WOW..we had a very different and bad experience with this clinic.We called explained what was going on,that we only had limited funds.The lady at the desk assured us it would be ok.I had 230.00 When we got our dog there,we took him into the room,explained what was happening,that we do not have the funds to cover a huge bill,to please do what he could to fix the problem.Our dog could not stand or sit up,he kept falling over,the vet brought a saline bag in and stuck it in the back of his neck just under the skin.The back part of his neck blew up like a balloon and the saline went no where,my dog then went #2 all over the bed and smelt like death.The vet said the initial visit will cost 200(for the after hrs cost), I almost had a heart attack because that is not what was told to us.I asked him to please help where he could,he worked something out to have the x-ray done which showed grape like things in his stomach,all he said was he ingested something,which we knew was not the case,he was a very very picky dog.The vet then wanted to us to pay around $2000.00(he stated it would cost close to this amount) to keep the dog overnight and pump him full of anti-biotics but this would only cover the cost of him staying,not anything else,well of course i got angry.I said can you do something to try and help him now.He injected him with 2 anti-biotics,then gave me 2 of each anti-biotic in pill form.He told me to take him home and in 12 hrs give him one of each pill,that when we woke up in the morning,he will be running around like he wasnt sick.It ended up costing 296.00,i had to borrow the money.
What i am angry about is,he told us he would be ok by morning ,he died less that 2 hrs after we got him home.The fact that he tried to push all these extra costs on us did not sit well either.If he had said he was going to pass,it would have been better than telling my family he will be ok and then die not long after.He also gave me 2 cans of some special kind of dog food in small like cat tins,said no cost but was charged 5.00 for each can.
I found this man without a care in the world for the animal,he was not gentle with him and he was matter of fact attitude about the cost.He knew he would die and just tried to get what he could.I spoke to 2 other vets about it,and described what the x-rays showed.Both said it sounded like it could have been cancer or something like it if that is the only spot they appeared,it was a full body x-ray and they only showed all through his stomach.
Idk..no one knows for sure what he died of,all i know is,he had a lousy bed side manner and lied. I do know of 2 other people with the similar things happen with their animals and both dieing after being given some antibiotics by this same vet. I will never trust this vet again. Read Less
