“Dr Turn did an excellent job in diagnosing our basset hound Tatiana! Her spleen was enlarged and had a tumor on it. The suggested I take her to Metropolitan for surgery, even though he was more then capable, they did not have the blood and she may have need a cardiologist on hand. I admire that in a vet! He gave me options and some were not good.He also explained the expense of going the surgery route. But they were option nonetheless. I chose to go to Metropolitan and do the surgery which is not cheap. Like I told everyone, I love my dog as much as a child or my husband and if it were my husband, I would not chose to put him to sleep but do anything to prolong his life! The same goes for my precious dog!
Thank you Dr Turn for being so understanding during my difficult day yesterday!
Tatiana came through surgery wonderful. They removed a soft ball size tumor on her spleen as well as the spleen. The doctor also tacked her stomach as a precaution against future bloat. We are hoping Tatiana will come home tomorrow!”
