Lido Animal Hospital

Gratitude post! I’ve had animal family members my entire life and moved around quite a bit searching for the best veterinary care. I am beyond grateful to have landed at Lido Animal Hospital about 10 ten years ago. Thank you to the entire team in the front and back for their incredible work, heart and genuine consideration across the board. Could not hold a vet in any higher regard.

Dan and his whole staff are sooo amazing. My dog has so many allergie issues and they take the very best care of my baby. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a vet that treats your animale like a part of their family just as much as you do.

Dr. Earl has been my fur babies Doctor since 2013. Dan, Erin, Susie, Joe, and the rest of Dr. Earl's crew are amazing. I think that it's so sweet how, when people arrive with their fur babies, Dr. Earl will get down on the floor with a majority of the dogs/cats to make them feel more comfortable, at ease, and loved. Everyone is very professional, super friendly, thorough, expedient, knowledgeable, honest, forthcoming, reliable, compassionate, and every time I visit all I've seen are huge smiles on everyone's faces. I moved back to Huntington Beach in 2015 and still drive to Newport Beach just to see Dr. Earl as my Veterinarian. I have come to know and appreciate Dan, Susie, and Erin over these past 7 years and continue to recommend Dr. Earl and his awesome crew to everyone I know. Thank you all for making my babies and I feel super special all of these years.

I've had first hand experience with Dr. Earl and his team for several years now. I was originally introduced by close friends who have used him, and I feel like it's the best decision I've made for our pets to date.

Dr. Earl and his team really, and truly go above and beyond to take care of our pets, and you can see it from the moment we first walked through the door. There's a reason they're often busy, and it's simply because they show the same care and love to our animals as we do, which is why I will not trust anyone else to care for our pet's medical needs.

I was apprehensive when I first went in, as I've had bad experiences with other veterinarians, up charging us and not giving us much time during the appointment, throwing incorrect diagnoses on our past pets, and overall causing more stress than good when we had left. This is not my experience with Lido Animal Hospital.

I still remember our first appointment years ago, Dr. Earl came out to the waiting room and got down on the floor with our dog until our little guy was comfortable enough to go back to the exam room with him- Dr. Earl really does care about our dogs being comfortable and happy.

His team must be mentioned - he has clearly hand selected a team of warm, hard working, and kind staff who are always attentive, caring, and willing to go the extra mile for their patients.

If you're on the fence about finding a vet for your dog consider this:
The entire staff shows genuine care and love for your pets as if they are your own, and at the end of the day, they know what they are doing, without breaking the bank. Sometimes I wish my own doctor was as thorough and funny as Dr. Earl and his team!

I'm forever grateful for Dr. Earl and his team, and cannot recommend them enough to anyone looking for a vet for their fur children.

Dr. Earl diagnosed our German Shepard's bacterial infection in his colon and put him on an antibiotic treatment plan that is having a quick and healthful effect on him. He is feeling much better already. Dr. Earl is loving and caring in his interaction with our dog. We give our highest rating to the Lido Animal Hospital.

Dr. Earl and his entire staff are just incredible. We wouldn’t go to anyone else to receive care for our kitties.This is a team that is not only brilliantly skilled at what they do, but they care so much about their patients in every way. You can feel the love and empathy from every member of the staff. We count ourselves very lucky to have Dr. Earl as our Vet. It gives us a huge peace of mind to know that our fur babies are always in the best of hands.

We love Dr. Earl and the entire staff at Lido Animal Hospital. They are extremely friendly, helpful and prompt with appointments. Dr. Earl is super knowledgeable and we fully trust his judgment when it comes to making decisions about our puppy's care. They go above and beyond to answer all your questions. Our little guy even got into a box of raisins and they helped us figure out what to do to make sure he had the best, most prompt care. 5 stars for sure!

Dr. Earl and the entire staff at Lido Animal Hospital is simply amazing! They’re caring, patient and compassionate! I brought in my sick elderly Pom Sebastian in hopes they could save him. He was very ill with a blockage and at his old age surgery would have probably not been a good option. Dr. Earl never gave up on him and before I could make the difficult decision to have him go to sleep, he suggested we try one more thing to save him! It worked!! I’m so thankful for what the staff all did to save our little Sebastian! Thank you guys!

I cannot express how thankful we are to have Lido Animal Clinic for our pets. They helped to keep the great quality of life going for our 15 year old Golden right up to the end. Our young puppy loves to visit them, too. The staff is caring and friendly. Dr. Earl had come down to our business to give our older dog her shots. She LOVED going to see Dr. Earl and his staff. His staff is genuinely invested in your pet (many tears were shed when it was finally time for our golden). Our animals will always be under the care of Dr. Earl, Laura, Erin, Dan, Nick, and Suzanne! Thank you all!!

I've been taking our pets here for 5+ years and love the entire staff. They are ethical, honest, and genuinely do their very best to make you and your pets welcome while providing the best care possible. The staff has been there for years as well, and Dr. Earl has a way with animals that I've not seen before. We had a senior dog with several issues and his care was well managed, and the normal things like vaccinations in our healthier, younger pets are a breeze. Going to the vet doesn't seem like a chore. I highly recommend them.

