Can't believe the incomptence of this supposedly 4.0 rated Veterniarian office. Took my Golden in on 2/05/2014 for continual skin problems (hot spots, and growth on foot) . I was told by Dr Good that there is a new wonderful med for skin issues like my dog has had for 9 yrs.(Steroids were ineffective) First we would need to know if the growth on my dogs foot was cancerous, as the new med would speed cancer up. Knowing Goldens' susceptibility to cancer and their life span normally 10- 12 yrs, I asked is there any way to check if she might have cancer, before I have the $649 surgery to remove the growth. I was then told that we would do a histopath blood test, to check and see if any of her blood levels were out of the normal range. I agreed and had her blood drawn on 2/6 Tues morn. Cost was $128, which I paid cash for, was told the blood test would be back in a few hrs, or by end of day. Called back that eve, the tech replied" yes, it's back, it's on the wall,,vet will contact you by end of surgery hrs that eve. Didn't happen, so I called first thing next morning, was told vet was already in surgery would contact me later after lunch. Didn't happen. I called about 2:00 was told vet had already left. Called the next morning AND lunch with the same results. Today 2-7-14 @ approx. 1:15, I went to the office for a copy of blood test. Again was told vet was out to lunch, but would call me (I said , no I'll wait.") was then told it could be an hour or more, again I said "no, I'll wait. Then, in LESS THAN 5 MINS the tech came to tell me Dr Good was back and went immediately into surgery; yeah right. My point? I paid money for blood test to help me make a wise decision about the $649 surgery on FRI and had to go down and get it myself because the vet either didn't care about my plight or my dog, enough to call me back for the lab results.Or perhaps because I didn't jump right in and have the surgery? It's all about bleeding people who love animals dry. If anyone reads this post would you please pass on the WARNING.

Amazing place, kind, loving, always concerned about your family pet! Will only ever take our pets here!

Verry good with our Dogs and cats. Would tell any one to go. Its worth the drive

Fantastic place - just taken 4 stray kittens there for them to take a look at, they couldn't have been nicer and the prices they charged for anit-biotics etc. were far less than I had feared.

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Melbourne Animal Hospital. Last December my beagle got in to some hidden Christmas candy that had been tied up in a bag and packaged. She ate a 20 oz. bag of dark chocolate m&m's and a 12 oz. dark chocolate Dove bar, so basically she inhaled 2 pounds of dark chocolate which is toxic to dogs. So I called MAH, even though I had never even taken her there before, and they were so helpful and took her right in and were able to get all of that chocolate out of her! Recently, my little beagle hadn't been feeling well and had not been eating her food and I was unsure of what was wrong or what to do with her. So again, I called MAH and they were able to work her in that day and run some tests to figure out what was wrong. Again they came to my rescue. I also thought the cost would be very high, but they were actually very reasonable and less than what I expected. Thank you so much to the doctor and staff!
