If I could give this place 10 stars, I honest to God would. I don’t write many detailed reviews, but this place surpassed my expectations so greatly, that I am making sure to do my service to them in writing a glowing review.
First things first, one of my cats had started acting rather abnormally, and his state degraded to the point where my wife and I determined that he needed to be seen by a vet immediately. I called Glenway as soon as they took calls, at 7 AM; the kind woman who answered stated they unfortunately did not have an available appointment until 9:45, but once I described the severity of my cat’s symptoms, she asked me to hold, talked with one of the vets, and told me they would see him immediately.
I arrived at Glenway, and was warmly greeted by the two secretaries in the front room. I had been there no sooner than a couple of minutes, when a wonderful vet tech came out to escort me back to a waiting room. She took my cat’s vitals, wrote a symptoms description, and within a couple of minutes, the vet himself, Dr. Brian came in to see the cat. Within 30 seconds, he diagnosed a severe bladder obstruction, clearly explained how he knew, described all of the risks involved in treatment, and gave complete transparency of what would be involved logistically and financially. Based on the research I had done on possible conditions prior to bringing my cat in, everything the doc told me lined up completely, so I had no sense that I was “being taken for a ride.”
Once Dr. Brian walked out, another vet tech immediately walked in to run through a detailed estimate that gave the expected low and high financial end of providing care. Compared to what I would have expected from an emergency vet visit, the estimate was absolutely reasonable, and was nowhere close to the horror stories I had read from people who had taken an animal in for emergency care.
After leaving my cat in the clinic’s care, I have so far received not one, not two, but literally three calls from Dr. Brian himself detailing all status updates. This was wonderful for peace of mind, and he never once came across as condescending, or curt. I didn’t initially expect, nor request this level of service, so the fact that he took the time to do this made me all the more motivated to write a good review. I could tell from the noise in the background that he was busy when he called, but he still took the time to answer all questions I had, completely, without ever coming across as rushed or rude.
I am now confident that my cat will come through fine, and I couldn’t be happier with the level of service I have received from this clinic. Should your pet ever have a sudden emergency, consider this one of the first places you should visit! Read Less
