We have been going to Dover Area Animal Hospital for over 25 years with our pets. I have always been happy. However, I noticed on my last bill that we are now being charge $5 waste disposal fee for syringe. We have 4 animals getting vaccinations so that is $20 added onto bill. I think this is ridiculous charge added onto bills I dont see this charge with our horse vet or at my own doctors office.
I started going to DAAH approximately 18 years ago when it was just a small vet office run by Dr's. Dave and Dan, and when they were the most reasonably priced vet I could find Sadly. things have changed and it appears they just got really greedy. They have expanded that small vet office into a huge vet office and expanded their prices as well to pay off that huge building and for profit I'm sure. I have been taking my dog there for grooming for about 7 months. He initially needed bloodwork done because he has anxiety and requires sedation for grooming. That was fine, but at our last grooming I was informed he would need bloodwork done every 6 months to continue getting groomed there. Say what??!!! To the tune of over $300 a pop and his groomings cost $250 a pop!! Highway robbery!! Sadly, we will be taking our pup elsewhere. And will most likely never own another animal because vet care and grooming have become totally unaffordable! One last note...the groomer has zero personality and leaves much to be desired!
We have gone through a few vets in the area with our large family of dogs and cats. This place has never nickled and dimed up to make our bills larger. They have always done their best for our pets (4 dogs and 4 cats). Very nice staff and couldn't be happier with the many experiences we have had with them.
