I highly recommend ABC vet on Normal street. ALL of the staff are caring and wonderful. I have seen Dr. Ohm on 2 occasions now and I am extremely satisfied with his care. He is knowledgeable, caring, gentle and truly an animal lover. This is more than a career for him. You can tell he loves his job and goes above and beyond. Your animals are in great hands when you allow ABC vet to care for them.

Jeff is the absolute best vet in all of San Diego, and beyond. He was wonderful with my cat Cleo, who was truly not feeling well when they were able to squeeze me in. Jeff had a great bedside manner with humor easing the tension and all the staff was wonderful. I can’t rave enough - our pets are our babies and they treated her as if she was their own. Thank you!

I’m a physician. One particular receptionist has atrocious bed side manner. Will avoid simply due to that. Medical care seemed adequate.

Both of my cats were cared for by ABC. My last cat was a rescue that came from the shelter with an undiagnosed health problem that remained pretty much a mystery until her death, but greatly resembled Crohns disease in humans. I know this because my youngest son has Crohns disease. She was 11 when she was adopted, and only lived with us 5 years, but she was well cared for and ABC gave great attention to her medical needs. ABC was willing to try a couple of different treatments that, in the end, gave her a little extra time; but I think her advanced age when her illness was discovered contributed to her inability to respond to treatment as she might have had she been younger.ABC cares a great deal about the pets entrusted to their care. I took my last cat to another vet briefly because thats who the humane society referred me to when I called them a week into my cats adoption after she got horribly sick. I was not impressed with the level of care they extended to her and neither was my cat.I dont know if I will get another pet in the near future. However, I can say with great certainty that if I remain in San Diego, and if I get another pet, I will be taking him or her to ABC. I was very comfortable there, and it would seem that my cats were more at ease there than anywhere else. I highly recommend ABC.

The people at ABC Uptown have taken care of all 5 of my dogs, spanning over 20 years. Ive never been disappointed with their treatment plans, pricing, or customer service. The staff genuinely care about the animals in their care and they work hard to provide the best service possible. They give guidance during complex situations without trying to oversell treatments or medications and the pricing is reasonable and fair. As long as I have dogs Ill be going to this clinic.

You can really tell all staff here care deeply about the animals. They are always so friendly and I feel safe leaving my pup in their care.As I’m on a tight budget I appreciate that they are honest about what is really needed and what can wait on the care plan so I can tailor how much I can spend on necessary treatment.My dog has several health problems and have been to both the pacific beach and uptown locations and they have both been so helpful and great experiences every time.Could not recommend them enough!

After having gone to the same vet in my small hometown in North Carolina for nearly a decade, I was instantly overwhelmed by the number of vets to choose from in San Diego. The first vet I went to after I moved here was located in Mission Bay and was an absolute nightmare. He was cold and unfeeling and had no idea how to explain an animals condition in laymans terms. I was so frustrated. When we moved to Normal Heights, I decided to look for a vet closer to our new home. The first place I found was ABC Vet. From the first visit, we felt so welcomed. It always seems like every staff member loves your animal just as much as you do. We have now been going there for 3 years and have NEVER had a bad experience. I always recommend ABC Vet to anyone who asks for a veterinarian. Thank you all for all you do!

I have had the best experience & trust that my dog is getting the best care. Office staff is friendly & genuinely care about your pet & meeting their needs. Vet’s are caring & are very knowledgeable. I have peace of mind & they always keep you informed. Feels like extended family.

Really like the staff here. They’re amazing and responsive. My dog absolutely loves the girls here. Every experience is quick and a breeze. My dogs never nervous to leave me with a team member for all her shots so far.Really appreciate this team!

ABC Vet saved my cats life when he had an ear infection and got severely dehydrated. The staff is incredibly caring and careful, and they are reasonably priced. They provided a list of all the diagnostics and treatments they were recommending, in order of importance, with reasonable explanation & price breakdown. The customer chooses which tests and treatments they feel are appropriate for their budget.A+ all around. Highly recommend.

