Almost killed my cat. When I went in after a routine procedure with complaints of odd behavior (that i now know to be red flags for what had happened to my cat) it was not taken very seriously and a bogus diagnosis was given to me that already did not make sense given the time frame. As time passed and still only decline was seen, my suspicion was confirmed that something extremely wrong with my cat. Upon seeing another vet who took one look at the recent records and immediately knew what had happened I was furious that RRAH had fed me that false story. I cannot believe that with as much veterinary experience that is claimed by this vet, the symptoms exhibited were not recognized as the true problem, or maybe they were and realizing the mistake on their part, fed me some BS. My cat was extremely over medicated, especially for the procedure, and now has irreversible neurological damage and needs pills twice a day to keep from walking around and falling down like she is drunk, among other lack of function and seizures. The pills help to an extent but she is only getting worse and the meds that currently reduce her symptoms will need to be increased as she declines. I hope you learn from my experience that this is not the place to bring an animal that is part of your family.
Love this place and so does our dog. Dr.Snyder is caring, and is actually interested in you and your pet, you are not just a # like at the big box pet stores. I like how they also take a picture of your pet and post the picture on the wall in the office to show the new dogs/cats. With a new puppy i had a lot of questions from food, shots etc not only did Dr.Snyder answer all of them she also gave great advice and insight. Great facility, very clean, warm and inviting and the front desk staff are great as well. If you are looking for a great place to take your pet this is it.
We've had our pet (medium dog) for just about 6 months and she's been to see Dr. Snyder twice. Dr. Snyder is a caring and loving vet, you can tell when you meet her that her passion really is animals. Our first visit was a shelter checkup (this was because we adopted our dog and she had been given all her shots while at the shelter). Dr. Snyder asked us about our pet's activities and interactions with other pets. Because our pet visits the dog park during the week, Dr. Snyder recommended a vaccination for outdoor activity. She explained what the vaccination was and its benefits. The second time we saw Dr. Snyder was due to skin irritation and hairloss. Rather than immediately prescribing medication, she suggested we try vitamin E supplements and shampoo and see if that helped. Within two weeks, the irritation was gone and her hair began to grow back in the balding areas. My only negative was when I scheduled the second visit, the receptionist said they could fit my pet in that same week but upon paying for services, I was charged for an emergency visit. The office also does doggie daycare and boarding which we will be using prior to and during Thanksgiving week. I will update once I have experience with that service. Update: We've used the boarding services twice since November and our dog loves it! We're given a report card of her activities and demeanor upon pickup. While her reports always say "Did not finish food" she does not appear hungry or thirsty when we pick her up (I've read increased thirst is a sign of anxiety often found in boarded animals). The girls seem caring and Sage is always excited to run to the back upon arrival.
