Benjamin G. replied:
We had a bad experience with Dr. Barrett. I found him condescending and his knowledge frankly seemed dated. I also went to Boulevard, and while Dr. Schuchman was great, we rarely saw him. Most of the other doctors were bad. One of them actually gave my dog shots without asking me first. It was an optional treatment that was non-emergent (cost money) and there were alternatives available. Dr. Schuchman apologized and said he would make sure he would be the only one to see my dog in the future, but his hours were too limited. We've been going to Hill's for more than a year now and they've been great. A little more expensive, but worth it (they have evening appointments on some weeknights too).

Dr. Barrett Canyon Veterinary Hospital for 25 years.
Katie I. replied:
We go to Dr. Barrett at Canyon Hospital for shots & simple things, but anything further than that, we go to Sage in Dublin. We had a bad experience when it came to a serious issue with Dr. Barrett. The people at Sage are incredible & genuinely care about your pet & you.
Plunkett-Deetz B. replied:
Chabot Vet the best
Kathy L. replied:
Donna McAdam Dernier, I am neither friend NOR family of Dr. Barrett, but that's who I recommend. We take our Boxer to him and my mother-in-law has used him for decades. By the way, he's had the same staff for years. That's a statement in itself.
Jessica J. replied:
Town & Country Veterinary Hospital in downtown Pleasanton. Little bit of a drive but worth it!
Nancy M. replied:
Dr. George at Chabot Vet
Brenda G. replied:
Hills Veterinary great friendly staff. Been using them for the past 15 years.
Donna D. replied:
Oh come on. There are lots of vets in Castro Valley! This looks like a coordinated blast by Dr Barrett's friends and family. We have used Grove Way Vet for years. Over the years, they have taken great care of two dogs and three cats. Also, they are reasonably priced compared to several other vets in town.
Tami B. replied:
I worked for Dr. Barrett about 25 years ago. His love of animals is true and strong! I still take my menagerie there. Plus he's got a great sense of humor!
Christina M. replied:
