I recently moved back to the DeWitt area and was looking for a veterinary clinic to take my pet rat to for a possible upper respiratory infection. When I lived in the Ann Arbor area I always took my rats to Animal Kingdom and had great success. I called Zeebs Pet Clinic in DeWitt, my family has been taking our dogs their for years, to see if they would see a pet rat. No-go. But they recommended DeWitt Veterinary Hospital. When I called DVH they couldnt get me in until the next afternoon. I made the appointment and inquired what the visit fee would be. $44 for a check-up. $44 is more than I have paid in the past for my rats but the other alternative was to drive 30 min to Williamston and pay only slightly less. Thus onward I go to my appointment the following day... The front office staff was friendly but pretty unfamiliar with rats. I had to explain to two different techs how I was treating my rat at home and again when the Vet came into the room. When I finally get to see the vet, after wait about 30 min in the room, she implied my at home treatments for my rat were not a good choice. Now Im not a vet but I am a long time rat owner and am familiar with successful at home treatments for minor aliments like mites. The vet told me treating my rat at home with ivermectin was dangerous but immediately told me she could treat her with the same thing at the office but it would be "safe". As for the upper respiratory infection the vet determined she needed two antibiotics but their office, "that sees rats", didnt carry the medication in a small, concentrated enough formula and they would need to order from a special place for quite a bit of money. Quite a bit of money being $30 and $40 a piece and I would need to wait a couple days for it to be produced. At this point I felt like I had no choice but to treat my rat so I told them to order the meds. My previous experience with small pet vets or vets that say they treat small animals is they have antibiotics and other medications used to treat common aliments like upper respiratory infections on hand. They simply measure out the quantity you need and its about $10 per medication, sometimes a little more. Overall my bill for a visit, skin scrap test to rule out mites, and the medication cost was $140. Compared to any other visit to the vet this was by far the most expensive. It is frustrating a vet would say they see and treat small animals but they are clearly not prepared. Not to mention make a pet owner feel uncomfortable treating their pet at home with the same medication they offer at the vet. This vet may be great for dogs and cats but Id skip them if you have anything unusual. Next time Ill try Cedar Creek in Williamston or drive back down to Ann Arbor.
