Bless her heart, she kept her cool. Get to him, take a look and call us back and let us know how bad it is bleeding she told me. I did that, and she told me to come on in.

I would never take another animal here ever again. There is…read moresomething wrong with a vet who stands at a distance and doesn't pet, palpate or talk to a clean and well behaved dog.

When I got him home only the right side of his mouth was cleaned and he was adversely affected by the anesthesia for two weeks. For dental care, do not come here.

We have been taking our cats, as kittens and adults to Animal Medical for about ten years now, and…read moreall I can say is Dr. Ferguson would make an excellent human doctor and I would trust him even with my own life. That is saying something as I, myself, am a human medical professional. He is gentle and genuinely cares for the pets, gives good advice in an almost off-hand manner, and refers to other practices if treatment would surpass the capacity of his own. His practice is limited, so don't expect a fancy ER or ICU for pets, but he does an amazing job diagnosing and understanding small animals. And the psychology of their owners, as well. That's another issue. He is straight foreward, thorough and knowledgeable and he has little interest in expensive add-ons or padding the bill. His charges are reasonable, especially considering the bills one finds at local 'animal hospitals' which border on human-scale expensive. I have also had him 'put down' a pet who was beyond hope and he is sensitive and responsive to such grim occasions. I can think of nothing unkind to say.

We wound up moving our other animals over because the care and love they show all the animals is beyond evident. When it came time to say goodbye to our GSD due to an aggressive liver cancer, Heather communicated with me via text on a Friday afternoon to get Loki seen at an urgent care since they were booked. She then continued to touch base throughout the day as we got appointments set, records forwarded to the other clinic and then fit us in with a last minute Saturday appointment so he could cross the rainbow bridge and shed his pain. The texts were beyond appreciated as I could barely speak without bawling. Dr Primley was also compassionate and comforting as we said goodbye to our gentle giant Saturday afternoon and I cannot thank them enough for the kindness and care they showed us during that difficult time. I highly recommend them to anyone needing care for their fur babies.

A Rollercoaster Experience at Hearthwood Veterinary Hospital: Good to BAD to LOL…read more Strap in, folks, because this ride at Hearthwood Veterinary Hospital is all about highs and lows, with a heavy dose of mystery. My debut was good Dr. Dena Baumgartner, (picture shown on their website below), savvy vet tech (picture not shown), and the vibe that my furball and my wallet were in good hands. But hold onto your hats, because round two veers into the twilight zone. The plot thickens with their photo policy - so cloaked in mystery it could star in its own detective novel. I wanted to document my pet's first happy vet visit. If Hearthwood was a book, it'd be titled 'Why We Hide.' Auditing seems overdue, doesn't it? Then there's the 'VIP (Very Isolated Pets)' treatment - pets and owners parting ways for procedures, waving more red flags than a matador. Me and my sidekick? We don't play that game. We took our paws elsewhere after a peek behind the curtain revealed too many unanswered questions. They wanted to separate me from my pet for a simple booster shot. I thought that was odd since we were already in a private room and they were holding the shot in their hand. Wouldn't you think that was odd? Don't even get me started on time - or the lack thereof. This tech (see picture below) is 45 minutes late for the appointment. As you can see, she is less 'fashionably late.' It's not just about the wait; it's the principle. Most people count that as a "no show" at 20 minutes? Where do you draw the line? 15, 30 min? If it was the other way around they would easily charge me a "no show" fee. They also charged me wellness exam fee of some $60 which I did not authorize nor was I advised that a exam was being conducted. Bottom line: If you're shopping for a vet where secrets don't shadow simple check-ups and respect for your time is a given, let my story be your compass. It's time to vote with our feet, because the path to change is paved with our choices. In America, we vote with our dollar. And people like this business need to respect that. I hope people who read this review note that I was not offered an apology or a refund. Transparency, accountability, and punctuality aren't just nice-to-haves; they're must-haves.

