Once again a vet who is interested in doing expensive labs and visits for an animal without any change in her health status, to get her prescription for her thyroid medicine she has been on ALL HER LIFE for 11 years.........We have seen Dr. Koening for almost 3 years now and every time it is a battle again to get the prescription filled without him wanting to see the dog and run tests! Without any changes in the dog warranting such exams! As a doctor myself I smell a mouce when I see it! I understand Vets need to make a living too, but this is taking advantage of the ignorance and wallet of less experienced and trusting pet owners. Once a year exam should suffice unless there are changes in the animal's health, which has never been the case. This is the 3rd time this is happening and it is as far as I am concerned an established pattern of behavior with the clinic. I am changing clinics.
Pros: able to get in
Cons: requiring unessacery tests and exams to get refills on maintenance meds. Rude service from staff when complaining
