A little less than a year and a half ago, I brought my dog to this vet. She was not doing too well and I needed to know the specifics of her pain/suffering. I was informed with everything I already knew. She is "old, has cataracts", but other than that, she is "fine". Her "white blood count is just a little high". "It will be hard for her to walk simply because of her age". I did NOT need to go to the vet for what I already knew. I sought out a second opinion and the news devastated me. Not only was my old puppy getting old (which I knew), her white blood count was 10 times over what it should be, which meant her body was fighting something much worse than old age and she would not win that fight against infection. The second opinion I sought out frightened me, but gave me the information I needed to know so that I knew what my dog was going through and what she would soon be facing. It would become harder for her to walk, because of the infection in her cervix. She would drink an unprecedented amount of water, because her thirst could not be quenched and her kidneys were failing. Her back legs would not be able to hold her tiny stature, again, because of her kidneys. She would urinate frequently, and evidently would begin to suffer greatly. Had I not sought out a second opinion, I would not have faced the reality of my pooches suffering or her condition. I would only recommend this veterinarians office to have nails clipped. Nothing more.

Ive visited this animal clinci and i was very impressed with the staff on how careing they are about doing whats right for animals and ensureing ever pet parent that whatever decision are made, It was the right one for the animal. ive been working in the pet industry for many years and trusted my affiliated vet clinic with my pet but when my dog got sick really bad i had to take him to get a second opinion with someone who wasnt affiliated with me or my company that i work for. sadly what i thought was wrong with my baby boy was correct i know there was little hope then for my pet. many thanks to doctor fish and his staff for trying to fix something that couldnt be fix. anyways i would recommend this place to anyone and if you ever have to get labs or xray done its done on the spot and you get the result in mins. THANKS DR.FISH , your a good animal lover and vet.........

Horrible place to take your pet for care. If your love your pet stay away from this place. I took my dog to have its ears crop. One ear was cut smaller than the other and one ear started bleeding really bad, so I call them to express my concern and their response was, bring him tomorrow we are closing now, needless to say I took my pet to another vet around me that same day, who re-stitch the ear that was bleeding, and kept my dog overnight. They could not believe how bad of a procedure this vet had done.This should have cost me 450 ended up costing me 700. Lesson learned. Do a better research and read reviews like this. Unlike the other reviewer that took his pet back to them to correct the chop ears, I did not do it, I did not want to cause my dog more pain than what they had cause. Lucky for the other guy they fix it without no further damage.

This place is the worse . First off I took my American bully there to get his ears crop. Dr fish did a horrible hack job . I notice after cleaning and taking scabs off my dogs ears that one ear was cut different from the other . I called the clinic and soon after took my dog back to him to correct his wrong doing . He told me nothing was wrong that my dogs ear is natrully like that. I said no way. He did the sergery again to correct his mistake . But then has the nerve after me spending $ 420 dollars to charge me a $90 dollar extra fee for anesthesia to my dog to sleep. Yea ok ! Very unprofessional and might I add rude.... If you care for your pets dont take them there piriod .

Last Saturday my dog got bit by the other dog and the closest vet office was Animal Clinic Of Woodhaven. The office was about to close, so the doctor refused to stitch up the dog. He glued the wound with surgical glue, saying that that will PROBABLY work. However the wound was deep and it opened up the next day. I brought the dog to my usual vet. I understood that a good, certified vet shouldnt have done that Woodhaven doctor did. I ended up paying twice and had a horrible experience. The vet who works there is an amateur, not caring monster.

The dr didnt seem to be much of a pet lover and didnt comfort us on the operation , so we pick my do up with no aftercare instruction , my dog became aggressive after the surgery .We took him to a different vet and found out that the doctor left some sutures inside my dog!! Worst vet ever stay away from this place!!!!

Dont come here if you value your money. They performed an X-ray when they already knew my cat swallowed something. The doctor already felt for it when examining her. This is just a trick to get $230. Then the meds were another $200. There are better vets you can go to in order to save money.

Weve been taking our pets here at least since I was born. Dr. Fish may come off as nasty or stoic, but hes a great doctor. Hes not for everyone, as hes not very comforting, but he knows what hes doing, and personally I think thats the most important thing.

I lived in the area for many years. My dog Sammy was one of the first dog seen by Dr. Fish. Very nice place and good staff. Now I take my 2 cats and always leave with a smile.

The Vet is Rude and the Staff is arrogant. The only thing I will be taking my dog here for is for a follow up on her biopsy.
