Sunrise Boulevard Animal Hospital

Performed surgery for our cat and gave him a bath. We were very pleased with the service of the staff and reasonable prices. Would definitely bring our cats here again as we had a pleasant experience. We were not hassled for any other services other than what we called them for which was very nice!

Sunrise Blvd. Animal Hospital, I not sure where to start they are really that good !
I started bringing my puppy to Sunrise upon the recommendation of a very close friend after some re-​ocurring problems.
I was greated with open arms and a extremely kind heart, the entire staff at Sunrise makes you feel at home and welcomed. This in itself isn’t the easiest task sometimes as they are consistently busy ! They also find time to see every person and their pet and treat them like they are there only patient there at the time. It’s this direct one on one connection the doctors develop with the dogs (and their owners) that is second to none and what really set’s Sunrise apart from most other Vet’s
I was also recently in a car accident with my puppy and after the accident Dr. Rosich personally reached out and called us to make sure both my dog and I were ok. My own family didn’t even do this !
It’s hard to put into words how much that call meant to me, thank you to Dr. Rosich and the entire staff of Sunrise Boulevard Animal Hospital you are the best!!! … you should really charge more too ;)

We just had our first appointment here and we couldn’t be happier with the kindness of the front desk staff, the friendliness of the vet techs, and the informative and caring nature of the vet Dr. Rosich. They all seem to love their jobs and the animals that come through their doors. We rescued a dog last Saturday. We didn’t know much about her background and we had a lot of questions about some issues our pup seemed to be having. The vet took her time with us and explained everything. We never felt rushed or dumb for asking questions that most pet owners probably already have the answers to. She was so kind and passionate about everything she was talking about. They didn’t try to milk us for more add ons but did inform us of certain things we can think about and do research on if we’d like to proceed with them. Definitely not pushy at all. Everything was our choice and we never felt like we HAD to do/​buy anything extra. Great prices as well! I’m sure we’ve found a permanent vet!

Oh it gets better not only did I never get a phone call on 11÷18÷15 like I was told on 11÷17÷15 but when I dropped my Maci off for her procedure today 11/​30/​2015 to get 2 teeth extracted I get a check up iPhone call from Tami that was less than a minute long saying she did fine just as expected and j could pick her up in a bit. After my own doctor appointment I stop by at 4 and they said I could consult with Tami about Maci but she just went in with a family but I could wait. I asked if it would be 5 minutes or 45 minutes she said it would be 45 minutes but my didn’t answer after than. I said for this I’ll be back after dinner. (I’m deathly allergic to cats so waiting in the office for a long period is risky to my health even taking my meds and wearing a mask as I was with my mother with me). At 5:45 I get a call she’s ready, almost 2 hours later, this is insulting to my time that you’ve had her since 9, didn’t call till 1:30 when she was almost done and at 4 I couldn’t get her but at 6 I can? So we go back taking my health chances again. Tami took us (my mother and I) in a room to discuss the above matter as if I was in the wrong. She still claimed there were no shows but «the way their system works they can’t see all the dates just 3 of them». Hmm maybe because again you are lying and with my yearly calendar in hand asked for a printed summary. Tami said she couldn’t provide one because the system would show it. Well that’s enough for me to show your office is full of crap. I went on to defend his insulting her staff was about the disibiltaspect and she could have cared less, well let’s see how the ADA feels about it. She more wanted to hound in on making me pay $ 85 from now on to book appointments even though an appointment is only $ 35. Further she turned a deaf ear unless it was what she was saying so I did the same as she wanted to hear nothing I had to say about how her office is run poorly in the front staff, how I e waited 1.5 hours for an appointment and left because I had other business and she moved on to the what she had done to my dog. She started to talk about the extractions which I want I under the assumption she did 3 – 4, when she shows me a bag of 10 I’m horrified. Literally like what the fuck did you do to my do with out my permission, not even calling to notify me and think it’s ok to do that much drama to a 5 year old dog at one time? She had no answers except excuses that it was necessary, no X-​ray to show me they were bad before and needed to be out. I was beyond pissed wanted my dog at this point. I leave the room to check out and am welcomed by a $ 513 bill which was more than 2 spats I paid for my other dogs. How outrageous, and so many fillers that I’ll be fighting over or taking to court. There were things on there that were done 2 weeks ago not today, you can’t change twice. I am beyond angry and upset especially terrified to take my animals here for even an exam. By the way I’m still waiting for them to fill out the simple 1 line sign and date insurance form so I can get reimbursed, how hard is it or are you doing that on purpose?
My family and I fully believe my dog has been the victim of a hanis act of revenge and retaliation for my phone complaint and prior Unilocal review.
To get another opinion I have called and spoke with 4 other reputable vets so far today (with 7 messages in at other vets waiting for call backs) and all have said
— over the top
— too invasive
— no consult or visuals?
— how much? Over $ 500 did she get dentures too? That’s over priced!
— 10 at once?
— take her back to treat for fluids (if this is the case how do I trust this direction with horrible people who caused this in the first place?)
— you have pet and owner rights
Etc.
This concludes that what they have done was not acceptable in the eyes of other local credible vets, was way to invasive, over priced, not communicative with the client and out right vicious to an innocent animal.