I used to think it was tough to bring in my Big Furry Baby to the Vet, Changing to Lido Animal Hospital - Made vet visits easy. Daniel, Erin and Dr Earl - always exceed expectations. Whether the visit is routine or Hannah is injured or sick - It's easy. Daniel knows how to comfort and examine Hannah for every situation. I'm stupefied how he earned her 140lb trust - after all we've been through. It's magical. Dr. Earl always gives you the data - is right - and lets you decide - he doesn't just throw antibiotics at you. He also discusses cost and realistic expectations. Honest and open discussions for ACCURATE diagnoses. Erin is so sweet, fast, gets you in and out, helps with insurance, communication (in case you miss instructions). I'm always more stressed than my dog. If you have any other Veterinarian - you should seriously consider changing to LIdo Animal Hospital. They have every aspect of your experience and furry family care coverage - covered beyond your expectations.

Incredible Vet! A great experience for both our dog and us! Dr. Earl will come out and visit with our Grace (Weimaraner) and as he is saying Hello he is also running his hands all over her for a very through physical exam while Grace is comfy on the floor and not shivering and balanced on some steel table! That counts for a lot with us because the other Vets we have seen can't be bothered to get down to her level - ever!
Dr. Earl is intuitive and knowledgeable about Grace's allergies and skin conditions and has made Grace very comfortable. He has properly diagnosed all of her "conditions" and we have been able to implement them and improve her quality of life. We will be clients forever!
The staff is highly attentive and make Grace very comfortable while she is being treated and they are all very patient with us and do not make us feel like idiots for asking over and over again what is going on with our dog and what everything means.
Some people have given the same talk about cleaning a dog's ears a 100 times and they let you know in a monotone way how to do it. The staff here understands that it is the first time we have heard it and they are talk to us kindly and understand that we are trying to learn and do it properly and they really try to help us.
The prices are very reasonable - there is even a Senior Discount available that we take advantage of!
There are parking meters on the street of the office and they are very conscious about offering to pay and put the quarters in for us. They have a lot of local resources for pet needs and that's very helpful for us.
We really feel that you will be happy with your visit to Dr. Earl! 5 Stars all the way!!!

A visit to Lido Animal Hospital is always a great experience. The entire staff goes out of their way to make my cats and me feel comfortable. Dr. Earl obviously loves animals, as do everyone who works there. They try very hard to keep costs down, while providing the best medical care.

The first time I brought my dog in Dr. Earl came and sat on the floor to meet her. From that point on I knew we found the perfect Vet. Dr. Earl and his team are amazing... you can tell how much they love animals.

I would highly recommend Lido Animal Hospital to anyone that wants their pet to treated with love and compassion.

The medical profession could learn a lot from Dr. Earl and his wonderful staff on the etiquette of treating patients with kindness and respect. Of course, the patients in this case are our wonderful canine and feline companions.

We have a 14-year old black Lab and every time I take Molly into Lido Animal Hospital, she is greeted like a long-lost friend. The staff behind the counter and behind the scenes are welcoming and friendly, and Dr. Earl often comes out to sit on the floor with Molly. It is very heartwarming to see a vet and his staff be so committed to their profession in the basic understanding of dignity to a living creature experiencing some form of upset.

Dr. Earl and Daniel are wonderful- they take so much time getting to know our pets AND us- and were such a comfort when we had to put our lovely golden down. They made Monty's last hours very special. Along the years, I have taken my furry babies to several vets, and no one is even close to offering what this office provides. Plus, Dr. Earl now participates in the West Newport 4th of July community event, proving that he truly cares and is part of our neighborhood.

Love Dr. Earl and his wonderful staff. They treat you and your animal companion(s) like family compared to most vets who treat you like an assembly line item. Prices are very reasonable too! My companion loves Dr. Earl, as do we! :)

I was so impressed. This was our 1st visit here. My cat had previous respiratory problems brought on by his previous vet. When I told Dr Earl what happened he immediately knew what the problem was, and that they have given him feline herpes! And better yet, the treatment perscribed helped him immensely on day 1. Also, they dont wear white coats, which turns out scares your animals (the only time they see the vet he or she is wearing the white coat). But what I liked the best is he examined my cat while he was sitting in my lap. He never had to go up on the table. Great experience, considering it's still the vet.

Dr. Earl and his staff are all TOP NOTCH!! From Laura and Erin in reception, to Susie, Dan and the other kid (sorry kid... I don't remember your name).

Our boys have been clients of Dr. Earl from since when he was at Antonio Animal Hospital in RSM (over 7 years ago). We live in Dana Point and so we have plenty of vets to choose from. We will follow Dr. Earl anywhere!

Dr. Earl and his staff all truly LOVE animals. They are not there to just collect a paycheck and leave 8 hours later. They know and understand that our pets are our fur-babies and they treat them as if they were one of their own fur-babies.

I was aghast when I read the '1 star' review. This does not describe Dr. Earl, or his staff, AT ALL! When our boys get treatments, we are invited back into the exam room. When they have to describe something medically that's going on with the boys, they don't talk to us like complete idiots, nor is it so technical that we don't understand.

Dr Earl's fees are reasonable and on-par with other vets in the area.

I don't know what more I can say that hasn't already been said in other reviews.

So, go see Dr. Earl, your pets will thank you for it.

Words can't explain how thankful I am to have been recommended the Lido Animal Hospital by a friend. Dr. Earl and his veterinary staff are one of a kind... my dog seriously gets so excited to go see them! Thank you for everything all of you have done for Rocco and I over the past several years. I couldn't imagine taking my fur baby anywhere else, and will continue to recommend the Lido Animal Hospital to everyone I can. Thank you Dr. Earl and staff! - Kristin and Rocco
