. Ruth was able to fit us into her busy schedule on only a couple days notice. She made a difficult situation for us as comforting as possible. Thank you Dr. Ruth!

Wonderful vet who helped our 18+ year old cat pass peacefully when both of us could be there. We will forever appreciate Dr. Ruth making time to help us make Twiggy's exit calm and surrounded by love. God speed Twiggy, and thanks again Dr. Ruth.

Have to say just about the best Vet we have found. Upfront, knowledgeable and very reasonable with her charges. Our 4 yo Great Pyrenees developed a terrible shin condition since moving the Santa Maria area from NE end of the San Fernando Valley. She look at her a thought it could be caused by bacteria. Gave us a couple of precriptions that we got a the local Costco pharmacy at very reasonable prices. After a month of treatment skin condition cleared up. We had gone to a couple of other vets with no success to the tune of over $1200 for diagnosis and medicines.

Dr Ruth preformed end of life services for my dog at my house. It could not have gone any better. Her empathy and compassion made this difficult event go as smoothly as possible. I can't thank her enough for what she did. She also has preformed other services for us: from prescribing meds, to vaccine shots, to nail clippings. I've been to a few different vets in the SM area, but they all seemed more focused on up selling treatments and selling dog food and meds. But Dr. Ruth is solely focused on the animals. She is simply the best Vet in the SM area.

We couldn't be more thankful for Dr. Ruth. She gave us the gift of letting our amazing dog, Frankie, go peacefully. She came although she had a long day and we weren't scheduled. Her sweet and compassionate care was so helpful at a painful time. Thank you.

I tried to call Dr Ruth for the second time as we again needed a vet. The first time I was extremely ill and had no way of taking my cat anywhere and it was in the middle of Covid. I called and left at least three messages my final message was basically me crying and begging for help. I finally heard from her. She came out was a lovely person, diagnosed what was wrong and prescribed what my cat needed, great. So when my cat had another problem I reached out to Dr. Ruth again. I have called twice she has never bothered to return my call, it has been 2 weeks. I know the doctors are busy but if you’re that busy you’ve got to be making some pretty good money..... it would seem to me that you could afford someone to answer your messages in a timely fashion. It’s not only rude but completely unprofessional. Our pets and your clients deserve better!!

Dr. Ruth is amazing. Kind caring and compassionate, balanced and well informed. She was helpful and supportive every step of the way when my dog was dying. Thank you for your knowledge and compassion Dr.Ruth.

Well, I'm really sad, but feel the need to be the 2nd negative review for Dr. Ruth. When I first called to interview her to be my new vet, I should have just left it at that and went elsewhere. You see, when I called, I had to leave a message and after doing so, I never received a call back that whole day. Not a word. So I decided to give her the benefit of the doubt and try calling again the next day. This time she answered, which was a bit of a surprise since it was Sunday. She's apparently closed on Sundays. I was actually revitalized about her and decided do make an appointment for my 2 cats to both be spayed and get all their needed shots. Neither cat nor kitten (mother and daughter) has had any shots. Although she seemed quite unorganized and distracted on the phone (a 2nd red flag), I decided to give her a chance to prove to me that she is everything all the positive, 5-star reviews lay claim to. I made the appointment for today, March 3, 2021 at 12:noon. It is now 12:45pm and she is not only a no show, didn't bother to call ahead to verify the appointment, and didn't call to say she would be late, couldn't make it because of an emergency or even make any attempt to reschedule, her voice mailbox is full and so I can't even leave a message if I wanted to!! This also means, obviously, that I wouldn't be able to get a hold of her if I had an emergency and she WAS my vet!! It is now almost 1:pm and still nothing. Needless to say this will NOT be my new vet! I had high hopes this would work out like al the 5-stars led me to believe it would, but it doesn't look like it's going to. And just to put the icing on the cake, her pricing is extremely high compared to everyone else. I would have written a check for nearly $500 today had she showed up. While I understand a mobile vet is going to be more expensive, I don't think it should be twice it three times the going rate. Maybe this was a blessing in disguise. I will gladly change it to a more positive review if it turns out to be justified to do so, but I'm extremely skeptical and doubt it will be.

Dr Ruth is the most sweet and amazing person. She was so helpful and gave my husband and me insight on our beautiful cat who's health was on the fast decline. Dr Ruth was present as we said our goodbyes to our sweet Faith. She asked us questions about her and was genuine in being a part of our send off. We were not rushed in any way in the time we spent with her in our home. During such a painful time, this was the most humane way to give our beloved pet a pain free transition to heaven. We love Dr Ruth so much for helping us with such a sensitive situation. Even after I picked up our cat's remains (which were beautifully and carefully packaged) she also said she investigated our cat's health issue as it seemed rare and she confirmed we did all we could to see if we could have had a few more years with her. Dr Ruth brought us so much peace with her investigative initiative. We are forever grateful to her.

Dr. Corbo came to our home yesterday to help our 16 year old cat Willow pass over. She is so kind and understanding of what the cat and owners are going through and makes what is the hardest decision ever, a little bit easier. We were able to have our family, both two legged and four legged, with Willow when she passed which is something that was very important to us. She passed peacefully in my husbands arms. This is the first time we have used a mobile vet and I would highly recommend Dr. Corbo.

Dr. Ruth is a compassionate vet who listens to my concerns and offers her personal opinions on recommended diagnostics and treatment plans when asked. Her generosity in spirit and in practice is remarkable.

Ruth is so sweet and understanding of your pets needs. She came to our home to see our cat who doesn't like going to the vet. He loved her! We will be taking our 2 dogs to see her from now on.
