Expensive, tactless, and heartless 12/21/2007

I took my cat to this clinic for vomiting and dehydration. The receptionists were friendly but I wish I could say the same about the vet. Bloodwork and x-rays cost about $300, which I was fine with. The vet was polite and carried out the tests (which basically said nothing) and recommended we leave my cat so they can give her an IV. The estimate for these charges was $1500. Considering that it cost less than $100 to get my cat spayed (an operation vs. an IV!) I was understandably shocked by these charges. As soon as the vet saw my shock, she said, "Well, you're a new client so you can't pay in payments, do we need to talk about euthenasia?" I was disgusted by her lack of tact in this matter, as well as her lack of discussing other options, such as medication, etc. The people who run this hospital love cats, but I'm pretty sure the particular vet who saw my cat loves her Mercedes even more. more
