My dog was very sick with distemper. They wanted me to pay $250 for a test to diagnose it, but when I went to another vet they said it was pointless since there was no other disease that caused facial ticks like our puppy had and they were 100% sure it was distemper. Glad I didn't get suckered into paying for an unncessary test at Buttercup.
They also made me come back to the clinic to get a dosage for a medication I had to buy elsewhere instead of just telling me over the phone. I bought exactly what they told me to get, and they had my dog's weight because she had been there earlier that day for a checkup. I ended up waiting for 25 minutes in a room before having to leave. They called me to apologize but that I would have to come back and refused to give me the dosage over the phone.Then, I called another vet and got the dosing with no problem.
In short, they want to charge you an arm and a leg for unnecessary costs and have no consideration for your time. I'm taking my pet's care elsewhere.
