!!BEWARE!!
I'll start by saying that Dr. Kumar and his staff do NOT listen to the customer at ALL, well at least not me.
I called to make an appointment to have my 8 week old F2 Savannah kitten her 3-way shots and a general checkup. I specifically asked if they had killed vaccine shots. Savannah cats need to have killed vaccines, if given modified lived virus vaccines they will actually contract the virus and they will DIE! So anyhow, I called and the receptionist said they carry them.. so I went ahead and made an appointment. I go in for my appointment a few days later and guess what, they don't have the killed virus vaccines and they don't even cary them, not sure why the receptionist told me they had them. I wasn't too bothered by that even though they wasted my time coming in. Dr. Kumar's assistant told me they would order the shots I needed and I could come back in to have my Savannah vaccinated.
A week later I brought her back in after being told the shots were in. Dr. Kumar comes in and I asked him about the shots and he proceeded to argue with me about how Savannah cats are fine being vaccinated with modified live virus vaccines which is totally not true. After going round and round with him how it's not safe he basically told me I didn't know what I was talking about. Needless to say I didn't have the shots done. They didn't even order the shots I needed and lied to me again after saying they had came in. I walked out of their office vowing to never visit his establishment again.
This is a very serious concern because not only are they not listening and lying to their customers but Dr. Kumar was totally fine with wanting to give a kitten shots that would kill her. Thank God I knew exactly the type of shots my Savannah needed otherwise she would of been given improper vaccines that most likely would of resulted in her passing away.
I will NEVER ever consider taking any animal of mine to Dr. Kumar even if it was a serious emergency. I'd highly suggest looking around for another more caring vet to help your pets stay healty.
Thanks for wasting my time and almost killing my kitten in the process Dr. Kumar and his staff!