Super happy with these guys. Been looking after my doodles for 4 years. Very professional.

Dr. Loken and the staff at ABC Uptown are fantastic. Due to covid I didn’t get to meet Dr. Loken face-to-face but I could tell just from our phone contact how compassionate she was. I had to change vets for geographic reasons but her staff continues to support me and my cat with claims and information. They are all professionals and really care about their patients, both two-legged and four-legged. Highly recommend.

Ive taken all my cats to ABC Veterinary Services over the years and always received excellent, compassionate care for my pets. Prices are fair and the service has always been terrific. Highly recommend.

I have been bringing my 2 dogs and 3 cats here over the course of 8 years. Dr. Christensen and Dr. Z are very friendly, caring and knowledgeable. And the front desk staff is amazing and friendly, we love Charla and Peggy. Even when it was time to put my older dog down Dr. Z and Charla were very accommodating to my dog and my Husband and I at this heartbreaking time. We continue to come here and always receive the best of care!

Ive been going to ABC since moving to Bay Park 7 years ago. Moved to North Park 3 years ago and still continue to make that drive to Hefes (my girl) favorite Vet, Nurses, and Office Personnel. Everyone is great. They all know my dog. Some even know my name :) Fair Honest and Reliable. I never Yelp or fill out surveys but these guys are worth it.

Thank you very much Johanna for your excellent attention and kindness. Unfortunately the prices are exorbitant, I am not happy with the vet who treated my dog. Thank you Johanna for your patience and explaining everything to us. ABC should be proud to have such a valuable person as Johanna.

My family and I have been coming to ABC for years and we are so happy with them. We’ve seen some of the best veterinarians here. They’re always so patient with us (the humans) and our fur babies and they’re always so informative. The staff has always been friendly and personable. They make it a point to know our names and the names of our pets. This veterinary office has seen our family through many fur babies, tears of sadness when it was time for our babes to cross rainbow bridge and also in times of triumph when we’ve all worked tirelessly to get one of our babies well again. I am so thankful for this place. We’ve gotten to know the owner, Patty and her family and she holds such a high standard, I don’t know that there is any other place that I would ever trust my dogs with. Thank you, ABC for allowing us to be your clients and making us feel like family every time we call or walk through your door!

Very friendly and professional staff. I appreciate thar they didnt try to sell me unnecessary tests and shots for my cat. Recommend.

We moved to Pacific Beach 5 years ago and looking for a good Veterinarian. We read reviews after reviews and found ABC Vet to be our best choice for our two little dogs (dachshund and a min-pin). We have a new shelter dog Jack Russell and loves the staff. The staff and doctor are so kind and they always remember our dog’s name and us. Love them.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽Best Vet.

I called different vets for my puppy to be neutered, no one could do it, but ABC vets, didn’t denied me services, and I needed that service. They were pleasant, professional and my puppy is doing excellent. Thank you very much, ABC vets and to all your staff that made this possible for me. I will recommend you to anyone that needs a vet!Lina Ghitman

Genuinely caring veterinarians. All the staff is great, I am moving 2.5 hours away and I plan on driving 2.5 back to San Diego too the University Heights location to continue our vet appointments.

Pacific Beach ABC Vets are full of the most wonderful Doctors & Vet Techs. You can never get such personal services at the big franchise vet facilities.. While they may not be able to handle the once in a lifetime emergencies, they are the first to refer you when it is necessary. Even when I moved out of the area, I still made it a priority, to bring my two senior feline buddies. to the PB ABC Vet care.Try Em, youll never go anywhere else!!

I always have a great experience bringing my dogs to this vet. The team here is compassionate and bright and they take great care of my precious pups. :) Highly recommended!

Tried to coordinate via email due to some recent hearing impairment. Whoever was on the other end was very dismissive and refused to help me in any way, they ONLY wanted to talk on the phone. Pretty sure theres gotta be some ADA regulations about that, heaven forbid I was fully deaf or something. Ill never know how they are with animals but theyre not too great with people.

