(Response to Owner) That's my real name. It's not a pen name, and you know that. I will NEVER go to this place again. Their solution to everything is a vaccine. That's all they wanna do is load our dog up with vaccines. When our dog had a legitimate medical problem though, they wouldn't do anything. We got a call from Dr. Trippi the next day, who asked us to not come back and that he'd help us find another veterinarian, which he never did. He didn't care about our sweet dog. He just wanted to make an easy dollar. Appalling.

I love how caring and knowledgeable they are about my pets. They will spend as much time as you need I've never felt rushed. I have seen Dr Trippi with my one dog who has passed away. And now I'm seeing Dr Kerri and I'm very happy with both. And their prices are fair.

It was a great experience from start to finish. I consulted Four Paws regarding the neutering for my Labrador Retriever. They provided me with a date and estimate, and also put me on waiting list in case someone cancels for an early appointment. I got an earlier slot that I wanted and Four Paws scheduled it as soon as the slot became available due to a cancellation by some other customer.

The procedure was seamless and the staff communication and care was excellent from start to finish. In addition they turned out to be most cost effective as well. My dog is recovering fine and I will be going to Four Paws for my pet's future veterinary needs as well. Please keep up the good work.

My 7 month old Australian Shepherd had her Spay at Four Paws in Dublin which I traveled from Modesto. Staff very informative and helpful. Everything ran smoothly and on time and they checked on my girl even after and was able to be of help with meds. Definitely recommend them highly and Thankful. Jenny

The Four Paws Clinic was recommended by the woman that we adopted our 1 year old Kitty Regina and the experience was way beyond our expectations. The staff and the doctor were honest and insightful and she was kind enough to forgo the examination charge because I had helped saved a stray cat that she had examined and released to one of her Affiliates to see that she was returned to her home in Tennessee

The staff was friendly and I trusted the vet, who had new insights into my cat's issues. Also, the vet who was going to do teeth cleaning for my cat called first to clarify my concerns. The procedure went well and my cat recovered nicely. The clinic called me the next day to check on my cat's condition. The cost was more reasonable than my previous vet clinic. I will be bringing my other cat here for his care. I'm very happy to bring my animals to this family owned clinic based on a recommendation.

I went to Four Paws to get my puppy neutered, they were reasonably priced (half of what is charged by clinics in neighboring Pleasanton) and did a professional job. It is not easy to get appointments and like most clinics I feel they also try to make money with over priced vaccines, deworming & tick/flea medication etc.

They were super helpful in answering questions regarding my dogs trip to Hawaii and getting her microchip and rabies shot. I drove an hour from SF to come to 4 paws because of the great service they provide

I have a friend who recommended this place when I moved to the area a few years ago, and this place is amazing. Their customer service is wonderful, they treat my dog with affection and respect, and they help make him feel so comfortable when he typically hates the vet. Every single staff member I've interacted with has been kind and flexible, and they go above and beyond to give excellent care.

When our pup Bailey was diagnosed with heart worm we took her to Dr. Tripi. He was so wonderful throughout the process. He walked us through the treatment and answered our questions and emails along the way. We were so distraught and he really paid us personal attention and it meant so much to us! When she had to stay a night for treatment the lovely staff sent us emails, videos and pics of the special attention she was receiving. They really put our mind at ease. She is now heartworm free! Thank you to the entire staff (especially Dr. Tripi!) who helped get our Bailey through this mess!

Four Paws provides exactly what we need in terms of care for our two dogs. The app makes it easy to request and schedule appointments and the visits are always timely and efficient. We receive thorough direction of what to expect during and after any treatment/vaccine and do feel like the vet and vet techs care about our pets.

My dog was a patient here for the first time last week. We loved it! All the staff and the doctor was so nice and patient. My dog has been dealing with allergies and his ear was bothering him. They let us know what to do about the allergies and cleaned his ears and doctored them up. Here we are a week later and he is feeling so much better! (Thank you!)

He also needs his teeth cleaned so we'll schedule for that soon. This place was great, the staff gets 10 thumbs up and they were on time and able to get him an appointment quickly.

