I bought my 5 year old Yorkie to Oradell, with what I was told was a pretty normal condition that she had, but they wanted to keep her there for x-rays, observation and IV. After one day, I picked her up and a bill for $2,000.00. I don't mind the money, but I don't think their care is any better than a good vet. The following week she developed the same symptoms, and I brought her to our regular vet. He treated her, different meds, great exam, and everything came to a grand total of $92.00. So, I would say Oradell is a great hospital if it's a true emergency, but make sure you have pet insurance because your bill will be more than if a human went to an ER! I am a firm believer in pet insurance, it's worth the money..a small fee each month, and definitely comes in handy if you have to bring your friend to Oradell. Great hospital, very high priced.
