Too many staff, too busy, curt and insensitive today, time to move my dog elsewhere.The doctor is nice, explains well.I always feel staff are only polite when another client is standing near. Telephone manners need work. People always return if they feel respected.I tried to explain that I have a client with MS and can't go to the bathroom without my help, so I must give my office enough notice, for them to find a fill in, but no time to explain that, plus I used up all my PTO. (No work no pay).I was told my dog comes first, make a plan. They both come first.This afternoon was my only time off until Friday afternoon as I work all day and evenings other days. All they needed to do was take a bandage off his foot, because they made it too tight, it was supposed to come off yesterday.I asked to get a call if there is a cancellation, but they're so busy, doubt they would have called and doubt there would be a cancellation.I found a friendlier place, closer. They were too far anyway.When I called to ask them to send my dogs history over to the new place she got impatient when I paused for literally a second to put my glasses on to see the email in my diary.I accidentally called Tennessee (Grok made a mistake) when I was calling around to find someone who sounded friendly, the lady in Tennessee was so friendly and charged a fraction, availability great, no third degree. I told her how friendly, wish she were closer, she laughed with me, what a pleasant exchange.

Would not recommend this vet. Never liked how they take the dogs into the back where you can’t see them when they give care or as simple as giving them a shot. We brought our dog there for years and when he started having the issue in his back leg area there was never a clear answer on what was wrong. It changed from ACL, to hip dysplasia, to arthritis. And about a year later was confirmed that there was a mass which was cancerous confirmed by another vet. This could have been caught earlier but the diagnosis was always different every time we went into east side and they never really looked into it even though we went in for the same issue multiple times. I feel that they failed us. We switched vets and were told our dog probably only had a few months to live due to how big the tumor was. He lived probably another six months until we had to put him down about a month ago. He was 11 years old and fought so hard.

Robin Souza doesn’t care about your pet or you. She doesn’t listen to your perspective or concerns. She along with other staff neglected to figure out what was wrong with my older dog, who had cancer, we later had to put him down with the help of another vet. He was 11 and healthy before all this. We voiced our concerns about him and she would find an answer within minutes that was different every time we came in. I have brought my puppy to her and the same situation has occurred where she doesn’t listen to the symptoms that the dog was having and only accepts the diagnosis she came up with as the sole cause…that is until the next time you return and it’s a whole different and new problem!I’m highly disappointed with her services specifically, she is arrogant and dismissive.

To say I am disappointed with the service my dog has received today is a massive understatement. I called to get my itchy dog prednisone to help alleviate his constant itching and pain. Was told no problem, booked an appointment with the intention of getting said prescription. When my husband showed up, he explained how we have tried EVERYTHING to help our pup from changing his food to having an itchy dog pannel done at thia vet in Oct to making him wear t-shirts. Dr Souza didnt care. She disregarded everything my husband said and harped on the fact "it could be heartworms". Tried to say we needed another $300+ itch panel even though the last one came back clean. Proceeded to give attitude when he declined a heartworm check. Tried to take our dog to the back for his injection after insisting all this testing and frankly there was no trust she wasn't going to do tests then charge us behind our back! We go our pups medical records and WILL NOT being seeing dr Souza again

The blonde middle-aged woman standing on the bench is very grumpy. I'm glad I don't leave my dogs with such grumpy, low-energy people.
