Boulevard Pet Hospital Castro Valley, California

Was a great experience, wonderful staff, assistants and doctor, easy to get to.

Great place my cat jonnie boy luvs Pam even gave her kisses

I am so thankful for Dr. Judge and the amazing staff at Boulevard pet hospital. I have an unusual pet who was sick, no other vet would see him. I am so grateful that I can have the peace of mind knowing my baby has somewhere I can take him for his medical needs. Thank you for welcoming us. Cinco and I are so delighted to have found you!

Absolutely horrible!!!!! I wouldn't recommend you take your animal here! The vet is completely unprofessional and does not give proper care...nor check to see if your pet is doing ok....nor return phone calls! He got on the phone to yell at me for pursuing to speak to him because my animal has pneumonia and is only 2 weeks old.....he was avoiding me each time I called. Now he refuses service to me and my animal is still very sick under his care......I would highly recommend you go elsewhere if you care about good service and proper care for your beloved animals.

Very nice employees and great doctor. Professional.

-5 rating is too good for this guy! This so-called Vet, Harinder Judge, IS THE RUDEST PERSON EVER. I am so upset at how he spoke to me. DO NOT GO THERE. He has NO COMPASSION. The guy has issues! People like him should be banned from working with the public, let alone our pets! Shame on him and his awful, despicable attitude! I contacted the BBB and in turn tried to contact Harinder Judge but he never acknowledged them. The BBB is not a government agency, unfortunately they cannot force a business to respond.  In my opinion this Harinder Judge is arrogant and very cocky.

The way he treated one of his customers turned my stomach. I am not going to ever come back and I suggest anyone of color to do the same if you want to be treated with dignity. This man is out of control rude. Go somewhere else because it’s not worth spending a penny with this office.

I am so grateful for this place. I took my Cat Daisy here and they fixed her up. For a decent price. Another place wanted like almost 10,000. Then they wanted me to put her to sleep. This place helped her and never once said put her to sleep. They are a lifesaver! ????????

They are a great place for reptile parents.

Our puppy was due for a 2nd dose of a vaccination today and Boulevard Pet Hospital decided to cancel our appointment without notifying us due to a 1-star review left by my wife nearly 2 weeks ago for a misunderstanding for a specialist charge. While I personally did not believe that the misunderstanding warranted a 1-star review, this retaliatory behavior is beyond reprehensible, not to mention childish. Not only were we not informed of the cancellation, we were told upon arrival that Boulevard Pet Hospital will no longer be able to see our puppy due to the review. Their staff was also left hanging without a proper explanation - only able to tell us they weren't in the office in the previous few days so they don't know what's really going on. While this experience in of itself was troubling, there have been a couple other concerning things I've noticed during previous visits to their pet hospital: 1) Their vets are very condescending to their staff - borderline misogynistic - on more than one occasion, I've seen their male vets tell their female staff that "they should only speak when their opinion is asked of them" 2) While the original issue that my wife took with them was a miscommunication, I wonder what sort of margins they take on "specialist" charges. In subsequent calls - they've deliberately pulled on emotional and moral strings to get us to bring our puppy in for additional treatment, stating "you want to be the best parent for your dog right?" and suggesting "you don't want your dog to have poor quality of life because you didn't bring her in" At the end of the day, both our and our puppy's quality of life will be just fine without your services and I hope anyone looking to take their pet to Boulevard Pet Hospital takes a second look.

Everyone was friendly and helpful, although they were very rushed and nothing stood out that was exceptional. Extremely hard to find and in the end... it shares a parking entrance with a gas station, which is odd, but parking wasn't too bad.

The whole staff were both gentle with my pet and courteous with me. Made Adam very comfortable

We took our puppy to check on her leg after she has a small accident.The vet charged us $180 just for consulting fee (to call a specialist to check on her x-ray) without communicating with us this is the extra cost. We only found out after that actually costs money. No one explained to us when they charged us.Then the vet also told us that she needs. It will cost extra $300 and get it changed every 2-3 weeks. We chose not listen to the vet and not getting the splint. Our puppy is totally fine and run normally after 2 days. I understand the urge to make money, but using the animal is definitely not ethical.

I was worried when the change of ownership happened bud dr judge and his staff are extraordinary and very caring. My pets and my family love coming here even when the circumstances arnt ideal.

Nice staff, always good service.

If I could give this place ZERO stars. I would. I called to ask if they can trim my bird wings and they said that I needed to make an exam first. I told them my bird was healthy and I ONLY wanted her feathers trimmed. Anyway, I ended up taking her there. Not only did they charge me $85 for the exam. $35 for nail trim (that I didn’t even ask) and $35 for feather trim. They took our bird away from us and so we didn’t get to see what exactly they did to her. This is the first ver that I come across that take the animals away to do the services. Really? Why couldn’t we be there? We just heard her screaming and scared. She was so scared when they brought her back to me. DON’T BRING YOUR PET HERE if you love him/her. They have no mercy for animals. They just want your money.

This is truly a home for animals. The doctors of pets and staff care. It's not just about the money. My cat is really sick and they gave me everything I need to help my pet. I have a Farrell cat and it's like they gave it another chance. This place is trusted.

They are rude. I would give them zero star! Don't go there! there are many way better pet hospitals in the bay area. When I tried to schedule an appointment for my cat, they sent me an email like this way with capital letters : You DON'T pick the time, we PICK for you. the process take 5mins but you MUST be available from 9:00AM-12:30PM.

Very friendly staff!! Treat my babies like their own. Expensive. $28 for a nail trim. That's double what the groomer charges. Used to be $15.

Dr. R is the best! She communicate well with you.

When Dr. Judge started and took over the practice it is all about how high the price you are willing to pay. He is not compassionate or considerate of time. When he took over he will take your animal and do what ever then bring it back to you and charge $200. I like to see and know what you are doing to my pet. I highly recommend finding a better vet. One who is more concerned about the life of your pet and not the expense... he is a RIP off They sent me a reminder for a return visit. I called and the receptionist told me I can not receive services there???? Ok, that’s fair... could you please stop sending the reminder cards!

Nothing but the best care!

Our fave. Cool peeps. Dr. Schuman rules. (Bad spelling-sorry) Actually care about our critters.

If I could zero stars, I would. I'm not sure who was worse, both receptionists or Dr. Judge. I am so disappointed in their attitudes and service. His receptionist threw my prescription at me because she was upset that she couldn't do HER own job correctly! Judge yelled at me on the phone and told me to go somewhere else because I was trying to explain how rude his employees were. PLEASE DO NOT TAKE YOUR ANIMALS TO SEE DR JUDGE. He doesn't care about the animals at all!!

Great place to take your pets

Very friendly and gives good advice/ information on animals.

I first went to Boulevard while working with a rescue group. At the time, we would take our foster kittens to any vet that could treat them. Boulevard Pet Hospital has a very caring staff. I have been taking my pets here for 7 years and have always received quality care from the vets. I refer others to them often. They do not high pressure you into getting unnecessary treatments or special tests.

Great place to take your pets they are honest dr. Schuchmann is the best and good staff

It was just great the people there are so nice and they take such good care of our animals we have lots of cats and a tiny new puppy and they were just so gentle and so good the prices aren't that bad either

Called all the Vets in Fremont and Newark and everyone said sorry we can’t see your dog. This hospital was awesome and took my Senior dog right away. Thank you Doctor Schuchman finally someone who is not looking to make a boat payment. He truly loves animals. You and your team Rock. ????????