LOVE ABC VET in Pacific Beach!!!! They are have Terrific Doctors. They have Great Service. They have Fair pricing and My Animals Love them. We are very Happy to have discovered this Wonderful Hidden Gem We are just thrilled. Thanks ABC. See You all Soon!!!❤️ Stefani and the Family!!!! Xoxo

They are wonderful. Able to diagnose what was wrong with my Charley. A veterinarian specialist for skin problems totally missed it. Charley is doing great now.

Dr Loken and Staff: Joanna, Megan took very good care of my German Shepherd when she was very sick. They attended her like she was their own. I have since taken my two other pups to be in their care. I would highly recommend her to everyone.

This is the only vet that wasn’t scared of my pit bull. He’s a sweet and gentle dog but was a big dog. They showed him nothing but love and always remembered his name. Couldn’t be more pleased with the level of care and service.

I’ve been using ABC vet for the last 7 years but today my time and my animals comfort was disrespected and I won’t be returning. We arrived for our 9am appointment on time (slightly early) after driving 20 minutes with 2 very unhappy animals to be told they found out the vet was sick the night prior and wouldn’t be coming in. A phone call the other prior would have appreciated. I’m frustrated that there is no alternate vet that was designated to cover. In the event of an emergency having the facility open on Saturday without a vet present is risky and hopefully they find a way to improve their practices in such situations to ensure the safety and comfort for animals and owners.

I have a difficult cat that responds violently to visits to the vet. The staff at ABC is always very professional and deal with her without a complaint.

I take my cat to the PB ABC vet clinic and they are the nicest people and very competent. I love Charla, the vet assistant, who cheerfully books appointments, checks you in and out, does the preliminary and necessary temperature check and weight, and is always so pleasant and friendly and remembers me and my cat. My latest visit was with Dr. Christianson and she is a great vet. She examined my cat after I explained her symptoms, and then discussed the possible cause and suggested numerous therapies that could be administered. She is great because she doesnt force tests or procedures that could be expensive but goes with the least invasive/costly but most obvious treatment first. Also, even though they were short-staffed, I was in and out of there pretty quickly with antibiotics in hand. Love ABC Vet Pacific Beach!

Have always taken great care of our cat.

I’ve even going to ABC Veterinarians for over 20 years. We’re on our second Jack Russell pet with them. Our first Jack Russell pet was put down, this past October 2018. He was 18 years old.Our second pet (also, a Jack Russell) is under 2 years old and he is a rescue pup. I really love going to ABC for all my pets needs. They are highly trained and very compassionate with my pets. I highly recommend them!!!?

Dr. Weber and his staff were amazing! My 6 month old puppy had her spay procedure here and they gave her the best care anyone could ask for. They took her out to pee after she was done, and they gave me a call the next morning to follow up on her. I highly recommend going here for all your pet needs.

They care about the animals that come to their clinic. You cant find a better vet clinic in town

ABC Veterinary Hospital has been very responsive to my needs for my dog Trouble. Whether it has been refilling prescriptions to his annual check ups, I have always been able to get an appointment when needed.

Great people and great service. Been going there for years and everyone knows me and my pets. They really helped me when my dachshund had a herniated disk. They offered great advise and a referral and she is doing great now. Love everyone there. Thank you

I have taken my two cats here for their annuals and also a few years back for a follow up after a fire at my apt complex. They (the staff) are very friendly and nice and offer true recommendations for care which is in the best interest of the animal... not the profit of the vet.I have recently started taking them somewhere else, not because of this vet but because I have trouble traveling with them (the cats) in the car during the trip.I would recommend ABC to anyone who needs quality care at a reasonable price.

Excellent Vetenary Clinic. Staff and doctors are pleasant and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend ABC for your pets.

