Unfortunately this hospital is recommended by the non-profit bird rescue group Mickaboo. Because I live in San Francisco it seemed logical to find a good avian vet in the City. But when my bird actually develped a medical condition and I took her in - it led to a spiraling number of expensive visits, expensive re-checks, tests, shots, and other prescribed medication. Worst of all, my bird just got weaker and weaker from the procedures and medicine that went along with the original diagnosis. I ultimately stopped this situation by taking my bird to Boulevard Pet Hospital in Castro Valley - to Dr. Schuchman - a very experienced vet who specializes in birds and reptiles. After one weekend in his care, she began to eat and get stronger and regain her personality, and I could begin to live my life again. We don't have all of the answers yet on her condition, but I believe if I had not transferred her care away from Bay Area Bird Hospital, she might not even be alive today.
Pros: They are located in San Francisco
Cons: Poor Quality Care / High Prices
