I have learned so much already! Every teacher should be able to come to an educational opportunity like this at least once per year. #lifelonglearners

Desperately seeking a same day appt for our cat this morning as she had mucus coming out her nose & discharge out her eyes due to a possible URI. After sitting in the bathroom w/her while it steamed up to help clear her congestion, I started googling various vets. None were available - including out vet who is out until 18th & possible appt w/colleague next week - I decided to give NCCH a call.

Because it was before they opened, while waiting, I decided to fill out forms online just in case they could see her today or even just this week. Very thorough questions and detailed explanation as to why they ask so many questions. Matter-of-fact, they cover pretty much everything with explanation on their website. It's a bit overwhelming but I appreciated the thoroughness of every detail as I am detailed the same way.

Once opened I called, the person that answered was very nice. I explained her symptoms and she was able to get me in today an hour and a half later. Got to the Hospital, followed their covid guidelines of calling in first, super easy. Receptionist, again really pleasant, explained she was passing me to the doctor's tech/assistant to get more info.

She was super sweet, very thorough in her questions, listened and didn't rush me, and then met me at the door for the kitty handoff. Waited for about 20m when Dr. Cody called. She was super sweet, had the breakdown of our Kitties history - stray to domesticated - which shows the tech/assistant took excellent notes & listened - Dr. Cody explains her findings, was very detailed, took time to listen to my questions or my rambling I'm sure, asked me multiple times if I had any questions for her and never rushed me.

She didn't upsell me on unnecessary additional work, on the contrary, she kept it to a minimal. Even told me she needed her glands emptied, something her normal vet hadn't mentioned. I requested she microchip our girl, which she did, and we would follow up in a week or so once done w/meds & would get her vaccinations. I felt very comfortable w/Dr. Cody & the staff and their professionalism as well as their sweet personalities.

The receptionist even took a few minutes to chat w me outside the door about our girl and how good she was and how sweet she is. I was sure the bill was going to be high being it's a cat only hospital, urgent appt, full exam w/antibiotics, gland expressing and microchip but I was shocked to find that it was not. It wasn't even $200. My last vet appt was $30 less and half the work done.

I am absolutely pleased and will continue with NCCH for all our girls medical needs. We are very picky about the Vet's we choose for our animals - 2 GSD's - as we have walked away from a few & now drive to PB for our dogs, so for me to leave here as pleased as I am says a lot. Thank you Dr. Cody & staff for taking care of our girl Penny today so last min. Hoping this good experience continues.

Dr Daly is very knowledgeable and his staff is kind and efficient. He has pointed me toward recent research when I had questions. We have been taking our "boys" to north county cat hospital for 10 years. Dr Daly always calls us to explain test results, options etc. During this pandemic we have, of course, missed the " in person" visits but I have not worried about leaving my cat outside to be picked up (they are very quick and there is nothing to stop you from waiting at a safe distance! I do that). I look forward to getting back to in person at some point.

In April of 2020, I adopted a little black cat. After about a week at home I noticed blood in his urine. I immediately took him to the vet and from there it was a whirlwind of different Vets, Specialists, Urinalysis, Urine Cultures, Bloodwork, Ultrasound imaging of bladder and kidneys, antibiotics, cat water fountains, Feliway pheromones, and finally surgery.

A year, and thousands of dollars later, my cat was still presenting with bloody urine and I didn't know what else to do. I live in Point Loma, which is about 45 minutes away from North County Cat Hospital, but I took a chance and called to see if they were able to see my cat. Brandy was patient and kind while I desperately rattled off everything that my cat had been through and she was able to squeeze us in for a same-day appt. It's COVID times, so I was not able to go inside with my cat, or meet Dr. Daly in-person, but he kept me updated and spoke for a lengthy amount of time on the phone with me about options.

He recommended an oral medication that I had never heard of, which I admit I was skeptical of since surgery, antibiotics, prednisone, and everything else other vets had suggested hadn't worked, but I had nothing to lose so I went ahead and ordered it for my cat. After an entire year of bloody urine, I am thrilled to report that my cat's urine has not shown even a drop of blood since starting the medication.

I can't even begin to explain the amount of gratitude and relief I feel towards Dr. Daly and his kind staff! I recommend Dr. Daly to every single person I know that has a cat and I wish I would have gone to North County Cat Hospital from the start. Me and my Cat could not be more thankful!

