My cat Thackery had an entropion issue that was diagnosed last year around August. I put off addressing the issue for so long, mainly because Thackery already had a surgery done to remove the fox tail that I knew was in there. Luckily Dr. Jorge Ruiz was attentive to what I had to say, found it, & removed it. But that is when we had this entropion issue. Despite me not wanting a 2nd opinion (from an opthalmologist which would've cost about 4x as much), I trusted Dr. Ruiz to do the entropion surgery. And I am so pleased that we agreed on him doing the surgery because just after 2 days it definitely is healing very well, his eye is starting to look better too as he now can open it wider than before. Happy cat, happy owner, and so relieved!

We have been clients of Dr. Ruiz for nearly two decades and he is an incredible vet. He is consistent, caring and clear on what our cats have needed— we have brought several cats and dogs to him over the years. Our cats are so calm and confident here. We use other vets when we travel and are always relieved to return to Griffith Pet and Dr. Ruiz! The prices are good for L.A. vets. Reception can get busy but they are managing many panicked pet owners, so I remember my own patience is required. I recommend this place above all others! 10 stars!!!

Great service! They treated my cat the day I called to make an appointment and made sure to be thinking of my cat's health first and foremost!

I brought my dog in for a neuter, dental cleaning, and microchipping, and the entire process was handled with such care and professionalism. I felt completely at ease after meeting Dr. Ruiz and his team! Dr. Ruiz and his staff are incredibly kind, thorough, and made sure to walk us through every step so we knew exactly what to expect. After the procedure, they kept us updated and provided very detailed aftercare instructions, which gave us a lot of peace of mind and showed us how much Benji was cared for. Not only is Dr. Ruiz an amazing veterinarian, but his team is also very welcoming and trustworthy. We’re so happy with the entire experience and would absolutely recommend this hospital for all your pet’s needs! Pricing is also great compared to other pet hospitals!

Dr. Ruiz is a phenomenal doctor. Him alongside the entire staff are all extremely helpful and will make sure your pets needs are met with utmost urgency and respect. In my case, Dr. Ruiz and his team identified issues my dog had that other facilities had failed to spot such as stage 3 kidney disease. They quickly worked up an effective treatment plan that helped stabilize my buddy and extended his life for much longer than he would have had if we had gone anywhere else. This place is also very reasonable in regard to pricing, especially compared to more corporate vet hospitals such as VCA. They also don't play around with their walk ins, I went in multiple times as a walk in and was attended within minutes, no matter how busy they were. If I could score it higher than a 5/5 I would. In my 10+ years as a pet owner, this is the best vet hospital I have been to and Dr. Ruiz is the best veterinarian I have had the pleasure of meeting. The same goes for the rest of the staff.
