I am completely disgusted with this place, I have taken all three of my dogs here for the past 5 years, and always loved them. I took my sweet baby in last week, and found out he was diabetic, has hypothyroidism and has abnormally high liver enzymes, the Dr. told me “don’t be surprised if he has liver cancer.” She said “here you go, your dog is diabetic come back in three weeks.” Well first off, they gave me a prescription to get FELINE food when he is clearly a canine. So I ...contacted Saves in Fayetteville to get the correct food, because she said feline is higher in fats and can cause more complications in diabetic dogs. While I was at Saves, she said that 6 units of insulin for a 25lb dog seemed alarming, so she told me about Karo syrup, something the vet never mentioned to me, and could Save my dogs life. So after the high bill here I took my dog to another vet for a second opinion because something as easy as saying he’s the wrong species is just careless. So I took him to a much better vet, who seemed to be more knowledgeable and they suggested a glucose curve, which is something the Dr should have did without sending my sweet baby home. So I went back today for a glucose curve and his glucose with administrating the amount of insulin I was instructed to give by the vets at HCVH my dogs blood work came back with a blood sugar level of 70 which is considered dangerous and needed to be fed to bring it back up, and changed his dosage in half and they also told me that he in fact does NOT have hypothyroidism and if I continue the medication he will have hyperthyroidism, and his liver numbers have gone down almost 200 points. Extremely disappointed and angry that this vet almost costed me my dogs life!!!!! And an extra $200 to fix what they messed up! Unprofessional. Will never return, and will warn anyone of this place. Glad my baby is in good hands. See More Read Less
