I have been taking my two dogs (Buddy &Luca) to Dr. Gil for years, and like most dog lovers, your dogs are your kids, so if there were ever an ounce of mistrust or dishonesty felt from Dr. Gil, I would have pulled the plug in a second. I feel that Dr. Gil is very knowledgeable in his craft/ trade and has the experience to back it up! I don't get the feeling that he is afraid of dogs, but he does have to be cautious as I assume most pets get a little weird at the vet, and sometimes do unexpected things. As I read the bad review from the lady below two things come to mind. She mentions being mis- quoted and had to yell at the front desk staff to get the quoted price. I have worked in sales and have done business with enough different types of industries to know there is a reason why they call it a quote....Yeah its called a quote or estimate because he doesn't know the exact cost at the time.. Welcome to the real world lady! Things can change, especial in unique industries like veterinary medicine. The other thing she mentioned is that they told her sister that she could be in the room, I question that for two reasons. Every time Ive gone there they have you go in the room with your dog to help hold/ calm the dog, so this sounds strange to me. The other thing is maybe there was a reason she wasn't supposed to be in there at the time. I'm no vet but i could think of a few reasons they may not want the "parent" in the room at the time (like contamination).Lastly, I feel his pricing is appropriate, and if it was too low I would question his practice all together. He's a professional that people bring their "children" to, and trust him with their life. He has a difficult job of treating patients that cant talk and tell him what wrong with them. His staff is also very friendly and have been there a while, which says a lot too. I hope this review is helpful. its rare that people write a good review for someone, its only if they have had a bad experience that they write a review. I just know that people who care more about the welfare of their pets than anything would appreciate a good review on a trusted vet.Tim Brady Read Less
