“I really want to take a moment to brag about Compassion Veterinary Hospital (formerly Addison Animal Hospital).
My sweet baby, Cinder had a growth pop up on her eye a few months ago. As a precaution, I wanted to get it look at as she has a history of cancer. The first place I went to was Suwannee Oaks, Cinders former vet. I was quoted about $780 to have the spot removed. For me personally, that’s a steep amount to just come up with on the spot, so I decided to look around. I called Compassion and scheduled an office visit.
Talk about a great first impression. I’m a busy gal with a full-time job and responsibilities. Taking off work for a vet visit isn’t easy for me. Compassion not only saw Cinder as a patient, but kept her for the day so I didn’t have to take off work, at no extra charge! But what really sold me is when I came to pick her up. The woman at the front desk gushed over my baby and even showed me a cute video she took of Cinder, burying herself under a blanket they gave her. When I asked about the surgery, they told me they could do it and for a far more reasonable price. I immediately scheduled the surgery.
When I returned to Compassions for Cinders surgery, the first thing I noticed is how thorough everyone is. The front desk greeted me and confirmed my phone number so they could text me with updates on Cinders surgery (which I LOVED). The vet tech who brought Cinder back asked me for a full history and if she had any previous illnesses. I told her I suspected she may have a UTI due to recent symptoms I noticed. From there, I left my baby with them and waited to hear back.
It wasn’t long after drop off that I received a text from them letting me know that everything went well. I was told to come back around 4pm to pick her up. Now here comes the good part. It was only $480. For $480, they not only removed her growth, but that included pain meds, a cone, a nail trim, and antibiotics for the UTI that I had suspected. I saved $300 and anything I thought needed to be cared for my baby was addressed. I felt comfortable leaving her with them and relieved with the updates they sent me.
Overall, I will be transferring my dogs medical records to Compassion and recommend them to anyone who needs a vet. Thank you Compassion Veterinary Hospital Team!“
