Dayton Animal Clinic, LLC

I am new to the Dayton Animal Clinic but it already feels like home. The entire staff is knowledgeable, compassionate, and all about the relationship between DAC and their human customers and assorted pet patients. I had to deal with an emotional issue and Dr. Rhonda Herr was very kind and thorough in explaining my options. She let me know there are "no judgments" at their facility. This made my decision easier (and more focused on the welfare of my furry friend). I strongly recommend you become part of this family of intelligent and caring professionals. Pricing is very reasonable and no unnecessary testing is done.

I didn't feel there was any compassion when I took my dog here to have her put to sleep because her regular vet was closed. I walked in crying carrying my 50 pound dog and the first thing they asked is if I wanted to buy a paw print.............what (I'm losing a family member and you want me to purchase a paw print!). I was then asked for payment and told to have a seat in the waiting area, so I had to sit in the waiting area holding my dog, sobbing, where anyone that came in could see us. We also had to carry her out through the waiting room after she had passed, they did offer to carry her out but it was still through the waiting room where others could see her.

I have had several animals to this clinc for care in which was always satisfied with the care received. However the last few months with our cat has been a different story. Our cat had been self mutilating himself after issues following his neuter( the neuter was done somewhere else.) We took him here and was told to try this and that, okay few weeks goes by and he's still uncomfortable we take him back and they say well let's try this and Dr. Herr begins to explain that they would need to surgically remove the mass to give him relief. 2 days after this appointment he is scheduled for surgery. We paid for the pre antistatic blood work, the surgery etc. Which was approx 400 dollars but we didn't care we wanted our cat taken care of. The day of this "procedure" following it I'm told that he did great he was fine. My husband calls to get an actual update and is told on the phone we already gave one to your wife then she hangs up. We go to pick up our cat, and the procedure was never done. He was shaved and that was it.. when asked about this we was told by another vet that he was told to just wash him up and clean the area with soap..... so we paid 400 dollars for a surgery that didn't happen.. after paying 4 other vet visits for our cat we left that day and our cat had the same issue he did when we brought him there. Until this situation I would have recommended them and have praised this office in the past however this left us with a bad experience and a very expensive one at that EDIT: SO as you can see as stated they sedated him to "explore the wound" sedation was unnecessary if that were the case. They had "explored" the wound 2 or 3 other times before this. Also our cat is doing much better after receiving a much needed surgery. You all never even tried antibiotics, let it go on to where he actually did give himself an infection. Absurd.

It's a Wonderful Animal Clinic I have Heard with a very Caring Huge Hearted Veterinarian named Dr. Carter. My Sister brings her dog out here. He isn't Expensive like many Harrisonburg, Virginia Veterinarians are .. GOD Bless You Dr. Carter.
