I took my puppy there for a check of her leg. They told me she had a fracturd patella, ligament damage, hip and back problems. theytold me to leave her overnight for xrays ect. they gave me a $1047.00 estimate I left her there an when I gothome deided to go and pick her up. They refused saying they were closed. I would have to pick her up in the morning. I went in the morning and they gave me a $435.00 bill for things they alleged to do overnight. they would not give me my dog unless i paid. I called the police and they stated that they have been more times than not I was forced under duress to pay the bill. When i got home I looked at the tests performed and they were not even for my dog. They charged me for someone elses pets. I went to the district attorneys office and she strongly urges all of you to come to her office so they can contact the attorney generals office for their fraud and pay the piper. DO NOT GO THERE! THEY ARE THIEVES

Had a number of bad experiences here, they tend to do a lot of unnecessary testing and procedures. My dog swallowed an ice cream stick, my regular vet suggested we wait to see if it passed, concerned we went here for a second opinion, they scared the hell out of us and next thing we were in for all kinds testing, an overnight stay, and a surgical procedure to remove it. Not only was all this very expensive, but to top it all off, they made us feel bad, practically blaming us for the incident. We are very careful with our boy and would go to the end of the earth to protect him. These people see that and take advantage of you.

Oh my god, my puppy had a a rash, they took stool samples, blood test, cultures etc. Could not find anything for 6 weeks, my bill was already crazy. My friend recommended me to a vet of her's in 1 min the other vet figured it out right away, showing me proof under the microscope etc. Like magic i found the answer i've been wanting. She also took a stool sample and found gardia, while Central vet took it too but no call, no nothing because they say "if we dont call they your dog is ok, if we do call you then he has a problem.." WTF.. This place is horrible, the interns are great but the doctors change so many times you dont know who is who anymore.. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE EVEN IF THE PET STORE RECOMMENDS THEM.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$You bring your pet in for a check up, and they say they sense something wrong. They quickly take your pet away from you and perform every test imaginable. After a few days you get your pet back and a bill for SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS. So what did they find wrong with the pet? NOTHING!!!! It seems to me that this place likes to perform as many unnecessary tests as possible. They are making a fortune scaring people and performing tests on completely healthy pets. They drag it out too so they can charge every imaginable hospital fee. Plan on remortgaging your house to afford these quacks.