Great vet office. The staff (especially Charla) are all wonderful and only want the best for your pets. Sometimes it is a bit expensive, but I think it is the nature of veterinary offices and services.

The staff was so sweet and patient with my dog. She can be very shy in new enviornments and they gave her treats and love until she was comfortable. I was also very happy with their offering of monthly flea pill treatments instead of very costly 6 month supplies. That was very helpful for me financially.

We have been taking our dog to ABC Veterinary hospital since she was 8 weeks and she’s now almost 5 yrs old. All the staff there is extremely attentive,professional and so kind ! They have done a few procedures on our Pomeranian and they are always extremely transparent and efficient . I can’t say enough positive things about them, they are the best!!! Thank you so much for keeping our little girl healthy :)

Excellent service. Quick, direct yet supportive and responsiveand kind!!!!!!!!!!! Gentle and caring with your family members(pets). Good place to go

What I like most is that the staff and doctors seem genuinely happy to see our dog when we come in to the clinic, which really makes a difference when he has been ill or just needs a check up.

Listen, I have a 115 lb wolf dog named Cyprus. He’s a great dog but he’s a little rough around the edges being mixed with some wolf and all. ABC has made sure he is healthy, safe, and have worked with us on every inconvenience that comes with treating a wolfdog that is a bit wary of strangers. I have not i g but amazing things to say about ABC. Nicest staff that always goes above and beyond for us.

I recently took my dog with me to Europe and called ABC Vet Clinic as I didn’t have any idea what was required for this to happen. The staff and Vets were extremely knowledgeable about the requirements and guided me through the process which was somewhat complicated. It turned out to be a wonderful and seamless trip and I am so appreciate the patience and professionalism of everyone at ABC!

Okay staff, but super expensive. Very persistent on getting you to come back again.I think at times they can be pretty passive aggressive. They kept saying that my cats nails were too long, so I said Ill do it when I get home. ($ 15 for nail trimming). So throughout my visit they kept asking and they guy asked me in the lobby again. Which I said no to again. When I had to pay, the assistant said they did it anyway but clearly was annoyed by it. I was discussing with another client in the lobby about her visit and she stated that shes paid about 1,000 just for a full check up and had to pay $160 for flea medication.Just for the examination alone its $39 plus bio-hazard fee $4So without them resolving anything your looking at $43 to start.They can be very pleasant and they do seem to care but maybe theres other places to look at?

My background is in dog rescue and as a rescuer you develop a knack for sensing kindred souls. They’re true animal lovers in this office.Awesome awesome awesome. My 14 year old healthy pitbull Duke had a golf ball sized lump removed from his chest. First of all, when the staff all fall in love with his big head, I love it. He tore open his sutures and they took me in right away and redid them within minutes. Also I really like how detailed the talks were about the procedure before and after. They’re my new vets in San Diego!UPDATE: My pup has a tumor on his paw that’s inoperable. The care and attention they’ve given him (and me) has been immeasurable. They’ve gone out of their way for last second appointments. They’ve shown us compassion. And every time we are about to leave Duke gets so much attention that he won’t budge lol

They go above & beyond to help, even during COVID. Thank you for taking care of my fur babies.

I have had several years experience with ABC; all excellent. The receptionists are personable and capable. The doctors are personable, capable, and have your interest and your animals welfare as top priority.

Its great to know that this place is so close to home. Very gentle and friendly staff!!! They do not give you the run-a-round about your pets health. I will bring my pets here from now on even if I do or will work at another veterinary hospital. The staff here cares and detail oriented!!! Love them. And to the staff- thank you all for taking care of Hennessy!!!

I have been taking my dogs here for over 20 years. The staff is great and the Vets are very caring and knowledgeable! Best vet in PB!! I highly recommend them!

Never will I take any animal here. Horrible staff. Difficulty communicating. Unfortunately I didn’t figure out the staff’s incompetence before my little one died.

We have trusted our many (many!) pets over the years to the great folks at ABC Veterinary Hospital. Thank you for always been professional, courteous and compassionate.

