I took my cat here for a second opinion. The vet here told me the exact same thing as the first one and provided the same cheaper treatment.
I won't go anywhere else. When my husband and I moved to SC, we drove our pets here for their care. They took care of all my animals as a child and now as an adult as well. Twice they went to parents' home to put down our ancient dogs rather than have them come into the clinic. Very knowledgeable, very loving, very trustworthy. The office is clean, the staff is caring and considerate, the doctors are truly there for the animals and treat clients' pets as their own. They always take time to educate us on they whys and whats of our pet care and help us make informed and educated decisions which fit with our family. My animals have always loved the staff and docs who make sure to spend time giving them pets and loves (and treats for the dogs!). I could write on and on to sing their praises, but suffice to say that this a truly great veterinary office.
I am extremely pleased with the emergency care rendered to my pet. Dr. Porter has been fantastic this week, he is absolutely outstanding, he did us very well and provided an excellent referral. I think he's the best. Dr. Hawkins is also very experienced. The nurses and technicians care a lot about their work (Hi Kenny!) and are also superb. WBAH's facility is also well maintained with ample space and light. The level of cleanliness here is outstanding, and important because all of our pets are sensitive to the smells of other animals. I am certain that my pet has been comfortable in the facility and around all of the good staff here.
Overall, we usually have a good experience when going to this vet. My cat is TERRIFIED of the vet, and usually pees all over himself before we get out of the waiting room. They are always so sweet and patient with him. Last time, they even bathed him after he had an accident, and cleaned up the floor and his cage for me (even though I tried to take care of it myself!). We used to have a large boxer, and sometimes it seemed like the doctor was intimidated by him, and slightly stand offish when checking him out. More recently, I went with a friend to get her new puppy checked out, and the female vet that did the checkup was relatively rude to us. We're both kind of young, so I'm not sure if she assumed we were clueless about animals or what. She kept referring to the dog as "he" even though my friend corrected her several times, and she lectured us about everything she assumed my friend was doing wrong (before asking anything). Which is not a big deal, I'm sure she was just looking out for the dog. Anyway, the girls there have always been soo sweet and really seem to love animals. Compared to other vet experiences, I would definitely recommend this vet.