I found this veterinary hospital over two years ago and what a find. It reminded me of my old rural veterinarian way back when. Down to earth and caring this is my go to place for my four legged babies even though It is 10 miles away.

We love Dr. Bill ! He is awesome, takes his time, knowledgeable and is very thorough. We take our dog Brutus. The assistant helping Dr. Bill was also great with our dog. Brutus doesn’t like anyone, but was receptive to her?! We were shocked! We won’t be taking our dog anywhere else for care:-)

This is my forever Vet, Dr Fastigi is the best and I wouldn’t take my fur babies anywhere else. He is very thorough and knowledgable, explains everything in great detail. Don’t complain about the wait because he will take the time with you in your visit. I had an emergency once and they took my pup in right away and did everything they could for him. 5 stars!!!

I LOVE this vet! My family has been taking our pets here since I was little girl. Now my husband and I take our 2 dogs and cat here. We normally see Dr. Fastiggi however I have seen both vets and both are great along with the staff! Some people may complain about the wait time being over your scheduled appointment but it is well worth it. Keep in mind that I’ve had to bring my pup in for an emergency and they stopped all appointments to see me right away making everyone else run late. If your the person sitting there waiting just remember that they will do that for your pet if you have an emergency. They have never tried to sell me anything that I don’t need. If anything they give us great advice on things that I can even buy at the grocery store that has helped my curious puppies when they decided to chew up a phone cord! I also take my dogs in to just get a nail trim. The dogs are always excited to see the staff here. Bottom line they are the best with an amazing staff and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

New to town, they squeezed me in and their staff and vets were great! We now have a new vet! Love them!

Alas, found a forever vet. Dr. Fastiggi was so caring towards my dog Misty. I took her in because she was in pain. He knew right away what the problem was and told me she had a pinched nerve. However still wanted xrays to confirm it and that there was not a disc problem. Having xrays it showed my 10 year old friend has arthritis and where it is. Dr. Fastiggi was kissing on my dog like she was his dog, so caring. The front office staff were friendly upon entering which sets the tone. Very pleased!

I adore Dr. Fastiggi. As another reviewer mentioned, don’t be in a hurry. This is not the place for a quick checkup. Dr. Fastiggi is very knowledgeable and very thorough — so sometimes he may be running a little behind. Rest assured, he won’t rush you either!
I also really appreciate that neither of the vets at this hospital try to oversell you on things you don’t really need or things that are more expensive just to line their pockets. I’ve had Dr. Fastiggi give me statistics on prescription food versus another less expensive brand — (2% different in effectiveness, so 95% versus 97%) He didn’t really even make a recommendation, just gave me the facts so I could decide on my own how to proceed.
I can’t say enough nice things about this vet.

They used to be good — but lately, every time I turn around they are finding ways to jack up the fees. Now they can’t even give flea medication without charging for an appt — even though they have been my dogs vet for the past 9 years and he has been using that medication all his life.
Ridiculous. I am now getting it at the Sunday Western Feed Clinic — and its way cheaper.

Can’t say enough about this Sunrise Animal Hospital. We’ve mostly seen Dr. Fastiggi who is amazing! But the rest of the staff is very kind. They have very reasonable prices and really care about your pets. Dr. Fastiggi always explains things in a way that you’ll understand and is very honest about every scenario. I wouldn’t take my babies anywhere else! Thank you to all of you!

I recently had to have a pet euthanized, and I could not have asked for a more compassionate caregiver. The procedure was done with skill and kindness. I recommend Dr. Rosich to anyone who needs a vet.

