2 days ago our dog got worms and not knowing what better to do...my wife decided to take her to this veterinarian. Turns out that is EXACTLY the same as throwing $180.00 into the fireplace. Instead of them saying "Oh, Petco has Over the Counter medicine that you can try for $10.00 (rated 5 stars, BTW) that begins to work in a single day, they said COME ON IN!!! Ridiculous....and $190.00. I was about to call and ask for my money back, (or $180.00 of it, anyway) but since I know that's not possible - Here is their I HATED IT review.
We only take our cats now to VCA. We've been to several vets in the area, and would only recommend VCA as a general vet practice. (We have had good experiences with other emergency centers though.) The doctors and staff here have a great bedside manner, are upfront with answers and information, and work with you on whats possible and realistic in treatment. We've had two dentals with extractions done here, a cancer diagnosis, an asthma diagnosis, and continuing care of our remaining cat. I've been pleased with the level of professionalism and knowledge in all we've had done here so far. I'm a demanding momma when it comes to my pets, and they are always willing to answer my questions, return a call, or deal with my pestering for information (which I do a lot.) I haven't found them to be any more expensive than comparable treatment in the area, then again, I wouldn't want to save a few bucks and get lesser care.
this place is the best! Dr. DeMarco is top notch, I wouldn't trust my pets with anyone else. She is very knowledgeable, caring, yet very mindful of people's wallets.
This place just wants YOUR MONEY. They don't care about the pets, they are just providing every last little treatment because they want to rack up your bill. I had two appointments within one month, and during THAT SAME MONTH, they gave me two very different possible ages for my adopted pet... couldn't narrow it down any better than that. Same month with the same pet at the same vet. Then I needed them to refill the Interceptor tablet that they already GAVE ME at the first visit. They won't give me the same pill without another appointment. Wow, imagine if everyone needed multiple appointments a year just for a very common medicine. My friend had injections and she didn't needed quarterly appointments! See, they just want your money. Finally, I had two visits there and they lost those records. They couldn't find my name, my phone number, or my dog's name. Oh and that first free visit they promise lasted about ten seconds of her just feeling and few places, and then she went right into "buy this, buy that, get these shots". Anyway, there are better and less expensive places we can all go. If it were up to them, our dogs would cost more than our children.
