Overall

I chose to go to this pet hospital because of the high ratings it received on it's reviews. We were perfectly satisfied with the care we received for basic check-ups/vaccinations for our now 6 month old puppy. When he was sick with horrible diarrea we chose to take him in to this vet. We found that he had coccidiosis and giardia. At this point I felt that I was taking my puppy to someone I could trust. They prescribed him an antibiotic and said it should clear up after the course of the medicine and if not- bring him back in. After the week of meds he got his diarrhea back and I brought him back in. He still had the same thing so they gave him the same med for a longer duration of time. I asked if something else should be tried as my dog had been sick now for 3 weeks- they said no, this should take care of it. After this treatment he was STILL sick. I wanted another opinion so my boyfriend called a family friend who was a vet. We found out that the medicine they gave our dog something that is not typically used to treat these parasites and that with the parasites it is commonly known that they need a 21 day treatment to entirely rid the puppy of the parasite. He told us that we could find this medicine at fleet farm and how much and how long we should give it to him. After finding this out we looked it up online and found that he was right. We called Advanced Petcare to question them on this and they told us they only carry the one medicine for it and that is why they gave it to him. During this call I found that on my second visit they only tested my puppy for ONE of the TWO parasites he was originally diagnosed with. Their reasoning? The tests are costly and they assumed it was just the one he still had! I trust that my vet is taking care of my dog and it should be MY decision if I want to save money or ensure my dog is well. Secondly, I wouldn't have had to spend any money the second time if they would have treated him correctly. He is now well thanks to our family vet friend but I would never trust my dogs life to this clinic- whether or not this was a life threatening illness- my dog suffered for longer than needed.

Best Service Ever

I just want to let people know that Bella and I very much love Dr. Gerds and the Staff at Advanced Care Pet Hospital. They went out of their way late one evening to help unobstruct Bella without charging us an arm and a leg. I will tell my friends that this is the best vet in the area.
