| - After reading all the reviews for this clinic I really wanted to take my kitty there, but I also called "Alta Vista" and " Dog/Cat/Bird Hospital" and was pleasantly surprised to find out that apart from being rated the best "Blue Cross" had the most reasonable prices. I called on Monday and they were booked but after I told them what was going on with my kitty and that we needed to see the doctor as soon as possible, they said they might be able to "squeeze" us in some time that day and that it would cost extra $20. I also requested Dr. Ryan if it was possible at all. So, our appointment was scheduled for 4 p.m. but since I don't drive I had to ask one of my friends to take me there, and one of them could do it but she could do it at 2 p.m. which means I would have to wait there.. It worked out well: somebody cancelled their appointment and they were able to take us in at 3 p.m. and we didn't have to pay extra. To cut a long story short, I completely agree with all the previous reviews for this clinic. Dr. Ryan is the best doctor one can wish for! Unfortunately she wasn't able to save my kitty because it turned out she had cancer and was suffering, so I had to let her go, but Dr. Ryan was there to support my decision... I just told her I didn't want my little girl to suffer, and if she couldn't have good quality life anymore it was time to let her go. She didn't try to run more tests than we needed, I could feel it wasn't about money but about my pet. She was very gentle and considerate with her. I absolutley trust Dr. Ryan and would HIGHLY recommend her and the clinic to anyone. Brandie - the girl on the reception, was also really nice and helpful in trying to get that appointment for us the same day. I don't have anything negative to say about this place and if I have another pet I will definitely be going there for our checkups and etc. They are open Mon.-Fr.: 7a.m.-6p.m., Saturday:8 a.m. - 12 p.m. Office visit and exam - $42; chest x-ray (2 views) - $125
