I've been bringing my dogs here for years and I've tolerated a lot of disrespect from Matthew but the recent treatment had me shaking. He not only spoke over me and interrupted me while I was answering HIS questions about my dog but he treated me with a condescending manner and tone during my entire visit. He also pushed me out the door without giving me any instructions on how to administer my dogs medication so I was left to Google and wing it, which didn't feel great after the recent loss of my other dog. If you want a nice vet who really cares about your pets, go elsewhere. This guy could use some lessons on kindness, communication, and respectful listening.
If you want your pets to live, do not come here. This doctor is the WORST. My dog has been having issues this past year. When I would bring her in for a visit, the doctor would cut me off in mid sentence and not listen to my observations/concerns. He wouldn't even take a look at the video I have of my dog, showing him the issue. I just figured he was in a hurry, and trusted him. Most recently, I made an appointment for a full blood panel to get some answers. After waiting for a week to get in, a day before the appt, I get a phone call and am asked to reschedule for the next week because the doctor spontaneously decided to go on vacation. When I said I couldn't, the receptionist asked if we could come in right then. When we went, the doctor was extremely rude, and in a rush. He did the blood panel and a check up, but shooed us out the door with out any post care information or advice. I called the next day to have the diagnostics emailed to me, and I was informed that he DID NOT do a thyroid test on her and that "HE WILL DO IT IN JANUARY when she gets her teeth cleaned". ummmm EXCUSE ME???? You mean to tell me that you charged me for services that I didn't get? The receptionist confirmed. When I asked what they were going to do to fix it, she said the doctor will send me a check. Those blood panel tests are not cheap. After waiting for over a month, I finally received a TWENTY DOLLAR check. Why didn't they just do the Thyroid test? It doesn't make sense to me. Why didn't they tell me the day of? Its so shady! I went to get a second opinion and it turns out that my dog had ASPIRATION PNEUMONIA for some time and it could've turned septic!!!! I literally maxed out a credit card getting xrays and antibiotics for her due to his lack of care. I can't imagine how many pets have died because of his recklessness. Do not take your pets here. The only good thing about this place was Lindsay. She was very attentive and did all she could to make this better. I hope she gets another job far away from that place. She deserves better. Just like out pets.
We've gone here in the past but don't think we will return. I tried to call and was hung up on. Called back thinking it was in error. My call was answered..I explained why I was calling and waz told a vet is not on-site today but she will check the schedule. Ok..I was placed on eternal hold. My call was disconnected. Tried to call back three times!! The phone rang rang rang..it answered and then disconnected..what kind of vet thst is open doesn't have a vet on site!
