This vet really needs to re evaluate its practices. Long story short, I was out of town and the family watching my animals told me my cat was sick that evening, so I told them to take it to the vet, so happens to be this Vet. When they go to take him, he had wandered off, no sign of him. He had a microchip, so we posted lost signs, worried that he may be in danger.Well come to find out, a neighbor crazy cat lady and her daughters, found my cat and took him here to Rio Grande animal Hospital. Same place I was having my pet sitters take him.Now every vet I have ever visited in the last 3 years first thing they do is put the animal on the table, check its vitals and scans the animal for a microchip. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN. INSTED THEY WENT WITH THIS LADYS STORY WHAT EVER IT WAS, AND PUT HIM TO SLEEP WITHOUT EVEN CHECKING FOR A MICROCHIP, WHICH IS COMMON PRACTICE, WITH ANY REPUTABLE VET I HAVE VISITED.I care very much for my animals, and would of been happy to pay whatever amount to nurse them back to health.Instead, this second rate place, did not bother to verify a microchipped, which is pretty standard practice, and he was put to sleep. Awful place, I am furious, that. 3 second scan would have saved his life. Read Less
