The only thing I'd do differently would be get bloodwork next time around (because I did not ask, and they did not offer) but other than that, was very happy. For $65, Jackson was neutered, given 5 days worth of pain meds, 4 baby teeth removed, microchipped (this was an additional $25), monitored properly as far as I saw, and home by 4:30. He healed up great and was back to himself in a few days  I still use this place for little things... to get antibiotics when he got kennel cough, and to get rabies shot every 3 years.
I really wish I could find one vet that I LOVED and fully trusted. Jackson has been to three regular vets now plus this clinic, so I've never really had an 'official' vet per say, I feel like we've moved around a lot depending on what was wrong with him, and I wish I could find just one I fully trusted and felt confident in. |
Glad to hear it went well. I spoke with two friends who have yorkies in the area and even before i asked about who there vet was they recommended this clinic and took there 3 pups to get spayed there. Said it was very good and their dogs are great. i will still go for my own blood work before december to make sure all is okay for surgery. Just because a clinic is lower cost does not mean it is lower care or lower standards. some may be, but hearing the great things i did about this clinic i am happy that lola is in safe hands.
thank you all for the input.
