...This was my first visit with this clinic, and it was excellent. My cat had a minor scratch near her eye, and she was due for shots. I was given an appointment for the next morning, so making an appointment was easy. ...The staff was attentive, friendly and courteous from the moment I came in and right through check-out. Remember to bring your vaccination records, as you will be asked. That's a good thing. ...The facility was neat and clean. I saw no smudges on the floorboards or dust bunnies anywhere, and it smelled clean. ...The doctor was knowledgeable, but not pompous; providing a good diagnostic and treatment plan. He and the technician were gentle with my cat, making her as comfortable as a cat can be at the vet's office. I never felt they "talked down" to me. ...I did not feel pressured into treatments or testing unrelated to my visit. At the same time, they made sure to offer me the basics, just in case I hadn't thought of it. It was the right balance of being informative, without being pushy. ...I found the bill affordable, but this is not a non-profit for people down on their luck. If you don't have the funds for basic care, there are plenty of low-cost out-reach programs. You wouldn't walk into Macy's with a hard-luck story, demanding a discount, and it's not fair to do that to a vet. You go where you can afford to go. If you have the funds, this is an excellent place to pay for high-quality care. ...I have read other reviews that complain about the long wait, and I can see how that might be a problem when they get short-staffed or have too many emergencies at once. I myself got in promptly, but this is a medical facility, so be prepared to wait, depending on the situation. I could see they were already getting pretty busy on a Tuesday morning. Make sure you have no other immediate plans, don't be in a big hurry, and bring a book or something - just in case. But like I said, they got me right in. And even if they hadn't, I would have no complaints. Overall, I would recommend Town East-Galloway Animal Clinic to my friends and family, without hesitation! Read Less
