Last minute vet opened and needed.Not quite impressed though. :[ 8/19/2008

I arrived with a sick 6 month old English Bulldog with ""Red Mange"" symptoms. The doctor seemed sure it was the mites so we did a skin scrape test. But then he said it might be a fungi which I must say was a 20 dollar unnecessary test because in the end his diagnosis was ""unknown."" He wasn't sure what was wrong with my pup. So he gave me a list of medications that MIGHT help out but hopefully it would in the end. \r Ok, I understand medication is needed but really my pocket isn't deep enough for the majority of them if he didn't know what the prognosis was to be exact. So as far as I know, I might be spending a lot more than what I am bargaining for since my dog's condition was ""unknown"" for this doctor. \r I wasn't impressed on how this location seemed and smelled. It looked a bit dirty so i wouldn't trust them to do surgery on my dog. BUT the staff was VERY kind and respectful. It really was a below average location. The price is ""decent"" BUT I mainly was not impressed that the doctor said he needed to do research in order to see IF what he thought it was really was was wrong with my dog and how ""half-assed"" everything he said was and did. I wouldn't recommend it unless it was a last minute emergency which mine was. Pros: GREAT nice and respectful staff members Cons: Doctor said and did things half-ass'd and showed no sympathy that all ""necessary"" things could be bought at the time more
