All of the staff are very kind, thoughtful, and helpful.  I see Dr. Phillips for both of my dogs (Bella and Allie) and appreciate her expertise and understanding.  I would recommend this practice to any of my friends and family.

We love taking our dog here. The staff is all wonderful. The doctors take their time with you and extra special care of your furry friends. Highly recommend this vet.

I'm not from around here. I read the great reviews, and thought I would give you a shot. BAD IDEA. A first time visit should not go from $50 to $250, in under five minutes, without disclosing costs of procedures. And when you did attempt to disclose costs of procedures already preformed, you quoted $25 for a skin scrape, not the $50 you charged. This leaves me with two options: A) you don't know the cost of services you are providing and recommending (or don't care), or B) decided to charge me double because I questioned the costs of care recommended. Your initial proposed plan would come to over $700 for a spot of hair loss (keeping in mind a human in the house with a confirmed case of ringworm). 

My dog is 11 years old, by having the great fortune of avoiding veterinarians like you, we have enjoyed a wonderful journey together. But please, leave vet school behind, try to empathize with your clients and understand that we don't all have unlimited credit cards at our disposal. I am broke after working for 15 years in the animal rescue field, and now paying my way through school. Skin irritation is something that shelters, rescues, and boarding facilities see on a daily basis, and have basic outlined procedures... that don't cost $700 per treatment. ($700 = three and half months rent for me) But again, it wasn't even the cost of procedures - I have never been to a vet in Texas that did not disclose cost of procedures before preforming them. 

This is how pets end up in shelters. In Austin, I worked the overnight shift at the Town Lake Animal Shelter for two years. This is when people bring their pets that are too embarrassed to bring them during the day. Often its a landlord/housing issue. But more often than not, they have just gotten an outrageous bill from a veterinarian. They would put their pet, bags of toys, treats, notes, drawing from the kids, into a metal door on one side; and I would open a door on the other. Sometimes we couldn't reach them, they were too embarrassed to fill out the drop off forms, and didn't leave any contact info. They dropped off loved animals because they THOUGHT they couldn't afford care. A lot of them actually could afford to care for their animals. They didn't need the three types of diagnostic tests and multiple rounds of lab work recommended. Luckily, Austin has set up programs to help people find reasonable cost services. I hope Nevada can also steer towards building compassionate client relationships, but for now, I'll take my dog to Texas.
