Dr. June came highly recommended when we moved here, and I was very impressed with her and her care of my senior dog, who has quite a medical history. The three times I was there, twice with her and once with Dr. Longmire, I was satisfied with the care given my dog.
Dr. June and her staff are the best!
Unless you've actually taken your pet to EVERY vet in the Valley, don't make such a dramatic claim as the one below...I've had really great experiences at the Animal Hospital of Stuarts Draft. Last year, my mom had to put down her dog that she had for almost ten years. Dr. June was immensely helpful, offered my mom several options in the way of treatment, etc, and was a great comfort to my mom and I when we were making the difficult decision to have the dog put down. She took the time to explain what she felt the best course of action was, what she felt would be the most humane, and why. The staff was very helpful and even sent my mom a card, offering their condolences. This may be a small-town business, but sometimes that can definitely be a good thing.
We started taking our pets here many years ago. We have seen a definite decline in the personal service we received but continued to go there out of loyalty and habit. We continued to hear more complaints throughout the community but didn’t have enough sense to find another vet, despite several disappointing diagnosis and visits. But this time has pissed me off enough to switch and warn others. We have brought our Bassett here for 4 years and recently brought her in to find the cause of a labored breathing problem. The first visit she was given allergy tabs and dismissed. When I brought her back they at least did X-rays and a scope and diagnosed laryngitis. As her condition worsened I called back. One wouldn’t come to the phone and the other offered no new help. He was going to call “but forgot”. I was forced to try somewhere else, cedar crest. The day after I took her in there she was bleeding out of her mouth and stool and started to stumble. I frantically called both vets, at 4:00 pm. I was told by Dr Cohrons receptionist that they may be able to see me around quarter till 6:00. Really?!? I called Cedar crest who told me to rush her in. Dr cohrons is literally 2 minutes away. Cedar crest is 13. Abby died in my arms right after I got to cedar crest but was unable to resuscitate because it had been over 3 minutes. Do the math. They may have been cold, unfeeling and dismissed me and Abby but they will never be so horrible to another of my pets.
I found this very upsetting. First, when my dog has a problem, I've never had to wait 8 days to be seen. Secondly, I do not understand how the vet even knows what to look for without speaking with me and getting information. Thirdly, I want to know what is causing the problem, and what our options are, especially since she is 13 years old, and this could be the beginning of the end for her. How can this occur without meeting with me?
Dr. June is THE BEST! She is an both an exceptional person and vet!!
I contacted another veterinarian's office who could see my dog, even as a new patient, the following day. When I called Animal Hospital of Stuarts Draft to cancel the "drop off", and asked them to fax the records to the new vet's office, no one even asked why. I still think Dr. June is wonderful, but I am upset over the delay in care and seeming lack of concern for my furbaby.
However, this time when I called for an appointment because my dog was having some problems, it was 8 days before I could get in, and then it was to be a "drop off". I didn't understand why it would be so long, but figured one of the vets must be out of town or something. My dog developed some new symptoms in the meantime, and when they called two days in advance to confirm, I asked why it had to be a "drop off". I was told he didn't have any appointments open for two weeks, and this would be the only way to see my dog.
