Dr. Bill Golbeck charged me for a surgery that he preformed but was unable to do successfully. After paying him nearly 2000$ for NOT removing a stone that was lodged in my dogs urethra, I was referred by him to a specialist at a hospital that performed the same surgery within a couple hours time, (a surgery without which my dog would not be alive right now) successfully for 2700$.

I had to do everything I could to find the money to pay the second bill and before I found people willing to financially help me I thought that I would have to prepare for the worst .

Their hours are slightly limited though they have improved in the past few months and their website is downright awful... more

My first few visits to the clinic were to purchase food. My mom has been feeding her cats Medi-Cal food since they were kittens. 15 years later and those cats...
