I took my dog to the vet today at Roberts Animal Clinic in Moss Point this morning. Dr. Roberts was booked so I called Escatawpa Animal Clinic to get my dog a rabies vaccination and have Hank’s nails clipped. The girl at the desk said it would be fifteen dollars and told me to come on up, which I did. There was only one other person there at the Escatawpa Clinic. After waiting about 45 minutes, they called me back, the young girl and I talked a minute with the rabies vaccination lying on the table and after 25-30 minutes, she left and took my dog with her. My normal vet, Dr. Roberts, administers shots in the room, but the people there didn’t and I honestly don’t know if Hank was given his vaccination or not and nobody mentioned that the vaccine was ever administered. When she came back, she was ready to let me go and I asked about the nails getting clipped. She said “oh yeah, sorry”...and took him back out. To make a long story short, for a $15 rabies shot and a $10 nail clipping, I mentioned to the doctor if he could put some drops in Hank’s ears for ear mites and instead, he spent 25 minutes on cleaning Hank’s ears, and it was extremely rough. Hank screamed out three different times and I’ve never seen a vet so rough with an animal. Hank was hurting and the more the doctor shoved Hank’s head into the table, the more mad I got. So, I was so very thankful when it was over. Hank was in distress and scared. We walked out of the room to pay for the services and this is what I received: Exam (Unscheduled) $50 / Rabies $15 / Ear Cleaning $15 / Ivermectin .10 / Nail Trim $10 / Tresaderm Solution $23.75 for a total of $113.85 When all I asked for was a Rabies shot, nail clip and two drops in Hank’s ears...I’ve used both Escatawpa Animal Clinic and Roberts Animal Clinic in Moss Point and as a 34 year professional in our community, I’ve learned who has a real heart for the animals, the families that bring their animals there and the doctors who should treat those animals because they feel too. With the treatment today and the high bill for doing very little, I know exactly who to trust!
