Stewart
Team Mascot
Shortly after opening VetSurg in October 2015, Dr. Holsworth and his wife Gloria went to a pet adoption fair in Santa Clarita, California. While spreading the word about VetSurg, the couple couldn’t help but notice the little dog with the big personality, who was sadly the last remaining non-adopted dog at the event. Dr. Holsworth and Gloria immediately scooped him up and welcomed him into their family.

Ammie P.
Successful TPLO on left knee. Dr and staff were all great. Not cheap, but comparable to the other surgery options. I really like that they hand you a laminated instruction sheet and email you a copy. Set you and your pet on the right path towards recovery and rehab.
Thomas W.
Took great care of our girl. Kept us well informed through her surgery and she was in great spirits when we picked her up. Glad we chose them to take care of her.

My puppy got injured and our vet recommended Vet Surg. We had a wonderful experience with their whole team. I could not be happier with our experience, our puppy's healing process, and reliability of their team. If we have any issues in the future I would not have any hesitation to go back there.
