4.0 of 5 stars. Dr. Malcon is one of the best vets in the city. Dr. Petrucci was also great and was our vet for many years and we trusted her and Dr. Malcon completely. I wouldn't write off Marina Pet hospital…

Yelp.com Review - by Sarah K.

1.0 of 5 stars. 1. The insurance is a scam - the prices are outrageous compared to other clinic options. 2. The Vets are employees, not the business owners.

1.0 of 5 stars. Do yourself and go to a different vet. They made some really big mistakes with our dog on a couple of occasions. My specialist, in a very dimplomatic manner, suggested we take our care somewhere else,…

Good Vets; horrible front office service / cleanliness

I would give ZERO stars if it let me. I give up - I saw the way Rowena at the front desk treated someone today and am never going back. When will it be my turn to be her whipping boy? I don't want to wait...

We went to the pet hospital for a year and I have to say that while the Vets are good, nothing fancy but overall good, but the staff is terrible. They are rude, abrupt and inconsiderate. They need an entire...
