McDonough Animal Hospital

Sheree Butler Wickes

Looking for a new Vet (I have 2 dogs, 4 cats, 1 hamster). Came for a 3:15 appointment today... everyone who came after me (some 30 mins. later) and I was the last one there... at 4:15... I don't wait at a doctor's office that long for my children... sure not going to wait that long for my pets. Not a word... not one.... from any one.... I left and won't be back. There are so, so many Vets... I will find the right one.

I do not recommend this facility to anyone who thinks of their pets as FAMILY. While sitting in the waiting room on my first visit, I noticed that animals were being rushed through visits, some being seen in the waiting room by general staff, not a qualified veterinarian or even their assistant. Owners were not being consulted and were left with questioning looks on their faces.

My first opinion of the actual veterinarian was that she was nice, but extremely busy and rushed, but since she was the veterinarian, I trusted her diagnosis.

I was told to return in 48 hours if the situation had not changed, which I did.

I was then told, ���I don���t know what to tell you, just watch her���.

Long story short, I ended up at the animal hospital and followed up with a different vet who informed me that I should have NEVER been sent home from the first visit and I was extremely lucky my pet survived at all. If you consider your pet as one of your children, I do NOT recommend this facility since it focuses on quantity not quality.
