I was able to get the test done by another vet for nearly the same price as what my previous vet had charged- $18.50.
The bottom line is I can not afford to take by dog and cat to this vet anymore due to unreasonable charges!!!!
We were told she had two loose teeth that needed to be removed, but no other health issues to be concerned about. A week later, our cat was again pawing at her mouth, lethargic, diarrhea, had no appetite, and had matted fur. We brought her back in, and we were again told that she just needed more teeth pulled out. She was about 12 years old, and we were assured this was perfectly normal, and there was no cause for further concern, although more teeth may need to be pulled in the future. No blood work was done, no other diagnostic tests were run on her. We were also told to put her on a special (and expensive) diet to help her gain weight back with food that would be easy on her teeth. After bringing her home, she was still pawing at her mouth and showing signs of discomfort, diarrhea. In short, nothing seemed to have changed.
Two weeks later, a maintenance person at our apartment complex accidentally let her out the door without realizing it. She was attacked by a wild dog and a kind neighbor found her. She took our cat to HER vet of choice, who immediately ran blood work and determined our cat was well into the 2nd phase of feline AIDS. We contacted this new vet, and she explained that all the treatments from the previous vet did nothing to help. She asked why the other vet didn't run any bloodwork, since our cat showed 8 of the 10 most common symptoms of a cat suffering from feline AIDS.
I called the vet we had been using and asked the exact same question, since the vet we were seeing was specifically a "cat expert." She had no answer for me, and we have never been back. I do NOT recommend you trust these people with your pets whatsoever.
"Ms. [removed member name] has a beautiful 3 1/2 years old domestic long hair cat named Hallie. We saw Hallie first in February 2011 with the symptoms of constipation, a condition common in long haired cats. She also had a circular skin lesion from allergic dermatitis. She was given an enema, Her diet was changed to help with the allergic dermatitis. She had a bowel movement before discharge. Hallie was prescribed a stool softener and lubricant to aid in regularity. Ms. [removed member name] was instructed to return the next day for another enema if needed. Hallie returned and enemas were preformed and the condition resolved. Ms. [removed member name] has purchased laxatone and prescribed food 5x over the next two years until her last visit in May of 2013. Long hair cats have a continued problem with hair balls normally and cats with allergic dermatitis that are constantly licking are more prone to blockage. The preventative measure that we took appeared to have worked until now. Ms. [removed member name] last visit May 2013 was to purchase laxatone. Here complaint was not until 2 1/2years later October 2013. She must have had a bad day. I wish she had called me."
