Brought my Goffins cockatoo in for. Seizures she was having during grooming only. The exotic vet took great care of her and was gentle kind an patient with her. They got me in right away without having to wait with dogs or cats in the waiting room. She didnt push any treatments that were not absolutely necessary. Great experience. I highly recommend!

Best Veterinary in California hands down. We took our guinea pigs and Parakeets here for years. Today we took our Parakeet to be seen for a stool issue and the whole took great care of him! 10/10 we recommend everyone to come her.

As always, the entire staff was awesome. From the front desk to the tech to the vet. A+ all around. Could not possibly ask for more. My little baby girl (parakeet) was well cared for and got what she needed and is doing fantastic. Thank you all! 🥰

How we grade

Satisfaction (54%) — Recency-weighted star average (2-year half-life), shrunk toward the category mean by review volume; the company’s own lifetime average as the prior; absolute: 4.0★ = 0, 5★ = 100.

Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.

Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in — clean highlights are the norm, not a bonus.

Value (14%) — Customers’ own price verdicts (Great / Reasonable vs Overpriced) and Value highlights; 65% absolute (all “reasonable” ≈ 80, “great” = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.

Momentum (penalty, up to −10) — Penalises only a real slide: last-12-month average below lifetime (−0.5★ = 0). Still 4.8★+ over the last year, or steady/improving = 100. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in.

Replies to reviews (7%) — How often the owner publicly replies to reviews under 5★ (1–4★). Needs 3+ such reviews, otherwise not counted; 65% absolute (80%+ replied = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
