I'm so glad I found this clinic, and crying as I write this review! Just took my sweetest baby to Dr. Kerr this morning after she stopped eating. I had little hope, as I know she has terminal kidney failure. I was given such amazing reviews of him by my employer and her neighbor who said he was THE BEST. Well they weren't lying. Initially I had taken my girl to Viscaya Prado, which were the rudest, most uncaring and unprofessional people I've ever dealt with. After giving me the news of her results, they didn't give me any options for home care, except some antibiotics and a bunk phosphate binder. Which I found out today they told me the WRONG way to administer the binder to her. So it was doing nothing to help her for nearly 2 months. After googling for weeks, and thinking I was doing the right thing, she stopped eating. Not wanting to wait it out, as animals with this condition cannot afford for you to wait, I called Dr. Kerr's office first thing this morning and asked if there was any chance of me getting in. The receptionist put me on hold to ask the Dr. as he had several surgeries scheduled later in the morning. But he said I could come in! He was extremely caring, so much so that I was literally in shock. He didn't sugar coat anything and gave it to me straight. My dog is terminal and at the worse spectrum of her disease. However there are several options for treatment I can do at home. His awesome tech's showed me how to administer fluids. They gave me several meds to help her feel better. Also told me to start her on prescription diet and get an otc phosphate binder that I can literally get at Walgreens. I know that with this diagnosis the outcome is bleak, but now I have at least a small glimmer of hope that my baby will, at the very least, start feeling a little bit better. Anyhow, that is my two cents about this animal hospital. They are the MOST amazing, and I've been to several of the so called "best in town". I made an appointment to bring my other two girls to see him Monday. They will be seeing a lot more of me in the future :) Thank you SO much everybody! Read Less
