PLEASE do not let ANYONE that you know go to the Golden State Humane Society for any Vet Services!!! I am so shocked and appalled and countless ranges of furious with these people for what I experienced today! \r

After 3 times of trying to go to this vet (closest one to me promoted as being cost-effective) I finally get in today. After 4 hours I am seen (mind you that I am maybe the 10th person they have seen) and this guy I am sure is not a legal citizen QUIZES me to get ME to diagnose my dog and I asked if we could run any tests to be sure since there are multiple symptoms. He LAUGHS tells me it is just a minor flea infection/allergic reaction and lists a few things I will need to get before I leave. The entire time he lists these he is contradicting himself and makes it clear that he is TRYING to charge me as much as possible actually JOKES about this behind my back to a nurse and gives my dog a shot and prepares my bill of $156.\r
I found out the price later because I was so angry that I had to leave after hearing the last dog owner crying about her dog that had died and seeing the nurse treat her as if she were not even there: ""oh just wait over there"" not even anything remotely understanding in this woman's hard time...oh an the other girl was flat out bitchy to everyone all day. \r

I feel like I just asked my barista to diagnose my baby. Completely and utterly heart broken that I know this place is packed down the block everyday with puppies who may be sick and in pain and it is just a low end meat market. I am sure this information will help save someone the time stress disappointment and sadness it has caused me today.
