Though I believe that the veterinarians have the best intentions, I was not a fan of being charged for a second consultation for an issue that was overlooked on our first visit. On our first visit, an ear issue was not paid close attention to and over two days the issue got worse. I called to see the vet, but she was not available so they scheduled me with a different vet. She did not do a scrape of the ears because she was afraid of my dog's ears bleeding, which is understandable, but I think we could have found out a little more with a minor scraping. When I left to pay for our second visit, I was charged the full consultation fee plus the meds. In two days, I paid $300 to see two different vets and to get the medication. Fast forward to me getting my dog groomed a week later (ear issue still not resolved) and the groomer took off the scabs. No bleeding. Dog's ear issues are resolving. I should have told the young lady at the desk not to charge me for my second visit since it was overlooked on the first visit, but I was in a hurry and I did not want to argue. I really did not appreciate being double charged for an issue that should have been addressed on our first visit. The first vet seemed to be in a hurry to go on vacation and kept calling my dog a she when he is male. I am all about attention to detail and while the facility is very clean, and I think that the vets do care genuinely care for animals, I am on the fence about whether I would take my dog back. Also, one of the young women behind the desk told me that my dog's blood work came back negative, however we did not have blood work done. I informed the woman that we did not have blood work done and she repeated the results to me. I then told her again that we did not have blood work done and she then realized that she was talking to the wrong pet owner. She seemed unfazed by the fact that she was divulging information to the wrong clients. She also thought that Spain was part of the UK, but that's a whole other story. Overall, unfortunately, I don't think that we had the best experience. I really wanted this to be our NYC veterinary care facility, but I think we will have to go elsewhere, especially if we are being charged double for issues that should have been addressed in the first visit.
