I've read some of the other reviews and believe them to be unfair. I've been taking my dog there for years, mainly just for shots. I liked how they schedule appointments so animals aren't in the waiting room at the same time. I really like that.
Recently, my dog almost died from pancreaitis. I chose to have my dog treated on an outpatient basis due to my dog's age, prognosis, and cost. After my initial visit, I noticed I was not charged for an office visit ($45) even though the vet took spent a good amount of time with my dog.
Once my dog needed Xrays years ago, and I thought I was totally ripped off, so I called several other vets and discovered the price was middle of the road. I think it's important to remember, they are an animal ""hospital"" and as a result, lean toward doing everything ""by the book"" so to speak in terms of care and tests to treat the animal.
