I have 3 dogs (Whippets) and have taken them there for various things. It depends on which sweet young nervous student you get on the day and they fluff about for about an 1 hour !! (I know it's a training hospital but !?!?!?) Then in comes the vet and that also depends which vet you get on the day. I've had a great vet and I've also had vets that just want to up sell like there is no tomorrow, I spent around $4000 on one dog because she ate some mulch and they insisted on removing it from her stomach as they thought she would not pass it all ????? so I bent over and copped that bill! Today I went to get a benign wart removal (2 vets in the past have told me nothing to worry about) but she was started to lick it etc so I thought I should get it removed.This rude [redacted due to personal identifier] vet with would not stop adding stuff to my estimate. No other vet has picked this up ever(dog is 10) but she said my dog has a slight heart murmur and started raving on what a murmur was - I told her yes I know what a murmur is, she rudely asked if I was a Doctor I said no, but have you noticed that my dog is a trembling panting neurotic WHIPPET!! That could be a reason for an elevated heart rate. The estimate went on and on and on way over $800 (if she didn't need a GENERAL) plus $88 consult to remove a wart. Not to mention all the heart tests she wanted to do!! UP SELL UP SELL UP SELL!

This vet was mad and nasty! .This place is too hit in miss. I'm going to find a small private vet.
