My dog has had an on again off again problem with early morning vomiting for over two weeks. We did everything we possibly cold to try and figure out what was going on before we went to the vet.
Tag, my dog, has racked up over 5k in medical bills for us. He has always been struggling with something but after his 2k surgery back in January I dread going to the vet now because Tag is so dang expensive.
BUT he is my baby and I was so worried about him so off to the new vet down the street.
The facility is extremely clean and since they are so new they don't have a huge clientele yet so I got an appointment same day.
I knew going into the appointment that I was going to be leaving with at least a $150 bill since I wanted to get X-rays done to rule out any sort of intestinal blockage. We left with a $460 bill. The x Rays were outrageous. My prior vet in Henderson charges 150 for 3 views and my bill was $190 for two views and and extra view at $60!
As far as the hospital, it's so clean which is great and they put me in a room right away when I came in.
The vet was attentive and clear in his decision for the treatment of our issue but what happens so often after Tag & I leave is I feeling so dumbfounded why this happened in the first place. That was also the case this time..
I left knowing that he didn't have an intestinal blockage but I also left with buyers remorse for not sticking with my regular, far more reasonably priced, vet.
