We were referred to this place by our regular vet because our dog was starting to go blind. Called to schedule an appointment & the said the soonest the could get us in was 6 weeks! I took 1st available appointment. Brought him in, $137 for the consult. Then they called to say they should do a retinal scan to see if his retinas were responding, because if they were, there was medication that was reasonable to treat him. They did the test for about $200 & said his retinas were nonresponsive so there was nothing they could do for him. If they had tried harder to fit him in, he might still be able to see! Very frustrating!

Much like others have mentioned this clinic treated our concerns as if they were meaningless. Phone staff was pleasant but the docs and owners are rude AF and couldn't care less about your concerns.

It's been a mess! I have a sweet Cane Corso Mastif...

It's been a mess! I have a sweet Cane Corso Mastiff named Zeeka. She is currently almost 8 months old. I got her when she was 3 months old. She had already had an eye surgery for an inverted eye lid. Cherry eye popped up in that eye before she even left the vets from surgery. I got her anyway and took her back to the same vet to remove the very large cherry eye. She had 2 more surgries after that. When it came back again, I started doing research. A LOT OF RESEARCH! I certainly can't afford to keep paying for all these surgries & and it's heartbreaking to watch Zeeka hurt. I found companion eye clinic, read reviews, called with questions about techniques and options. And finally got her in. Dr. Sillerud was very mater of fact and direct. While seeing the inside of my dogs eye makes me squeamish, it was important to feel confident that it would be done correctly. I got carecredit and paid. 3 weeks in... NO! Yes, the first surgery failed. But so had the 3 before that, so that seemed more normal to me. The second surgery was on Dec 22nd and a different method was used. It's only a couple weeks past, but she is looking great, and the fact that they did the 2nd surgery without charging me: Awesome! Not only do I get to go back if any further troubles arrise with the cherry eye free of charge, I wish I had known earlier! I will follow up with updates if needed. Or see how Zeeka is doing on Facebook!
