We've been clients of this clinic for about three years and, until recently, had trusted them with…read morethe care of our pets through some very difficult moments--including saying goodbye to two of our senior dogs. Over that time, we worked with multiple veterinarians here and spent thousands of dollars, so we genuinely believed there was a level of mutual trust and respect. In the past, the clinic had shown some flexibility when large bills came up, which we appreciated as loyal, long-term customers. However, our most recent visit completely changed our perception. We were quoted $254 for routine blood and urine testing, which is already on the higher side. When we asked for just a couple of days to settle the payment--something that had been accommodated before--we were unexpectedly refused. Instead, we were pressured at the front desk to apply for a credit line on the spot, and we were not allowed to leave until we addressed the payment situation. The experience felt incredibly uncomfortable, forced, and frankly disrespectful. After years of loyalty and significant financial commitment, being treated this way was shocking. It felt like the clinic no longer values its long-term clients and has shifted toward a rigid, impersonal, and customer-unfriendly approach. Between the high pricing and the way this situation was handled, we've decided to take our business elsewhere. This was, without question, one of the worst experiences we've had at any veterinary clinic. We will not be returning.

I have had several animals vetted there prior to change in ownership and they were wonderful. Even helped me with my semi feral cat who gets bad allergy breakouts. They vetted him by picture and it worked. Otherwise, I have to trap the poor kitty with a coon trap. New vet won't prescribe the medication (saying it's illegal / a steroid) unless he is seen. Won't to do it with pictures even though we've been treating him for years this way (he's indoor for 9 years but still won't be picked up). So the cat gets to suffer OR be mentally anguished by being trapped. I guess the original vet wasn't worried about jail time. He was worried for the animal. Will be taking ALL my animals elsewhere going forward.

The staff was so friendly and of course Shadow was his charming self until it came to the exam lol. They were gentle with him and gave him plenty of treats afterwards . His Doctor was friendly and very enthusiastic about Shadow being in such good shape . He has nice teeth , clean ears, clear lungs . Knowing all of this made me relax more. He got a clean bill of health with the exception that he's FIV positive. Shadow is the only cat in our house and he's strictly a indoor cat. Even with that he can and will live a full life . One of the ladies did agree with me that he looks like he's part Russian Blue. In terms of cost the initial exam was free because we adopted him from LHS . I did pay for some additional testing and I think it was a fair price . Shadow does have pet insurance for those just in case moments hopefully they'll be none of those.

He was extremely skinny. He had a few very bad days and on his last morning he had crawled into his bed and was barely breathing. He stayed like this for hours but seemed peaceful. We hoped that he would just sleep and pass away. After not moving for most of the day, with very shallow breaths and glazed eyes he began to have severe muscle spasms. We realized that he was not going to go easily and did not want our young granddaughter to witness this. Our regular vet was not available. Over the past 50 years we have had many pets and had to have a few euthanized. It's heartbreaking but had never before left us feeling disgusted. We took Kitty to Bluegrass Emergency Clinic. A staff member took him to another room while we waited. Another staff member came in and explained that the cost would be $265. This seemed extreme compared to our previous experiences of perhaps $65 but we were able to pay the cost. Kitty was brought back to us, wrapped in his towel, with a bandage around each front leg and an IV attached. We got to say a final goodbye and the doctor administered a few separate injections. The whole process seemed strangely complex. Kitty was returned to us in a box and we brought him home for burial. I received a detailed invoice by email: Quality of life exam - $71.25 (Apparently the doctor couldn't tell that this was a poor dying kitty) Catheter placement and Catheter - $51.25 Euthanasia and Euthasol - $128.35

Please see edited portion below…read more Here was my initial rating: "( 2 stars) : All staff were professional, thorough, polite, friendly, etc. My complaint is they did not listen to me. I made it clear that I just wanted one service. But I had to pay approximately $171 for services I did not want, what I wanted should have only cost me $66.64+tax (per their invoice). I understand why they conducted the services they did, but...they did not listen to me. I may even use them again, but I will be prepared to ether insist on what I want (not what they want) or just be prepared to pay for services I do not want or go somewhere else." Not every business has the moral character to contact a client concerning a review and discuss. Dr. Sheets did just that. I'm grateful for that. I did assume that the services I did not want were being conducted by the offices policies, rules, etc. I now understand that the services they conducted were regulated and required by the Kentucky Board of Veterinary Examiners. I now give them 5 Stars and would recommend them!

Having been here several times now, I've never seen another animal booked as the same time as me.
