What reviewers say

45% Mixed sentiment
based on 10 reviews

North Coast Veterinary Hospital provides equine and livestock care in the Arcata, California area. The practice offers large animal veterinary services, including emergency response, hoof care with an on-site ferrier, and end-of-life care. While long-term community members historically valued the personalized service and experienced veterinary team, recent clients express growing concerns regarding post-acquisition corporate changes, unexpected fees, and significantly higher billing totals compared to initial quotes.
