I brought my mare Shot O Brandy in for ovariectomy due to worsening attitude and aggression (Thank you for accepting her despite her attitude). She started colicking overnight post-ovariectomy and had impaction colic surgery the next day. She spent 3 weeks recovering and got the best surgical and post-op care from Dr. McCracken, Dr. McClanahan and the whole staff. Thank you for taking excellent care of her!
We are always very satisfied when we have to work with MU Veterinary Food Animal Clinic. We especially enjoy our interactions with Dr. Rivero and his interns. He always listens to our concerns and works to understand our unusual breed of Icelandic Leadersheep. We are given options for care of our animals, and possible outcomes for any choices are explained. We feel our animals receive outstanding care, so we always think of this clinic first when we have a need on our farm.
MU Vet Med Hospital is amazing. Not only do they provide excellent service for tough cases, they do it by spending time and assessing the situation. I cannot say enough about Dr Rachel and Matt.
