What reviewers say

73% Positive sentiment
based on 200 reviews

SoCal Animal Hospital is an independent veterinary practice in Riverside, California, specializing heavily in canine reproductive services, breeding care, and general wellness. The clinical team is widely regarded as compassionate, highly knowledgeable, and particularly skilled with bulldogs and surgical procedures such as C-sections and spays. Many visitors emphasize affordable pricing, accessible walk-in availability, and deeply empathetic end-of-life and emergency care. However, the facility frequently struggles with severe operational bottlenecks, resulting in exceptionally long wait times, challenges reaching staff by phone, disorganized scheduling, and occasional communication breakdowns. While many pet owners praise the affordable care and dedicated veterinary team, others note concerns regarding inconsistent wait management and variable administrative follow-through.
