They called her vet who stopped doing house visits for covid. We called my vet who was really booked out and we couldn't let Chelsea suffer. I turned to yelp to help us. I can't speak highly enough of this place. Not only did they move things around once they heard her condition to fit her in, but they worked with our flight schedules so we could all be here today. It was a completely unrushed, empathetic, comforting, and kind experience. They let all 4 of us in a private basement grieving room. We were given as much time as we needed before and after her passing. It was a very peaceful experience. She was in no pain, she didn't even flinch for her iv. Thank you for treating us like family.

We were seen immediately and the staff was wonderful. After returning home I also received an unexpected call from Julie to see how Mishka was doing.

Happy to say our little guy has recovered.

0/5 stars, I do not recommend you get your pet spayed here. I had my dog spayed and she ended up…read morerunning a very high fever and had complications. At that time I was under the impression that it was because of her having issues with her reproductive tract. Dr. Heinert told me that her uterus was very inflamed. I recently took my healthy female cat in, she was around six months, to get spayed. Intake was great, at discharge I was told that the surgery went great and everything was fine. That she would be dizzy and may be throwing up, but it would be normal. I should isolate her and keep her clean for two weeks. I was told she will probably not want to eat but as long as she's drinking she will be fine. Told if I needed anything I should call. No antibiotics or pain meds were given. I brought my cat home and set up her isolation room in the laundry room. Made sure all the floors were mopped and sanitized, that she had a safe place with a bed to hide if she needed to. Made sure she had food, both dry and wet, as well as water. Checked on her every thirty minutes to an hour to make sure that she was clean, her litter box was clean, and how she was doing. She ended up passing three days later. When I called the vet he was very rude and kept insinuation that it was my fault she died, he did nothing wrong, I must have did something that caused her to die. He flat out told me that even if I took him to court I wouldn't be able to prove anything. He was very unprofessional and very unapologetic. I am not a vet and this is my first cat getting spayed and the discharge instructions were not adequate to say the least. The way the vet handled the situation was very unprofessional. I was lead to believe that everything is great. I was never told what to look out for that would be signs that I needed to panic and call the vet. The discharge laler that were given to me have absolutely no information in regards to signs that require immediate attention. If you had the same experience with this vet, please let me know. Maybe, together we can prove his negligence in court.

The class conductor was a fan of German Shepards, and the breed struggles with hip problems, so she had been down this road before. Although I'll do pretty much anything for my dogs, at first the thought of Doggie Acupuncture was a little far out. My local vet whom I would speak very highly of wanted to prescribe Rimadyl. I went with it because I've been going to the same vet for 7 years. I gave it to my dog and she did great. Then I googled Rimadyl. I was not happy with what I discovered. I called my vet back and discussed my concerns and she put ==most== of my fears to rest. The thing of it is, I am not a fan of long-term medication unless it is for something life threatening like heartworms, epilepsy, lyme, etc. The Rimadyl was $33 for 28 pills, and my dog would have to take TWO PILLS A DAY. Which makes Rimadyl roughly $65 a month for my dog. Not including the yearly blood work they recommend to make sure the medication isn't ruining my dog's liver. The last time I had similar blood work done on my other dog that was $6o-ish. Dr. Heinert's office offers acupuncture for dogs for roughly the same amount, but they only need to see my dog once a month. His office was very nice and they answered all my questions upfront. I'm sure some people wouldn't want to spent the money, I don't want the cheapest option, I just want to make an educated choice. If pills are the same price as acupuncture why would you even bother with pills? The first session, I am told, will cost about $120 for office call and procedure, and to get my dogs history, etc. They recommend two sessions the first month, and then once a month there after. Larger initial investment.......but a lifetime of not choking down two pills a day that were pulled off the human market. National Geographic recently (June or July 2012) published an article on just how effective acupuncture was in elderly rats. The findings were extremely encouraging and hard to argue with. Their office is 25 miles from my house, but my husband and I decided it was worth it. We've decided to ride out the prescription for the next two weeks while we prepare the bank account for the acupuncture. I will update with results later. All-in-all though....this office comes highly recommended and even with driving 50 miles round trip once a month, it's just about the same price as a prescription. It's hard to argue with that.

Took my dog buddy in for his rabies first time I was there. What did they do gave him 2 vaccine we didn't ask for. Only found out of the mistake when we went to have him groomed and on his paperwork there was no rabies vaccine. So I was billed for 2 vaccines I never asked for. All I got was a sorry and to bring him back in for his rabies. Also my dog isn't nurtured and the paper work said he was. Pretty obvious he isn't. Then the second vist we took him got his rabies. A couple weeks later I get a call saying he needed his sutures out. Obviously he had no sutures. So in two visits he was given the wrong vaccines. Messed up his vet records and called us for something he didn't need. Cost me extra money for vaccines he didn't need and miss time at work. If you dont mind incompetency then go here but If your someone who expects there vets to be held at the standards as all medical professionals then I would say go somewhere else.
