As a first time puppy owner, I became worried when my 8wk old puppy started vomitting. I had started the process of switching his food the day before and thought that may have been the reason but I didn't want to take any chances so after checking out Southside Animal Hospital on Yelp, I decided to have him checked out here. We were seen by Dr Evans and after discussing my puppies symptoms he agreed it could possibly be the food change but also brought up having a parvo test done. He was not pushy at all about it and I actually wanted to have it done to rule it out. He informed me of the cost upfront and proceeded with the test which came back positive. He discussed treatment options/approx prices and gave me statistic info and personal experiences with the virus and course of treatments. I decided on the appropriate treatment for my budget and severity of my puppies symptoms and they began right away with antibiotic & anti-nausea injections as well as injecting fluids into my puppies skin. The tech was very thorough and explained what he was doing and taught me so I could administer the fluids at home.
Overall I feel like this office knows they will gain/keep patients by offering necessary affordable pet care and not taking advantage of people. Not once was I pressured into services or treatments, instead the vet gave me options and advice. I will definitely return.
