| - I will start by saying that everyone reading this review needs to pray they never have to bring an animal here. I am not saying this because of the service but for another reason. This is definitely a monopoly, that's for sure!!! For those of you that don't know what I mean, try taking a dog to the regular veterinarian to treat an eye condition. No regular veterinarian knows how to deal with it so they will send you to Eye care for Animals. Unfortunately, Eye care for Animals is the ONLY clinic that can handle an eye injury to an animal. What does this mean for you? Extremely high prices and no way of getting around it.
We have two pugs, both of which have gotten corneal ulcers. Apparently, these are common in dogs with big bulging eyes. Our pug Winston had to have surgery which cost upwards of $3,000.00 (that was just for the surgery and a few prepaid follow ups visits, there were also hundreds spent on additional follow up visits and medications). Our other pug, Frank, didn't have it as bad and only had to take medications. However, that still ran us about $1,000.00 when you count the initial visit, vet stays during the day and meds.
Although pricey, I will say this for ECFA: they are very knowledgeable and friendly. Every vet and vet tech I have dealt with has really seemed to love their jobs and love animals. At least for the amount of money you pay, you get the feeling that you are leaving your animal in good hands and that their condition will be treated.
