Took 13 yr. maltese yorkie 13 yrs. old, heart murmur for Urinary tract test, collected urine from patio (not clean catch but got it for vet to see color to help determine if UTI). He charged for UTI but did not catherize to get speciman or test urine. He asked first what food she was on...told him human grade. He said he wanted me to put her on Hills Science diet, I said no, too many problems with dog food. Their food is not regulated well, dead, diseased or dying animals from farms, etc. are sold to pet food companies and they come pick up and use in pet foods. He took her in back from me, came back and said looked like a lot of dental work needed to be done. I checked at home and there was no signs of inflammation, loose teeth, etc. Her teeth had been cleaned a yr. ago, and my vet was retired now. He wrote out three meds, did not discuss side effects, ask if I had questions, was very "unavailable" and gave the paper to the lady at checkout to type out for me. I was charged $226.83 and he had written I was to bring her back the next week with urine speciman! She was worse after giving her meds that day, listless, wouldn't eat, stayed in her bed. Same next day, but worse....I researched the meds online, it said NEVER GIVE WITHOUT BLOOD WORK FIRST, causes lack of appetite, and other side effects. I was upset, had been up until after midnight, took meds back, and was told "no returns". I had told a friend I was taking her to Southside and had heard he was good. I talked to her today, she's a nurse. He was rude to her, tried to hit her for $1990 for surgery, she said it was a money grab, unlike any vets she'd had before...same scam as I got. BEWARE....he's rude and arrogant, and not caring vet.

So, you have to trust your vet like you trust your pediatrician. "You should feed the puppy less now, his metabolism is slowing down." "How much should I be feeding him?" "The back of the bag has a chart." "That price is a lot higher than you quoted me." "We charged for a lot more than was on the quote." "You should bring him back in 3 weeks." "Why? You just told me he was healthy and doing great." "So we can 'handle' him more and he gets used to being here." "Not for a $50 office charge." "You should use this to take care of his teeth." Walks away and puts item back in inventory closet. "You charged me for this can of food. I thought it was a sample. I didn't ask for this." "Ok. We won't do that again." 30 minutes to check out, while 3 other customers checked out around me. I get that we're busy. But you should be better. I can't trust you to make good, healthy choices that don't turn you a profit.
