I'm not one to post reviews but had to write one about the exceptional treatment our young cat received from the Animal Dental Clinic! One day she yawned, and I noticed a growth in her mouth that looked suspicious. Although she was acting fine, I thought it was best to take her in to her normal vet to get it checked out. Her regular vet said it was a "classic case of stomatitis" and that he recommended tooth extraction. Given that she was only 13 months old and wasn't having any of the typical symptoms of stomatitis (and the major recommendation of tooth extraction), I decided to take her into an expert for a second opinion. I am so glad I took her in to see Dr. Hall! He immediately disagreed about the stomatitis diagnosis and said that it was an oral mass. Tooth extraction would have been useless. She had the mass removed by Dr. Hall three weeks ago and we are so happy it wasn't cancerous. You can tell that Dr. Hall genuinely cares about animals. He is very patient and makes sure that he has answered every question you might have. I was so impressed that when I picked her up from surgery, Kim at the front desk took the time to explain all the details of surgery, what to expect while our cat recovered, and even handed me a good deal of papers with everything written down, pictures from the surgery, and copies of the dental x-rays they took. Dr. Hall even called the next day to make sure she was feeling okay and that we didn't have any concerns. About a week later, he even called us with the results from pathology. It may be pricey going to the Animal Dental Clinic, but things get done correctly the first time. I regret taking our cat to our regular vet and the money we spent on getting useless tests done. I am so glad we didn't pay the $800+ that we were being quoted for her to get tooth extraction, and then still would have had to get the mass taken care of when it didn't resolve. My recommendation, if it deals with the mouth, just take your pet to an expert! It's so worth it!
