My 75 year old father saved a cat that was dropped off at his house & brought it in his home and made his pet. The cat had lived with him for years. My father had the cat spayed couple years ago. The cat, Prissy, had been to Broadway Vet Hospital before for treatment of a place on her neck. My father took the cat to Dr. Harmon on Friday and was told the cat was infested with fleas. It was an indoor cat, never outside. He had never seen fleas on Prissy, in the house, on his dog or on himself. When Dr. Harmon seen the cat on a Friday (they close early Fridays) she said the cat needed to be put under because the cat was too difficult to handle. Previously when they treated the cat she did not need to be put under for treatment of the place on her neck. Dr. Harmon was worried about putting cat under due to her condition. Dr. Harmon than put the cat under, treated for infestation of fleas and sent cat home with my father. My father paid the $350 and took the cat home. The cats temperature was 94 and cold when she sent the cat home, still in shock from the procedure and meowing. The cat died in five hours. No follow up call until the following Monday when my father told them the cat was dead. Dr. Harmen was rude to my father and rude to me when I called. I had to ask her twice not to raise her voice to me. My father is very upset about this cat he spent everyday with. He is retired and spends a lot of time with his animals. He did not know the cat had fleas or would of treated the cat. No one had seen any fleas on Prissy. My father spent $350 of his social security monies to save Prissy so he definitely cared about his cat. Dr. Harmon was insensitive, heartless, cruel and extremely rude!

First they made us wait for our routine shot visit for a dog having puppys. I understand. Then the shot had a bad reaction and my cat couldnt walk the next day. They didnt want to see us cause they were booked??? Guess only we have to wait. Finally they took him in. Kept him all day and didnt charge a dime? Guessing they messed something up. Then like an idiot I took my poor dog there for knee surgery. Lasted 6 whole months. The entire time I said he isnt doing as well as you said he would. Was told I have a dramatic breed. I do but that isnt a 6 month excuse OR while the knee already needs surgery again. My poor dog has to go through another huge surgery and I have to pay for another expensive procedure due to pure ignorance. Found out after it failed its not recommended for large dogs. Mine is 86lbs. Nor is the method used recognized by other surgeons. I guess not when it only lasts 6 months and now the piece used is inflamed.

I have been taking my dog here since we got her. They are always very helpful and accommodating in making an appointment, and pleasant and knowledgeable when we are there.

I would not recommend Dr. Harmon who told the owner his cat would be ok and it died 5 hours later. She does seem to work well with pets or their owners.

Its expensive but all vet care is, Ive had only good experiences. And it beats driving to Harrisonburg when a cat is dying or a dog needs shots.
