Studio City Animal Hospital

If you love your pet, please do not take it to this Hospital

Following an extensive investigation, the California Veterinary Board issued Citation #2658-C against Dr. Clyde Pitts, Owner of Studio City Animal Hospital. Dr. Pitts was cited and fined based on findings of 4 counts of Negligence and 8 Violations of Record Keeping, which, according to CA Title 16, Section 2043, "involve a person, who, while engaged in the practice of veterinary medicine has caused death or serious harm to an animal patient." I believe these findings are serious and disturbing, and call into question Dr. Pitts' competency, professionalism, and ability to continue running a Veterinary practice.

My case was so severely mishandled that it resulted in the death of my beloved cat. To make matters worse, Dr. Pitts will not acknowledge any wrongdoing, based upon his refusal to respond to the Veterinary Board's request of him to address their finding. It is incumbent upon a business to which consumers entrust their pets for medical care to provide the highest level of professionalism and competency. My case is definitive proof that these standards were seriously not in keeping with the guidelines set forth by the State.
