Guest lavendergirl Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I have only used them for emergency service - no surgery involved - but I found them to be competent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boronia Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I took Penny there to get a lump that was waaayyy up her bum (yes I know that's not the precise medical term for where it was, but you get the picture) cut out, the vets were pretty competent, friendly and explained the procedure. One of the reception staff was a dragon...no smile or pleasantness when she took my $1000+ she was a mean natured woman, the receptionist that we saw on arrival at least had a little smile and something nice to say. If it wasn't for the excellent specialist surgery they perform, mine was a referral from my vet, I would go elsewhere...the reception staff don't seem to want to be pleasant and the one that was a little pleasant seemed hesitant to be nice...as if it was verboten. So yes...the vets are good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixie_meg Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I used them for emergency. They did a great job on his sliced foot. he had a general anaesthetic and the wound was very well repaired and healed well. this was about a year back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boronia Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Glad she is ok dandybrush, the hours go slowly when you have to wait before you can get them home, and reception don't let you put their special blankie :laugh: in the hospital-cage with them...suppose it's understandable, but you worry that your dog may think it has been abandoned.

Jed Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 There is a team of specialist vets there during "normal hours", and a different team of emergency vets there after hours ... and different teams of receptionists and nurses too. Hope all is well for you dandybrush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
