I went to affordable pet hospital when I first noticed that my cat was very sick. He was very bloated around his belly and did not look well. I'm new in town and hadn't had time to research a good vet yet and ended up going there because it was right down the road. After my cats exam, the male doctor recommended blood work ($200) and x-rays ($300). He said he did not recommend doing one and not the other .I decided to do the blood work first to see if he had an infection somewhere. They same doctor called the next day and told me his kidney values were high, meaning he had a kidney infection, a UTI, and was anemic. He recommended fluids every other day and gave me Clavamox, an antibiotic. My boyfriend took him in for fluids the next day and was hassled about x-rays again, even though we told them we wanted to see if the antibiotics and fluids would work first. The day after that, a random doctor who I didn't meet called me to tell me he had a UTI, which I already knew. I thought the call was pointless and strange until she recommended x-rays, again! The receptionist called me the next day and asked me if I was coming in for fluid again. I just felt harassed and like they were very eager to take my money. These are my decisions and I do not need to be pushed and bothered, especially when my kitty is sick and I'm upset. I will be finding a more caring and respectful vet to go to. Their prices are only about $10 less than a nicer vet.

This place isn't any more "affordable" than any other clinic. The receptionist and vet tech staff was friendly, but the doctor definitely was not. He was cold (to the staff, clients and pets) very hard to understand and seemed to lack any personality. Poor bedside manner. I would not recommend this place, especially for emergencies, they don't even have an x-ray machine or an official website. Edit- I don't see why a competitor would waste their time to review a clinic so new it doesn't even have said amenities, but I like how you didn't bother to address the real problem. Perhaps unsatisfied clients didn't come to you because you had the personality of a rock. Just saying, I would never come back here again.

The desk staff and doctor were very friendly and helpful. We are new to town and had a sick pet. They got us in right away and took great care of our dog. We will be back.

After relocating to New Tampa, I found Vet care for my cat was extremely over priced. True, all Vet care is costly,but I found Dr.Vonteru to be very fair in pricing. She even explained any services and provided a cost-outline prior to ordering anything on my cat. She was very thorough and caring. Not to mention the staff was the most friendly I have encountered in a long time. Even my very "aloof" cat loved them. Highly recommend!!
