Dear Animal Hospital

Please be wary of this vet. My sister took in her 4 mos old puppy for a Lyme Disease Vaccination which is not a necessity for where she lives. It was part of the puppy package that she bought & she thought it was a great deal because it includes all the vaccinations, spaying, antibiotics etc for $800. We have a new puppy also & our bill will be $500 for the necessary vaccinations (no lyme disease vac) & neutering.

Anyways, after the Lyme Disease vaccine was injected, the vet did a quick exam on the pup & found a lump on it’s back. My sister was quite shaken when he said it could be serious & he should do a biopsy & blood tests. He also mentioned that her free 6 wk insurance expired that day.

So my upset sister called to renew her pet insurance for $45 month & tried to listen to the spiel about the costs & thought it was around $200. But when she picked up her pet, she was handed a bill for $800!!

She has now spent $1600 for vet bills in one month & will spend over $500 in insurance payments. My sister does not have a lot of money. I fear that this vet will bleed her dry if she continues to go there.
