Went here with my dog today. My other vet closed down about a year ago and I had tried to take him to another vet after they closed, but had a horrible experience there, so because my dog was having issues, I decided to try WAH, on the referral of my sister.My 14-year old dog all of a sudden was unable to walk. His hind legs were giving out on him and I was devastated. Was thinking the worst... kidney issues, Lyme Disease, etc. I was VERY hesitant to bring him to the vet because of the last experience I had with a vet, but I knew he needed to go.I called at 8:30 this morning to see if they could see my dog and luckily, they said they could see him this afternoon... okay, good start.... brought him in and this place is busy.... we definitely had to wait, but it wasn't an outrageously long wait... someone else wrote about the 'chaos' behind the desk, and I definitely could see a lot of action and people all over there place back there. So, my dog goes into the exam room and a very young-looking woman comes in and checks him out and instantly finds that it's his 'back' that is the issue, he somehow hurt his back... (I went in there with dread, thinking they were going to tell me the worst and that he needed to be put down)... she prescribed 3 different meds for the pain and inflammation and told me to keep in touch if it gets worse. I was quite relieved.I waited only about 5 - 10 minutes for them to get the meds ready and the girl at the desk went over the dosage info. for each med. But, the bill? The bill was only $84.00 for the visit and the meds.A little over a year ago I had taken my dog to that 'other' vet when the left side of his face and jowl was all swollen on one side. The other vet checked him out and basically told me they had no idea what was wrong, threw about 5 different meds at me and charged me SEVEN HUNDRED DOLLARS!.. they also suggested I bring him in for a CAT scan and other very expensive tests at another facility... and the kicker was that they said that 'euthanasia' might have to be an option, too.... all he had was an ear infection that traveled down. Within a week, he was perfectly fine again with no help from them! I tell that story because I was very gun shy about vets after that, but I was very pleasantly surprised that this young lady seemed to know exactly what it was right away and the fact that they didn't completely screw me with the bill..... very reasonable prices.So, despite some of the bad reviews on here, I had a very good experience with them today.