If you have cats, this is the only vet you should be going to! Dr. Daly knows exactly what he's talking about. I've gone to so many vets and have been brushed off because I have sphynx, and general vets often don't take cats as seriously. This place will take care of you and your cats as if they were their own, from a general check up, to an urgent surgery- they've got you covered. Highly recommend, the only vet I trust with my babies. You won't regret it.

North County Cat Hospital is one if the best teams in town. Thank you for all your help and knowledge, Dr. Daly!

Our cat had been treated at another Vet hospital, but she wasn't getting better. We took her to the North County Cat Hospital and now she's doing great. We couldn't be happier.

This review is sad as I had to put my cat down today. I had him for 18 years. Even though I am grieving terribly, I must say they did everything to make the process very peaceful. They were very patient with me while I cried. The vet helped me weigh all my options. I knew I could trust him as he's always been very thorough and accurate with diagnosis and treatment. The doctor and all his staff are extremely compassionate and were patient through the process.

I absolutely love Dr. Daly and his staff. I've been taking my cats to him for nearly 5 years and have had a hard time finding care that compares to his. He is always kind, understanding, patient and knowledgeable. Even though I unfortunately live too far away to take my cat to him now, he is still willing to talk to me for a couple minutes about health issues when they come up. This is invaluable to me and I can't wait to move back to the area in a few months to get my cat the BEST care again. Can't recommend enough!

I had the privilege of attending an NCCAT session this past week and I am so appreciative of this space. The staff, facilites, and meals were all top notch! The grounds are absolutely gorgeous and the level of training is incredible.

Our senior cat was recently examined for a strange growth on her front paw. Her arthritis and thyroid conditions have been carefully monitored by Dr. Daly and she (Ginger Baby) has been active and happy. Her demeanor during her exam was anything but calm. I believe she could be heard for blocks around. She is a very vocal cat who wants her way at all times and if she doesn't get it, she loudly complains.

A very good feature of this practice is the management of appointment times. This is the best. Although I have had prior vets who have given good service, often times the appointment times have been off by HOURS. Not here, appointment times are well scheduled.

I can't say enough great things about my experience with NC Cat Hospital! I really wanted a vet specializing in cats for my senior, who is scared and can become agitated under stress. Dr. Daly and his staff have been very understanding and accommodating. They definitely know how to handle her and keep her calm during exams. The rooms and waiting area are clean, my cat is handled gently, and Dr. Daly takes the time to explain what he's doing and why.

After her surgery, they were kind and patient when I'd call with questions or concerns. I can tell my cat has also had a good experience by how relaxed she was on our most recent visit :

We are new to this vet practice and so far are very happy. The Dr. took lots of time examining both of our cats and discussing treatment options and nutrition advice. One of our cats required extensive teeth removal (6) and the surgery went perfectly. The vet tech anesthesiologist explained exactly how every step of the procedure would go. We could not believe how quickly she was back to her happy, playful self!

This is not a discount provider by any means, but we appreciate such high quality, individualized care from a small office. My only complaint would be the limited office hours that are very tough for us 9 to 5ers.

I first brought my cat to VCA in Oceanside and they wanted me to spend over $1,000 right away and take my cat into surgery (extreme). I opted for a 2nd opinion after putting him on antibiotics and pain meds. I called around various vets and finally spoke to Brandy at NC Cat Hospital. She was helpful. She listened. She wasn't rude nor did she rush me off the phone.

I decided to take my baby there and the Dr. and staff were awesome. They were least concerned on getting $$ or upping the cost. My kitty did NOT need to be sedated or put under. They took the ingrown nail out and I'm sitting here with my cat who is feeling SO much better. Bottom line, I don't trust many vets and now I won't go anywhere else!

Dr Daly is terrific and caring, as is his staff. Our cat was never overly stressed, and I think it was in large part due to the fact that this is a cats only hospital. Every visit has been great.

Dr. Dally and his staff have simply been AMAZING with the care of my 15 year old Mystic! About 6 months ago Mystic was dianosed with kidney disease. She does well for a bit then goes through another cycle of low energy, lack of appitite, and constipation. Dr. Dally and his staff have been so informative and incredialy compassinate. As we all know, its difficult to watch our beloved pets struggle. Mystic is now on a regimen of pottasium, Meralax, and an anther cycle of antibiotics.

Since I dont drive due to a visin impairment, they have sent Mystic's meds through the mail. I cant begin to express my gratitude to there AMAZING patient loving individuals! THANK YOU!.Sheila MYSTIC
