Seems great with animals, and has good credentials, but is terrible with people... I took my cat in to see him, and while he was great with my cat, he was not personable with me, and aside from asking me questions and never looking me in the face, he acted almost like I wasn't even there. The previous review states that he is "obviously not in it for the money" but you could have fooled me: I had a 5pm appt time, I called at 5 minutes til and said I'd be 5 minutes late, so I get there at 5:05, and he hasn't finished with his previous pet/pet owner (not a big deal) until it was about 20 minutes later that he finally acknowledged my existence and invited us back to the exam room. I understand that doctors and vets can be late, that's fine...inconvenient (when you have a 3 month old breast feeding infant at home waiting for you), but fine. However, never once in all my years of owning pets and taking them to a vet have I been CHARGED A FEE for running over our 1 hour allowed appt time...especially when it was his fault we were late (not seeing me until 5:30) AND he continued to ask me questions past our appt end time (6pm) while never notifying me we were past the time AND never notifying me that he was charging me $1/minute for it. It was not until AFTER he had charged my card and I was examining my receipt that I noticed. Most expensive second opinion I've ever gotten. After that treatment, I went running back to my previous vet and thanked my lucky stars that his bedside manner was merely 'less than jovial'. All I wanted was a vet in Snohomish who cracks a smile once in a while, and still knows their field, but apparently THAT is too much to ask. And while searching for it, I managed to throw $100 down the toilet because Dr. Yearout didn't have any different ideas or diagnosis for my cat than the previous vet.

World renowned, really cares, obviously not in it for the money.
