  I know that veterinarians are way overworked, so I hate to bash this place. I also don't know the name of the specific vet who was helping me and my grandfather out with our kitty, but that being said: she was completely dismissive of us and our beloved cat. We came in because our cat was having sudden hind end lameness, lethargy, and lack of appetite. The vet barely felt around her back legs before declaring it to be arthritis, and began pushing injections on us. When I asked her to look at the small hard bumps I had found on her body, the vet dismissed them as "probably a migrated micro chip". They didn't bother to scan to check, so we specifically had to ask them to check. Lo and behold - no microchips to be found. They shrugged it off and said "how peculiar" and pretty much told us to ignore them. When we pressed about the hind end lameness and how suddenly it came on, we were lectured about how cats hide pain, and injections for arthritis were pushed on us yet again (our cat was 7 years old). We then also asked for blood work to be done - which came back with elevated white blood count. This was brushed off as a standard infection and we were given antibiotics for it. After spending almost $600, we noticed no improvement in our beloved Chloe, so we took her to another vet. This vet actually listened to us, took our concerns seriously, and investigated our cats symptoms immediately. Not only did our kitty wind up having osteosarcoma (the most common bone cancer in cats) but the lumps we had pointed out were metastases. Two weeks later, our cat crossed the rainbow bridge. Bottom line: it's very hard for me to recommend this vet. Not only were their prices astronomical, but the vet acted like we were idiots, talked down to us, and repeatedly dismissed our pets symptoms. It was a busy morning there (they had said something about another vet having called out that day), but that is no reason to have received the [lack of] care we given. We will never know if a proper diagnosis would have saved our baby, or bought us more time, or if it would have played out the same. Nevertheless, we will NEVER be coming back to this clinic, or recommending it to anyone in our circle.

  I've been with this vet for several years and have had good experiences with them. They care about my animals clearly, and also do their best to make care affordable. For example, write up an outline of what needs to be done with each item's cost and explain how high of a priority each item is. (I recommend you go ahead with all the suggested treatments, though!)
