I've had many family dogs in my life since I was a little girl, but my Jessie was the most special dog. I could call her 'my daughter.' She was my first. I took her everywhere with me. One day, she coughed up some blood. I thought maybe something was stuck in her throat. I took her to this San Lorenzo vet, and they told me to come to the x-ray room. Dr. Halbach explained that she had a tumor. I was so shocked and devastated that I dropped to the ground and started to cry. Since then, Dr. Halbach and his staff tried their best to get me in for an oncology appointment. Dr. Halbach was so personal and gave me many amazing pieces of advice. He tried to console me in the best possible ways to prepare for goodbye. I've been to many doctors, including human doctors, but never met anyone like him. I felt so grateful, and I'm still grateful. Thank you again.

Dr. Halbach and his team are truly the best. My family has been bringing our pets to see him for the past 30 years. I had brought my three year old Pom to an ER clinic at 4AM. The emergency visit which included bloodwork, xrays, fluids, meds was $1500.. the estimate for a pit removal from her intestine was $9000. They were putting a lot of pressure on me to make an immediate decision, but I am so glad I waited a few hours for Dr. Halbachs office to open for a second opinion. Without an appointment, his staff was very understanding and they were able to see us and take care of my girl. Unlike newer vets who like to dive right into invasive treatment, Dr. H said there was a good chance the pit could pass naturally. After a day of monitoring and no improvement we scheduled for surgery the next day. Despite being in the books for surgery today, the team tried one more time to aid the pit out naturally and it did! I am so thankful for Dr. Halbachs knowledge and patience. Our pup did not need the surgery! Even if she did, the price I was quoted was a fraction of the cost I was quoted at the first clinic. Our pom is back to her normal self and we are so thankful! I put all my trust in this teams hands when it comes to my 2 dogs.
