| - PLEASE BEWARE of this place. I brought my dog here (and, BTW, there is competition, GREAT competition and I'll get into that later). And the "vet", the woman w/ the dark, curly hair, said my dog (Mmi) had a luxated lens, and had already (years earlier) diagnosed her w/ macular degeneration. She said Mimi would need an $800 test to test her eye then a $3400 surgery, and said "why don't we just wait a while and remove the eye, she'll go blind from the degeneration anyway). NO WAY. I had already let this woman talk me into removing one of my other dog's eyes (he passed on later) and it was a horrible, traumatic surgery. I am now picturing this vet as having rows of jars of dog eyeballs in her home. She seems to get off on eyeball removal. So we asked our HOLISTIC vet if she knows of an excellent eye doc. for Mimi. She asked around, the answer was "Dr. Meredith in Tucson". So, we made the appt. ,packed up our crew and headed down. HE IS EXCELLENT. He is very humble, and won't tell you this, but I found out he is one of the top, top, no. one docs in this field. He is kind, caring, explains everything, funny, and about half the price for the visits. PLUS, he SAVED Mimi's eye, and the surgery (a major one) cost a thousand bucks less than I was quoted at ripoff Gilbert. That's right a thousand bucks less for a real expert. Now, Mimi can see and is doing great instead of being eyeless. On top of that when I mentioned her supposed macular degeneration he looked at me oddly and said "she doesn't have that, whatever made you think she has that.". So, the "eyeball plucker" was wrong or lying about that too. If you don't think your dog is worth a two hour trip down to Tucson to see a real pro, who cares, I don't think you deserve your dog. But, I will add again, you will save your dog from horrors, and save yourself some cash
