    After 5+ years of receiving service at Alpine Animal Hospital, I no longer trust Dr. Kendig or his…read moreadvice as a professional. I brought my 10 year old Yorkie, Lola, in to be seen for an unknown leg injury. Requested we have X-rays taken and was met with requests to fulfill vaccinations and have her teeth cleaned. I am aware of my dog's dental history, continually monitor her and at this time, could only afford to address the issue with her leg. After having Lola fast for sedation for the X-rays, I was informed they did light sedation, suspected an issue that would need to be referred on for surgery but they were saving me money for her to come back for a full sedated dental cleaning ranging at $1,200+. I argued back to the technician that her teeth were not my priority at this time and that I needed confirmation on her leg. She pressed that Dr Kendig wanted an antibiotic started for Lola's teeth and to think of scheduling a dental cleaning in the near future. Reluctantly, I agreed due to the amount of guilt tripping and supposed urgency from the technician. Please note, I have three children with needs and have to budget our lives. Fast forward to a week later, Lola started to decline food Saturday, became lethargic and vomiting Sunday and Monday presented with bloody stool and vomiting bile. I promptly called the Dr Kendig's office and they saw her right away. I finally received a call at 4:50pm saying Dr Kendig prescribed her too much of the antibiotic for her teeth but she should be fine if we switch to a new medication. I write my revised review days later due to the emotional toll this took on my children and I. I wanted to understand why after a $300+ visit from before my issue was not addressed, now after a $530 carpet cleaning bill, additional $309 emergency office visit - why we couldn't have just kept to my original inquiry. We could have avoided so much stress for everyone. I just wanted to be heard and was met with a pernicious medical assistant who my son and I heard making fun of me and exasperatedly speaking to Dr Kendig about how annoyed she was that I wanted to speak to him and not take her attempt to placate my concerns. She crossed her arms, rolled her eyes and reluctantly said she would get Dr Kendig to speak with me. It was one of the most unprofessional situations I have been in. I mentioned that we could hear the interaction and that his employee had a crap attitude. Dr Kendig started by telling me my dog had "40 rotting teeth in her head" and asked if I knew how it felt to have a toothache. He proceeded to question my intellect and moral standards towards my dog's pain. I said I understood where her teeth were and this additional $1,200 he was quoting me for her teeth cleaning was just not a financial option at this time. He ended with saying, "Why did you accept the treatment?". He was rude, condescending and it turned into battling his frail ego. It's evident that he sits and police's people's reviews each day to defend his actions. He is hurting people and their animals. After speaking to others, his reputation proceeds. * Following up - I have been reimbursed for the follow up medication and dog food Dr Kendig prescribed since Lola is now under new care and her original issue has been fixed. Her leg was just displaced from the socket and is doing well. Note - your office had a dental cancelation and called me for the dental appt of which I called back and canceled due to funding. But, again, your textbook gaslighting is another reason why your business is not worth going to. I will happily take my business elsewhere.

    I took my 8 year old Rottweiler to Dr Mike several times because something was off. Dr. Mike…read morerepeatedly misdiagnosed her and dismissed my concerns. In Feb 2024 she was lethargic, panting and losing hair. He said it was due to a sweater she was wearing. I pushed him to do bloodwork which he ultimately did but he was reluctant. The bloodwork came back positive for low thyroid. He put her on meds and sent her home with shampoo but her condition worsened. In April I took her back. Her skin was a a complete mess, she was Panting excessively, and drinking excessive amounts of water. He said it was the thyroid medication that was causing these symptoms. I pushed him telling him something was wrong. He dismissed me and sent me home with more shampoo. Two more exams in August and October- he says all is well. December she starts having seizures. He finally takes it seriously but it's too late. The cancer has consumed her entire abdomen and chest. Dr Mike tells me it was not a seizure- it was a syncope event. He told me to take her home and let her live out her days. I ask him- is she suffering? Is she in pain. He tells me she is comfortable. A few hours later, and 4 seizures later (NOT SYNCOPE) I end up in the ER. The ER doctor says my dog is struggling to breathe, her O2 level was 81% and her abdomen was extremely painful. She said the seizures were most likely caused by a tumor in her brain. She recommended euthanasia- which I did. Dr Mike misdiagnosed her repeatedly over the course of 9 months and then sent her home when she could barely breathe and was in extreme pain. We could not have stopped the cancer but if caught in Feb we could have treated it and given her a better quality of life. Dr Mike refused to listen to my concerns and repeatedly dismissed me. He sent her home to die a painful death. Who does that? I am so disgusted by his gross negligence. Please do your research and read the other reviews too. They are similar to my experience.
