I brought my friend and his Jack Russel to VCA. The pup wasnt feeling well. We were in the examination room immediately. The staff were very friendly and sincere. They were gentle and helped my friend out well using the proper coupons to make her treatment affordable for him. We are all happy now. Clean environment with free parking in the rear! Great job folks!

Took my elderly cat Marley here for his first vet visit in a while. Everyone was super nice! The place was clean, nice didn’t feel like your typical vet. Overall great experience, I got him a 1 year health plan. Only feed back, not to the location itself. The review you send in the email is SOO LONG. I was at question 14 and ONLY at 50% complete so I closed it. If you gunna send a review 10 questions or less.

NEVER GOING BACK!! The horror stories in these reviews about the administrative staff are accurate. The receptionist, Marissa, could not have been more rude and unnecessarily heartless. The Story: I left work early to rush home in traffic to pick up my dog and then sit in more traffic on Venice getting to their hell-joke location. I called to inform them I would be a few minutes late because of traffic. Marissa, the receptionist, said I would be turned away if I was more than 10 minutes late because of some un-aforementioned, seemingly arbitrary “protocol” - as if I have any control over getting through rush hour in Culver City traffic anyway. Taken aback, I asked if there could be any lenience, given how much traffic surrounds that location. (We’re talking the impossible junction that is Venice, Culver, Washington and an entrance to the 10.) She had the audacity to tell me that it was essentially my problem, not hers. Once I finally got there, I was exactly 12 minutes late, and she turned me away. I had been stuck in traffic for an hour, only to have this person wield her measly semblance of power, to make it all a waste of time. No compassion, no understanding. If that wasn’t frustrating enough, she had the nerve to call my dog my “baby,” as if she cared at all. Gross. She just couldn’t bother to remember his name. I requested to speak to the doctor, to which she said I could wait with no guarantee that he would speak to me. Rude. I waited 20 minutes to speak to Dr. Harrison Sailing regarding my 2-minute delay. As I waited, I asked a vet tech if she knew when he would be available. She glanced at Marissa before telling me that she “didn’t know.” Even though she had just left the room he was in. Finally Dr. Sailing came to the front to speak with me. He showed absolutely no consideration when I explained that I could not reschedule for another time because I cannot leave work early again. He told me that “plenty of people work and still make it to their appointments.” So much for compassion. He just repeated “I understand the frustration,” but clearly he did not. Please note: I had the last appointment of the day, 4:30, however the front door clearly listed their closing time as 6pm. They clearly just wanted to go home early. Also, the only reason I had to make this appointment at all is because I needed to refill my dog’s rx. He had just had a wellness exam at a different vet a few months ago, but they wouldn’t accept those records. Why would they pass up an opportunity to mage more money? TLDR: VCA Venture’s administrative staff are rude, heartless and terrible communicators. Don’t trust them with your pet (or should I say, your “babies”).

Dr. Tarazi was really sweet and gentle with my pet, and I appreciated how accommodating she was during the initial visit. However, once I paid, the level of attentiveness shifted. I asked the nurse for a copy of the initial treatment plan, and she brushed me off, saying, “I actually have another patient right now, so you’ll have to wait.” I then asked the front desk if I could speak with Dr. Tarazi again — they called her and let her know I was waiting in the lobby, but she never came back out. At that point, my questions essentially felt like an inconvenience to the staff — it was very apparent, which is sad. I understand that it’s a busy practice, but as a pet parent, I deserve the opportunity to ask follow-up questions and receive documentation, even after payment. So just a heads-up: make sure to get all your questions answered and paperwork in hand before you pay — you might not get the same level of care afterward.
