Absolutely no! Ronni Lavine once cared about her patients and was a respected veterinarian but it's…read moretime for her to retire. She's so obsessed with not catching covid that she let her practice slide. I took one of my senior cats to her in 2019 and she barely examined him and just said, he's a very old cat. He was 14 at the time. He wasn't eating... I took him home and cared for him myself. He's doing well at almost 16 yrs of age. In December 2019 my lab developed a growth on his shoulder. We waited an hour in the van to be seen. They took him in and he was back out in five minutes. I was shocked. What did they do? Did they X-ray?! The tech couldn't tell me but surgery was scheduled. He had the surgery a couple weeks later and then developed breathing problems. Ronny thought it was inflammation from the surgery. She prescribed theophylline and Cipro. He had a massive seizure with his first dose. She prescribed drugs that were contraindicated and known to cause seizures. I brought her to him that evening and she was absolutely horrible. Cruel, callous and selfish. All she wanted to do was go home. He spent over a week in the emergency hospital (covered by her malpractice insurance... ) - seizures wouldn't stop unless he was highly sedated. The ER vets did a chest X-ray after a week. He had a growth (cancer) throughout his chest. She hadn't X-rayed him to see how widespread his cancer was in December. I had to say goodbye to my 9 year old companion. My heart breaks every day missing my Shiloh. Later I found out several people in the past few years had also lost their beloved animals due to this vet's callous indifference and negligence. Hopefully she retires soon.

When other Vet Clinics tell you to take your animal to NC State, understand this is his Alma Mater. The clinic has equipment to perform a lot of the same procedures like chemo for animals.

However, Dr Dale has cured my cats when all hope was gone. He NEVER RAN unnecessarily tests. I can't THANK Him enough for all he has done.
