Our 6-yo male diabetic Pit mix dog was in dire straits; lethargic, vomiting, not eating, glassy eyed, dehydrated. Our vet didn't have a doctor in house until after 9 am, so I was referred to Animal Medical in Copperas Cove.
GREAT facility, with INCREDIBLE staff. We were seen almost immediately, an initial treatment plan was established and priced out in detail and the consult instilled a lot of confidence in me, as did the twice a day calls from the doctor with very thorough updates.
Unfortunately, the diagnosis for our fur baby was "not good"; a perfect storm of two conditions, either of which was extremely tricky to treat, but together... well, a lingering and painful death wasn't desired, so we opted for euthanasia after almost three days of testing, diagnosis, treatment... pancreatic, diabetic and liver issues resulted in a poor prognosis.
Options for euthanasia were explained as were the costs, the staff was highly supportive of our decision and we were in hands-on attendance as we said our good-bye. The procedure was calm, quiet, respectful and our boy died knowing neither pain nor fear.
I recommend Animal Medical 110%. Read Less
