Woodward Pet Hospital - Fresno, California

Quiryatte Ahmed

Our senior chihuahua developed severe allergies especially in regards to his skin. Being new to the area we didn’t know were to take him.
They were able to get us in the same day and the Dr did a complete and thorough examination. You could immediately tell he is an expert in his field and he takes it very seriously.
He gave our dog some allergy medication as well as some suggestions and within 24 hours our dog’s symptoms drastically improved.
They also let us know ahead of time how much everything would be in regard to price and we could choose which services we wanted to pay for and which were optional. Very upfront with pricing which I liked that way there are no surprises.
Thank you for helping our old little guy! ?

My puppy doesn't like this place. She doesn't like strangers to touch her and she definitely didn't like the whole process of her checkup and shots. Especially when they touched her "no-no" spot when they took her temperature. My experience was good. I felt she was being handle with care and cautious even when she was trying to get away. She was talked to recognizing she has feelings and understanding her, and talking with calm tones. Never once making me or her feel like she is "just a dog ". I felt very informed of everything about her visit. I was recommended shots and medications specifically for her bcuz of her lifestyle so that she is protected at her best accommodating her life and not changing what she is used to. I think the cost was fair for her visit. I am happy with the overall experience. I love her so much and trust her in the care of Woodward pet hospital

My original vet retired and my friend recommended woodward pet hospital. Dr. Sohi has been my 2 dogs primary vet about 3 years now. I appreciate how detailed and thorough he is during examinations. Most of the visits have been general wellness, but my 6 year old Chihuahua has developed severe allergies. He's now on apoquel and not chewing himself raw. I feel the pricing is comparable to other vets and they even provide an itemized care plan with pricing before additional services. Each experience, I've been greeted professionally and my pups are handled with care and compassion. My pups are healthy and happy ?

Not a good vet. They'll charge you a whole lot of money just to test your pet. And after they've drained your account. Your pet will still be sick and dieing, because they didn't fix ANYTHING. if you want your pet actually cured, they send you to someone else. This vet has retaliated against me for my review and is refusing me service which is against the law in California. I believe they turned other vets against me as well. Avoid this business. They are not nice people.

To start off with, I would like to make it perfectly clear on some of the negative responses to the Woodward Pet Hospital. DR. COX was the owner and veterinarian to this Hospital for many years and had sold this hospital to Dr.Sohi some time ago. DR. COX's REVIEWS WERE NOT GOOD. Dr. Sohi is a completely different doctor and is very good at what he does and truly cares for the animals that come in to the hospital. Let me please explain to you what I mean by this. In September of 2017 I had taken Sasha in to see Dr. Sohi for a complete (yearly) examination. He did a very thorough examination on Sasha and found that her immune system was very low and in his diagnosis he wanted to have a second opinion from an expert in this area to verify his findings (he was not wrong in his findings). He is not a prideful man and his first thought was to get Sasha well and wanted a second opinion from an expert in his field from Los Angeles to make sure that Sasha received the very best care and treatment possible. At the end of her treatment, Dr. Calsyn told me that she was completely cured and was completely normal again which made me feel very good. Less than a week later she had gotten a staph infection in her right rear leg and foot causing them to swell up to about four times their normal size. Both Dr. Sohi and Dr. Calsyn did everything they could to resolve this problem. Neither of them are GOD but they did everything humanly possible to resolve this situation. Working together along with the medication that they had put her on, almost resolved this problem (about 90% healed). Dr. Sohi diagnosed her condition correctly. Because Dr. Sohi wanted to see Sasha a hundred percent cured, he suggested that I take her to UC Davis veterinary medicine which I did. They run her through every test humanly possible with a whole team of doctors diagnosing these results. What did they come up with? Exactly what Dr. Sohi first suspected was her condition. A very mild arthritis condition to her right leg (joint).This did not show up until after the staph infection. I think he hoped that they might have been able to fix it. He is now treating her for the pain but there is no cure at this time for arthritis. He diagnosed this condition from the very beginning correctly and it proved without a shadow of a doubt that his diagnosis was correct. Again, he is not GOD, he cannot fix everything, but he has done everything humanly possible to help my beloved dog Sasha. My question to you is this, is this the type of doctor you want looking after your loved ones?

I am forever grateful for all the wonderful treatment provided by Dr. Sohi and his team. I have two cats rambunctious cats that often need care. The doctor is very communicative and makes clear the treatment plan. There is also great follow up as well. Although when taking care of a sick pet price is often the last thing on your mind the doctors prices are extremely affordable and it is also easy to get an appointment.

Not sure why some of the staff act like they are doing you a favor for doing their job, but I refuse to take my animals and business somewhere where this is perpetuated.

Some of the staff is phenomenal, but for a staff member to speak to me in a condescending tone because I can't follow my dog around the yard with a bowl to collect a urine sample is ridiculous. Morgan was her name, gave me the biggest attitude because she said I will need to bring a urine sample with me, I asked how I should collect that and she said follow the dog around with a bowl. I said I didn't think I could do that because I work and she scares easy and her response was, "You can't do it when you get off of work? You work that long?"- No sorry this is what I pay the vet for is to do the work that I do not have the skills to do.

There are way too many wonderful vets in Fresno and surrounding areas than to pay for this kind of service. Got my pups into Sierra Vet within in 5 minutes of this ridiculous phone call. Will never take my business back here. Read all the Yelp reviews as well. This is a common issue at this vet.

**The response given by the vet team is not only untrue but shows just how tacky this place is run. Rather than apologizing for the misunderstanding and trying a diplomatic and PROFESSIONAL approach- I get a silly and UNTRUE response. To state AS FACT words from a very unprofessional worker to try to save face is probably why you have many other low star reviews.

Save yourself the grief, there are SO MANY other wonderful and professional vet offices.

And for the record- my father died in March, that is why I didn't take Lucy in for treatment until later. Because I was arranging and paying for a funeral. So before you try to insinuate in any way that I'm just concerned about the money and not so concerned with my pets health you should try to teach your staff some customer service skills.

I called them for help, trying to find or be on the lookout for a $30,000 service dog that was stolen from me.

Because of the rude and outright disrespectful behavior of the 2 girls that I spoke with ... I have to take other options.

Absolutely horrible people here.

Never take ANY PET or BIOLOGICAL MEDICAL DEVICE that YOU LOVE to this place!
