Although it took about 3 hours to get examined, wait for bloodwork results and make the decision to admit my dog, once she was admitted, she received exemplary care, specifically from Dr. Jambhekar and Dr. Temo. Both were very open and frank and took the time to explain everything to me. They also listen to my concerns and feedback without judgement.
Bella, although quite sick last weekend, appears to be on the road to recovery, which is the most important part. The other thing that was really important for me was the effort to help me hold costs while still pursuing an appropriate treatment plan. We don't have pet insurance (but I am now planning to purchase) and the costs could have quickly racked up. Their advice on all aspects of the financial side was very helpful -- even down to the ladies at the front desk discussing their experiences with Care Credit. People have made a number of complaints about the cost of WVRC without considering that it's still a business, and if they don't make money, this important resource won't be there when you need them. They were definitely there for us. I suggest if you are worried about $, state that up front, educate yourself and be your own advocate. Pets are a responsibility and a commitment that owners make, knowing there will be expenses, sometimes big ones.
I can't thank you all enough for pulling her out of her autoimmune crisis for yet a second time. What a blessing you have been!
Michele & Bella
