I have very mixed feelings about this place. My Persian cat was diagnosed with acute renal failure. He went in on Friday to the Animal Hospital at Baldwin Park and I was told that only 10% of his kidneys were working. I was told that if I sent him to the Emergency Vet clinic over the weekend and if he made it through the weekend then he had a good chance of living. The Emergency Vet clinic told me that according to his tests he did not have a chance of living and that I should euthanize him. That was the last thing I wanted to do and was willing to do whatever I could do to save his life. I discussed this with the doctor at the Animal Hospital at Baldwin Park and he suggested a transfusion and other treatments. I mentioned that I had done hours of research on the internet and according to my research it said that cats with end stage renal failure have no chance of living. He said you can't always go by the book and there was hope. He said that my cat could possibly make it and he would be a happy cat with daily treatment. I really got my hopes up but received a call the next day that my cat had passed away. I'm very upset because my total cost of vet bills totals over $3500. I think he should of been honest with me and upfront and told me that my cat wasn't going to make it. Maybe he believed that he could save his life. I'll never know I guess. All I know is that my cat is gone and I'm stuck with outrageous bills. Hollistic and alternative doesn't always save a pets life and can cost you an arm and a leg. I suggest doing a lot of research before spending thousands to this vet clinic.
Pros: nice area in Baldwin Park
Cons: very expensive
