With AniCura you get the impression that everything revolves around generating money, and a whole lot of money! The employees are nice, but that does not outweigh the absurdly high price you pay, which is absolutely out of proportion to what they do !! We lost 2 1/2 monthly salaries in 2 1/2 days to our dog who eventually had to sleep in after 2 more days. Despite the fact that our dog Luuk was very ill, we were advised to let him have surgery; a laparatomy. There was no idea what could be wrong with our Luuk, but the veterinarian on duty advised us to open our dog immediately. She was unable to give an adequate answer to any question about a possible diagnosis and when I finally desperately asked "what would you do if it was your dog" she replied "operating immediately, it costs a few thousand euros". We intuitively felt that our Luuk was too sick for an invasive operation, but let us be persuaded because you love your dog. There was nothing in the belly. Luuk barely got out of anesthesia and had to go to the heart monitor that same night. The next morning we received a message that Luuk had to fall asleep. Within two days we received the bill, 3,905 euros in addition to the 500 euros we paid for the first two consultations; a total of 4,405 in 2 1/2 days of treatment !! This is no longer in proportion to what they do and apparently their knowledge is insufficient to find out what the cause is in the case of our 7 year old Luuk (king poodle). We have a huge hangover and will never go to this clinic again. Our own veterinarian (couple) with an enormously good clinical view and absolutely involved (animal doctors Breda) would have done this very differently and possibly also without result but then much and much less money. This only took place at the weekend and then you are dependent on this money-guzzling clinic. An absolute deception !!!! Be guided primarily by your own intuition and not by the so-called advice of this clinic.