I can't thank the team at Four Paws Veterinary Center enough for their loving, compassionate, and honest care and communication. Over the course of our beloved dog's 13-and-a-half years of life, he saw doctors at 3 or 4 veterinary practices. We found Four Paws in early 2020 by referral from friends. Dr's Keri Smyrni and Dr. Tripi (a wife and husband team) are both caring, open, willing to work with their patients' families to find solutions that work for everyone, and responsive.

Their staff members are patient and caring as well. During his final few months, our little guy was dealing with metabolic issues that had gone beyond anyone's control. But with Four Paws, I never once felt rushed to make a decision or to end a conversation about his care, whether in person or by phone. Everyone was loving and attentive, full of encouragement and even praise for some of the non-traditional approaches I took to our pup's care regimen.

Without that love and encouragement, I'm not sure his last 3 months would have included as many smiles and happy memories as they did. Thank you, doctors. We'll be back when another furry friend joins our family one day. xoxo, Cameron Sullivan

We've got 3 cats & I've grown up with animals all my life so I've been to a lot of veterinary centers. Four Paws has given my husband and I the support we've needed to ensure that our 3 girls are healthy and well cared for. One of my biggest appreciations for Four Paws is how whenever a large/expensive procedure needs to take place, they always provide us with a couple options & provide consistent communication with cost.

All the vet technicians & vets are very friendly, have a smile on their face and always soothe the animals during their visit. We had to take one of our girls in during COViD, Four Paws has done a great job of picking up pets outside & not allowing people in. It's a stressful time for all but their open communication and willingness to talk, extensively over the phone [because we cannot go in person] was very helpful. We moved to Livermore, 4 years ago, but have not and will not find a vet closer. We appreciate their thoroughness in all they do!!

The staff is wonderful and both Keri & Chris Tripi are wonder vets! They treat you like family. I have to add Chris is a wonderful surgeon. They walk you thru everything, don’t gouge you on price and make sure you understand everything. Highly recommend!

My three girls (2 shipoos and a shorkie) have been going to Four Paws for about 5 years now and they have received nothing but the absolute best care. Friendly and very professional staff. The facilities are modern and always clean.

First time to Four Paws Veterinary Center, but not our first time with Dr. Keri as she was our vet in Tracy and has taken us years to find her again. When we got our new Saint Bernard puppy she was the vet we wanted. She is more than a business-only vet she cares about our four-legged friends and their human guardians. The team there all come across as loving what they do and genuinely care about the well-being of their patients. It truly is hard to find this type of team. Well worth the travel time to get here.

They took great care of my dog, Cricket. From the staff that checked us in to Dr.Tripi, we felt we got the best care and she is doing great now. It is so hard when a member of your family is not well and we are so grateful for the care we received. Plus I felt they were more competitively priced than our previous vet. We are happy to trust the care of Cricket to you!

I had a rabbit who was not doing to well, the vet and the staff were amazing. I could not find any vet in the area to help me out. I forgot there names because I was so hurt. But the lady at the front desk was the sweetest ever. She walked me through the process and talked to me cried with me and gave me a huge hug. The vet was awsome as well. He spent a good 5 minutes talking g to me to let me know I was making a good choice. Thank you guys for all your hard work you are amazing.

This is the best Vet clinic I've ever been to. Years of having German Shepherds and trying to find a good Vet that I could trust took years. After trying a couple in Livermore and loosing a young dog because they truly did know what they were doing. I was Told Dr. Trippi and staff were the best. It may be a bit of a drive to Dublin, but it's worth it

There are no words to express how wonderful, attentive, compassionate and friendly the doctors and staff are. My dog, Max, got diagnosed with cancer and we tried surgery and radiation but unfortunately the cancer was very aggressive and came back within 6 weeks. The hardest decision I have made in my life thus far, the team at Four Paws helped me through. They answered my numerous phone calls w much kindness and patience, answered my questions timely and treated Max and my family w lots of respect and kindness.
