I've always been very satisfied with Patrick Vet. For all of my cats throughout the last few years…read more I trusted them, they were always gentle and compassionate, but in the last year I haven't been impressed. First I noticed scheduling issues. I confirmed via their texting platform a certain date and time for one of my appointments, and somehow the time magically changed where I ended up being late when I showed up at the office. And they assured me I had the time incorrect. Thankfully I had the automated text saved, and they were wrong. The time was correct on my end. Not sure if anyone else has had trouble with this, but I'd go ahead and be sure to confirm with the front office for appointments as well as with the automated texts. Second is the true reason for my one star review. Just this past week I took my indoor/outdoor cat into Patrick (without an appointment, but she was a current patient) because she was showing mild signs of paralysis in her hind end. They graciously fit her in to be seen. I never spoke to a doctor when we arrived. The Vet tech spoke to me in the waiting room briefly and took her to the back. They said they'd be in touch later in the day. The vet called as promised. They told me all of her vitals were normal. They took an Xray and noticed that her stomach was abnormally full and told me she just maybe ate something that will eventually leave her system. They put her on fluids and offered to keep her overnight for my own peace of mind which I accepted (They never offered to do bloodwork which I think is slightly odd). A vet tech called the next morning and said she was showing signs of improvement and that I could take her home later in the afternoon. I picked her up as directed, and when I let her out of her carrier, she was 200% worse at least. She was swimming across the floor on her stomach and lost all ability to walk on all 4 limbs. She tried to eat but was unable and she also urinated on herself within 10 minutes of being home. I rapidly called Patrick back to discuss my concerns and the vet tech assured me she had improved over the day before and to just confine her to a small space and to call in 2 days to give them an update. After hanging up the phone it took me about 30 seconds to put her back in the crate and rush her to the Emergency Vet. She was triaged right away, upon arrival. In the end, My sweet angel passed away 2 days later from rapid neurological decline and heart failure. It was quick & tragic. Her body is in the process of getting an autopsy for further testing to hopefully rule out anything that could be contagious to my 2 other cats. Although most likely it was Bromethalin Poisoning. A neurotoxin found in some rat poisons. Also note that the Vet at Patrick said it wasn't Rat poison since Rat poison is an anticoagulant. Maybe he should do his research because Bromethalin (a somewhat new ingredient on the market being used in rat poison now) is in fact a Neurotoxin that is tasty and a rapid killer to cats. If I knew that this product existed, My cat would have become on indoor cat 100% a long time ago. I'm not saying that Patrick could have saved her life. But the dismissiveness and lack of concern was prevalent. They didn't seem to care about her well being and future. They never thought to do bloodwork to get more answers. They weren't proactive at all in my opinion. Their bed side manner was nonexistent. Maybe they favor Dogs over Cats? And I never spoke to a vet in person. The only people I spoke to was the vet tech that took her from me in the waiting room and the other vet tech that handed her off to me in the waiting room. We never once saw an exam room together. For Shots and routine things sure, Go to Patrick. For any type of sickness or any level of emergency, I'd suggest going else where. My other 2 cats are no longer patients of Patrick as of recent. I requested all of their records be emailed to me after I gave Patrick the call update they requested on my cat. Which was SUPER fun to tell them she died. :( I still have yet to receive said Records. Super disappointed.

I took my cat McCormick there because he wasn't eating or using the bathroom. They did some blood…read morework and prescribed an oral medication for two weeks. After that, they told me to come back for more blood work. A week and a half later, McCormick was eating even less, losing weight, and still not using the bathroom. I told them I had to stop the medication because it was clearly making him worse. Their only solution was to keep him on the same medicine the one that caused all the side effects to get worse in the first place. I paid for another round of that medication but didn't give it to him. Instead, I took him to All Creatures, explained everything while crying my eyes out, and they immediately felt a large lump on his body during a basic physical exam. Something Patrick's completely missed. All Creatures confirmed with an x-ray that it was a tumor. They gave me special food to help him eat again and treated me with such care and compassion. The doctor there even shared her own personal experience of losing a pet, and it meant so much to feel seen in that moment. I'm devastated that my baby had cancer that went unnoticed for almost a month because Patrick's never did a full exam or offered an x-ray. I will never go back to Patrick's, and I'll warn anyone I can to do the same. All Creatures, on the other hand, I can't thank enough for helping me through the hardest time.

I was very concerned that my bun, Elizabeth, was developing GI stasis. The veterinarian and her nurse Rachel were truly amazing. They took the time to explain everything as it was being done, which I really appreciated. I was given several treatment options that ranged in cost, and at no point did I feel pressured or judged for choosing more conservative options -- something that sadly isn't always the case with veterinary care. I'm very thankful for the care Elizabeth received and would absolutely recommend All Creatures Vet to anyone with rabbits or other small animals

She has helped me with a non-mobile CH kitten (who learned to walk with the aid of exercises guided by Dr. Klein), URI cats, cats with eye issues, high blood pressure, and my beloved FIV+ Japanese cats. The cats never seem fearful in her care and I believe this is because of her ability to understand them and their body language, and she doesn't force them into going to the "crazy point". She is thorough and communicates with the pet parents well to help us understand all we can do to care for our 4-legged friends. She's not quick to want to test, test, test for money, money, money - something anyone can appreciate. She keeps the patient and the human in mind always. It's a bonus that they provide free parking across the street from the office for their pet parents. Best vet in my book!

I knew that I wanted it to be done at home where she would be most comfortable, but I didn't know how that worked so I started searching. I saw that Dignity Bridge had a lot of recommendations on a local facebook group I'm in, but they didn't have a website. I decided to give them a call and leave a message since it was already after normal business hours. Their voicemail message suggested texting for a faster response so I hung up and did that instead. Shortly after, I got a response answering all my questions about pricing, who they recommend for cremation, and availability. Dr Evans and I texted back and forth multiple times and were working on finding a time to move forward with the euthanasia. The next day, Dr. Evans let me know of an opening in her schedule that evening which is when I was trying to schedule her. My dog ended up passing naturally overnight so I was no longer in need of her services. I appreciated her following up and let her know the circumstances. She wrote me a very nice response offering her sympathy and to let her know if they could help with anything. Although I did not end up having to use their services, the interaction I had was worthy of a five star experience. I hope not to be faced with making that difficult decision again any time soon, but if so, I will absolutely be calling Dr Evans and Dignity Bridge again.
