"I recently had an issue with my cat, Heiko, where he needed to have his elbow fixed.\n\nSee: http://www.yelp.com/biz/pride-animal-hospital-chandler#hrid:iWYZtW8yfDP6ptvcnK6L6A\n\nI was referred to SVSS. After I left Pride Animal Hospital, I called and made an appointment for early the next day, 6:30am to be exact. This is perfect for me since I work night shift and with 6:30 I could just get off work and go straight there instead of staying up half the day when I was normally sleeping.\n\nI met with the assistants and Dr. Tara Enwiller. I loved all of the staff, including the front-desk. They were very thorough and Dr. Enwiller was very helpful in describing what had happened, whereas Dr. Chen was unable to.\n\nThey brought out the two estimates (closed re-set of dislocation or the open surgery). They explained all the risks and everything to me.\n\nAside from the seemingly simple procedure costing a lot, it was painless. I actually opted for the more costly provedure, which I had to put 70% down. But, I said they were to just do the less costly procedure. Then I left for home, slept, and picked him up when I was done.\n\nThe post-op debriefing was also well done. I need to go back here soon to see if I can get his cast fixed (not their fault).\n\nSo, I think this place is top notch. My cat has a cast on with an awesome looking fish decal on it and he seems happy with no pain. I will chalk that up to a good clean procedure."^^ . . "0"^^ . "0"^^ . . . "2011-02-17T00:00:00"^^ .
