I don't make it easy for a vet. I am knowledgeable and opinionated about pet care…read more The staff at FMA managed my dog's recent dental work despite challenges inherent with a geriatric patient and an overbearing owner. The staff was patient with me on the day of the surgery, kept me informed and moved my dog through the process efficiently. She survived the anesthesia, cleaning and extractions and should enjoy a few more years of life with clean breath and no pain. Dental work is expensive because it is time consuming and requires surgical skill to close wounds at extraction sites. The work done on my dog was necessary and reasonably priced. It is a wonderful office with friendly techs and knowledgable doctors. I would rate it SIX STARS.

I'm really grateful for the care my cat Charlie and I received at FMA Animal Hospital, especially…read morefrom Dr. Wilson. I first brought Charlie in shortly after moving to the area, and during that first visit we got difficult news about a mass. Dr. Wilson handled that moment with so much compassion and honesty, which meant a lot. From then on, I brought Charlie in regularly, and I always felt like we were in good hands. Dr. Wilson was patient, thoughtful, and took the time to explain everything clearly. When it came time to say goodbye, she made a very hard experience as peaceful as it could be. Her kindness and empathy really stood out. I truly appreciate the whole team and would absolutely trust them again with a future pet.

We changed vets to Dr. Kovac late last fall, after it became clear that our 13 year old Sheeba…read moreInu/mix needed some dental work. Our pup would get very anxious around other dogs, and we liked the idea of her being the only dog "in the office", and had heard good things about Dr. Kovac. His ability to calm and gain trust with animals before and while "doing his work" sets him apart from other vets, and is his absolute priority. Witnessing his approach upon our first visit with him, made me regret not finding him sooner. He cares deeply about the health and comfort of his patients and their humans. After a short battle with bone cancer, we recently realized it was time to let our dog go. I had been staying in touch with Dr Kovac since her initial diagnosis for guidance and reassurance, and made the call for the final appointment. He gave me the information I needed to be certain that I was making the right decision and graciously took the time to make a plan to help my daughter (who has some disabilities, and was best friends with our pup) understand, accept, and actively participate in the decision with the family. Our dog passed peacefully and with dignity in her favorite spot, in the sunshine, with her people close. It is difficult to articulate our gratitude for Dr. Kovac after this experience. But I can say that that I have never met a more gracious, kind, skilled, experienced, and compassionate vet. When we're ready to bring a new dog into our family, we know who our vet will be. Thank you, Dr. Kovac.

Every time we would take an animal in for various reasons, we would be presented with an estimate invoice for $500 to $1,000. We would have to argue with them about only doing what is truly necessary and felt they wanted to shame us into doing more tests. We took our 16 year old dog in last November for a UTI. They suggested an ultrasound, an x-ray, and blood work. That was a $900 invoice. We asked if we could just start with the $35 antibiotic, and after much arguing, they said they at least had to do an ultrasound. $650. 40 days later her UTI returned, of course, on a Sunday. I called and asked if I could get a new antibiotic. The woman on the phone said they required an exam if over 30 days, exam on Sunday $171. She stated there was absolutely no way around this. So, we take our dog back in and again they wanted to run blood work and x-rays. UGH. Just give me a new antibiotic. Nope, needed to run bloodwork for $230. Total invoice the week of Christmas, $530. They called four days later and said the bloodwork was fine. Guess what, the new $35 antibiotic took care of it. This was not the only time we felt the focus was not on care, but how much can we bill. We now go to Meadowbrook Animal Hospital and give them 5 stars!!! Our first visit was to get an allergy shot for one of our dogs. Total cost $150. Very reasonable, and the care was fantastic!

Very nice vet, for the most part. But their practices and front office staff are lackluster…read more I was new to MO a year ago with a new puppy. This place was recommended for her shots. Every time I had to go get her a shot (she's a puppy, there is a series) I have to pay for the shot AND an exam. So $45 every couple of weeks to give an exam which they don't even do. Call it what it is, money for the vet to acknowledge you are there. I even questioned it during the second rebound of shots a mere three weeks after the first round. I said why is there an exam and they said it was part of it. What a joke. Fast forward a year, I want to get her rabies. She is 18 months old. I ALWAYS get my dogs a three year rabies after the initial rabies shot. My wife warned me that it might be a one year anyways. I called them a few hours before my appointment and confirmed she will get a three year shot. They said it was my decision so I confirmed a three year shot. I bring her in, front office staff was nice, I'm seen right away, exam was pretty nonexistent but expected that already. I go to pay $111 for three shots and a nasal spray. I see the rabies certificate says one year. I tried to get it corrected and now the vet assistant turns rude. "Well I see no notes you wanted a three year rabies. We gave you the one year". I stated that that was nice but I wanted a three year shot. She kept saying "well there is no note". I even pulled up my phone showing I called at 10:58am that morning. Nothing. No apology, nothing. I say well if possible, give her the three year shot not too. "Well I don't know if we can but if we do, you will be charged." I scoffed at that. They asked vet and he said no, it's too late he won't double up the shot. And then, all of a sudden, he won't give a three year shot to a dog less than two years old! WTF???? So when you call and ask about three year rabies shots, they don't tell you your dog isn't eligible (in their eyes) and they won't notate your account and when you call them out on the poor practices, they say "too bad it's too late". At the very least, remove the charge for rabies vax since YOU screwed up, not me. Definitely will not be returning and most definitely will be contacting credit card to get vax and exam refunded.
