I am surprised this is only the third awful review. We brought our puppy in last week after my girlfriend accidentally cut his nail too short during trimming. While they were cauterizing the wound he peed on the table and the vet recommended we collect a sample since it was cloudy and smelled a little off. We did, and $65 later we got a call from the vet stating that the results were "questionable". They refused to give results by phone, and stated that the only way to get the results of the test that I had already paid for was to schedule a follow up examination (surprise surprise, extra cost). This is where things started to sound suspicious, and when my girlfriend questioned the receptionist she tried to use guilt to get us to schedule a follow up appointment, implied that we did not care about our dog, and got angry with her. After consulting with other vets, I confirmed that I should receive results over the phone, and called back. After a few hours of waiting for a call back after speaking with a receptionist, the vet returned our call and confirmed my suspicions. She stated that they had found "bacteria" in his urine, and couldn't confirm whether it was good or bad bacteria; thus, the need for a follow up consultation. I don't know what kind of test I paid for, but it certainly wasn't worth doing. There is bacteria everywhere, both good and bad, and a test that can only confirm the presence of something and not figure out what it is, is absolutely useless. We will not be scheduling a follow up with this clinic, or the "recommended" bladder puncture and urine culture, and we will certainly be cancelling all of our appointments for boosters and taking our puppy elsewhere. We do not appreciate being treated like idiots, and being extorted using fear and guilt to have procedures and exams done that are clearly unnecessary. I hope this does not happen to anyone else, I got out easy with a small bill, I'm sure these unprofessional vets and con artists will get their con to work on some people and probably cost someone a lot of money but it will not be us and I hope it will not be you after reading this.Read Less
