My family has been using Humphrey Giacoppuzzi's for 3 generations. They've provided excellent care for our Camarillo White Horses & others. Dr. Humphrey provided excellent care for our cattle back in his day.All of the staff has always been extremely compassionate & knowledgeable.

I've never used the services, yet when my horse had STRANGLES, the receptionist told me I was on a no service list. A few months earlier I had spent 60k in three monthstrying to keep my new ottb 4year old alive, I had two insurance policies and the vets didn't write the invoices so they would be coveted, instead I was left with a horrendous bill,a dead horse and 32k cash gone in 3 months. I'm in healthcare, and the day I choose to NOT help a person based on an unresolved insurance claim who just lost almost 100k in less than 3 months, when the horse has strangles...is the day I get out of the business. Sad reality these people put a non customer on a no service list and didn't help or respond to a horse with strangles!!

All large animal vets are not the same. This is the best vet in Ventura county.

Soooo grateful for this hospital in our area. ?? My mare was dealing with some pre-existing health issues and came in for a few days after a severe spider bite. Knowing her history they were amazing being open minded and also searching for alternative therapies. I recently had a clients horse come in for colic and a found loop around the small intestine. Our vet called it in and they were on it. A whole team came in and they worked amazingly quick. I was very impressed with there process and professionalism.

It's never easy to make the decision to let go of a beloved animal friend. We were out of options with our beautiful mare Autumn - the field vet coming to our house was out of diagnostic options. A friend recommended we trailer her to Giacopuzzi's facility in Somis to get an X-ray. Every interaction with the staff - the wonderful front desk staff, the helpful technicians, and Dr. Haig herself - helped us understand exactly what was going on with our dear girl, and what our best options were. She had a large stone in a very bad spot, and given the location of the stone, her age, and her temperament, we decided the best course was to put her down. The staff handled every moment with complete kindness and transparency - that's really what we needed in order to make such a big decision. They helped us every step of the way, gave us as much time as we needed to say goodbye, gave her a very yummy last meal, and let us stay with her after she passed to help her spirit along. Really top-notch care for both animal and humans. And through all of our tears and inability to even speak, I hope they know how much each of them was appreciated on that day. We just couldn't have made the decision - or had peace with it - without them. Thank you so, so much.

I don't often leave reviews, but really felt one was in order here. Dr. Zoe Davidson was out for my beloved retired TB about a month ago for a pretty bad colic, and she was smart, capable and nice. Then unfortunately she came out to euthanize my sweet boy a couple days ago, after 21 years with my boy (he was 34), this was one of the hardest days of my life, but Dr. Zoe was so kind, compassionate and made it go smoothly. If I ever get another horse, I'd love to have her as my vet.

DO NOT GO HERE FOR BREEDING! If you are interested in this equine hospital for breeding STAY AWAY!!! Go to West Coast Equine hospital instead. We only used Giacopuzzi because West Coast doesn't do Embryo transfer. This was the worst decision we could ever make!!! The front office staff is RUDE and only cares about money! We brought our own recipient mares with a donor mare and they charged us for things they didn't do. They said they lavaged one of the recipient mares with an antibiotic, when I questioned them they said there wasn't an infection so they removed that charge. We had 2 failed embryo transfer attempts with them, but kept one of our recip mares there to carry her own. They didn't return calls or call us back for over 2 weeks until we finally just picked up our mare. They then proceeded to say the doctor was sick and the tech was out so that is why no one called us but they sure as hell charged us. They charged us without authorization today. Needless to say...DO NOT GO HERE FOR BREEDING unless you want to be charged for things they didn't do and end up broke!

Dr. Richard is my go to vet doctor, he’s helped my other horses with awful colic’s and now confirmed 2 pregnancy’s ! I really enjoy his presence and his care for horses , also I recently lost my heart horse on august 11,2022 and unfortunately Richard was not available, but I got sent Dr. Zoey and I adore her ! She treated my horse great and at first I thought my horse was going thru a colic but turns out my horse was just old and her time was coming to an end and dr. Zoey really made me realize that . She was understanding and friendly and very supportive . I will always appreciate her and everything she did ! Thankyou so much guys ! THE BEST ✨

Everyone here is absolutely wonderful. Trailered my horse in for an emergency and Dr. Fallon saw her and she was wonderful!! I didn't think my horse was going to have a good outcome given her condition and 4 days later my horse is doing so well. I'm so thankful for her and her team.

We sent a client's horse for surgery here and had a great experience. Multiple parties involved and very logistically challenging scenario - I am beyond impressed with the office staff and surgeon, who were all exceptional in terms of communicating with me for scheduling, billing, and making sure the horse had a comfortable, seamless experience.Procedure was priced well and we received an honest itemized estimate ahead of time. Excellent work by the surgeon, who took the time to call after the procedure with updates!Five stars. Happy to know there is such an exceptional surgery center so close to our Thousand Oaks training facility. Thank you HG&A for making my job as easy as possible, and for doing such exceptional work on my clients' horses. We look forward to working with you again.

This is such an amazing Equine hospital; they saved our pony we had rescued that turned out to have laminitis and insulin resistant! I honestly didn't know if she'd make it but she made a great recovery and is still too this day living a very happy healthy life.Today my paint mare was in distress and we were able to take her here for help. Impaction and severe dehydration. They were on top of it and called me within the hour of her arriving. So relieved she's going to be OK and in such great hands. She's my heart horse. ❤️

Always take into account competitive companies/people post negative reviews intentionally. Don't believe everything you read. Do more research and go with your gut.
