UPDATE 2/2026: We were satisfied with the care until they were unwilling to treat one of our cats without drugging him. If handled with care, he didn’t need that as proven by our last visit with Dr. Doumani. So because of that and their increase in prices, we left their care.

Previously 2025: Convenient, friendly, professional. Not the least expensive vet around, but I think $129 for a checkup and two feline vaccines is reasonable. I take both of my male cats there. Been going there for more than seven years. Update: Prices have increased quite a bit. About $247 for similar visit and two medicines. Very happy with Dr. Doumani and her assistant.

Wonderful staff and vets and they took great care of our dog suffering from vomiting and partial obstruction. Fabulous care and outcome. Thanks to Dr Baer.

Our puppy loved Dr Doumani, she gave a free consultation and answered all of our questions. The vet techs are very sweet and take the time to get to know our pet. We will be coming here for all of our baby’s needs!

Overall, great experience working with Del Mar Heights Veterinary Hospital. Dr. Doumani treated my dog many times from routine check ups to surgeries. I really appreciated her expertise, compassion, honesty, clarity, and thoroughness.

We relocated to Del Mar almost seven years ago with our two Labradors, then ages 8 and 6. After researching vets, we chose Del Mar Heights Veterinary Hospital—and we couldn’t be happier with that decision. The entire team is fantastic—friendly, compassionate, and highly skilled. They never push unnecessary procedures or treatments, which we truly appreciate.

In 2020, our 10-year-old chocolate lab was blind and had a tumor that wouldn’t stop bleeding. We knew it was time. Unfortunately, due to COVID restrictions, we had to drop her off. About 30 minutes later, the vet called and confirmed what we already knew—it was time to say goodbye. When I asked if we could be with her, they immediately made accommodations. They opened the back door for us, allowing us to spend precious moments with our sweet girl and stay with her as she crossed the rainbow bridge. Their kindness and understanding meant the world to us.

Last week, we faced another heartbreaking goodbye—our 14-year-old lab could no longer get up. When I called, they told us to come in immediately, no matter which doctor was available. Dr. Doumani, who was newer to the practice and didn’t know us, was incredibly kind, patient, and professional. She explained our options and assured us she would support whatever decision we made. While she could provide pain medication, our girl’s condition wouldn’t improve. We knew what was best for her and let her go peacefully.

The entire staff is amazing. Monica from the front desk wasn’t there when we arrived, but when she heard we were, she made a point to come in and give me a hug. She even went to the back to be with Kona while they placed her port, so she would have a familiar presence with her. Daniel, the tech—who also knew Kona—was equally kind and compassionate. He gently carried her back into the room, giving us a much-needed laugh. Kona had ripped out the initial port, and we all smiled, knowing she was going out with her signature moxie.

Losing a beloved pet is never easy, but the care, respect, and empathy from everyone at Del Mar Heights Veterinary Hospital have made these difficult moments a little more bearable. We are forever grateful for their dedication and kindness.
