Hacienda Animal Clinic

Dr. E and staff we’re AWESOME with our chi «Lolita’s» spay. Caring and affordable 1000%. Others start looking for the maximum amount to charge your insurance (if u have any pet ins.) or for you to practically max out your credit cards but Hacienda Animal Clinic quoted a reasonable price and once weight and age was confirmed I’m assuming, the price was reduced. Finally! An honest vet place these days is so rare. We’ve been coming here since 2002 and strayed due to moving away from LP but after being taken for a couple of huge rides at other places, we are BACK. Lolita, Diego and ms. Piggy are lucky!

Superior experience judging from my two office visits with Dr. E and his great staff. First was a Saturday morning when my baby dog had a bloody diarrhea. Dr. E was super calm and knowledgeable. He explained everything that I need to know about her situation and was so patient to answer my million more questions. His calmness made me feel less nervous and his simple treatment, which was out my expectation since I thought she might need to have crazy iv injections, cured her almost immediately! Second visit was when I had some issue with my pet insurance company. Both Dr. E and his staff were very friendly and helpful. Problem solved! Total recommended!

We’ve been going to Dr. E for 14 years. As first time pet owners, we had no idea where to go but he was recommended to us by a family friend. Dr. E is very straight forward and I completely trust him with all of my dogs. We were so nervous about everything when we got our first dog that we would call him about everything and anything (yea, we were those people) but he was always honest with us and never made us come in for an unnecessary visit. Our visits are straight forward and entertaining (I enjoy his humor but by reading some other negative reviews, I can see some people don’t get it.)
Also, one of our dogs had chronic ear infections. It got to the point where we were going in all of the time for medication because she was scratching so much that her ears were bleeding. After trying several different meds, Dr. E was pretty much like, «Look, you can keep coming in and spending money on appointments and medication for the rest of her life, and she’s a healthy dog so it will be long, or you can do this surgery.» He referred us to a surgeon in Irvine and we had her ear canals removed and ears sealed. That was 6 years ago (she’s 14 now) and she’s still going strong and the surgery was probably the best thing we ever did for her. She’s a happy, healthy, spunky dog still and I appreciate the fact that Dr. E gave us another option.

moved to la puente I needed a new vet I came across this place with a great rating and since 2013. I’ve been satisfied the doc is very knowledgeable and great experience every time.

Today my first visit, brought my puppy for first check up. Highly recommended. Called in this morning, they squeeze me in this morning appt as soon as they know my puppy vaccine due next Monday. Small clinic, everyone was nice, doctor was super kind. He also checked my puppies and found out puppy got ear infection, also took care immediately. Reasonable price, with tons of love. I am happy choose them Unilocal

Honest to god I am so greatful for this doctor. He saved my dogs life. I’ve never trusted anyone more than this doctor with my dog. He is a blessing. He saved my cocker spaniel odie. I was depressed crying for 5 days. And now odie is fully recovered. Best place I’ve ever taken odie. This doctor will never give up on you

As a first-​time dog owner… I was obviously quite nervous about my first visit, not knowing how my new hyperactive 7-​month pup would react. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating, and I did not need to wait long for my appointment (which I booked in advance). I’ve only had my dog (brownie) for a little less than 2 weeks, so I was coming to do a check-​up and have the doctor examine some skin lesions. He is a hyperactive pup who still needs a lot of obedience training/​discipline. so I was expecting a very difficult time. I was SO surprised at how submissive and calm he was with Dr. Estafanous! The examination was very professional and went without a hitch, the doc did a skin sample, and even let me look at the microscope to confirm his diagnosis. The process was VERY transparent, and Dr. Estafanous was straightforward about treatment options and prices. I did not feel any pressure to buy or initiate treatment, it was all on my own terms. This place seems like a genuine and honest business and truly earns every star on Unilocal

Ive taken my pets here since late 90’s. its mins from my house, my 13 year old best friend just passed, the dr called him the million $ dog, got run over when he was 5, broke both back legs, only time he sent me some where else but gave him pain meds and stopped wrapped bleeding before we went to emergency. Great vet never thought of going anywhere else with my new puppy.

My first here! and iam glad we went there. first of all my Lil ollie loved there, he went in for vaccinations and a checkup. .the girls that work the front desk… are super nice they really made us feel welcomed. the best par t is the vet he is truly amazing! He answers all your questions and really explains the answers. he does a thorough examination of the animal. you can just tell he loves and care for the well being ofanimals… and the plus to all this are the prices! So affordable. the only thing is they are busy so making an appointment is the best.

Hacienda Animal Clinic is amazing. The staff is overly kind and Dr. Stephen is amazing. He cared for my Cocker Spaniel til she was almost 15 years old and he basically kept her alive for me to enjoy her that long. They are very honest, exceptionally caring and was able to do an eye surgery that another Vet told me I had to go to a specialist for (before I had ever gone to Hacienda Animal Clinic). I now have a new Cocker Spaniel and wouldn’t go anywhere else. I call, and they know who I am without telling them. Best Vet all around.

