Greedy money grabbers!
My dog suffers ear yeast infections during the warmer months. It's something that is common for him. I took him to this vets for this exact issue last year where I paid a consultation fee, a microbial sample and test and then the ear ointment on top.
Almost £200!!!
As its spring it's started again. Exact same issue, looks the same and smells the same. Unfortunately we ran out of the ointment at the end of summer, so I looked online and can get the same ointment at a QUARTER of the price this vets charge for it, however you need to have a vets prescription. So I called the vets and explained that my dog is having the same issue as last time and asked for a prescription so that I can get the ointment online.
They're happy to give me a prescription as long as I pay nearly £60 again for the 15 minute consultation (we're never in there more than 5 minutes) + the sample and tests (which if I remember correctly actually cost a lot more than the consultation fee!) only to be told he needs the same ointment again, which we already know... Another lump sum on top.
All in it's nearly £200 for an ointment I can get online for less than £15!!!
Obviously I protested this but I was told... "oh but it might not be the same issue" and "you're paying £58 for 15 minutes of a professionals time". I know my dog thank you. I'm the one who regularly cleans his ears and I don't need a greedy vet to tell me what I already know.
Absolute extortion! They are preying on the local folk whom can't travel to a cheaper vet, and in this current financial climate I find it unforgivable!
Needless to say I will be taking my business elsewhere. Vets for pets only charge £40 for a 20 minute consultation and their prescriptions are much cheaper! so that's where we'll be going in future.
Its time we boycotted these greedy companies... Northallerton is only 10 minutes away!
