I had to find another vet for fear of my dog's life. My dog was a puppy, newly rescued. When I first took him there, he had a diagnosis which required antibiotics, nothing wrong with the diagnosis itself which was later corroborated by another vet. The big glaring problem was that this doctor prescribed him oral pills. My dog did not react well to the pills, not only was it a big issue to have him swallow the pills, but it did also not solve the problem despite following the doctor's instructions and continuing with the pills, over and over again.

We were a one and done visit.The condition of the building is in an advanced state of neglect and unbecoming of a professional practitioner. Stained, drooping ceiling tiles, white painted walls stained yellow - it’s difficult to trust if equipment has been properly sanitized as a result.The veterinarian failed to demonstrate any friendly and personal demeanor. I’d know his name if he introduced himself after we introduced ourselves, but he didn’t. Vet is jaded, entirely indifferent, eager to cut us off at every sentence and deeply condescending.If you care about your pet, keep looking. It shouldn’t be hard to do better.
