I am the same person who wrote in regarding my 4 year old cat Chloe and how I had her treated at Angel Animal Hospital / Dr. Singh. Chloe passed away on Sun, Jan 31, 2010. After all was said and done I spoke to someone who the second I began to describe how Chloe vomited saliva and the bile, and before I could say another world she said, "Chloe had fatty liver disease." I stopped, this was one of 6 things two vets had told me. The story goes on, but all I want to say is, if Dr. Singh had talked to me, explained to me what I needed to do to get Chloe eating again, I could have stopped this fatty liver disease from taking her life. I know that now. Dr. Singh would probably argue, he'd say is that you need to run multiple tests (About $500) to start to rule everything out. Wrong! The very first thing Dr. Singh should have done was help me get Chloe eating again because when an animal doesn’t eat, they get fatty liver disease and they die, quickly. Instead, he choose to withhold the critical care information, which would have required me to force feed Chole liquid food every two to three hours until she started eating on her own again. He never ever gave me that information and the longer Chloe did not eat, the more like it was she was going to die, which is exactly what happened. I now know this for certain. I’m not saying I’m 100% certain Chloe didn’t have another underlying problem (but I doubt it) but she did die from something that could have been take care of if I had been given the information on what to do, and I was never given that information.) Now myself and Chloe’s companion (Olive, who is 14 years old) are grieving. Olive cared for and preened Chloe since she was six weeks old. They slept curled up together on the bed. Olive is every bit as sad as I am and it breaks my heart even more than anyone can imagine. Chloe was the life of this home and she will be missed deeply. This did not have to happen and I know it and I know anyone who understands what fatty liver disease is and what you have to do to stop it, and it must be taken care of immediately or the pet will die. I might have needed instructions and what to do, but Dr. Singh denied me that information. He’s not a doctor I would recommend anyone to simply based on what I now know for a fact. My information can be supported by experts and other vets. I gave Dr. Singh the symptoms, he did gave a terrible, tiny, next to nothing exam and then he came out with the list of tests, about $500 worth. He then had his staff call me the next day. He knew I was not going to have good news. And he knows when a cat isn’t eating, isn’t going to the litter box, is not drinking water is developing fatty liver disease and he knows what he need to tell me what to do. He took xrays, my bill was $187, but that wasn’t enough for him (no obstruction, no inflammation). The cat needed to be treated for fatty liver disease! He knew she could die from this if not treated and she died! Beware! In this economy there are some very desperate people and today, vets are very desperate.

I have been coming to Angel Vet since 2007, when I got my first cat. I made the mistake of using Banfield first and had to have an emergency surgery for my cat. Banfield wanted double the price, and the reason I needed surgery for my cat was because of them so I decided to take Lexi to Angel Vet. Dr. Singh did the surgery half the price and fixed the problem the first time. I will never take my animals anywhere else. I now have 2 other cats and a dog. My dog has had several skin issues due to allergies and Dr. Singh is always giving advice on how to naturally correct the problem before he advises you to use medicine. He has always been that way. Him and the other Vet that works there now, Dr. Sabeetah (sorry if misspelled) are wonderful. They are both very kind and gentle with the animals. They never make you feel like youre a waste of time or a bother. They have fixed my aninals problems the FIRST time, instead of repeat and constant visits. The Staff is always wonderful and so nice too. Angel vet now has a grooming service available at times and they do an excellent job of clipping nails and keeping them trimmed for a reasonable amount of money. The prices are reasonable and anytime I have needed to bring my pet in for an emergency, Dr. Singh has been available. Thank you Dr. Singh and staff for the amazing job you do! As for the one star reviews about the horrible experience- no one is perfect. Dr. Singh does everything he can to help you. Sometimes mistakes can be made, but the doesnt make him the worst vet ever. That makes him human. He obviously is doing something right since none of my animals have ever gotten worse with his care. I have also brought strays in that he looked at free of charge to me because of his love of animals. I took kittens to the other Angel vet one time and the vet there acted like I was wasting her time and bothering her so I left. Dr. Singh and Dr. Sabeetah (spelling again, sorry) are amazing vets. They know what theyre doing and usually diagnose the problem the first time they see it and fix it as quickly and as cheaply as they can.

I had the most amazing experience ever. My cat had crystals forming in his urethra ,I had to take him to Specialist which they charged me almost more than 3000 $ just to keep him alive.. I couldnt afford to do the surgery there , I called his VET(the only reason I didnt go to him first was bec he was a sunday after hours) Dr Singh, he told me to bring him in .. I took my cat in, HE gave me so much discount on the surgery.He Literally did the surgery for a price that no one would ever do.. THis doctor is not about money. He loves animals , he loves his job and HE WANTS To help.. since surgery he had seen my cat so many many times and cared for him. He has been so patient took my cat in every time I felt sth was wrong..kept him in there and cared for him..I can swear .. if i had taken him to any other hospital My cat would have been dead because i couldnt afford the fees. for holdays i went out of MI ,I Left my cat with them meanwhile I wasnt here so he would be in good hands little I know he had to have an emergency surgery , Dr.Signh had to sedates him and perform the surgery on him . Dr singh never charged me for this emergency surgery which I cant thank him enough . I love This doctor and I love his staff..all the girls there are so loving so kind .. they love my cat and call and check on him all the time.. I would highly recommend him to every one .. before u make a drastic decision such as to put ur animal to sleep or getting a surgery .. plz go to them and Only see him.. He is the only one I trust :) You WILL LOVE THEM And YOU WIll LOVE HIM.. I still drive 1 hr from where I live to his office..I WOULD never change to any other office. My cat is now Healthy/happy and normal and I OWE it to them:) Thank you ANgel Hospital TO save my cat and THANK YOU DR. Signh :)
