Cheshire Cat Clinic

I brought in a healthy cat, and left with nothing. The vetrinarian "accidently" gave my kitten surgery when she was only supposed to have a vaccination. She died in the process. I cannot believe that this kind of neglect can occur in such a civilized society. The vet not only refused to apologize but stated that because my cat was an older cat, she would have died soon anyways. more

I am giving this review in the hope it will save others from the ‘nightmare’ ordeal I went through as a result of putting my trust in the Cheshire Cat Clinic, Pacific Beach. I would like to spare others the pain of losing a pet through vet negligence. My cat was not given the proper medical attention she so obviously needed, the thorough examinations I repeatedly asked Dr. Middleton to do, were not given. I sought the opinion of two other vets who having reviewed the medical records were unanimous, and directly informed me that in their opinion, due to Dr. Middleton’s negligence in not thoroughly investigating the symptoms I repeatedly informed her about concerning Bailey; she failed to act and do the necessary explorative tests to find out what could be causing those symptoms. One said the x-rays were “disgraceful,” that in his 30 years as a veterinarian, he had never seen such poor quality x-rays. Her lack of medical care and judgment towards my cat was disgusting and wholly unprofessional. If it had not been for the complete trust I had in this vet, I believe Bailey would still be alive today. I would not want any pet to go through what Bailey did due to negligence or any owner who loves their pet as much as I adored Bailey to go through the heartache. more

I have nothing but positive things to say about Dr Middleton and her staff at Cheshire Cat. I always feel that my cats get the best of care, and they really care about my concerns. I have never met a more thorough veterinarian! more
