West Main Animal Hospital

read moreWest Main Animal Hospital has proudly provided the Alhambra and surrounding communities with veterinary services since 1978. In 1977 Dr. George Wilson transformed the building, which had then been known as Coutts Plumbing, into a veterinary practice. In 1994, Dr. Laszlo A. Frics, DVM, remodeled the entire building from a 1,500-square-foot to a 3,200-square-foot animal hospital. When it came time to start my own practice, I knew that Alhambra would be a great place. Alhambra is central to the greater Los Angeles area and was a great place to be when Dr. Wilson was here, and even a greater place to be now.

We work hard to ensure that your pet's needs are always met and that they are safe and well-cared-for at all times.

This typically includes wellness exams, cat and dog vaccinations, parasite control, and dental care, but vaccinating your pet is one of the most important means of preventive care. The reason? Vaccines help strengthen the immune system so that if your pet is ever exposed to a certain virus or disease, their body can fight it off more easily. At West Main Animal Hospital in Alhambra, we want your companion to live a healthy, happy life, and we believe vaccinating them is one of the best ways to make that happen.

Laser therapy is a treatment modality that has been revolutionary in the veterinary industry, giving pet owners the opportunity to provide their pet with exceptional pain management. Pet laser therapy uses concentrated cold laser light to stimulate cells in the body. The veterinarian or veterinary technician who administers the treatment will target the specific area of the body that is causing trouble for the pet, ensuring that the cells in that area are stimulated to heal and reduce pain and swelling.

read morePet dental care is one of the most important aspects of your pet's overall health. Many pet owners do not realize this, but oral health has a direct effect on physical health. For this reason, it is so important to keep your pet's mouth healthy and clean at all times. When your pet comes in to our office for their annual wellness exam or a sick visit, we perform a nose-to-tail examination that includes the oral cavity. If a professional dog or cat teeth cleaning is recommended, we will schedule that for a separate time.
