I first came to Spragg after a friend referred me when my cat, Skippy, needed tested for feline leukemia and her first round of vaccinations. It was one place that didn't require a complete exam fee to do the two things I needed done, and I was on a very tight budget. The dr who answered the phone was definitely rude and not too thrilled that I was making an appointment. And any questions I asked he seemed irritated by. I brushed this off trying to remind myself everyone has bad days. I brought Skippy back last week (about a year later) for her updated vaccinations, and because her breathing was pretty labored. He put her off until my other cat was vaccinated. He gave her a quick listen and said "yeah she's a little wheezy" and diagnosed with bordetella. Even though she's strictly indoor and my other animals aren't ill. He gave her some antibiotics and said she should be ok in a week or two and bring her back for her vaccinations then. 3 days later she was only getting worse so I took her to the vet on sunshine and they immediately did a chest X-ray. This showed the pleura space around her lungs was full of fluid and a mass pushing on her trachea. They drained her lungs and referred me to the college of vet medicine in Columbia. After an additional trip to the emergency vet and a trip to MU, Skippys feline leukemia is actually positive, and she has lymphoma. We're currently at home on palliative care. Spragg certainly did not care enough about Skippy to make sure his diagnosis was accurate. I will never go back there again and I certainly would not recommend if you actually care about your animals. Read Less

I have moved around on vets due to the inadequacies of the vet or their ridiculous office politics.  During this time I have always kept my horse vet the same, Spragg.  My husband suggested we use them for all of our 17 animals instead of trying to find another small animal vet.  Don't know why we didn't do this sooner.  They are VERY reasonable and have a no nonsense approach to vet care.  Even the older grumpy Spragg who answers the phone has grown on me.  There are no vet techs they just get it done and it the end, that is what you want.  More times than not I just drop off before work and pick up later because I know I won't leave with a bunch of questions like I did at the other vets and if it turns out I was just fretting over nothing they will certainly tell me so without running a bunch of expensive tests first.
