[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've visited a ton of practices over the years and the only ones I felt were really rip-offs were Old Dominion Animal Hospital and Region Veterinary Referral Service (Springfield).  Everywhere else I've taken my dogs has been very transparent about costs, priorities, and likely outcomes.  When people like OP complain, I tend to think they've either ignored a problem for too long and now it's a major issue, or their expectations for what's involved in pet ownership in general are way, way lower than mine.[/quote]

I have no experience with the 2 vets listed here, but I have also had great experiences with the veterinarian that I use - McLean Animal Hospital - most recently we had an emergency with my cat and they were wonderful. Not cheap, but they know him, they were very compassionate (the cat is on the mend), understanding, and allowed me to call the next day to make my payment because I ended up needing to transfer the cat to a different vet for overnight care/surgery that they helped me schedule for the next day. They aren't cheap, but they also don't demand unnecessary treatment, have excellent hours/availability, and every vet we've seen has been wonderful. I don't find their prices to be unreasonable or overly expensive.[/quote]
