I know several people who used this low-cost clinic and have never had an issue. Hell, hundreds of people as the rescues all use it. Hadley did get incontinence after being spayed, but I've seen people on here whose dog have it and they didn't mention it being a low-cost clinic so I doubt that's related. The low-cost clinics are just nonprofits that function on donations and aren't out to make a profit and usually only do specific things. That's the main difference. They offer blood work and have resuscitation material should something go wrong, but yes, if something happened, you'd have to go to a vet that clinic that has more resources. Again, though, I worked with the animal shelter and several fosters there and never heard one thing go wrong. I think they get a bad wrap because people like feel like if they're spending more money, they're getting better services, but it's not true at all. These vets that DONATE their time, work or have worked at vets, so it could very well be the same vet you see on a regular basis, he's just doing volunteer work on that day.
It reminds me of the Indian Hospitals in Oklahoma. Native Americans receive free health care in Oklahoma, have state of the art hospitals, nicer than regular hospitals, but some snobby Native Americans think it's substandard and refuse to go...Their loss! Wish I qualified.
never judge the doctors and staff at a new fancy, state of the art building. the building can be outstanding. and the dr and staff can be not so outstanding. i have never considered myself a snobby indian, but there are some indian hospitals i will not go to. the looks of it has nothing to do with it.
sorry, i just vented.....
not snobby, maybe snotty indian
keeping Toby as inactive as possible is the challenge!
