Emergency Vet Visit
Recently one of my dogs ingested Coffee grounds and I found out they are toxic for dogs. I had reached out to my vet and they had us watch him. As he seemed not to get better we were advised to call Animal Poison Control who advised us to take him to the vet. Unfortunately, this was on a Saturday and we had to take him to the emergency vet. The only one we had in town was Blue Pearl. We had contacted them and headed in. They where upfront and friendly and advised us that they would advise of all costs along the way before doing anything. They took him back after a short wait they came in and advised they needed to take X-rays and the cost. After we waited for over an hour and a half before they came in and advised that he was going to be ok and what we needed to do. The vet showed the x-rays and advised they were going to give him a shot and some fluids. We waited for them to bring him out so we could check out. This is the only real issue I had because at this point we had been advised of the $160 exam fee and $300 toward x-rays, but when we checked out the cost was $900 + . I would have paid because my dogs are life I was just a little surprised that we had gone from around $500 to over $900. It would have been nice just to be told in advance but other than that the staff was friendly and professional they had drinks and snacks to help with the long wait time. Overall I would recommend Blue Pearl Vets if you need your animals looked after in an emergency.
