Business ProfileforValencia Animal Hospital

This place is all about money, not compassion. I wanted a written prescription for a medication the vet was prescribing, and instead the tech came out with a bottle of pills. She was instructed to lie and tell me that their office was the only place I could get them because they were specifically for dogs. The ******* pharmacy has the same medication for half the price. The vet said I had given verbal permission to buy them from her. However, at the time I had no choice. It was either buy them or leave without a prescription. Also, they initiated a "tech fee" that originally started at about $7, then went to $13.50. Now they charge $20. I had both my dogs there at the same time for the same shots and was charged $20 for each dog. (Other vets I talked to said they never heard of tech fees). If you're the kind of pet owner who's willing to shell out hundreds of dollars without questioning why, you'll fit in nicely here. If you dislike greed, go somewhere else. This practice doesn't even offer senior discounts. Doctors, whether human or vets, are responsible for repairing things they did that caused illness, suffering or death - as long as the condition is directly related to the original treatment. If there's no statute of limitations, I'd file a complaint. As far as I'm concerned, this business is a big fat zero.
