I was so excited to find a holistically minded veterinary clinic, but THIS is not what I was hoping for. The visit started off well. The front desk people were sweet, I loved the vet tech, but all of that changed when I got to meet with Dr. Landon. I will say that she was dealing with an emergency, so I can't blame her for not being a ray of sunshine. But I have never met a vet who had so many negative things to say, or who was so incredibly snippy with me. The visit started off with "did you know this food has been recalled?" to which I replied "yes." I feed a controversial raw diet, so I am used to this conversation, and my dog food provider has sent several emails on this recall. This continued into "I don't think her diet is working for her" to which I replied "I typically don't talk about her diet with veterinarians because it's usually met with resistance, and I am happy with what I feed her", and she snapped back "well at least give her an omega 3."She softened a bit later, and said that this vet "supports all diets, as long as they are well balanced" but sent me off with a list of kibbles, with raw food as an option later down the list, which leads me to believe she merely tolerates working at a holistic vet, but doesn't actually follow this school of thought. She made snippy comments about the breeder "missing the mark" on my dog (sadly she's a little inbred and came from a bad situation), that her eyesight needs to be looked at and she probably can't see well out of one eye, that she's at 80% more susceptible to breast cancer because she's not spayed (which I didn't know, so it was helpful information, but the delivery was defensive and rude), that her hips are messed up, that she would gain weight if she was spayed (again, another controversial topic I avoid)...etc. It was just one negative thing after another after another, with rude delivery and hostility. I politely said thank you and didn't push back, but I will not be back here. On to the next vet... Read Less
