    Whoever worked reception on 11/19/2025 at 4:30pm is incapable of doing her job with any sort of empathy and needs her position revoked. Mad because I asked the vet to call in the prescription I have waited over 24 hours for? And can’t read of a simple prescription to a pharmacist?

    Algunos doctores son muy buenos y considerados pero me ha tocado alguno que solo quiere hacer mas examenenes o dar medicinas cuando en realidad no son necesarias. En una ocasion le sacaron un diente a mi perrito que todavia no estoy segura que debieron haberlo hecho ya que no me dieron ninguna prueba de que ese procedimiento fuera necesario. Lo sigo teniendo ahi pues creo que todas las veterinarias funcionan igual.
