The first red flag should have been the credit card machine sitting amongst the garish decorations of the exam room. We were charged before the doctor even came into the room, charged prior to each part of the exam performed, and made to believe that our beloved pet's situation was life or death if he did not have surgery performed. Luckily, the doctor was unable to actually perform said surgery. Even luckier; they neglected to actually set us up with a referral for the surgeon come Monday. I should mention that not only did Dr Pop not handle our pet in the room, she actually flinched away from him when we were trying to get him onto the scale for her and her assistant. Our little guy was perking up by Sunday anyways. On Tuesday, we made the long drive down to our former vet's office for a second opinion. The doctor there did not see any of the issues that Dr Pop claimed our boy was suffering from. She was also appalled that we were charged prior to every service, especially as there is never any guarantee that an animal would even allow something like an X-ray to be done. If you love your pets, steer clear of Waters Edge. They will try to take you for everything you have, and then try to take you for more after scaring you with a bs terminal diagnosis. Today is Wednesday and our pet is eating well, using the bathroom as normal, happy and healthy and it's all no thanks to this awful place. If I could give zero stars, I would.

I waited about a month before I wrote this review. I wanted to make certain that I had my wits, and…read morewords, about me before proceeding. Last month, my husband and I had to make the almost 2-hour journey from Cohasset, MN to Duluth, MN with my 3.5 lb., 13 year old Chorkie, Dixxy as she was very ill and needed help DESPERATELY. Our vet couldn't fit her in as they already had to squeeze in three other "urgent" visits. They suggested that we could take her to Blue Pearl or wait until Saturday (the next day) and take her to Bemidji. Well, we were so worried about her that we decided on taking her that night to Blue Pearl. We called ahead of time to tell them we we coming and what was going on. In order for anyone reading this review...this is what she was experiencing: 1) She would not eat and hadn't eaten for 3 days 2) Lethargy had set in the day before we took her 3) She was now GULPING water like a Camel and then throwing it all up within 2 hours later 4) Her eyes had gone from big and bright to TINY and clouded. We got there right around 5:30 pm on a Friday night. We went in and they took her back to evaluate her and decided she could wait. So we did...for 4 HOURS. At this time, I asked for a MedTech to take her back and check he Glucose level because a tiny dog like her can crash without warning. I also stated I was really worried about her hydration levels. She took her into the back for literally 45 seconds to a minute. Came back out with her and informed me that her Glucose level was 74. She handed her to me and before I could ask her about her hydration, she practically sprinted away from me and was gone! So, we waited 2 more HOURS and finally asked the gal at the front if they will be able to see her because we were looking at not getting home until 2:00 AM as it was and I had a wedding I was to be at (I'm a Photographer) Saturday early afternoon and the wedding was in ND! She then put us into a "waiting room" for another 45 minutes and STILL not seen. We told her we were leaving and how unhappy I was with all this!! We got home and my husband went to bed as he now had put in a 22-hour day. I got Dixxy comfortable in the living room on her little bed on the couch. I was cleaning up the kitchen when I heard her get off the couch. I came around the couch and saw her standing next to one of the dog beds on the floor by the fireplace. Just then, she threw up so violently that it cleared the dog bed (12 inches across and as high on the sides as she is tall) and HIT THE WALL! Needless to say, I was an absolute wreck and I believed I was watching my dog die!! This was now about 5:30 in the morning. I stayed up and called the Bemidji Animal Hospital at 8:00 am and they were able to see her right away. I couldn't go with so I had texted my husband a NOVEL of everything I wanted them to do and at the top of the list was SUBCUTANEOUS FLUIDS. I know from experience that Subcutaneous Fluids take literally 30 seconds to administer and why Blue Pearl did not address that is BEYOND MADDENING! Bemidji was Fantastic! She was soooo dehydrated that not only did she need subcutaneous fluid, but also an IV! They did a scan and an x-ray and they did not show any obstructions. Now here's the BIG Kicker. Her Blood Panel showed 4 abnormalities PLUS her Glucose Level was 41...FORTY ONE! 80 is considered an optimal level. She had lost almost a full pound and weighed 2.7 Lbs! And her eyes were a direct result of EXTREME dehydration!!! SHE WAS IN CRISIS and had we not gotten her care there, we would have lost her. So to RECAP the 1 Star Review...In SIX hours they GLANCED at her 2x and in those 2x they didn't see how dehydrated she was?!? They couldn't take the literally 30 SECONDS to give her subcutaneous fluids to tithe her over until they could give her a thorough exam?? If they had simply done that, it would have prevented the Glucose crash, I KNEW was coming, because she would have ate! It's lazy and just plain horrible veterinary care!

Update, just to clarify. I did wait 8 hours and because I love my cat and am a pet parent true to…read morethe meaning " parent ". My cat did receive the best care possible. They set him up in a private room and he was safe, comfy, and had access to anything he needed...litterbox etc..the Doc who did see him was fantastic, caring and so understanding.

Blue Pearl is the best ER Vet Hosp in Duluth and serves as far as Wisconsin and other way out cities. I vented my c/o's a couple days ago, but I couldn't have asked for a better Vet to see my kitty. He got the best care. Isn't that really all we need? That is all I asked for and that is exactly what we got. So thank you Blue Pearl for taking the best care of my most precious little love. Sincerely.

Do not recommend. Very disappointed with my experience at Northland Spay/neuter. I brought my…read morekitten in to be spayed and microchipped. The day i dropped her off I asked if she would need a cone for after surgery and I was told "no" and that was all. Went to get my kitten the next day and they forgot to microchip her while she was under for surgery. They microchipped her right then and while I was waiting I could hear my kitten SCREAMING while they microchipped her. My regular vet said they only microchip while the cat is out for surgery because it is a large needle and very uncomfortable. As if my kitten wasn't already in pain and scared from surgery but then they did that to her. then they told me the screaming was from trying to get her out of the kennel, she hates her kennel and comes out immediately after the door is open so I found that very hard to believe. Once I got my kitten home I immediately noticed that she was covered in poop and pee. Her kennel was not wet or smelly so they had to have put her in her carrier seeing that she was soaked in her own feces. My kitten also starting licking her incision within a few minutes of being home, so she definitely should have had a cone even though they told me she would not need one when I dropped her off. I had to bring her into my regular vet, within 2 hours of being home, for emergency care where she received an antibiotic shot and a cone!! They also cleaned up her rear a little more because I could not get it all when I was home with her. Northland spay/neuter does offer a free check up for the animals they see but I definitely will not be bringing my kitten back to that place. I would rather pay $60 at my regular vet for her to check up and then I know a good job all be done. Thank you if you've read this far. I know a lot of people are happy with their experience here and maybe I just am an unlucky person but I think that the experience I had was absolutely unacceptable. I hope no one ever has to hear their kitten scream in pain for for something that easily could have been avoided. That could have been pain free if it were not for the carelessness/forgetfulness of the staff.
