*Unacceptable Care - A Warning to Pet Owners* Rating: 0 star I recently had a deeply concerning experience at this clinic with my puppy, which I feel compelled to share as a warning to other pet owners. The vet's examination was inconclusive, and they proposed an unnecessary and costly treatment plan ($600-$900) that required sedation. When I sought a second opinion from a nearby vet, they promptly diagnosed an ear infection and provided effective treatment without sedation. I am alarmed that this clinic prioritized profits over my puppy's well-being, charging me $155 for an inconclusive exam while neglecting to provide clear and appropriate care. As a pet owner, it is our responsibility to ensure our animals receive the best possible care. I strongly advise seeking alternative veterinary care that prioritizes your pet's health and well-being over financial gain.
Companion Vet Clinic is my goto for any need, whether emergency or preventative care. The staff go out of their way to get you in as quickly as possible. Everyone who works there, from reception, to vet techs, and Dr Bird are absolutely phenomenal. I am always treated with respect and know that any pet I bring will be cared for as if the pet were their own. Everything from spays and neuters, to an eye enucleation, I cannot sign their praises high enough. Affordable prices, quick appointments, and an easy location to find. You won't find a better Vet Clinic in Oregon for your Furr Babies
We took our sweet heart- Shetland Sheepdog to them on a Monday - he was bleeding profusely from his nostrils. He had started bleeding on Sunday - and we could not find an emergency vet open that had available appointments - but ended up at the one in Shingle Springs - DO NOT USE THEM. It was a horrible experience with them. They took him away from us - and would not let us stay with him and put him in a cage in the back room for over an hour. They even wanted to anesthetize our boy Elgin to get x-rays of his sinus and chest. They did not seem to care that he was a senior - 13 yrs. almost - and doing that would have killed him on the table. They even had the nerve to bring us the 'orders form to sign' which had that they were going to go ahead and anesthetize him anyway - if I had not caught that on the 'form tablet' before I signed - he would have been killed at that clinic. He turned out to have an oversized heart - and a 'dark mass' in his chest. The bill was around $800 for that one visit. The doctor wanted us to go to Loomis Basin Clinic and have a CT done on him the next day - what a stupid vet - they have to anesthetize to do a CT. Do NOT use that vet!!!! The next day - Monday - we called around and found that Companion Vet Clinic had an opening to see Elgin. When we got there he had started bleeding profusely from his nostrils again. BUT, they put us in a room WITH HIM. The vet tech came in and turned out she used to be the x-ray tech at Loomis Basin and did the CT's for this type of condition - probably tumor (cancer) of the sinus. She said that he would not have made it through the CT - age and the end results would have ended his life. Furthermore, she told us that that procedure (even on younger dogs) is brutal and does not end well - most can't recover or even tolerate the surgery (which would be after the CT). SO, we let our boy Cross The Rainbow Bridge with the help of the staff at Companion Vet. THEY ARE THE BEST PEOPLE WHO REALLY CARE DEEPLY ABOUT YOUR BELOVED PETS. Highly recommend them. And we found out they are open - emergency hours - on the weekend. They made the arrangements for cremation and everyone signed a beautiful card to us about our boy Elgin. So. Take your pets to the BEST - COMPANION VETERINARY CLINIC!!!!
