VCA Dunmore Animal Hospital

originally posted 10÷15÷14: just got back from vca dunmore. i think my dog is dying. he choked all night and we made sure we were at the vca animal hospital as soon as it opened!
arnie, front desk operator, waited on me and told me with hated pleasure, that they would NOT see my dog unless i paid the $ 217 i owe them from 2 months ago plus today’s visit! i could see she enjoyed saying that. wrong person for that job! compassion at it’s finest. it’s ok to spend all of your money all of your animals lives there, but fall behind and your animal doesn”t count for a thing when you really need the help! HORRIBLE! i have to take him to the emergency vet in clarkes summit now. they sound compassionate at least!
but don’t hold your breath! ‘Veterinary Referral & Emergency Center’ chinchilla, pa.
(not on Unilocal) is there strictly for the MONEY! it doesn’t matter if you paid mortgages, cars, if your in business etc… MONEY FIRST! should be their motto! if you can’t pay — you suffer. they don’t care! you and your dying dog can leave now! i guess my dog will just have to die suffering! sick to my stomach!
my dog had to be put down. was it that hard to just tell me and help me?!
the ‘dr’ at the emergency referral in chinchilla, pa. actually told me my dog was ‘as healthy as a horse.’ i’m crying knowing my puppy was dying and she’s telling me this with a estimate of $ 675 for more tests!
instead of telling me, ‘any dog at thirteen is old. and he may really be sick’ — took my $ 95 and sent me and my dying puppy out the door!
(VCA) these people have been caring for and receiving payment from us since these dogs were born! they are now 13 & 11 years old. in all of those years i owe $ 200 for only 2 months. these people didn’t have the compassion for my dog when he needed it most. disgusting.
new motto idea for veterinary medicine everywhere:
«OUR COMPASSION RUNS AS DEEP AS YOUR POCKET!»
disturbing to say the least.
