What recent reviews say

Dr. Moorer's team earns strong praise for orthopedic surgery skill and thoughtful rehab. Most reviewers highlight seamless TPLO and cruciate ligament repair, attentive post-op calls, and especially their in-home physical therapy with Jessica and other therapists, who educate owners and adapt to each dog's pace. Yet three unrelated reviews cite dangerous driving by a company vehicle on local highways. One patient reported a surprise $300 cancellation fee and unresponsive staff after posting-surgery concerns, contradicting claims of round-the-clock availability.

Recent shift: Two of the three negative reviews about reckless driving are recent (5 months and 1 year ago); the cancellation fee complaint is also one year old. No pattern of improvement or deterioration in core surgical/rehab care over the timeline.

VCA Central Park draws strong praise for appointment availability, staff compassion during euthanasia, and gentle handling of anxious pets. However, reviewers repeatedly fault the practice for high pricing (dental quotes $1500-2000 vs. $900 elsewhere), poor record management, inconsistent follow-through on agreed treatments, and barriers to prescription transfers. The most scathing complaints center on prioritizing expensive diagnostics over simpler solutions and unresponsiveness to patient concerns.

Front-desk experience and animal handling earn genuine praise from loyal clients, yet persistent complaints about expense, delayed diagnostics, and billing transparency paint a troubling picture. Recent reviews document record-keeping failures, staff shortages affecting continuity, and questionable upselling practices that cost families hundreds monthly over years.

VCA Alameda East Veterinary Hospital

3.3(945)✓ Verified

Some specialists here provide deeply attentive, evidence-based care that reviewers describe as genuinely reassuring, especially for complex cases and emergencies. Many five-star reviews praise individual doctors by name (Mason, Malishkin, Emch, Miller, Deitschel) for preparation, transparency, and emotional support. However, the facility attracts significant criticism for high costs relative to competitor quotes, pressure to buy expensive diagnostics or surgery upfront, and severe ER wait times (3+ hours reported). A Pattern of billing disputes and aggressive collections practices also surfaces. Reviewers also report inconsistent experiences: the same location has been described as "amazing" and "predatory" depending on the visit. Private equity ownership is cited as a cost driver by some reviewers.
