I was sad to see the Williams retire, but I thought I'd try the new Dr. Ratliff. I took in a trapped feral female cat for a spay and shots. Warning!! He spayed her from her side removing only her ovaries and leaving her uterus. A faster and cheaper procedure that he never told me about . I paid plenty for this substandard approach. I learned this weeks later after releasing her and have never seen her again. She probably developed an infected uterus and died somewhere. Don't let this happen to your cat. I'll never return.

I am just as likely to write good things about companies as bad, but here goes a negative one...
/rant on
Maybe Chimney Rock Animal Hospital can admin their posts on their page, but they cannot stop me from posting here.
When this was run by my veterinarian, Dr. Allen Williams and his wife, Kathy, this was by far the best I'd ever been with. They really showed how they cared, never seemed in a rush, and ALWAYS remembered you and your babies. But, unfortunately, Dr. Williams retired and sold his business.
This new vet, Dr. Ratliff...OMG I just cannot spout enough about how much aggravation and crap he's caused me and my dogs. It started out with me trying to refill the heartworm meds. I didn't know that Dr. Williams had retired at the time, and days kept going by with no response from them. At first it started out with the online company trying to fax to the wrong number so, ok, that was their fault.
But then it turned into a back-and-forth, until finally this new guy called me to tell me he wouldn't renew Gypsy's meds because they didn't show a test in their records. I would have been ok with that, except for the way he spoke about it. First he went on about how Dr. Williams must have been neglectful for not having their annual test (umm, you don't speak bad about your predecessor). Then there was the "well, you shouldn't be giving Axel Novox, you should try my laser treatment for his pain; I don't know why that was even prescribed". Umm...again...you obviously didn't look at his history and known what was going on" (this was about a week before his surgery). Then there were insinuations about how I took care of my dogs, especially when I did go in and take Gypsy for a test ("well, you get what you pay for with those online companies" (third umm...its Iverhart, I don't think that changes whether I buy your overinflated prices or from an online company") which then turned in to "you must not be giving your dogs their heartworm meds because she's heartworm positive". Next to final "ummm"...If you had looked at when I got her, you idiot, you would have seen that more than likely they were in incubation period when the shelter got her so it didn't show up.
Now, I do need to point out that he HIMSELF had told me that he approved the meds for Axel and Kodo. Guess what - I've been fighting to get Kodo's ever since (fortunately I could split the box with Kodo and Axel to keep him covered in the meantime).
Now today, trying yet again to get Kodo's meds, they still came up declined. So I called up there...NOW his office is saying that because I transferred his records they won't do anything.
Oh! And how could I forget my favorite part of the story where first the vet tech tells my dog "hopefully I'll get it on the first try" when she's getting ready to draw Gypsy's blood (WTF?) and then prances around the back hallway going on and on about how happy she was that she finally did it. Unprofessional much?
