| - I recently took my puppy to the Sun Valley Hope Animal Hospital, after being referred to the hospital by a coworker.
The drive from our home to the hospital was approximately 20 minutes. Upon entering the parking lot, I missed the small sign pointing the way to the animal hospital. In turn I ended up at the animal rescue that is located in the same building. It is a no kill shelter. The staff there were kind enough to point me in the direction I needed to go.
Upon entering the animal hospital I immediately noticed the large size of the waiting area. Next I noticed the sign that read in part they do not provide 24 hour monitoring services at the hospital. We checked in for our 1130 am appointment and took our seats. I must say the choice of seating was not the most comfortable, however for a discount vet I do understand. There was a TV there for the pleasure of those waiting to have their pets seen by the vet.
We waited approximately 10 minutes passed our appointment time, which to me is acceptable, as I am aware emergencies do occur. We were taken to the exam room, which was clean and set up so that the doctor could exam the animal and provide the services necessary. There was a counter and sink area with all the necessary medical set ups. The exam table was as expected as well. The doctor came in, Fernando Notario. He was both professional and patient with all my questions. He did not suggest treatments or procedures that were not necessary. He did not attempt to persuade us into doing anything that was not necessary.
After providing the treatment that we had gone to receive we exited the exam room. The cost of this appointment was far less than what was expected. We will be returning in the future to complete the vaccines for our little puppy. We will also be taking our cat here to have his nails trimmed, as I was very impressed with the price that they had quoted.
I made the decision to give this place a try as I had been told by others that they worked with people who thought their last resort was to put down their beloved pets. Another reason I made the decision to come here was that the place is open on Sundays.
Is this like the typical vet office that I have been to in the past, no it isn't. Do they provide the same services as others, yes they do, at a far more affordable price. Does it matter to the animal if there is a treat at the end of the services, no it really doesn't. What matters in the end to the pet is they know you care and love them.
