In the past I have been very satisfied with the service from College Park. Today I called to let them know that the prescription they had filled for my dog was the wrong medication. It was for eyegel, filled early August. I have been giving him the gel since then. It is a small box, covered almost entirely with the prescription label. I ordered the gel for infection. They gave me the one for inflamation ($70). His infection has not improved. When I thought to check the medication and discovered the mistake, I called. The nice woman who answered the phone admitted the error and presented a fair solution. They would give me the proper medication and refund the difference. I would have been ok with that - despite the fact that my dog has had this infection longer than he should have. However, the vet said that he would not refund it because I had used it. You told me to use it. It is not up to me to check your work. He said that "Realistically the dog should have been on that medication the whole time", well, he was, and he still has an infection. He proposed that I schedule a visit Read Less

College Park Animal Hospital went above and beyond to save the life of my cat Ari. He was viciously attacked and ripped open by a dog in the neighbourhood. It was extremely serious and with diligent care he pulled through. The doctor didn’t charge for the re-checks that went on every few days for a month until he healed almost fully. The doctor promised he would do all he could to save our beautiful kitty and he kept his word. I couldn’t have afforded it if he didn’t offer his services many times at no cost. I am forever grateful for what he did for us. I highly recommend his services to people who want their animal truly cared for and put as priority. 💜 Read Less

Took my 10 week old kitten for a check up as she had been experiencing some concerning symptoms. Upon visual examination of the kitten the veterinarian on staff concluded she was fine and prescribed some medications with less than clear instructions on what symptoms exactly these prescriptions would address. Came home to my kitten dead on the floor three days later which was a very traumatizing experience. In an apparent shock I contacted the vet and was told to come to the clinic. Here, a receptionist pronounced the kitten dead while the veterinarian hid in the back out of sight. They then proceeded to charge a substantial fee to deal with the kitten's remains with out a single apology from anyone. If you care about your pet I would absolutely recommend staying away from this clinic. Don't be fooled by the comparatively low prices - you get what you pay for. Read Less
