My vet has raised thier rates over 50% in the last two years. They have replace 4of the 5 vets, twice, in the last two years. I have dealt with two of the new vets with Sadie. I was unimpressed. They were gentle with her but I felt like I was in an "assembly line" I cost me over $600 to have her spayed and have 1 baby tooth pulled. They kept her over night. None of my other cats were kept over night when spayed or neutered.. Now I am seriously concidering changing vets. Am I on the right track, or just being slightly crazy?? anyone have any thoughts?

I feel like you do..I want to know my vet just like I want to know my own Doctor....I insist on seeing the same vet each time I go to the pet hospital I use for my cats,, and it has paid off...The vet and I know each other in the sense that he listens when I tell him something about one of my cats and if a follow up is needed he understands the problem more clearly...I feel more comfortable and I think the cats sense this and therefore they are more comfortable with him....I have a great vet now and am very happy with him....

Fortunately, I have a low cost 24/7 animal hospital close by.
I took my Big Max there last week for ear hematoma surgery. She spent the night and while she was under, they also spayed her.
My bill was $240! It would have been at least $600 if I had gone to my regular vet.
