| - Last week, my dog ingested a bone from a pork chop. I went to ER late at night, 9:30 pm...Dr on call told me he could see bone lodged in my dogs esophagus. Many X-rays sent to Radiologist to confirm it. I have a dachshund/chihuahua...7 years old. Love of my life. He told me he needed to have it removed immediately. I opted out. Mainly because the cost was so high and I was so uncertain and was just hoping the bone would pass, but by 7 am, my dog was foaming at the mouth. I knew I had to take him back. As I went back, I met Dr Stephen Gilson. He was thorough and patient , as I was a mess! A few hours later, maybe 2 hours, he completed the procedure. No incision, he took a scope down the throat, saw the lodged bone ( BIG BONE) and brought it up through the mouth. I can't thank him enough.....His demeanor and confidence was just what I needed! I would say the staff was so kind, just if you go late at night, seems like it goes way slower. Other than that, I give this practice a 5 star! My dogs back to normal and so thankful!
