Worst vet experience ever--brought a new (shelter) puppy to Dr. Tucker for general exam and treatment of Demodex. She said she needed to work up a treatment plan and would call me later that day. 2 weeks went by with no word on the care plan OR the results of a stool sample I had left. I followed up with their office twice before she called me back herself and with a chuckle said her tech was supposed to call me and forgot!! My dog has Mange and needs care and your tech forgot. I had my puppy's records sent to another hospital where they informed me she had Giardia--a contagious parasite that Bloomingdale tested her positive for had never called me to tell me about!!! Its not only contagious for our other animals, but also to my husband and I. Now, I have to treat BOTH my dogs for this condition and it has cost me $$$ in repeating tests and exams to get their health straightened out. Not to mention the puppy has double fungal ear infections--another oversight during Dr. Tuckers exam. To top it all off, they are charging almost double the fees for the same vaccines as other animal hospitals--I paid $73/shot for my dogs lymes vaccine and it costs $32/shot at the new hospital. Plus--she didn't have the know enough to pre-test my dog before administering the vaccine, which I've learned is very dangerous for him. If you care about your animals you will not leave them in the care of Bloomingdale Animal Hospital or Dr. Tucker.
