A Scam in Disguise: Be Cautious of These Vets
check_circlePros
- The prices they quoted me were way higher than what they promised, but I guess that's to be expected from a scam.
- The 'vet' showed up three hours late, which was a great way to start our appointment.
- He spent only two minutes examining my rabbit, which was plenty of time to give him a subpar diagnosis.
- He gave my rabbit a nasal rinse with chlorhexidine using a syringe, which was a reckless move that could've caused serious harm.
- He gave me nonsensical, unhelpful advice that didn't address my rabbit's actual issues, but hey, at least he tried.
- They charged me $4000, not $1500 as they'd promised, which was a huge shock and a huge financial burden.
- Their website is super misleading and doesn't accurately represent their services or prices, which is just great.
- The 'vet' seemed completely uninterested in helping my rabbit, which was pretty clear from the get-go.
- They don't care about their customers, which is evident from the way they treated me and my rabbit.

- I'm still fuming about my experience with these vets, and I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy.

- They're a total scam, and I'm not afraid to say it, which is more than I can say for the 'vet' who treated my rabbit.
- Their prices are way too high, and they don't offer any kind of value for money, which is just great.

Editor's Summary
I'm still fuming about my recent experience with these so-called vets. They're a total scam, and I'm not afraid to say it. My rabbit was getting worse, and I was desperate for help. I came across their website and gave them a call. They assured me they had a specialist in rabbits and quoted me prices: $500 for the consultation, and $1000 for the exam. But here's the thing: that $1000 only covered the exam, and I'd have to pay extra for any tests or treatment. The 'vet' showed up three hours late, and spent all of two minutes examining my rabbit. He then proceeded to give him a nasal rinse with chlorhexidine using a syringe. I was horrified - he clearly had no idea what he was doing. I told him about my rabbit's behavior, and he just gave me some nonsensical, unhelpful advice. To top it all off, he told me my rabbit was fine, and I should just continue with the treatment from the other clinic. But when I saw the bill, I was shocked. They'd charged me $4000, not $1500 as they'd promised.

I'm still fuming about my recent experience with these so-called vets. They're a total scam, and I'm not afraid to say it.
My rabbit was getting worse, and I was desperate for help. I came across their website and gave them a call. They assured me they had a specialist in rabbits and quoted me prices: $500 for the consultation, and $1000 for the exam. But here's the thing: that $1000 only covered the exam, and I'd have to pay extra for any tests or treatment. My rabbit was already under treatment at another clinic, and I was worried sick.
The 'vet' showed up three hours late, and spent all of two minutes examining my rabbit. He then proceeded to give him a nasal rinse with chlorhexidine using a syringe. I was horrified - he clearly had no idea what he was doing. I told him about my rabbit's behavior, and he just gave me some nonsensical, unhelpful advice. To top it all off, he told me my rabbit was fine, and I should just continue with the treatment from the other clinic. But when I saw the bill, I was shocked. They'd charged me $4000, not $1500 as they'd promised. I was in a state of panic, and I didn't even notice that the charges were handwritten on a piece of paper, not even on the official invoice.
Long story short, I paid the bill, but only after they'd left. It was only when I looked at the charges that I realized I'd been scammed. They'd added an extra $1500 for a 'consultation' and $1000 for 'nasal sanitation.' I hadn't asked for either, and it wasn't necessary. I immediately filed a complaint, but the operator just kept telling me they'd get back to me. Five days went by, and I was still waiting to hear back. Eventually, they told me they'd reviewed my complaint, but found no wrongdoing on the vet's part. But that was just the beginning of my nightmare.
My rabbit's condition worsened over the next two days, and I rushed him to another clinic. The diagnosis was clear - bilateral otitis. And get this: the treatment was a fraction of the cost of these scammers. I'm talking $1200, including a full exam, consultation, and treatment. This isn't just about the money, folks. These scammers put my beloved pet's life at risk. I'm still shaken by the experience, and I'm warning everyone out there - don't fall for their tricks. They'll fleece you for every penny, and they don't care who they hurt in the process. They're in it for the profit, plain and simple.
So, to all my fellow pet owners out there, be warned. These scammers are a menace, and they'll ruin you. Take your pet to a reputable clinic, and save yourself the heartache and financial ruin. It's just not worth the risk.
I'm still trying to process the whole ordeal, and I'm left wondering how they managed to get away with it for so long. The operator who hung up on me when I asked about their complaint process? They're just as guilty as the vet who scammed me.
