Veterinary clinic "Aesculapius"

Aqua

I went to this clinic to treat a sick dog. Our dog is an ordinary, watchdog, most likely "ate" poisonous pads from rodents, was in very poor condition, exhausted, refused food, water, lost a lot of weight. At the clinic he was diagnosed with anemia, internal bleeding, most likely due to severe poisoning. Veterinarian Alexander prescribed the drug Kanavit for injection, in the clinic at that time the drug was not available, but I was sent to the nearest pharmacy Plantain to buy medicine. 1 ampoule every 12 hours for a week. I liked the fact that I was not promised a cure for the dog, warned that the chances are 50 to 50, that the dog may refuse to eat in the future and will have to be fed from a syringe. I can appreciate the positive attitude of the clinic staff towards animals, the desire to help with sincere care for the firm 5. Also, the prices in the clinic are quite adequate - examination, blood test, all this cost about 240-270 UAH (plus in my absence, the dog tried to feed a little, as far as he could eat at that time). It is extremely nice that thanks to the correctly prescribed treatment, our dog has fully recovered and in just 3 days has become as active, mobile as he was before. It is very important to give such domestic dogs a chance, because they are very susceptible to treatment. Also a big THANK YOU to Alexei for helping to save the life of our dog.

I describe my experience. The staff of the clinic is really friendly, but unfortunately I can't note the competence in the context of the surgeon at doctor Nazar. They brought a kitten with rectal prolapse, said the necessary operation (there was a conversation about the cost - if just hemming + anesthesia - 1400 somewhere, if in the worst case scenario, ie hemming from the middle to the abdomen - 4000, the price for hospital and other procedures was not announced. .) we agreed, left the kitten in the clinic, called us in less than half an hour and said that the blood test was ready (which immediately seemed strange, because somehow too fast, so I'm not surprised if they were confused - why I think I'll describe below) They said that the tests are extremely bad in all respects (hemoglobin 48, elevated white blood cells, complete inflammatory process ..) and against the background of such tests - the fallen intestine is not the worst, and surgery with such tests is impossible because the patient may not recover from anesthesia. We asked: what to do? At first they said that a blood transfusion is possible, respectively, you need to pass a blood group test, find a donor .. but later suggested the following actions: to find out the etymology of such tests and pass the test for infection, sounds reasonable, but .. Passed the analysis, he was ready in 2 days, and as if sown panleukopenia (although it was strange, because the cat had no manifestations, despite the fact that before he stayed with us for 2 weeks with an unhappy gut, and stayed with it active and with preserved appetite) We did not want to procrastinate, and as soon as possible to begin at least some treatment until necrosis began, but that day the doctor was busy, and called back the next to say (attention!) "1.panleukopenia is not treated. 2.to do surgery in such a state is impossible and there is no point "and offered to live out his cat, or put to sleep .. I'm sorry, but I ahu% la .. That is, we paid UAH 2,600 without even starting treatment to hear this. (This should be warned in advance, not every average family can afford to allocate from the budget indefinite amounts for a veterinarian, it is worth clarifying) After hearing, I turned to another veterinarian, who on the same day made a suture with a purse string suture (ie without interfering with the abdomen) under a sleeping pill, also did a repeat blood test - and bingo, he was normal (except for hemoglobin, he was 88, the norm from 100) the time interval between tests is three days, is such a difference possible ?? Also passed the repeated analysis for panleukopenia - and it wasn't found (by the way in the same Kiev laboratory) From the funny facts: when we found this kitten it looked like a female (although we noticed that the genitals were not very similar to the female, but thought that maybe some inflammatory process through the intestine) in Aesculapius we were also recorded as a female, only after surgery another vet said that we actually have a boy) 2 weeks have passed since then, the cat is alive and well thanks to another veterinarian) Well, and another disadvantage is the price. Here they are above average, but the problem is even a little different - they tend not to warn about the final amount (for example: say analysis 150 UAH, but in fact analysis 150, blood sampling another 50, blood transportation another 150, material collection and 20 more points after which the final amount is different) + constant steaming of Royal Cannin feed because they are their partners, but that's it. Somehow, draw your own conclusions) Thanks for your attention)

The doctor is friendly (too much). Prices are set on an equal footing, the cost is announced one by phone, then add a bunch of services that you can do without (refused)

Once I am convinced that the Aesculapius Clinic is the best, so I definitely recommend it to everyone who cares about their pets. Professionals !!! It provides a wide range of services and has all the necessary equipment. People who really love their job work here. And the most important thing is the attitude to animals and their owners. Everyone will tell, give answers to all 120 (or even more) questions, very attentive and reliable. Thank you for your devotion. And special thanks to doctor Alexey for consultation and the trainee (I'm sorry I didn't remember the name) for ultrasound.