Awesome place reasonable . And you can tell they really care about your baby . Total life savers

Thank you for caring for my elderly fathers dog Daisy. She was very old with a heart condition and needed her leg amputated we were hesitant of going through with the surgery but the staff and the Doctor were very comforting to our concern. The surgery went great. She was such a happy 3 legged dog afterwards nothing could stop her. It was nice to see her happy again. Thank You ABC Vet for doing such a great job with Daisy. My father and Daisy are both elderly and are so happy together. Thank you for allowing my father to have his best friend for a few more years.

Nice to have walk-in times. The downside is you may have to wait a long time if busy. Excellent care of my dog during recent surgery, follow-up, and other care.

We brought our new rescued dog here for a check up. The staff was very nice to Gracie. I found them very helpful in giving me advice to correct a bad behavior and also to get her to eat. Because Gracie is a picky eater, they also introduced us to a treat she liked. They also gave us a free halter that was donated to their clinic. I would recommend them highly. The Vet was kind and knew how to handled Gracie. The most important reason we liked them, Gracie liked them.

Staff & Dr Loken were wonderful. My sick dog was seen quickly, her paperwork already in house had been reviewed. I was given treatment options & my dog was card for by kind and gentle people. The cost was less than my vet in Texas. I would come here as my regular vet if I lived here!

Love this place! It is waking distance from our house which is a huge plus, and all of the staff here is so friendly. The doctor preformed a routine annual exam on our 9 month old kitten and she was so gentle and kind with our cat. Even gave him a treat afterwards and played with him after the exam!

Super loving with my dog when he got neutered.

ABC is the best in SD. Dr. Kosmo is simply awesome. She saved my 10 year old GSD from a dire injury and we now have a pain management plan for him that is working well. Plus, the staff and techs are kind and helpful, and they work with my insurance. Thanks ABC and we will see you soon!

Each time I have been here the staff have been outstanding to work with . The Vets are knowledgeable and spend the time to explain what going on with my pup . I highly recommend them .

I took my dog to my regular veterinarian and they wanted to charge me $300 to spay my dog. I had heard that ABC hospitals offer low cost spay and neuter plans as a public service so I took her there. My dog did great following the surgery and they only charged me $100 including pain medications. Both my dog and I were treated like gold through the whole experience. I could not recommend this hospital more highly.

All the doctors and staff are caring and knowledgeable they love my dogs. Woulddefinitely recommen this place to my friends.

Ive been on disability income and been saving to move to Big Island, lots of requirements and will pay every penny if I have to but the last thing I need is hearing staff and Dr. Making comments I did not care for. Yeah, I live in my truck ( a nice one,and very clean). Yea, I dont have a shower to bath myself or my 🐕 daily. Yeah, Im aware of the cost of living in Hawaii ( Ive been there about ten times).I was about to just walk out when they did not want to give my dog the second rabbies shot Hawaii DOA requires before the FAVN. When the Dr. ( Some lady) examined the dog she walked out and said something about that... Guy... What a mess thats going to be. And before the Dr came in they almost demanded an address for Hawaii to put on the final papers. I called Hawaii DOA and they said to simply put the address for where the DOA for Hawaii and if the Vet had a problem with that to have em give a call to confirm!Its already stressful ☹️ doing all this and months of saving $$$ to cover shipping my vehicle, FAVN test, and other papers that I really felt disscouragged by this vet, as if I dont suffer enough from depression and other things. I expected more encouragement and motivation instead of no, not this,no.. not that.I will 😊 give credit to the lady at front desk who ran out to give me some info on requirements for Hawaii, did not expect that. I REALLY REALLY wanted my dogs 😭 2nd rabbies test done. I was treated with distrust. My dog is my emotional support dog ( with written doctors proof) and would NEVER jeopardize his health or lie about his past exams or shots given. But I didNOT appreciate the BS comment/s made by the doctor regarding my docs and whatever else she meant was a mess. And the reason Ive not given my dog Max a bath is because I simply dont have hot water! Ever showered at the park? The water is like ice! And if anybody is reading this and wishes to help with costs you can reach me at [email protected]. Mario.

