Click to report rating    3/3/14   3     4     3     1   I took our puppy in as she was passing blood in her urine so naturally I was worried. They saw her right away, prescribed some antibiotics, gave us a free can of dog food and sent us on our way. Oh yeah, 214 DOLLARS later!!! I had a coupon from the internet for $30 off or it would have been $244. I would not recommend them to anyone!!! Took total advantage of the situation! RID: 50273
     8/21/11   1     3     2     2   I went to this vet's office for my exotic pet corn snake. The reseptionists were snobby when it came to leaving but comming in was fine. The doctor thought at first my snake was a male ready to breed and that's why she wasn't eating. I told him that when I got her she was an adolecent female. He didn't believe me untill he sexed her with a PAPER CLIP!! WARNING:if your reptile vet dose this it may puncture the female's reproductive system from the flat paper clip and destroy it with a good chance of killing her!!! (EVERY probe used on your animals should have a rounded end.) He then decided to do blood work and said she had a fungal infection due to her cage being dirty. This is not true because I scoop her duke when is present in her habatat and clean her cage every month. The reptile doctor is rude and dosn't believe what you say. He dose not follow proper procedures for a diagnostic evaluation. My snake still suffers from a hunger strike every spring so I force feed her small pinkies RID: 27061
Click to report rating    6/20/11   5     5     5     5   Perhaps the best Vets I have ever met. I have been a client of Dr. Murphy since 1972 and I have always recommended him to friends. Convenient location, very experienced and caring doctors and staff. Excellence in every way. RID: 25722
Click to report rating    9/24/07   1     3     3     1   I would never recommend this Vet to anyone: The Vets don't know how to listen, and the receptionists are rude- I've spread this story to our neighborhood meetings, any UPMC-employed pet owner that we know. In mid-October, I specifcally asked Dr. Miggins to provide vaccinations for boarding our dog for the next 6 months. When I went to board her in January, the kennel called and said that they could not take her because she was not up-to date on her distemper shot. Not only did Dr. Miggins NOT acknowledge that he had made this mistake, he advised that we had to bring her in for a regular office visit ($42) to get her shot. While I already argued that we had paid for an office visit less than 3 months ago, would be willing to pay for the necessary shot, and ASKED SPECIFICALLY to have her ready for the kennel--he chose to ignore me. I promptly found a friendlier vet, who instead charged a "tech fee" of $15, if a vaccine needed to be administered in between office visits. Terrible Vet! RID: 5987
Click to report rating    4/18/07   5     5     5     4   Of course all vets are expensive and who really wants to shop around for 2nd opinions, right? The staff was very consoling to me when I had to put my kitty down, in fact, I called them because I did'nt think she was going to make it- despite the fact they were booked for the day- they told me to bring her in. And when I maxed out my credit card, they were very patient and let me use their phone to do what I needed to pay the bill. RID: 3534
