    On Jan 21, 2023 I brought my dog ***** to Cherrelyn Animal Hospital at ********************************************************. I told **************************** that my dog had allergies and he asked if I had her allergy tested, I said no as I not only read but other Vets had told me these blood allergy tests are not accurate. But he assured me the company they use is accurate and hes had excellent results with some of his patients, so against my better judgement I paid a whopping $671 for the test.2 wks later, they call me and tell me the test came back inconclusive. Im like what? They have no idea why. I say this just confirms what I had already been told bout this test and I requested a refund back. They say sorry you cant get a refund you have to bring your dog back in to be retested. So I bring her back in and do blood test again. Another 4 wks go by and I hear nothing from them so I called them and Im like what happened to the test results? Theyre like we dont know, we'll check and call you back. They call back and theyre like well the lab changed they way they do tests and apparently your dogs not suppose to have been on meds. Im like you knew my dogs was on meds!! I request a refund again. Well only *************** can give you a refund. After calling 3 times he finally gets back to me and hes like I dont know whats going on with this co Spectrum, weve always used them and had great results. I'm like apparently NOT in my case. Again I request a refund. He says I have to speak to ***** for a refund. Talk to ***** and explain my dog been tested twice and I have no results! I just want a refund. He says well thats not going to happen. Hes like we did on our end of it. Im like I didnt pay the lab, I paid you guys so youre the ones that owe me a refund. He's like again you're not getting a refund and dont call this office again. Seriously, not only am I out $671 but I have no test results either.

    Brought my senior dog in as she was not eating and was losing weight. I left $500 with no answers, just she needs her teeth cleaned. no follow up calls and when I brought her a week later again only an X-ray of her heart another almost $500 and just told me to go to a cardiologist. And she lost even more weight in a week. Left with no answers again. I was told that bloodwork was fine, it was her teeth and she had a heart murmur. She had lost 7 lbs in 3 weeks and it just didnt sound right to me. Was given a medication that was $90 and when I looked it up online it was $45. This happened before on a medication she was given for vestibular disease. I could get this medicine at ******* for half what they charged me. I was told to go see a cardiologist to ok a teeth cleaning even tho she suffers from a neurological disorder. After almost a thousand dollars, something just felt off. I had records sent to another vet for a second opinion. She did an ultrasound as the bloodwork had a couple high levels and found intestinal lymphoma per the ultrasound, And told me she would not put a dog that had a neurological disorder under anesthesia as it could make it worse and the teeth were not the most important issue. Please do your research on prices and read reviews. Unfortunately I did not.
