I'm new to the area and needed to find a vet quickly as one of my cats seemed to have gotten some kind of infection on his chin. Both of my cats needed shots, too, so at 10 AM on a Saturday morning, I called Bush Lake to see if I could get an appointment. The woman who answered the phone was very nice and I got an appointment at 11:45 AM the same day. He gave both cats a physical examination and shots, then took one look at my cat's infection and immediately diagnosed feline acne (who knew?). He cleaned my cat's chin with hydrogen peroxide and administered an oral antiobotic. I asked him to check the ears, too, since my cat has really been digging at them, so the doctor took a swab and ran a quick lab and found some kind of fungal infection. He then administered ear drops, all the while giving me instruction on how to repeat it at home. He also recommended that I switch from Iams to Science Diet for male cats because of the magnesium content (and it didn't feel like an up-sell, just advice). Another recommendation was to pick up some benzol hydroxide gel for the acne.
The office is small, with only two exam rooms, and is located in a strip mall that is very easy to get to and a convenient location. The doctor was very gentle and had a good sense of humor. He was knowledgeable but not patronizing and he's very personable.
The total bill for 2 exams, 4 shots, 2 prescriptions, and lab work was $250, which I thought was very reasonable.
I am very happy to have found this place and would recommend it to everyone. Read Less
