I took my ONE YEAR OLD cat in on a friday who had a blockage and couldn't urinate properly. He told me he needed emergency surgery and it would be $600 which emotionally I agreed to. He did the surgery and the unblocking worked but he told me that i needed to take him home because he couldn't monitor him over the weekend and bring him back on monday. He said his kidneys might come back because he was so young. I took him home and my cat was blocked again almost immediately and suffered all weekend without being able to urinate. My two young kids cried all weekend watching this cat suffer. I called the 24 hour emergency clinic over the weekend because there was no contact number for Dr. Bang and they told me he should have NEVER let me go home with a cat like that because his bladder could burst which would be an excruciating death and that he should have been monitored for a minimum of 3-4 days to make sure he would stay unblocked. They also said that if this had been done, the cat may have survived and his kidneys may have come back because of his young age. I feel very strongly that he was negligent for making the mistake of not telling me its friday and the cat will need constant care all weekend and I am not available so go there in the first place and i believe this mistake cost me my cats life. He should have recommended we take the cat there in the first place instead of taking my money and running. I couldn't afford to have this exact procedure done at the 24 hour clinic for another $1000 (which is what they would charge) when I had already invested $600 with Dr. Bang. When I went to complain early Monday morning he yelled at me while I cried with my dying cat on the table. He is the most rude, selfish, horrible and only out for the money vet I have ever met. The worst ever. I ended up having to take my cat to another vet and put him to sleep. I wouldn't recommend this ""doctor' to my worst enemy. He has no compassion for the animal or the person. He is only in it for the cash. It was a hard and sad lesson for me that I hope nobody ever has to go through.
Pros: NONE!!!!!
Cons: HORRIBLE VET
