There is something you can do to increase the chances of your animal surviving a rattlesnake bite. It is called a crotox vaccine. If your dog is intrigued by rattlesnakes and you feel they are at risk, you may want to consider this precautionary step. Please be aware that this vaccine is not designed to replace treatment.

We recently moved to Fallbrook, and had to leave our long time vet behind that treated our dogs since they were born, I am forever grateful to the staff and Dr Jones at Alvarado Vet Hospital here in Fallbrook who had to do surgery on our dog Molly who tore her ACL recently, I cant begin to express my gratitude on the care and concern given to her under their care. we all know how stressful it can be when our pets get sick, their like our children, and its nice to know there is Alvarado Vet Hospital and Dr Jones there to care for them when they do. I can honestly say this is the best Vet to let care for your pets when they are in need.or just for regular checkups.

I took my dog here since its close to home and need an appointment asap since she got out of my yard and the county required a vet visit within two days of returning home. I was told she sounded like she had a huge mass in her chest and was having trouble breathing (which you couldn't see with the naked eye and she is 10 years old). The estimate they gave me was almost $600 just to see if what the problem was.
This was 2 days before Christmas so I didn't have the money since they want payment at time of procedure. I then made an appointment with another vet in town and when they examined my dog they couldn't find any signs of a mass or breathing issue. They then called Alvarado Animal Hospital and asked what they thought they heard and they said they didn't hear anything. So all I can gather is that I was lied to and they just wanted to make money that day. Very disappointed.

I'll start by saying I still think highly of Dr. Jones and his capabilities, I found him knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. What led to a mutual parting of ways weighs more in billing and what I consider business practices. It occurred a handful of times with the most recent highlighted below but I often came away with the feeling that I was leaving an unscrupulous mechanic, I understand now more than ever the impact everything is having on pricing and as a consumer I've accepted an increase.
That being said I do think that a 400% mark-up is aggregious when as a consumer I can purchase the same medication (terramycin) online for $10.99 vs $48 for the same medication from Alvarado. I hope this comes off as an objective representation of my experience as I hold no ill-will and understand that not everything is a good fit.

I've been a client for 23 years. My pets and I are treated like family. Does not recommend unnecessary procedures or products. Cares for the pets like his own. Has always gone above and beyond. I no longer live in Fallbrook and there are no shortage of vets where I live but I always drive to Fallbrook and see Dr. Jones. It's worth it!

This is an excellent Veterinary Clinic. I have had several visits with my older cat including a surgery. The staff have all been welcoming, well organized and professional. Dr Jones is highly skilled, compassionate and explains options and the course of treatment well. Although very busy, he gave me the time I needed to feel comfortable with the best decision for my Buddy.
