Cadillac Vet Clinic

I don’t write reviews unless I feel very strongly about something. I want to share my story and this is just my opinion and experience. I’ve been taking care of stray kittens outside-all healthy and good and one morning I see one in bad condition so I rushed him to hope vet. He had hyperthermia because it rained the night before and he must of got wet and temperature dropped. Right when I walked in the woman at the front was talking prices which I do understand, they are a business and need to make money. Nothing in life is free. They were talking about saving him but it would cost me $200-$400 to start off with and later more. I told them I don’t have that money and this wasn’t even my kitten but I will raise money and pay them. (I’ve done that for other rescues before) well right when I said I don’t have money the girl asked me if I want to sign off my rights for the kitten to them and went into the room to tell the other lady..then that lady walked out and grabbed some medicine (a needle and I believe it was to euthanize) and 2 minutes later came out with the kitten and said he passed. I am not 100% sure but I feel 99% that’s what they did. Right when I said I don’t have money and that they can keep the kitten they decided to euthanize it instead of help him. If I knew this was going to happen, I would of took him home and let him try to fight for his life and try to help him myself. He fought the whole night and managed to stay alive but 5 minutes at the vet and 2 minutes after I said I don’t have money, he dies. It all didn’t click until I got in the car and was driving home and I started to put the pieces together. I will never trust a vet again because of this experience. I thought vets would want to save animals..I understand they need to be paid but this is a life we are talking about. I would of raised money and paid them. The fact that I drove him there and pretty much sentenced his death is getting me so depressed the last few days. Can’t stop thinking about the whole situation. Rip little one Again I do want to say that this is just my opinion and experience. This is what I believe happened but I do not have proof

I use to love coming here when it was Hope Vet because of the Faulkner’s. I never minded the wait because they were great with all my animals over the years. However, I was told today that they retired and the other veterinarian that was there with the Faulkner's is gone also Dr. McKnight. They have a new owner and new prices, which are high compared to a lot of other veterinarians. Unfortunately won’t be coming here again with my animals.

I was so impressed with the care our Teddy received by Dr. Laura Kohrt. She was thoughtful and went above and beyond to help our pup and saw him at the last moment on a Saturday, and stayed late after closing to do it. The best vet experience I have ever had and the price was very reasonable.

Wonderful experience. Dr. Faulkner took wonderful care of our baby Shiner, before & after knee surgery. This surgery and his laser aftercare made a work of difference in Shiners quality of life. Dr. McKnight is also amazing. He treated our other big guy Alfie for what seemed like weekly for several months. We eventually had to make a hard decision. Which was made easier by the staff. We recommend Hope to everyone we know!
