READ TO PROTECT YOUR BELOVED ANIMALS
Recently our family took our beloved pet to this clinic as he had drank some fluid, that in large amounts, was toxic. We didn't know how much he drank, so we thought we would rather be safe than sorry. We called several vets around the area and Highview was the one vet that seemed more than confident in treating him, as we caught it early enough the vet assured us it wasn't a worry, and that he would be just fine. Filling us with positivity and trust, she assured us he would be fine. He was to be treated with an IV for two days. When we realized the vet had put him in the back room unseen and unheard, behind closed doors, we made it a priority to stay by his side as we wanted someone to be there in case something happened. Day two rolled around and he looked quite out of it but the vet assured us he was doing just fine. We were to pick him up in the following morning and we're told they were closing so we'd have to come back in the morning to pick him up. With a seemingly lack of care for an animal we obviously thought the world of, he was not checked on near often as he should have been considering the medication they were giving him. Vets and helpers were always sitting in the common area talking, not watching the one animal being treated in the entire office. I got a call that morning saying he had passed away. The sweetest, kindest, most resilient animal I have ever seen. That our family loved so dearly. Was gone. At 5 and a half months old. We found out it wasn't the fluid he drank that he passed from, it was a severe overdose of medication. There was no attempt to help him as he was going downhill, and the part that hurts the most, is they had several ways to reverse the effects of the medication, but they left him there alone, with no one to help the sweet little guy. And for that we can never forgive the vet nor the business. For taking away a loved one we had put in the arms of a careless vet. For those of you who read this, think about how much you love your furry big or little animals before you put them into the hands of someone who wouldn't treat them near as carefully as you or your family. And I wish no one else has to go through the physical and emotional pain our family has. You have taken away a member of our family. Our hearts are all missing a big piece, someone we cannot replace or forget, and so young.
