Was recommended to go here and made mistake of taking my two dogs and cat here. I was double charged for a rabies vaccination back in June. Was not aware of it until over a month later when I decided to take my animals back to my original vet-Southgate Animal Clinic (whom I highly recommend-much less expensive) & they pointed it out to me. How come I did not get a call informing me I had a credit? In addition, while I was at Fruitville Veterinary Clinic, I ended up paying close to $500.00 for various charges. Had I agreed to everything the young vet ( recommended, I would have left there, paying close to $700-800.00.) In addition , my cat, who has never been checked for Feline Leukemia or vaccinated was supposedly given a vaccination for it. I KNOW that he was not because I distinctly remember being in exam room worrying about all the $ this visit was going to cost me and discussing it with vet and technician. The test was $52 and the vaccine was $23 plus a $2.00 biohazard disposal fee. I said I would do it when I came back (although I had no intention of going back there). Yet, on my bill, there is also a charge for a FL vaccination. Why would I agree to vaccinate my cat without a test? When I called FV Clinic today about double-billing on rabies, I was told that cat had vaccine which he did not. It is very likely that due to the mistake made with rabies, I was Β also charged for something I did not want done at that time. Woman with British accent even admitted to NOT having been in room with me, so HOW does she know anything? I would not recommend this clinic to anyone. We will spend money on our pets, no doubt, but no need to put you in the poor-house when there are other options. They also gave me an estimate for a spay that would cost me over $500 & Β a teeth cleaning on a 9lb dog that will cost $491.00 Southgate will only cost $198.00 & that includes bloodwork. Also, FV Clinic charged me $23 per dog to trim toe nails and although they did trim one dog's nails completely (front & back), they had difficulty with my little dog and were only able to trim his front nails, yet still charged me full price, even though they only trimmed the front nails because the vet (Carson) couldn't see the quick.
