So...My dog has severe allergies. The only thing that works for her is Apoquel. For the past few years, she has been on the strongest dose at 16 mg twice a day. Without it, she is miserable. She itches to the point of bleeding, she gets hot spots and her eyes weep. For a 30 day supply (60 pills), it costs nearly $200. It seems that each time we refill the prescription, the price goes up. When we refilled it on May 15th, I noticed the pills were half the size than what they normally are. I just figured it was from a different company because the bottle still said 16 mg. After about 3 days, her eyes were weeping. I took her back in to the vet, letting them know that we just spent $200 for her pills, but they didn't seem to be working, at which time the vet said my dog had an eye infection and sometimes an infection will keep the allergy medication from working. So we spent $80 for the eye prescription. The vet also said that if my dog continued to itch after the infection was gone, they would recommend an allergy shot which may or may not work. This shot would cost $120. A week after using all of the eye medication, my dog is worse and completely miserable. I didn't know what to do. I really didn't want to shell out another $120 for a shot that may our may not work. My daughter found a chart online showing the the different strengths and size of each allergy pill. According to the chart, the pills we had were 3.6 mg, which is the weakest strength. I called the vet, telling them that I think they put the wrong dose in the bottle. We brought the pills to the vet, at which time we were told that, in fact, they did fill the bottle with the weakest dose. She apologized and told me that the bottle had 15 pills left in it, but that they went ahead and put 30 in the bottle at no charge. I drove away thinking to myself...I'm never going there again. I understand people make mistakes. My feeling is that if a mistake can be rectified, than it should be! We paid $200 for 60 pills that did nothing for my dog. She was unnecessarily in distress which was the fault of the Veterinarian. So rather than give us what we paid for (60 pills at 16 mg), they gave us half, acting as though they did us a favor.

It makes me sick to see how Big Pharma has now infiltrated the veterinary industry, and tired of having tests and drugs and new products pushed on me, not to mention the hefty prices. So I searched for another new vet and found Hastings Veterinary Clinic. They were able to get us an appointment in a timely manner, even for 9 five week old pups and their mom. I was quite bedraggled when I wheeled in with these 8 pound monsters in a wheelbarrow and no leash on their mom, but I was warmly greeted. Dr Diane thoroughly examined each pup and gave mama a once over as well, all for less than $86!!! Our previous vet's cost was $15 per pup + $60 for mom for a grand total of $195, although I'm sure they would've tacked on more expenses while there. Additionally, I got no push back from neither Doc nor Tech when discussing administering vaccines and wormer ourselves as we currently tend to the majority of veterinary care, including shots, for our livestock. Doc was also willing to advise on what to use rather than spitefully leaving me to figure it out myself. So refreshing. Found our new vet!! Thanks! Read Less

They are empathetic, gentle, and wonderful at easing your worry while explaining procedures. Not to mention they are experts at obliterating cats' stank breath!We have sent numerous other friends and family here...which is a 20-30 minute drive away from home town. While there are other veterinary clinics in Red Wing *shout out to The Bluffs for also having taken wonderful care of our family pets over the years*, paws-down we will visit the Hastings clinic first due to large cost savings ...about 2/3 to 1/2 of what you pay for office visits/teeth cleaning/extractions, etc.. elsewhere. From the hand-written messages of condolence after the loss of one of our family pets to the detailed, caring, humorous messages I have received from the vets while waiting for my cat to come out of anesthesia, I can't imagine having a better experience anywhere else. ~The Nosy NorwegianSniffing out deals and pheromones of scared pets in veterinary clinic lobbies so that you don't have to.

Last two appointments I waited over 45 minutes for. With nervous rescues I can't wait that long. I understand emergencies but... Rescue owners DO NOT see Dr Diane. She claims my dog bit her (and brings it up every time I bring him in which makes me think she feels he doesn't deserve vet care) when he's never been out of my sight and kenneled when he's not in exam room.

Last two appointments I've waited over 45 minutes to see a Dr. I understand emergencies arrive but won't be returning. If you have a nervous rescue DO NOT see Dr Diane. She claims my rescue bit her and treats us like crap for adopting him. He has never been out of my sight there and is kenneled until he gets in the exam room so I know he never bit her. Read Less

"Drivin' to the Vet"(Parody of "Little Red Corvette" ~PrinceI guess he should have known by the wayI took his tote out, that he should run 'n hide'Cause he'd soon pant and cry, I guess that makes me the bad guyWe were going for a ride!We're going to the placeWith a waiting room of crittersSome are healthy and some of them illBut they are all in good hands, just need to calm their sweat glandsWhile they're waiting for their shots and pills And kitty, I am taking you to the vetMackers, you need your shots(Oh)Drivin' to the vetWe're going despite your boycottI guess I should have calmed him downWhen we drove to the place of the caged and the leashedBecause he flattened his ears when he looked all around himBoth left and right there sat some hairy beasts! The vet sized him up, I started to panicWhen he said Mack was overweight"But he's a big-boned Tomcat, sir, is he really so fat?"And he said, "Kitty, what did she give to you eat?" Oh yeah!Drivin' to the vetMack, you need your teeth cleaned(Yes, you do)Takin' you to the vetBut first you need to have your blood work screened(Oh, oh)Mackers was prepped and then was sedatedThe vet said, "Go back to work and wait.""We'll give you a call when we are done,"Scraping the tartar, then we'll let you know his tooth fate!"Hastings Vet ClinicKeeping my cat's teeth cleanHastings Vet ClinicThey let me know when we need vaccines!This clinic is rated by Consumer Checkbook as being #1 in the Southeast Metro area and #9 Β in the entire Metro area for quality and value--I can see why! My cat has been poked and prodded by several of the friendly, purrrfessional vets and vet techs at this clinic, and he and I like them all (as does my sister, whose cats also reluctantly visit this clinic). They are empathetic, gentle, and wonderful at easing your worry while explaining procedures. Not to mention they are experts at obliterating cats' stank breath!We have sent numerous other friends and family here...which is a 20-30 minute drive away from home town. While there are other veterinary clinics in Red Wing *shout out to The Bluffs for also having taken wonderful care of our family pets over the years*, paws-down we will visit the Hastings clinic first due to large cost savings ...about 2/3 to 1/2 of what you pay for office visits/teeth cleaning/extractions, etc.. elsewhere. From the hand-written messages of condolence after the loss of one of our family pets to the detailed, caring, humorous messages I have received from the vets while waiting for my cat to come out of anesthesia, I can't imagine having a better experience anywhere else. ~The Nosy NorwegianSniffing out deals and pheromones of scared pets in veterinary clinic lobbies so that you don't have to.

My boyfriend and I have two cats that are well taken care of at Hastings Vet Clinic. Every time I go there I am accepted for my appointment quickly and the vets know how to calm my cats that get nervous from all of the big dogs. The vets are patient and respectful to me and my cats. My eldest cat Loki had an eye problem and they took him in quickly and solved the problem right away. He was also scared because of the noise from the dogs and the fact that his eye hurt but the doctor was very calm and patient with Loki. I am very happy and will continue to go back.Read Less

Our family has visited this clinic for more than 15 years and always received the highest standard of care. The last couple of years we have had a few elderly pets get very ill on weekends and had to use emergency care. We have always had thorough exams and great experiences, never rushed even on ER hours. We have framed the handwritten cards we've received for the beloved pets we've lost. We will continue to recommend the outstanding care from our vets here! Read Less