On July 21st, we bought in our 5 month old kitten four days post spay who was not eating, drinking,…read morelathergic and had diarrhea. After having her for 8 hours, Pacific diagnosed her with worms and a gastro illness. She had elevated white blood cells, which we asked their vet repeatedly if this was a complication due to the spay (like a possible infection) and was told no. We were met with multiple charges of x-rays and other items without focusing on the elevated white blood cell count. Other vets we spoke to after stated with any elevated white blood cell count, especially in a kitten so soon after surgery, the very first thing that should have been checked was for an infection. Even if the surgery site looked okay there could be an infection inside. They even took our post-surgery cone and never gave it back and gave us go home instructions that were for a dog not even a cat! Pacific claimed they checked the surgery site and there was no evidence of infection. But less than three days later, she was in so much pain she couldn't even move and was hollowing. At four in the morning less than 72 hours later, we were denied access by Pacific, saying they were closed for diversion. They wouldn't even triage her or check to make sure she's okay. Keep in mind this is a kitten less than a week post spay. We took her to a different emergency vet and an abscess nearly the size of the golf ball was found along with a very bad infection. She had to have an additional surgery and was even given medication to bring her blood pressure and heart rate up because her heart rate dropped extremely low during surgery. Based on the size of the large abscess by that time, there would have been some indication of infection or abscess that was completely missed by Pacific. It took nearly two weeks for someone at Pacific to even call me back about my kitten. I finally spoke to the emergency department head on August 5th to describe my concerns, misdiagnosis and request for reimbursement because we don't believe she was diagnosed properly and the inability to be seen again shortly less than 72 hours later. The ER department claimed he would talk to the vet that serviced her and get back to me. After multiple attempts over twelve days, he finally called me back on August 17th claiming he talked to multiple vets and felt everything they did was satisfactory. I disagreed even claiming when he spoke to me on August 5th, he stated he didn't know the reason they did x-rays. And then all of a sudden he changed his tone saying you approved everything during the cat's stay so that's why it was done. As an emergency vet, we thought Pacific would give us the proper care. But unfortunately, they did not and it seems like they wanted to run up the bill instead of looking for the obvious signs of post surgery complications and treating those. We only know this because the next emergency vet and our own vet, said the clear signs were there. Especially that close after her spay surgery and her being a five month old kitten. She shouldn't have this many complications. Pacific refuses to reimburse us. We feel they should give some reimbursement due to the misdiagnosis, the inability to be seen again shortly after (turned away at 4am from a 24 hr emergency vet hospital less than 72 after being seen) and the lack of urgency or care to get back to us timely by their management team.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but our experience at Animal Care Clinic was frustrating from…read morebeginning to end. We brought our senior cat, Huck, in because we had been battling fleas and ear mites for approximately three months. By the time of our appointment, we had finally gotten the flea problem under control, but the ear mites remained our primary concern. During the initial visit, we were told Huck needed a comprehensive senior exam, which cost approximately $600. We gladly paid because we wanted to make sure he received the care he needed. We were also informed that he required extensive dental work, estimated between $1,700 and $2,700. Fortunately, the final cost was on the lower end of that estimate, around $1,700. At the first appointment, we were assured that the medication prescribed would address both the flea and ear mite issues. Unfortunately, months later, we are still dealing with the ear problem. Communication throughout this process was consistently poor. Before appointments, no one provided helpful instructions such as whether we should avoid cleaning Huck's ears beforehand. For his dental procedure, we were told only that drop-off would be between 7:30 and 8:30 a.m. No one mentioned paperwork. When my boyfriend arrived, he was immediately handed paperwork and told it would take about 20 minutes to complete. Naturally, this caused unnecessary stress because he wasn't expecting it. In reality, it was only one page and took just a few minutes. At Huck's dental follow-up appointment, we arrived early by mistake, then returned shortly after our scheduled time. While waiting, one of the receptionists assisted us while actively eating and speaking with food in her mouth. This was not the first time we had experienced this behavior from staff and it came across as unprofessional. Although our appointment was scheduled for 10:30 a.m., Huck was not taken back until nearly 10:50. We requested to speak directly with the doctor because we still had concerns about his ears. After examining him, the doctor stated that his ears appeared darker than normal but was unsure whether the issue was ear mites, yeast, or something else. We were then told that microscopic testing could be performed--but it would cost an additional $103. At that point, I was extremely frustrated. We had already spent well over $2,000 between exams, treatment, and dental care, and the original issue that brought us in still had not been resolved. Being asked to spend even more money simply to determine what was going on felt unreasonable given the circumstances. While we were waiting, another customer was attempting to pick up medication for his pet after receiving a text notification. Staff appeared unable to locate the medication and repeatedly searched different locations while asking the customer the same questions. It reinforced the impression that the clinic was disorganized and lacking clear communication. My biggest concern is not the cost. Veterinary care is expensive, and I understand that. My concern is that we spent over $2,000, received repeated assurances that the treatment would address the problem, and yet the original issue remains unresolved. Combined with the poor communication, lack of preparation for appointments, long waits, and unprofessional interactions at the front desk, this experience left us feeling disappointed and frustrated. I sincerely hope the clinic improves its communication, organization, and follow-through with clients because pet owners deserve clear answers and that their concerns are addressed.

Dr. Pavlich ordered an echocardiogram for my dog and I was called with the results by some unknown person who recommended a medication but didn't know how the medication worked. I called and asked to speak with the ordering vet to discuss the echocardiogram because, as a physician, I had many questions before starting my pet on a medication about which my basic questions could not be answered. I was called back the next day by a person named Dallas who acted as though my request was a great imposition and that a vet might be willing to speak with me. Dallas emailed me the next day to inform me that another unknown vet was willing to talk with me by phone, but it would be an additional fee to discuss the results of the already expensive echocardiogram that was ordered by Dr. Pavlich. I called the clinic and spoke again with Dallas. When I expressed that I was unhappy that I was being charged an additional fee to discuss the test results he actually hung up the phone on me. If I treated my patients like this I would not only be out of business, but would be reported to the medical board. Extremely rude and unprofessional behavior. Needless to say, we will be finding veterinary care from a vet that actually cares. My recommendation is to stay as far away from this clinic as possible.
