| - I was a bit skeptical about Animal Medical Hospital at first because of its size. It's so big that when you walk in, there are anywhere from 3-5 people at the service counter waiting to assist. And with 13 veterinarians on staff, I was afraid that it was the Walmart of veterinary clinics.
Last fall, however, we had to take one of our senior cats to Animal Medical Hospital for emergency treatment of his failing kidneys. He stayed overnight in the hospital, and we could easily make daily visits. Dr. Tammy Evans was fantastic. She was compassionate, honest, and very informative. We eventually brought our cat home and he survived another couple of months before inevitably passing away. Dr. Evans called to check up on him several times. I was so impressed with her "bedside manner."
Soon after that, it was time to take my other senior cat in for his next exam and shots. I continued to take him to his regular vet clinic that he had been going to for a few years just because of the history there. Unfortunately, that clinic had a massive turnover of staff (never a good sign), including my favorite vet, and they "diagnosed" that something was wrong with my kitty that wasn't and started to "treat" him. That's when I decided to take him to Animal Medical Hospital for a second opinion. Dr. Evans wasn't available, so I took the first appointment with the first veterinarian that I could. After examining my cat and getting back the blood test results, Dr. Angela Abendroth immediately took him off the meds the other clinic prescribed and did a full exam. I was so impressed with how friendly she was, the thoroughness of her examination, and the detailed information/diagnosis she gave me that when it was time to return for my cat's next senior wellness exam (every 6 months), I specifically picked a time when the (apparently very busy) Dr. Abendroth was available.
We recently visited Dr. Abendroth again for that appointment and I was so pleased to see her give such good care again to my cat and do such a thorough examination. She doesn't rush through things; she takes her time with patients and their "parents." She really loves animals, and it shows. Following the exam, I received a "report card" in the mail with my cat's blood test results (all normal -- yea!). Additionally, Dr. Abendroth personally called me and reiterated that everything was A-OK. We'll go back in another six months for an appointment, and it will definitely be with Dr. Abendroth again.
Don't be fooled by Animal Medical Hospital's size. Going to a smaller clinic doesn't mean that you'll get more personalized service. It's all about the quality of the staff, and I've gotten a lot of quality from Animal Medical Hospital.
