  Wait was over 30-40 minutes for my 15 yr old senior dog who could barely stand. I rescheduled 2 different times, 1 first thing in morning and last appointment of day and still waited over 30 minutes so I cancelled. My first initial visit the bill was over $500 for bloodwork and antibiotics which I feel was extremely overpriced. I will not recommend them to anyone. They are more concerned with lining their pockets.

  I have taken all of my animals here for several years and never post negative reviews…but my recent experience was unacceptable. When I brought my kitten in, he had low energy, breathing at 60 breaths per minute, had lost a full pound in a week, had a 105° fever, and was visibly unwell. His bloodwork showed multiple critical abnormalities—significant anemia, extremely low platelets, abnormal white blood cell values, and indicators of systemic illness. Despite all of this, I was told that there wasn’t much cause for concern. I was also told that it was “normal” for a kitten to have a high heart rate and to show “mild signs of anemia.” These explanations were reassuring at the time, but ultimately misleading given the severity of his condition. I spent over $400 and my kitten was sent home with antibiotics, had a few shots, and was given a small amount of under the skin fluid despite the bloodwork and symptoms that reflected this was life threatening. Only a few hours later, he deteriorated further, and I had to take him to the emergency vet. The ER veterinarian reviewed the same bloodwork and immediately recognized how serious the situation was. I was told that he was in critical condition, severely dehydrated, and has roughly a 50/50 chance of survival. The ER vet was not hopeful and made it very clear that this was a life-threatening emergency just by reviewing the paperwork from my visit at Reelfoot. The difference between their assessment and the emergency vet’s assessment is deeply concerning. The warning signs were present during my appointment, both clinically and in the lab results, but were downplayed. This is extremely distressing and I feel let down. My kitten is now spending the night at the emergency vet, who is doing everything he can to keep him alive. UPDATE: After the vet retracted 20cc of fluid from his lungs, administered antivirals and antibiotics, and provided around-the-clock care for 12 hours, he still didn’t make it. Every second was critical, but by the time he finally received the level of care he needed (8 hours after my appointment at Reelfoot), it was too late.