First things first. I’ve gone to at least 4 different vet hospitals for my pets and this one blows the other away. Not only are they much less in costs they are passionate and have their own dogs hanging around the vet office while they work. Dr. Fastiggi was our Dr. He was very informational and talkative. He kept my needs simple and straight forward. About a month later my doggy came down with the same problem in which I called the hospital to ask for a refill on her prescription. I spoke with Sandy… WHO SAVED ME MONEY AND A TRIP TO THE VET! She reminded me that I should have left over medication from last time and said to just use that and see if the symtoms go away. WHICH THEY DID!!! My other vet would never have thought of a suggestion like that. I no longer have «another vet!» i’m sticking to Sunrise Boulevard Animal Hospital for all my 4 legged children’s needs.

The staff here is pretty amazing. They are always so friendly and willing to help. I was taking my dog Roxy to Loomis Basin (they treated her for heart worm and unsuccessfully treated her for an ear infection) and became dissatisfied with the service there. I searched far and wide to find a good vet with decent prices. After what seemed like an endless search, I came across Sunrise Boulevard Animal. I am so thankful I did. Initially, Dr. Fastiggi was Roxy’s vet and he is absolutely wonderful. Waiting for Dr. Fastiggi in the patient waiting room can take some time. However, I feel it is quite worth it because he doesn’t rush with his patients. He is very smart and informative and explains things thoroughly and clearly. For a few weeks, Dr. Fastiggi was on leave due to back surgery so I had to switch to Dr. Rosich. She is just as wonderful as Dr. Fastiggi. After taking Roxy to Loomis Basin for nearly 2 years, her ear infection never seem to improve. However, after months of seeing Dr. Rosich, there were improvements. It has been a little over a year and Roxy’s ears have never looked better. Both doctors clearly love pets. Roxy is an outside dog and is not the cleanest. Nonetheless, both doctors will hug and kiss her (even I won’t do that. LOL.) By the way, my former veterinarian (before Roxy contracted heart worm) is literally down the street from my house (about a one minute drive). However, I am willing to drive the 20 minutes to Sunrise Boulevard because the staff and service is well worth it! They also have a few dogs (and I believe a cat) that linger around the waiting area. All the pets are sooo clean and so well behaved. I feel that reflects greatly on the vets and staff because it shows that they love their pets and take care of them. And I will gladly trust my pets with them because of the love they show their own pets as well as mine.

We love Dr. Fastiggi and staff. They have always treated our cats and dog wonderfully. Also seeing their staff’s dogs and kitties around is really comforting.
We recently had to say good bye to our beloved 13 year old cat, whose kidneys were finally shutting down. They were so very kind through our fight to try and help our kitty get well to the ultimate heartbreaking final decision to not prolong his death. I appreciate their kindness as we broke down from our overwhelming grief.

This place is a life saver. Well it was for my doxie! After getting an estimate at my vet (well ex-​vet now) for $ 2000 to get some tumors removed from my dog, I got a second opinion at Sunrise Animal Hospital. Dr Tammi gave me many options and a way better price quote, cutting my bill in half and then some. They treated me and my pup with great care. Super friendly staff and a super clean facility. I left with a tumor free pup and even a little change in my pocket. Cha-​ching!

I’ve been going to this vet off and on for the last few years. This would be my only vet but I actually live in the bay area now. So yes, that’s right, under certain circumstances I drive an hour and a half so that I can be assured my doggie will be in the right hands! For whatever reason, I haven’t found comparable vet in the east bay.
I have a Jack Russel who can be a bit mistrusting of strangers. Nothing unusual for the breed. They are always understanding and don’t judge and she warms up to them quickly. The few times I’ve had to leave her here for a teeth cleaning or getting spayed she alway comes back happy and full of stuff (even if she’s a bit loaded) and never looks scared or like anything bad might have happened to her.
So yeah, I’m an animal lover and my dog is my baby, but I do have a tendency to trust her judgement in people. She’s almost always right.

Dr. Fastiggi may be a good dog and cat vet, but he knows nothing about rabbits. DON’T take your rabbit here (or possibly any other exotic animal). He will treat the pet but has no idea what he’s doing. Luckily, I got my rabbit to a real rabbit vet. Rabbits have very special needs and the vet must be trained in their care.
