Mission Animal Hospital, A Thrive Pet Healthcare Partner

I recently took my 10-year-old Labradoodle to Mission Animal Hospital for a wellness exam after he was showing signs of an injury or arthritis.

When I arrived, the team immediately set me up in an exam room—providing a couch instead of chairs in the room is a really thoughtful touch. All of the staff were extremely friendly and patient.

I appreciate how easy it is to book online and that I didn't feel rushed when talking to the vet. She took a conservative approach, rather than pushing unnecessary exams and costs.

The next day, a staff member called to follow up and ask how my dog was doing. It's a small thing but it meant a lot to me. I am relieved to find a vet that I feel good about and I will absolutely continue my pet's care here.

Such wonderful people over at MAH!:) Great care and lots of availability for appointments. The other Thrive Pet Healthcare hospital (North County) we went to up in Paso was excellent as well.

This is definitely my favorite animal clinic in San Luis Obispo! All the people there are great with the animals. My dog Rayo is very nervous every time when he has appointments. This time was different, the nurses and doctors were very patients making to my dog feels comfortable. Even when he felt nervous in the visit. This is the best clinic! 100% recommended!

I have been to a number of vets across the country and I don’t think I have ever been in a more welcoming or kind environment. Friendly staff, great service, and impressive facility (couches in the room with music playing). This was an incredibly positive experience and we will be bringing all of our pets here in the future.

Have been taking our Red Lab
Beaucefus for over 5 years. They are awesome.just added a new yellow lab and he loves it there. They are by far the most competent animal hospital in SLO.they always follow up, call and remind you of upcoming appointments, and their staff is so loving and knowledgeable.
Wouldn't trust anyone else with our Fur Babies.

Mission Animal Hospital is wonderful! All the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful! My special pup was super nervous, but everyone was so patient and kind to make the experience for him a little easier! Scheduling appointments, checking-in, and checking-out were all seamless and done in a quick, efficient manner! All the vets and helpers were super through at explaining what they were doing and recommending products and care plans! They have a super cute treat bar in the lobby, and the interior of the entire building is super spacious! The next day after our visit, the vet had called to check-in and make sure my dog was doing alright after his round of vaccinations, which I really appreciated! Definitely recommend this wonderful place! They really care!

Friendly, no nonsense animal hospital. They expect payment at time of service pronto. But you have options. They except scratchpay, care credit, animals in need fund and what. If your in a pinch, this helps. The room your pet goes into has its name on dry erase board and a small doggy couch. The staff are very good and caring of your pets.

Such a great place to take our dog, Harmony. She is very comfortable there because of the great people and the dog friendly exam rooms with couches. Excellent advice and direction from Dr. Sara Fuller in particular. Love this place!

Very friendly and knowledgeable. Our dog Jax even likes to go! That has never happened before.

I have a senior dog with a lot of anxiety/separation issues. She is currently on medication from another vet but started having diarrhea, poor appetite and Iethargic after going up on her dose. I called Mission Animal Hospital and they were luckily able to get her in same day. The receptionist was so helpful and answered all my questions.
The office staff were very attentive, they truly listened to my concerns and they were very sweet to Baby Bear.
The vet who saw us that day was very thorough. She offered a plan of action and didn't try to pressure me into testing but instead offered supportive care. I greatly appreciate that as it is already so challenging to watch your pet decline. We discussed next options and went home with meds to help with pain as needed.
I received a follow up call the next day and they said to call at any time if her symptoms don't improve.
Very grateful for this team, it's not ideal but their compassion makes all the difference.

Wonderful staff! They are professional, friendly, and always provide the best care for my dog. Highly recommend!

Nice facility, friendly staff. However extremely disappointed in the vet we saw, who insisted a rabies vaccine was mandatory for cats when i declined vaccines. The cat is 11 years old and strictly indoors and as an animal control officer, i know for a fact rabies vaccines are recommended but NOT required for cats. I would recommend your vets educate themselves with the california vaccine laws required for pets. I mentioned that the vets i have worked with in santa maria dont mandate it, and she suggested maybe we should go there. Just another upcharge in my opinion. And when i paid the bill and asked for a rabies certificate, i was told they don't give them out for cats, only dogs. Shame on you