ALL staff was great + informative.My puppy was relaxed also.My only difficulty is trying to get into bldg. I use a rollator for my balance and fortunately my dog is tiny enuf to fit into seat when I raise cover. BUT, sadly there is NO ADARAMP so it was painful to maneuver holding a heavy door that will auto close on you + at same time get up the 1 stair w dog + rollator. What do others do?? I guess people in wheelchairs + scooters have to go see another vet. Is there not a way a ramp can be made for us disabled clients?? I like all staff here + do not want to have to find another.WHY NOT A RAMP????????

Wonderful, kind, patient staff. They are as patient with us as they are with our pup.

We have been taking our dogs here for a few years years now and have always received excellent service and care from Dr. Weber and his staff. We had one dog who was a terror and she was always treated with gentleness. She was bitten by a rattlesnake a few years back and she never recovered from that. After a year or two she started losing functions of her hind legs and was unable to stand well. Dr Weber gave us some choices but none that would cure her and we couldnt bear to watch her suffer any longer so we decided to put her down. I have never seen such a kind and loving group of staff as well as Dr. Weber who really comforted me at this very sad time. They followed up with phone calls and even took the time to send me a beautiful card with messages from everyone. My experience was one I will never forget...I love this place.

I have been going to ABC for over 20 years. They are amazing!!

Took go care of our Odie good team of care providers.

We took our terminally Ill cat in for final ritesThey were very sweet and caring. No upscale and reasonable.

Went today for a check-up because I think my dog is sick. Easy to get an appointment right away. Called at 8am and had an appointment for 9:30am. They seem to do a decent job. Nothing to rave about.Examination Fee: $35Blood Test: $130Ova, Parasites, Giardia Test: $50Urinalysis: $50Urine Collection Cysto: $14

After an initial $420 consultation that yielded no results with little explanation, the veterenarian avoided me on the phone and took 5 days to return my call. Friendly staff, but horribly incompetent vet.

Great, professional vet and staff. Kind,carin c

People were very nice & really care about the animals. I will continue to use them for my cat Lily.

Great place if you need a vet

Always fix my dog up when he gets sick. Friendly staff.

I love the staff here, My dog actually gets excited about going to the vet.

Worst place ever as a customer service...too worry over a voucher? And get paid before seeing the animal. I wouldnt put a star an invisible star at that! Her name was Angela at uptown Hillcrest, think thats her name. She couldnt solve a simple problem?

Very nice vets and vet techs. They obviously care a lot about their patients.

I have a difficult dog, who is very fearful of the Vet. All the vets and the technicians have been very understanding and helpful, particularly Drs. Pei and Loken.Very pleased with patience and professional care they have displayed, I highly recommend these folks.

We have been taking our pets to ABC in Hillcrest for a number of years now, and Julie and Dr Heidt have seen us through both the highs and lows of having four legged loved ones in our family. Ill admit, I tried another vet once (a snazzy coupon/discount swayed me), and while my experience there was not awful, it just didnt leave a lasting impression on me like ABC SD did.Julie, Dr Heidt and all the gang there are consistently friendly, compassionate, full of helpful information, and exceptionally patient with both animals and humans. Having them there for us when we lost both a dog and a cat within a short period of time, and seeing their compassion for us and our pets is what made the most lasting impression on our family.Even though we moved to North County, today we brought our new puppy there for her first visit. Someone asked why we dont just go to a vet closer to home, but I never had a doubt about who her vet would be. When youve found such a stellar team, why should you go anywhere else!!!

I love this place everyone was so polite and caring to my puppys needs! Which means a lot to me!

These guys really care. They went above and beyond too help me (I was harder than my dog) and my dog. Thanks.

Very friendly staff.