Best vet in the world! Been taking my animals to him my whole life! He always has the answer and truly cares about you pets! Trust him with my pets 100%!!! :D

Dr. E has saved my dogs life more than once. He is the only pet dr I will bring my animals to. I now live out of state but will make the trip just for my dogs. He’s funny and cares about his patients. Best pet dr in his area

***My review for deleted, again.***
I came here as a last resort to bring in a puppy I barely found off the streets and my other dog whom I’ve had for about a year when I came here to get vaccines. I began to sign paper work and as I am doing so the receptionist begins to examine my dog (there are two girls from what I remember, one was bigger and was extremely rude) This girl began to ask me if my puppy was eating or if it was from mal nutrition. Keep in mind, I am in the waiting room with other people as well. I was very shocked and could not believe she just asked me that. So I then said «excuse me?» and I asked «is the vet not going to check my dogs vitals signs and examine him in a room?» She said no, «I’m doing it right now.» She then said «he has parvo.» I was extremely pissed off and tried to keep my mouth shut and not cause a scene. Her being so educated in veterinary medicine should know how serious parvo is, so why would you say that in front of everyone?! I myself worked at a veterinary hospital for a year and would be fired if I diagnosed a patient. I know how customer service works at an animal hospital and it is so sad to see how unorganized this place was. Unfortunately, my puppy had to be put down because he did have parvo. I love my dog and she’s my world and is my kid (my other dog) I am glad she did not receive any services from here. Yes it is cheap but so are their services.

So i just found a couple days ago that my puppy (jack Russell) has parvo any advice u guys can give me? He is currently staying at this hospital over night i just hope he gets better and feels 100% like before. Thank you any comments are appreciated!

I’ve been bringing my cat here since 98. Dr. Stephen is great before him I took my cat to other two vets and I really disliked them.
Hacienda animal clinic is very straight forward and they definitely won’t overcharge you.
Highly recommend!

We have been going here for years and I recommend many friends to take their pets here. Dr. Estafanous is a wonderful vet and has treated quite a few of our dogs. He does not run needless tests on your pets and is very straightforward. He also has a great sense of humor. I highly recommend taking your pets to Dr. Estafanous!

I’ve been coming to this vet for 14 years. I’ll say this now, this vet is very straight forward and some people might get the wrong impression. But let’s grow up here and realize that you don’t want your vet to sugar coat things. Because your pet is your child and he’s trying to help you. This is the hands down cheapest vet out there and does what he has to do in a professional manner.
(personal story don’t read if you just want the basic, this gives an example to why he is such a good vet)
So I took my baby, chico, who was 8 ½ years old. He has heart and lung problems and things were getting bad. He was throwing up blood and couldn’t even walk, wasn’t eating or drinking. We took him to the vet and we honestly thought we were going to have to put him down. He was suffering. But instead the vet kept him for a couple hours and helped him out. When I picked up chico he was good as new. Let me remind you he is not god, but I was thankful he gave us another healthy day with him. Before I picked him up the vet turned to me and said that what he has is very serious. I shook my head in understanding while my eyes watered up. I picked him up and took him home with some medication. The vet gave me MANY DISCOUNTS. and lowered by Bill by 50 $. It could have been because chicos time was coming but it’s not like he was trying to rip me off. I bought two new medications and basically an over night stay. Life’s not free, but the vet understood and was berry generous. It didn’t last long and now my baby is in heaven. But this vet is very carrying and loves what he does. I trust him with amp my future pets if he is still around.

I live in West Covina and only take my two English Bulldogs to Dr. Butchko in Riverside but my 45lb 9 month old female needs to get spayed and since my schedule is a little tight, I decided to search for a vet closer to home, considering a spay is a pretty general procedure.
So I called Hacienda Animal Clinic, they asked me for her age and weight and gave me a quote of $ 110. I proceeded to call around more and then decided that this would be the most convenient place to do this because I would be able to drop her off before work and I was also pleased with the amount of positive reviews on Unilocal.I called back and this time they asked me what type of breed she is and then told me that the spay would cost $ 300. I didn’t even bother telling them that I was quoted $ 110 before because they were already trying to get more money out of me and I hadn’t even walked through the door.
Not cool. Not cool. Not cool. Guess I will be making the drive over to Dr. Butchko who I know I can trust.

Absolutely love this place. There are a couple animal clinics around where I live but I always make it a point to drive out to Hacienda for this place!
The doctor is funny and friendly. He is also very honest unlike some of the other vets I’ve encountered. As a student most of my money goes towards paying for school. I have told the doctor this before and he seems to keep my financial situation in mind when answering my many questions regarding my babies’ health. He is very informative and never seems to suggest anything for the pure sake of his financial gain, which I appreciate with all my heart!
If you love your pet as much as I do, I would recommend you go to this clinic!!! On top of a great doctor, they also have a great staff! The receptions are always so helpful when I walk in trying to juggle both my babies.

This pet clinic is the best! I am so impressed, I’ve un-​bookmarked other vets in the area I had an idea to go to. I called to get a quote about deworming and other services and the assistant was super polite, helpful, and friendly! She’s why I changed my mind about going to another pet clinic near by.
The assistant helped me understand over the phone and told me if I came in, the Vet would answer all my questions. Which he did!
Jake has now had an injection to rid his intestines of the parasites but I’ll be coming back here when he needs anything! The Vet was so accommodating and informative! He kept asking if I had any more questions! And have me advice.
Thank you guys so much. Our pets are family to us so thank you for keeping that in mind and treating us with integrity and kindness.
