This veterinarian was not very friendly once she had started to be questioned about the spaying procedure she had performed on a healthy 2 year old family pet. That didn't sit well with me. The pet was bleeding out 12 hours post-operation. The dog temp at the time was 102 and blood work appeared to be normal but the pet continued to decline. A copy of the chart was requested. What was provided was a computer generated basic history of the pet and bill for what had been done. Nothing indicating the procedure it self and what had been performed. No copy of consent or operative note. No signatures or progress notes. Concern was about an oral pain med to be administered at home after surgery, given in a facility package without any literature or handouts. When questioned about what had been given at the facility prior to discharge, the vet claimed no oral med had been given. They gave no information at all. I was an observer to the situation, horrified this could happen to me!

My dog had a stomach/intestinal virus and was treated with kindness and consideration. The problem was resolved in an appropriate and quick manner. Also, the veterinarian had an excellent "bedside manner" for the dog and the owners. All of the staff are very caring and helpful. The dog was boarded at another time and was so comfortable with her care and surroundings that she ate and drank as she should. I highly recommend this facility for both veterinarian services and boarding.
