I took my dog Maggie on night into Jordan River Animal Hospital, I was worried that they wouldn't do a good job, or I wouldn't be able to afford the emergancy for Maggie. When I arrived at Jordan River Animal Hospital Dr. Silkman was there and waiting for my Maggie, just as the tech said when I called previously to tell them I was on my way. Before I knew it Dr. Silkman was back up, and informed me what was going on, what my options were, and asked what i was able to do for my dog. I appreciated him being straight forward and direct with me, and if i didn't understand a medical term, he would explain it to me so i could understand everything he was telling me. Dr.Silkman worked quickly on my dog. Surprisingly I was able to take my dog home that night. The next day I recieved a call a call from Dr. Silkman himself, asking how my Maggie was doing. I have never had a Dr fallow up like that, even though he didn't seem to show emotion or anything while I was there the night before, It was comforting that I knew he did care about my Maggie and told me I could give him a call with any questions anytime. I sure did take good use of that comment. I returned for a recheck and still felt welcomed. I now transferred vets and both my hound dogs go there for everything, even just for yearly vaccines. Even though they are a little more expensive, in the long run i know they don't cut corners and it will be worth it just to be able to expand my family's (my dogs Maggie & Molly) time with me just a little longer. Jordan River Animal Hospital is the only vet I would ever take my pets.
