Darling Veterinary Clinic Chico, California

Dr. Gary is such a sweet man with a great staff that genuinely cares and knows their stuff!

Great staff! Dr. Darling is very knowledgeable and at the same time, conscientious to need our pets and of course to their hoomans. They do not over charge, unlike other clinics out there.

Could not see my Little for a month or so. They took care of my Pig Pignelope before the Camp Fire. She didn't make it. RIP Pignelope.

The vet Dr. Darling came and gave our horse shots , he was very nice and professional. I would recommend him for a vet.

We love Dr Darling! I trust him with all of my animals.

Always the best....Dr Darling and staff are extremely efficient and professional always.

Great vet and office staff!!!!

I took my puppy to Dr. Darling today. He and his staff are all so kind and professional. Dr. Darling was incredible with my pup. He was also very informative for first timers like myself! I highly recommend this office.

Dr. Darling is quite possibly the best Veterinarian in town. His love for all animals is evident in his manner, voice, etc... The staff is also ABSOLUTELY top notch!

Dr Darling and his staff are so warm, welcoming, and loving. You immediately feel part of the Darling family when you walk through the door!

Great experience! Loved the staff.

Dr. Darling is the best you can get! Welcoming & full of love for your pets!

This place is amazing! The staff is incredible! The prices can't be best, seriously. The veterinarian is very nice and the whole experience for us has been wonderful. We've been going here for 3 years now and I'm very happy. The other vets office that we went to, even with an appt, was well over an hour sometimes and their prices were 3 times as expensive. The care and knowledge is top notch! I have always felt that my pup has been loved here and I will never go anywhere else.

Dr Darling is the best

Dr. Darling is a superb vet. First, he developed an immediate bond with my dog. It was really uncanny. Next, he diagnosed a complex problem and treated appropriately. Recently, his treatment of two difficult dog problems is going well. His staff is efficient, personable and user friendly. The charges are very reasonable. I highly recommend this clinic, and Dr. Darling.

Absolutely the best Vet in Northern California. Dr Darling is amazing. He takes his time to thoroughly explain everything going on. His love for animals is second to none. I highly recommend him to all my friends with pets.

Great Vet! Doesn't overcharge or make you pay for a bunch of extra stuff. Knowledge and friendly!

Great Vet, we couldn't be happier.

Excellent experience with this vet. He was personable, patient and took his time with us. Helped us with our cat prior to traveling across country with him. Would definitely return if we hadn't moved.

Great place for all your pet needs

The most caring vet I've ever met .

I was really hopeful about this place based on the good reviews I saw. However, when I actually went, I was disappointed. The vet spoke incredibly fast and seemed to have a lot of nervous energy. It was hard to have a normal conversation, I felt very rushed. I had to really push and interrupt to get my questions answered, and realized after I left that I had at least one question that has gone unanswered. He wasted a lot of time telling me things I already know, like that stomatitis is a condition that you manage, not cure. (Duh.) Also, one of the main reasons I went was to inquire about drug interactions including with CBD oil for managing my cat's pain, and he was not able to speak to this. He said this is all very new, research is still being done etc etc, which I realize, but I could tell he hasn't really taken time to look into the research that *is* available on this topic, despite a flyer about CBD for pets being up in the lobby. He also upsold me on a Convenia injection which I wish I hadn't done. He said he'd get me a correct dose for my cat for Zyrtec, but forgot to do so. Lastly the price for both the exam and the lab work was just a bit more than other places. If I had felt that the quality of care was worth the difference, that would be fine, but since I didn't, I guess I am back to square one in finding a good veterinarian I feel comfortable with in town.

Our long time Vet relocated due to the Paradise Camp Fire but THANKFULLY recommended Dr. Darling!! He is SUCH an AMAZING man! Such a kind, empathetic, knowledgeable compassionate vet and his staff mirrors him. BEYOND thrilled he will be our fur babies new doc! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DARLING VETERANARY ❣❣❣❣❣

Dr. Darling and staff are amazing. Very knowledgeable and fair prices

My appt is in about 2 weeks? I was referred to him. Heard nothing but good things about them!

Dr. Darling is the nicest, most genuine, empathetic vet I have ever taken a pet to. He is extremely knowledgeable and experienced. He truly cares about his patients and understands how hard it is when we have to make difficult decisions for our fur babies. He also does everything he can to keep costs at a minimum. 10/10!

Dr Darling is the only vet I trust. I've been going to him for years and always trust him. He's so gentle and nice to my pets.

Dr. Darling treats your animals like his own, is fairly priced, and all the staff is so nice and willing to help and full of information. They also have an option to go in to your home which is so nice. My dog came out happy as if we just visited her friend, not scared that she just went to the vet never wanting to go back even though she got all her vaccinations, they are the best :-)

Dr. Darling is the sweetest vet

We just moved to Chico from the bay area. SO glad to find Dr. Darling and his friendly staff for our dog. This is one of those special places that everyone wants to find for their animals.
