i can appreciate this vet for its 24 hour availability. however, i'm one of the few that had their pet misdiagnosed. he was having trouble pooping yet the people here were adamant that it was a urinary/feline crystals issue and presented me with a 1,000.00 bill for a treatment plan. a follow up to my actual vet showed that his anal glands needed expressing and that was that. so, nearly $600 later this place put me and my cat through some unnecessary stress and burden. the cat is on a 14 day antibiotic injection he didn't need (Convenia) and i foolishly accepted their opinion and bought the meds it would take to get him back to normal (according to their diagnosis). it is hard to know where to place blame here. however, my advice to this clinic is to LISTEN to the people that bring their pet in. at no time did i say he had trouble urinating and at every time i corrected the technician they assured me that this was the best path forward. i would not recommend this vet for anything other than the most dire of emergencies. if you pet can wait until reg. business hours, do not waste money here.
