Veterinarians & Veterianarian Insurance

We all know the importance of finding great veterinarians for our beloved furry friends. Unfortunately our pals cannot tell us what is wrong, so we must rely on instinct and our educated vets to help us diagnose a problem.

What I've found most important to me in a veterinarian is trust. Marley and I have visited a number of vets from living in Rancho Santa Margarita and Laguna Beach...I have encountered some who are great and some I've felt where a bit more interested in profit as opposed to my dog's well being.

So my listing here solely includes veterinarians I have used and can personally recommend or those recommended by friends and colleagues. Below you will find veterinarians submitted by our readers and their own personal experiences. If you have a vet that you personally recommend, please use the form below to share your experience. Together we can create a directory of those we feel most confident in caring for our canine companions...and other friends!

Veterinary Insurance

I also decided recently that veterinary insurance was something important for Marley's well being. I know if anything were to happen to her I would not refuse incurring a large veterinary bill...she is a special part of my family. After researching various companies I chose Pets Best Insurance. The monthly charge for her coverage is affordable and puts my mind at ease, quite invaluable in my opinion.

A year after I purchased a Pets Best policy for Marley she tore her ACL and required surgery (not cheap!) I couldn't be happier with the decision I made as Pets Best paid for 80% of the cost after my deductible and per incident limit. My experience with Pets Best was extremely stress free and that was greatly appreciated during a stressful time. Marley is now doing great by the way :)

With plans from less than $1 per day Pets Best Insurance plans can help cover the cost of treating your dog or cat’s unexpected illnesses and accidents by reimbursing 80% of your actual vet bill after a deductible.

Start your free quote now now and find out how affordable peace of mind can be.
