Does the dental have to be done at a special vet or can you take her to your regular vet. My vet charges 10.00 additional for each tooth extraction. I know I had to have Cali spayed at a specialty clinic due to her needing a liver biopsy for diagnosing a liver shunt or MVD. The whole thing cost 2800.00 8 years ago by a board certified surgeon. So I know they are very expensive. I hope you can work something out that is not so expensive.
Dr. RIBACK (dentist) is not regular AMC vet who comes to AMC 3times a week for any dental cares. I shopped around and it turned out its at lease half off at other vets…. … I wonder where the hell these inflated $ goes to… At lease I saved $1500+ just calling other vets
I'm going to make some more calls tomorrow, then take her to other reputable vet with reasonable price for her dental while she'll be seeing Dr. palma at the AMC for her cushing's
