This is my favorite place to take my pups! It's a real family at Gentle Touch...not a big corporate conpany who doesn't know your animals names or even care about them. Everyone is SO excited when we arrive...animals and people! They really care about my babies and are always just a phone call away. Anytime I've had an issue and need an emergency visit, or just guidance about something...they have been there! Wouldn't want to go anywhere else.

Awful experience with the new doctor. She is extremely rude and unprofessional. I've been going there for two years and my animal has always felt welcomed there, this time with the New doctor my animal was scared out of its mind. The doctor did the opposite of what I asked and did a very bad job. I highly highly highly DO NOT recommend this place for any reason!

Dr. Greg Dobkin is the best! I love love love him because he is the best intelligent vet who really cares about your pet. I promice it! He saved "my life" when my shiba doge was in trouble three times for past year. He is really love his job for my opinion. There weren't waiting time at all. I called them and they always said that they were waiting for me. The office stuff even opened the door for us because I told them by phone that how I feel this is emergency. I had totally different experience with VCA Alameda East Veterinary where all vets talking about money only.

Anyway, I want to say that Gentle Touch Animal Hospital is a home for me and my dog Bruno forever now!

Dr. Dobkin is outstanding and really takes the time to do a thorough evaluation and encourages communication. The entire staff is professional and caring and the office is new and no smells! It is easy to get in for an appointment and the wait times are minimal. We have been to 4 other vet offices due to moves and their prices are very reasonable!
