The primary disappointment, resides within the clinical side, no doubt. Not only have we perplexed them, regarding various symptoms our cats have undergone, and were recommended to other doctors that had nothing to do with his primary issue at hand, but following a blood and urine test, we were NEVER told our cat had kidney disease, until we recently came in, following newer and more pressing symptoms. It turns out that our cat's initial and seemingly jaw related issues, is all linked to these newer issues that have surfaced and which we were able to attain more info on after our recent visit, where, during the medical records recap we were alerted to the fact that he had kidney disease. Initially, we were only told that some debris was found in his urine and not to be concerned, as long as he is drinking/ getting enough water. We were "NOT" previously advised that he had kidney disease. This entire time, we could have had him on a special low protein, high fat diet. Recently, though, it turns out our cat had a stroke...which we determine elsewhere and considering the new symptoms; loss of muscle control, blindness, difficulty eating, kidney disease...amongst others. All of this, linked and pointed to the fact that this is a common issue for cats suffering from kidney disease. We will be taking him to my wife's old family vet, despite the hour+ drive. As for the rest of the staff, the front desk ladies are often times on the colder, inhospitable side of things, but the more often we went, the more "some" of them warmed up...though, they still have "their days." Often times, me and the wife would leave saying, "I don't get it, she used to be really nice, but these last few times she's been kind of grumpy..." or vice versa. There is one front desk lady, however, that we thoroughly enjoy there, but she took some warming up to, to get to that point. She often times helps out the doctors, so we occasionally have the pleasure of her acquaintance in the doctor's room as well. But one time we walked in with our older kitty, who was experiencing tooth problems, and an older lady we haven't had too much dealings with in the past, told us, "ohh, shame...it might be time to start considering a new kitty." She may have been trying to pitch one of the kittens they had in the front desk area, at the time...but our thought was, "What? These aren't trade in vehicles...and it's just a tooth issue!" We're not sure if she thought it was another cat, but it was inappropriate.
I love the CRAH! My family has taken our dogs there for years and now they care for my cats, Sam and Gus as well. All of our animals, even my cats, who despise the car ride getting there, love being at the clinic. Mostly because they always get so much attention when they go. They are even the reason I got Sam in the first place. The ladies up front always greet us with a hello and smile. They know exactly who I am when I walk in the door. I love Dr. Weber and his staff. They take the time to get to know both me and my pets more personally. They do an amazing job with them and trust me, my cats can be pretty ornery from time to time. My animal is their priority when they're with them. I've never felt rushed and he's always willing to answer all my questions, no matter how silly. Dr. Weber and his staff have always gone above and beyond for the care of my cats. They are always honest about what care should take place. I know that if I ever needed to leave them there they would be in the best hands being treated just as they would at home. I wouldn't trust anyone else with them. Go see them! They do a great job caring for your furry family members!
I have always felt very comfortable taking my kitties in and have never had any problems. I would highly recommend taking pets to this clinic!
Our family dog Chauncey has been in for several visits from routine shots to neutering. The staff and Dr's were helpful and professional at all times. Thanks CRAH
Our dogs and cats have been seen by the doctors at CRAH for years. They are all professional and caring. There's no one else we would ever trust with our furry family members!
