I have lived on the island for 12 years now and the vet clinic is worse than it has EVER been! The doctors simply do not care, they seem to be blinded by the business aspect of it all. They run a monopoly on the island here and they know it. Prices are ridiculously high and the care that my animals have gotten there has been subpar.
The doctors appear to lack any sort of compassion. The only good thing is that they are often gone on vacation and the alternate veterinarian (Dr. Caldwell) is great. I would highly recommend getting anything other than routine checkups done off island, it will probably save you money too.
Their decision making seems to be based largely off of what is most profitable to them. My dog had a torn toenail and I ended up paying near $500 for a surgery they claimed to be vital, I found out later after doing research online and talking with other veterinarians that she simply needed some antibiotics and a bandage. Avoid this place at all cost!
