[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Been a pet owner since 2003 and feel most vets are overpriced scams in NoVa at least. [/quote] The vet price tag can be staggering (ask me how I know). One of our pets recently had a medical situation. Went through recommended tests and we thought we had it under control. A month later it recurred. The vet on call that day started running most of the same tests from a month earlier. And, while I'm sure that Delta could have provided some information, after they did not show anything new, we finally asked her to move on to some of the other things we had discussed and stop repeating tests. She agreed. The price tag was still astronomical. But we were able to keep it down a bit by NICELY discussing our concerns with her. As an aside, the pet seems to be doing much better as we finally determined a cause and have a path forward. We will need to manage the condition his whole life but mostly through some cheap meds and diet.[/quote]
