| - I went to this vet for a few years. They seemed fine when my pet was rather healthy, but as she got older, she seemed to get odd diagnosis. I continued with their prescription treatments for a week, but my pet didn't get any better, so like any good "mom", I got a second opinion elsewhere. It was a night and day difference!! Central Phoenix Animal Hospital had said my pet had a parasite, something that is diagnosed with a easy test...the new vet did the same test and said "NO WAY!!" My pet ACTUALLY had hyper thyroidism, not a parasite. (my pet NEVER goes outside, so I thought it was weird that he would get a parasite). After 7 days on the proper medication, my pet was healthy and back to normal. This vet also misdiagnosed another issue my pet had...like REALLY MISdiagnosed her (saying she broke a bone...SHE DIDN'T!!!). I felt sick about it. I also didn't like the way they handled my pet when she was injured...I know they want to protect themselves, but they were REALLY rough with her (I offered to help, but they just manhandled her instead.)
If you have an adorable little healthy puppy or healthy kitty, they're fine. They're actually pretty nice usually and I know they probably help out a lot of people who don't have much money (I saw a few instances of people not having a lot of money and they'd work with them), but, if you really need GOOD vet care, I'd go somewhere else.
Oh yeah...the last time I was in there, they were joking around in the lobby and two women came out of one of the examine rooms, obviously upset, crying, etc. It was obvious that they just had to put their animal down. No one stopped joking and laughing...they just yucked it up while these two women fought back sobbing...it was so sad. I wanted to give these two strangers a hug and kind word and then slap the employees for being so cold and insensitive. Inappropriate.
