Countryside Animal Hospital

THE singularly BEST Vet we have EVER been to. Been going to them for well over 15 years. As good as they get. As to that other negative review? Wow. Not sure what's up there.

STAY AWAY!



I have two dogs and they each go to different vets. The chocolate lab that I brought to Countryside had been seen there for 10 years. I have never been fond of them, but my most recent visit really put me over the edge. My dog was coughing, so the vet recommended an x-ray. She took him back to be x-rayed, and when he was brought back, the vet told me that he probably had bronchitis. I asked if there was any medication that I could put him on and she said there was one but she "wouldn't recommend it." Did I mention that she didn't even show me the x-ray? His exam if you can call it that consisted of a light being shone in my dog's eyes while he was being patted by the vet tech. On that visit I also had him vaccinated. Apparently he was given his shots right after being x-rayed when he was still out of the exam room that I was waiting in. I was not asked which vaccines I wanted him to get, and prices were never discussed. I was pretty much pushed out of the exam room while I was asking questions. I was charged for 2 x-rays, and my dog is still under the weather. When I went back for his medical records so that I could bring them to a different vet, I was given them after having to jump through a few hoops. I was a little horrified to see how thin his file was. My dog that has been seen there for 10 years has a record six pages long, single-sided. I got in touch with a friend of mine who used to bring her dog there and she told me that they kept pushing off her yellow lab's problems, and as a result, her dog's cancer wasn't found in time, and she ended up passing away at 7 years old.



The people at Countryside Animal Hospital do not care for the well being of animals. They generally seem disinterested in not only their animal patients, but the people who bring them in. They are bad people who conduct their business unethically. If you care about your pet, do not bring them anywhere near Countryside Animal Hospital.
