Am/Pm Animal Hospital

Helped us and treated our big dog very well. AM/PM treated us fairly, and the dog appropriately. He is well again. It is always bad when your dog is ill, but it's worse when it is outside normal business hours. What will happen at the vet? Costs? Causes? Hard decisions? We have a normally very healthy exceptionally large golden retriever who had diarrhea and vomiting. He had to stay for a few days to get his system stable. We felt the charges were very reasonable. They kept us informed of his response to the treatment. We were concerned about the costs, and it isn't all about money. It is also about the severity of the illness or injury and the quality of life of our pet. We think AM/PM did a very good job working out our pet's health crisis with us.…

Keep up the Good Work AM / PM Animal Hospital. We use this clinic with some frequency and they have been great when we really needed them. Usually it’s on weekends or even holidays when our dogs get hurt or sick. These folks work nights, weekends and holidays so that people have somewhere to go when their pets get sick. The folks at AM / PM Animal Hospital have always been very professional and reasonable with their fees. In fact they are considerably less expensive than our local vet.

I must say that I am really incensed by Mr. "Willie P."'s review below. It is a terribly unfair review of a very good clinic.

While, it is possible, he might have had intentions of eventually paying for the services (assuming his dog lived). In most cases at Vet offices (also doctors, dentist), the reality is that when people say "I'll pay you later" they never do. In fact, in a large percentage of these encounters, it is actually a con, with the person seeking services really not having any intention of ever paying. It is unknown whether Willie actually intended to ever be responsible for the cost of providing care for his animal. The bottom line: the odds of someone presenting to a Vet office (or a doctor office) like Willie of ever paying his bill is very close to zero.

The good people that run this clinic must work weekends, holidays, and nights. They must pay for salaries, supplies, medications, the building, taxes, etc. etc. It is woefully unfair for Willie to lambast them for his own irresponsibility in not being able to care for his own pet.



It is hard to know whether Willie is just so immature as to not recognize that his own lack of responsibility is at fault, or is he just pissed off that his scam didn't work and feeling bad knowing that he is incapable of taking care of his own animal?

It cost a lot of money to deliver vet care. If you can't afford it, just don't have pets or put your animal down if you can't afford to take care of it when it is in pain.

Take Responsibility for Yourself and Your Pets ! The World Does Not Own You Free Vet Services, a Job that Pays You More than Your Worth or Anything Else !!

If you don't want your pet to die go somewhere else!. I brought my two year old Maine Coon cat to AM PM hospital explaining she'd been experiencing symptoms that had been treated by a prior vet as a respiratory infection. As a nurse I had doubts her symptoms were of that nature and it appeared to me the cat was choking. I didn't know if it was a piece of grass stuck in her throat, a polyp...or perhaps a tumor. Dr. Mulligan was the vet we saw. He was very condenscending and arrogant and insisted that she indeed had a respiratory infection and was 'too young' to have a tumor. (Initially he thought she was ten years old!). I explained she choked when she ate and every time I tried to give her medicine orally the same thing happened. His response was " she just doesn't like the taste of the medicine. Sometimes you just have to do something they don't like". I stated, "then you give it to her and see what I mean". The vet tech came in and used a pill pusher to get (yet another) antibiotic down her throat and she turned blue and started to choke. This still did not convince him and he remained nasty and mean about 'doing something I don't want to do'. After thirty two years in the nursing field that is the last problem I have with providing necessary medical care. She turned out to have a squamous cell tumor in the palate of her mouth and died some weeks later. I will never forgive his arrogance and insistence and hope people will read this and stay away from this place!!!…
