I had taken my dog here previously to be neutered and had excellent service with very kind people. The other day my dog cut his paw above the big pad but below the "thumb" pad, rather deeply- my husband saw it tonight and was surprised at the depth. I had wrapped it in a bandage to stop the bleeding and took him in the next day to see if he would need a stitch or two (he bled on my skirt in the car despite the bandage- not a lot but very notice-able). Dr Kingen removed the bandage, looked at it, and then wrapped it back up with a clean bandage, gave me different wrapping that would give a bit more. He said he could anesthetize him and sew it but that would get expensive. It shocked me that he didnt bother to clean it or look at it a bit more than the glance that he gave, just wanted to give him an antibiotic shot (which i refused- and he didnt push). He then proceeded to charge me $5 for the tefla pad (gauze pad) and small roll of wrapping material (the kind you get when you donate blood) and $50 for looking at his paw. REALLY???? Does he need stitches? I dont know. But I do know that I am going to find a different vet.

I have two German Shepherds and my youngest Shepherd was very thin and I was told my another Vet that she was fine. I listened to that Vet for awhile until my Mother who raised and showed German Shepherds told me something was wrong with her, she isnt gaining any weight. So a friend of mine suggested Dr. Kingen, and so I called and Dr. Kingen saw my German Shepherd and saved her life. Dr. Kingen told me she had lost muscle mass and she was starving to death, she was not getting any nutrients from the food she was eating, it was not digesting and everything she ate went right through her. Dr. Kingen gave me medicine and told me what to feed her and how many times a day, and within a week she already had gained weight. Now she is a "Hoss" according to my daughters. I cant thank him enough for taking the time and truly cares and knew what the problem was.

DR. Kingen saves my blue pits life. We purchased a sick puppy from a "sick" breeder, and after paying a good amount on him trying to figure out what was wrong, he was finnaly dignosed with demadetrine mange, dr kingen ordered an experimental med from germany, and it worked. hes now 2 and healthy as a horse. Only took upwards of 5 grand, but there was several vists, mulipl problems.

Amazing vet and great people! They really care about my pets, and arent pushy on treatment options. He gives the facts and then lets the owner make the choice. I moved several years ago, but I drive the 30 minute trip to their office. There are vets closer to me, but there no vet I trust as much as Dr. Kingen!

We live right across from that Vet, you would think they would accept us as new patients (strange concept to me anyway) ? NO, we do not accept new patients... we are so filled! The waiting room was empty, at least 3 people chatting with each other. If this is an indication of their service, NO thanks.

Dr. Kingen is a very caring veterinarian. When my Dachshund was very sick Dr. Kingen came in to his office special every other day, even on Sunday trying to save him. And his charges were unbelievably fair!
